Abstract: The use of oxazolidinone derivatives in a composition for topical application, especially a cosmetic or dermatological composition, in particular as anti-penetrating agents. These derivatives make it possible especially to prevent the penetration of active agents which are compatible with the skin, the hair and/or mucous membranes, and thus to reduce, or even eliminate altogether, the side effects of these active agents without decreasing their efficacy. Thus, the cosmetic or dermatological compositions containing such active agents make it possible to soften the skin, mucous membranes and the hair.

Abstract: The use, in a topical cosmetic composition, or for the manufacture of a topical dermatological composition, intended for depigmenting and/or bleaching human skin, body hair or head hair, of at least one compound comprising a phenyloxime fragment.
