Claims12
A cosmetic composition for temporarily shaping keratinic fibers, comprising:
- a vinylpyrrolidone homopolymer, wherein the vinylpyrrolidone homopolymer has an intrinsic viscosity (K) value of from about 90.0c to about 98.0c (at 1% m/V in water), and wherein the vinylpyrrolidone homopolymer is present in the cosmetic composition at a concentration of about 1 weight percent, based on a total weight of the cosmetic composition;
- and
- a crosslinked acrylate copolymer present in the cosmetic composition at a concentration of about 0.5 weight percent, based on the total weight of the cosmetic composition, and wherein the crosslinked acrylate copolymer comprises at least one of the following structural units (b-1) and (b-2),
- where
- R1 stands for a hydrogen atom or a methyl group,
- R3 stands for a (C8-C30) alkyl group,
- M+ stands for a physiologically acceptable cation, and
- x stands for an integer from 5 to 35, and wherein the crosslinked acrylate copolymer has the INCI name Acrylates/Ceteareth-20 Methacrylate Crosspolymer.
