Abstract: The present invention a device for dispensing a composition, comprising: i) a dispensing head (1) intended to be fitted on a container that contains said composition, comprising: a body (3) that is open at its two opposite axial ends, an engaging part (10) that is open at its two opposite axial ends, at least partially defining at least one dispensing orifice (12), the cross section of the dispensing orifice being between 0.02 mm2 and 0.5 mm2, ii) the anhydrous composition comprising, in particular in a physiologically acceptable medium: a) at least one oily phase comprising at least one volatile hydrocarbon-based oil, and b) at least one clay, and c) at least one deodorant active agent, and d) at least one propellant. The present invention also relates to a method for the cosmetic treatment of body odor and optionally of human perspiration, which consists in applying to the surface of a keratin material a composition as defined above by means of the dispensing device defined above.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a cosmetic method intended in particular to improve the appearance of the skin and/or hair comprising the simultaneous and/or sequential administration: a) of at least one compound bioconvertible by lipase; and b) of at least one light radiation exhibiting at least one predominant wavelength which activates lipase. In particular, the said light radiation according to the invention exhibits (emits) at least one predominant wavelength which activates lipase ranging from 400 to 510 nm, preferably from 430 to 500 nm, and is preferably used at a dose ranging from 0.01 to 200 J/cm2, preferably from 0.1 to 30 J/cm2, more preferably from 1 to 30 J/cm2, indeed even from 5 to 30 J/cm2.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition comprising, in a physiologically acceptable medium, at least one copolymer of a styrene monomer and of an ethylenically unsaturated dicarboxylic acid and at least one anti-seborrhoeic active agent.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composition containing, in a physiologically acceptable medium, (a) at least one hydroxylated diphenylmethane compound of formula (I) where formula variables are defined in the body of the application and claims and (b) at least one ingredient promoting the solubilization, stabilization and/or activity of the hydroxylated diphenylmethane compound of formula (I). The invention also relates to a cosmetic method for caring for or making up the skin, comprising the topical application of such a composition to the skin.

Abstract: A composition comprising, in a physiologically acceptable medium, at least one sapogenin and a solubilizing system comprising: (a) at least one non-emulsifying ester of a fatty acid and/or of a fatty alcohol whose hydrocarbon-based chain contains at least 8 carbon atoms, or a plant oil, and (b) at least one branched fatty alcohol whose hydrocarbon-based chain contains at least 8 carbon atoms and/or at least one lipophilic UV screening agent. The solubilizing system according to the invention makes it possible to dissolve a sufficient amount of sapogenin, without recrystallization, for a period of time which is acceptable for cosmetic or dermatological use.

Abstract: The invention concerns a composition suitable for topical application to the skin containing at least one hydroxystilbene and at least one polyol in weight ratio of polyol to hydroxystilbene of at least 150/1.

Abstract: A composition containing at least one lipophilic sunscreen and at least one bicyclic aromatic compound represented by formula (I): or a salt or chiral analogue of such a compound, where the structural variables R1, Ar, X, R2 Y and X are defined herein, and at least one lipophilic sunscreen.

Abstract: A composition comprising, in a physiologically acceptable medium, at least one sapogenin and a solubilizing system comprising: (a) at least one non-emulsifying ester of a fatty acid and/or of a fatty alcohol whose hydrocarbon-based chain contains at least 8 carbon atoms, or a plant oil, and (b) at least one branched fatty alcohol whose hydrocarbon-based chain contains at least 8 carbon atoms and/or at least one lipophilic UV screening agent. The solubilizing system according to the invention makes it possible to dissolve a sufficient amount of sapogenin, without recrystallization, for a period of time which is acceptable for cosmetic or dermatological use.

Abstract: A composition including at least one steroid chosen from DHEA and/or a biological precursor and/or a chemical or metabolic derivative of the latter, characterized in that it additionally comprises at least one 2-alkylalkanol comprising from 12 to 36 carbon atoms or an ester of such an alcohol. The invention also relates to the cosmetic and dermatological uses of this composition, in particular for preventing or treating chronological or actinic ageing and canities.
