Abstract: A physiologically acceptable composition containing at least one liquid fatty phase which comprises at least one structuring polymer having a polymer skeleton which comprises at least one hydrocarbon-based repeating unit comprising at least one hetero atom; and at least one inert filler. Said polymer is in particular a polyamide. This composition is more specifically an anhydrous lip composition or an anhydrous foundation.

Abstract: Liquid cosmetic composition in the form of an emulsion comprising at least two distinct phases and containing at least one photochromic colouring agent and at least one non-photochromic colouring matter, characterized in that the photochromic colouring agent(s) and the non-photochromic colouring matter(s) are located in separate phases of the emulsion.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composition comprising, in a physiologically acceptable medium, goniochromatic pigments exhibiting a colour effect and an additional colouring agent, the colour effect of the composition having a natural look.

Abstract: The present invention relates to lamellar phase compositions comprising dned surfactant systems and a structurant selected from the group consisting of liquid fatty acids liquid alcohols and derivatives thereof which structurant is responsible for inducing the lamellar phrase.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel structuring system comprising both xanthan gum and cross-linked polyacrylic acid polymer which combination unexpectedly has been found to provide enhanced stability for large size benefit agent droplets in an amphoteric/anionic surfactant system relative to use of either structurant alone.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of enhancing low temperature stability of lamellar structured liquid cleansing compositions comprising 5% to 50% of a surfactant system comprising (a) anionic or mixture of anionics and (b) an amphoteric and/or zwifterionic surfactant, wherein said method comprises selecting component (b) such that alkalimetal alkylamphoacetate comprises greater than 25% to 90% of said component (b).

Abstract: The present invention relates to lamellar phase compositions comprising defined surfactant systems and a structurant selected from the group consisting of liquid fatty acids liquid alcohols and derivatives thereof which structurant is responsible for inducing the lamellar phrase. The invention also relates to a method of inducing said lamellar phase in such compositions by adding the defined structurant.

Abstract: In one embodiment the present invention relates to a personal bath or shower gel system comprising (A) a light weight polymeric meshed sponge and (B) a liquid cleanser comprising (1) an effective amount of surfactants(s) and (2) a deodorant perfume. In a second embodiment, the invention relates to a method for enhancing delivery/dispersion of deodorant perfume on skin or substrate by either applying liquid to sponge and applying sponge to substrate and/or applying liquid to skin/substrate and then rubbing skin/substrate with said sponge.
