Cosmetic compositions (e.g., foundation, primer, eye shadow or other skin composition) capable of forming a multilayer structure after application to a keratinous material are provided, as well as methods of using same. Certain compositions comprise at least two immiscible components: Component A which comprises about 0.01% to 60% by weight with respect to the total weight of the composition of at least one silicone- and/or hydrocarbon-containing film forming agent having at least one glass transition temperature lower than normal human body temperature; and Component B which comprises about 0.01% to 90% by weight with respect to the total weight of the composition of one or more silicone compounds in amounts sufficient to achieve a viscosity of about 1,000 cSt to 2,000,000 cSt, wherein the weight ratio of the silicone- and/or hydrocarbon-containing film forming agent(s) in Component A to silicone compound(s) in Component B is from about 1:50 to 1.5:1.
