Abstract: The application relates to an emulsifying composition, in particular for cosmetic use, allowing an oil-in-water emulsion (O/W) to be obtained, the emulsion comprising at least one cyclodextrin and at least one O/W emulsifier of natural origin with a hydrophilic-lipophilic balance value (HLB) of more than 8. The O/W emulsifier of natural origin can be selected from alkyl polyglucosides, mixtures of at least one alkyl polyglucoside and at least one fatty alcohol, and non-ethoxylated polyol fatty esters. The application also relates to a composition of the Pickering emulsion type, in particular for cosmetic use, containing the emulsifying composition according to the invention, and to the process for preparing such a composition of the O/W Pickering emulsion type, in particular at low temperatures.

Abstract: The object of the present application is a solid composition for use in cosmetics, comprising at least one modified starch carrying at least one hydrophobic and/or amphiphilic functional group, at least one modified starch carrying at least one hydrophilic functional group, at least one gum of microbial or fungal origin, and at least two plant-based gums. Such a composition has emulsifying and texturing properties.

Abstract: The present application pertains to the field of cosmetics, more specifically the field of topical care of bad odors, by the action of a bactericidal and/or bacteriostatic topical composition, and of capturing odors. The topical composition according to the invention comprises at least one cyclodextrin, a 1,4-3, 6-dianhydrohexitol and/or a 1,4-3, 6-dianhydrohexitol derivative. It can be useful for the oral sphere, but also for areas of the skin where bad odors may develop due to microbial activity, namely the underarms, crotch and feet. Preferably, the topical composition of the invention is used for treating the oral sphere, most preferably for treating halitosis.

Abstract: The invention relates to the field of cosmetics, in particular oil-in-water emulsions or water-in-oil emulsions, comprising a sensory agent having a “cushion” and a softness effect. The invention relates to the non-therapeutic cosmetic use of a carboxyalkylated granular starch in an oil-in-water or a water-in-oil emulsion as a sensory agent having a “cushion” effect and a softness effect. A cream prepared according to this use has a whipped cream texture.

Abstract: Cosmetic compositions comprising at least one cyclodextrin which is at least partially present in the form of solid particles dispersed in a physiologically acceptable medium, that the cyclodextrin particles have a volume average size d(4,3), of less than or equal to 20 ?m, more preferentially less than or equal to 12 ?m, and most preferentially less than or equal to 8 ?m, and a size distribution by volume, of which the characteristic diameters d(10), d(50) and d(90) are such that: a. the diameter d(10) is less than or equal to 5.0 ?m, preferentially less than or equal to 2.5 ?m, b. and the diameter d(50) is less than or equal to 15.0 ?m, preferentially less than or equal to 10.0 ?m, c. and the diameter d(90) is less than or equal to 30.0 ?m, preferentially less than or equal to 25.0 ?m.
