Publication number: 20080081022Abstract: Film-forming and cosmetic compositions containing a combination of certain polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) and non-POSS silicone resins are described, the combination providing improved wear and/or pliability properties over previous silicone resin containing compositions. Typically, the advantageous combinations will be formulated in a cosmetic composition that contains at least one solvent, and, preferably, a colorant, such as a pigment. Other cosmetic ingredients known to those of skill in the art can also be combined therewith, depending on the desired product, such as a foundation, mascara, lip coating (lip stick, lip gloss, lip pencil and the like), nail coating and the like. Methods of making cosmetic compositions including combinations of a POSS and non-POSS silicone resin providing the advantageous properties are also described.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 12, 2005Publication date: April 3, 2008Applicant: L'OREALInventors: Weih Hong Yu, Murat Quadir
