Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition intended for protecting the skin and/or hair against ultraviolet radiation, characterized by the fact that it comprises, in a cosmetically acceptable support containing at least one aqueous phase, at least: (a) a photoprotective system capable of screening out UV radiation; (b) at least one gelling starch that is not modified by a chemical or physical process; and (c) polyamide particles, in particular polyamide PA-12 or polyamide PA-6 particles.

Abstract: Enhanced SPF and/or reduced fluffing fluid compositions for photoprotecting the skin and/or the hair against the damaging effects of ultraviolet radiation, contain: (a) at least one photoprotective system capable of screening out UV radiation; and (b) at least one ester-terminated poly(ester amide) (ETPEA) polymer, formulated into (c) a topically applicable, cosmetically acceptable aqueous support therefor; the subject aqueous compositions are advantageously vaporizable, especially in the form of sprays, confined within a pressurization device.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an anhydrous fluid composition comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable medium: a) at least one hydrocarbon oil and b) at least one lipophilic organic UV screening agent and c) at least one linear C1-C3 monoalcohol, in particular ethanol, and d) at least one lipophilic polyamide polycondensate. The present invention also relates to the use of the said composition in the manufacture of products for the cosmetic treatment of the skin, nails, hair, eyelashes, eyebrows and/or scalp, in particular care products, sun protection products, makeup products or scenting products.
