Abstract: The invention relates to poly(oligo(ethylene glycol) methacrylate) microgels, to the process for preparing same and the uses thereof in various fields of application such as optics, electronics, pharmacy and cosmetics. These microgels have the advantage of being monodisperse, pH-responsive and temperature-responsive. They can carry magnetic nanoparticles or biologically active molecules. These microgels may also form transparent films, which have novel optical and electromechanical properties.

Abstract: Device for packaging and applying a liquid composition comprising solid particles that are sensitive to a magnetic field, comprising a container intended to contain the composition; an applicator that is able to be mounted on the container and comprises a stem and an applicator head secured to the stem, the stem and the head being designed to be inserted into the container when the applicator is mounted on the container; and a stem cleaning member disposed in the container. The stem comprises a magnetic part that is able to generate a magnetic field suitable for attracting and keeping some of the solid particles on the stem, in a rest position, the magnetic part extending over a part of a region of the stem that extends between the head and the cleaning member when the applicator is mounted on the container.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of cosmetic care that consists of applying, on at least one area of the body, a cosmetic composition containing an elastic mixture consisting of at least one starch, at least one polymer selected from polyvinyl alcohols, vinylpyrrolidone polymers and copolymers and latex, at least one polyol, and optionally water. The mixture imparts elasticity to the cosmetic product applied on the surface of the skin naturally subjected to deformations, such as the changes of facial expression, pressure of the fingers by contact, or contact with clothing.

Abstract: Container for receiving a composition, a device including such a container, a use and a method for applying the composition contained in such a container on the nails, the container comprising a side wall that extends along a central axis between a bottom and an opening, the side wall presenting a first outside constriction shaped to receive two adjacent fingers, other than the thumb, of a first hand of a user. The side wall also includes a second outside constriction shaped to receive two adjacent fingers, other than the thumb of a second hand of the same user, the second constriction being spaced apart from the first constriction along the central axis.
