Abstract
Skin conditioning compositions, and corresponding methods of application, wherein the compositions comprise a lipophilic carrier, solid particulates and preferably a skin benefit agent; and wherein the compositions have a Deposition Efficiency of at least about 30%, provide skin conditioning benefits. Preferred embodiments are further defined by selected lipophilic carrier rheologies, defined solid particulates for improved skin feel, and selected skin benefit agents for use in the composition. These compositions and corresponding methods provide improved cosmetics, skin feel, and/or skin active efficacy.
Claims24
A skin conditioning composition comprising:
- (i) a lipophilic carrier;
- and
- (ii) solid particulates;
- wherein the composition has a Deposition Efficiency (DE) of at least about 30% wherein DE=[Wafter−W0]/[Wbefore−W0]×100%].
A skin conditioning composition comprising:
- (i) at least about 10% by weight of a lipophilic carrier;
- and
- (ii) from about 1.0% to about 90% by weight of solid particulates;
- wherein the composition has a Deposition Efficiency (DE) of at least about 30% wherein DE=[Wafter−W0]/[Wbefore−W0]×100%].
A method of conditioning the skin comprising the steps of applying a skin conditioning composition comprising:
- (i) a lipophilic carrier;
- and
- (ii) solid particulates;
- wherein the composition has a Deposition Efficiency (DE) of at least about 30% wherein DE=[Wafter−W0]/[Wbefore−W0]×100%] and, removing the composition once applied by means selected from by rinsing, wiping and mixtures thereof.
A method of conditioning the skin comprising the steps of applying a skin conditioning composition comprising:
- (i) at least about 10% by weight of a lipophilic carrier;
- and
- (ii) from about 1.0% to about 90% by weight of solid particulates;
- wherein the composition has a Deposition Efficiency (DE) of at least about 30% wherein DE=[Wafter−W0]/[Wbefore−W0]×100%] and removing the composition once applied by means selected from by rinsing, wiping and mixtures thereof.
