Non-pulverulent antisun composition comprising a polar oil phase and hydrophobic silica aerogel particles

A non-pulverulent antisun composition consisting essentially of, in a cosmetically acceptable medium:

• a) at least one oil phase containing:
• (i) at least one non-volatile polar hydrocarbon-based oil in an amount of 10% to 90% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition, wherein the non-volatile hydrocarbon-based polar oil is chosen from caprylic/capric acid triglycerides, C12-C15 alkyl benzoates, diisopropyl sebacate, isopropyl lauroyl sarcosinate, dicaprylyl carbonate, the 2-phenylethyl ester of benzoic acid, butyloctyl salicylate, octyldodecanol, 2-octyldodecyl neopentanoate, dicaprylyl ether, isocetyl stearate, isodecyl neopentanoate, isononyl isononate, isopropyl myristate, isopropyl palmitate, isostearyl behenate, myristyl myristate, octyl palmitate and tridecyl trimellitate, and mixtures thereof;
• b) 5% to 25% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition of at least one organic lipophilic UV-screening agent, wherein the at least one lipophilic organic UV-screening agent is chosen from:
• Butyl Methoxy Dibenzoylmethane, Octocrylene, Ethylhexyl Salicylate, n-Hexyl 2-(4-diethylamino-2-hydroxybenzoyl)benzoate, Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine, Ethylhexyl Triazone, Diethylhexyl Butamido Triazone, Drometrizole Trisiloxane, Ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate, and mixtures thereof;
• and
• c) 0.5% to 10% by weight of at least hydrophobic silica aerogel particles;
• the composition comprising less than 5% by weight of non-volatile non-cyclic silicone oil relative to the total weight of the composition;
• and
• wherein the composition due to the inclusion of the hydrophobic silica aerogel particles exhibits superior sun screening efficacy as compared to composition not containing the hydrophobic silica aerogel particles.
