  • Patent number: 10463604
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for protecting the skin against UV rays, using at least two cosmetic skincare and/or make-up compositions, comprising: the application, to at least part of the skin of the body or face, of at least a first layer of a first cosmetic composition comprising an oil phase and, optionally, an aqueous phase, followed by the application, on said first layer, of at least a second layer of a second anhydrous composition comprising at least 70 wt.-% powders selected from among fillers and pigments, and an oil phase, said method being characterized in that at least one of the two compositions contains at least one UV filter, preferably a liposoluble UV filter. The liposoluble UV filter is preferably in the second composition. The first composition is a make-up foundation or skincare base. The second composition is advantageously a loose or compact powder.

  • Publication number: 20190254952
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a perfuming eau de toilette or eau de parfum composition comprising a high proportion of alcohol, for direct application on the skin or hair by spraying. More specifically, it relates to a sprayable perfume composition having excellent properties such as persistence of the olfactory note once applied on the skin. The composition is transparent and contains ethanol, 0 to 30% by weight of water, 3 to 40% by weight of a perfume concentrate and a copolymer of vinylpyrrolidone and vinyl acetate.

  • Patent number: 10357439
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for protecting the skin against UV rays, using two cosmetic compositions for protecting against UV rays, the sun protection indices of which are different from each other, this method consisting in applying to the skin, before or during exposure to sunlight, a first composition having a certain sun protection index, and then in applying, during exposure to sunlight, onto the residual deposit of the first composition, the second cosmetic composition having a sun protection index lower than that of the first composition. This method advantageously makes it possible to not reapply the first composition, but to use a second product that is much more pleasant to use, while at the same time obtaining the level of protection afforded by the deposit of the initial first composition.

  • Patent number: 9757325
    Abstract: A method for protecting the skin against UV rays uses at least two cosmetic skincare and/or make-up compositions, and comprises applying a first layer of a first cosmetic composition comprising an oil phase and, optionally, an aqueous phase, followed by applying, on the first layer, a second layer of a second anhydrous composition comprising at least 70 wt.-% powders selected from among fillers and pigments, and an oil phase. At least one of the two compositions contains at least one UV filter, preferably a liposoluble UV filter. The first composition may be a make-up foundation or skincare base.

  • Patent number: 9750673
    Abstract: The subject of the invention is the use of an extract of Stevia in combination with a salt, for masking the bitterness of bitter compounds in cosmetic or dermatological compositions. This mixture of sweetener with a second gustatory agent makes it possible to mask the bitterness of the compound permanently without changing the nature of the fragrance or the colour of the composition.

  • Patent number: 9730880
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a cosmetic or dermatological composition containing a continuous aqueous phase in which are dispersed vesicles based on at least one alkyl polypentoside, and also comprising at least one alcohol and at least one surfactant. More precisely, the cosmetic or dermatological composition comprises at least one cosmetic or dermatological active agent and at least one continuous aqueous phase in which are dispersed vesicles, said vesicles comprising at least one alkyl polypentoside obtained by reaction of a pentose and of at least a first and a second fatty alcohol comprising a different number of carbon atoms ranging from 10 to 12, said polypentoside having an average polymerization degree of less than or equal to 2, and said composition also comprising at least one surfactant having a HLB of less than 10, and at least one alcohol containing from 1 to 5 carbon atoms.
