Abstract: The invention relates to the use of a salicylic acid derivative salified with a base, as a stabilizer for an oil-in-water emulsion. This salified derivative has the same properties as its acidic homologue, while at the same time having a less irritating nature. This salified derivative is, in particular, an n-alkanoyl-5-salicylic acid salified with an amphoteric base such as lysine or arginine. The present compositions are more especially intended for the cosmetic and dermatological fields.
