Abstract: Disclosed is a method for improving the sensorial and/or aesthetic properties of an oil-in-water type emulsion for topical application, the method including an effective quantity of a mixture of saturated cyclic or acyclic, linear or branched hydrocarbons of which at least 95% by weight have between fifteen and nineteen carbon atoms. Also disclosed is a new sun-cream emulsion and the use of same to protect the skin.

Abstract: A composition and process of preparation of emulsifier agents based on an alkylpolyglycoside structure with a length of alkyl chain having from 6 to 12 carbon atoms to be used. The resulting emulsions exhibit an excellent dispersion of the fillers and/or pigments without it being necessary to add coemulsifier or dispersant. The emulsifier makes it possible, by itself alone, to prevent the reagglomeration of the fillers and/or pigments.

Abstract: An emulsifying composition and process, that includes: a) from about 10 to about 90% by weight of arachidyl or behenyl alcohol; b) from about 10 to about 90% by weight of the corresponding phosphoric ester of arachidyl or behenyl alcohol; and c) up to about 20% by weight of at least one alkylpolyglycoside.

Abstract: A composition, method of preparation1 and use to enhance the cosmetic feel of oil-in-water emulsions based upon the addition to the oil in water emulsion of one or more alkylpolyxylosides represented by formula: R—O—(X)p, wherein p is a decimal number between 1 and 5, wherein X is a xylose residue, and wherein R is a branched alkyl radical represented by the formula: CH(CnH2n+1)(CmH2m+1)—CH2— wherein m is an integer between 6 and 12, n is an integer between 8 and 16, and the sum of m+n is in the range of from about 14 to 26.
