Abstract
The invention relates to a composition for topical application containing, in a physiologically acceptable medium, at least one polymer chosen from polymers capable of forming a thermoreversible gel, polymers capable of forming a crosslinked gel, and mixtures thereof, and an aqueous dispersion of particles of elastomeric organopolysiloxane. The polymers are preferably chosen from carrageenans, agars, gellan gums, alginates, pectins and mixtures thereof. The composition obtained preferably has a pasty texture and has the advantage of being both very soft and very cooling. The subject of the invention is also the uses, in particular the cosmetic uses, of the claimed composition, in particular for concealing and/or softening imperfections of the skin and/or the lips.
Claims22
A composition for topical application to the skin or the lips comprising, in a physiologically acceptable medium,
- (a) at least one polymer selected from the group consisting of polymers capable of forming a thermoreversible gel, polymers capable of forming a crosslinked gel, and mixtures thereof, and
- (b) an aqueous dispersion of particles of elastomeric organopolysiloxane,
- wherein the elastomeric organopolysiloxane is obtained by addition and crosslinking reaction, in the presence of a catalyst, of at least:
- one organopolysiloxane (i) having two vinyl groups at the α,ω-position of the silicone chain per molecule;
- and
- one organosiloxane (ii) having at least one hydrogen atom linked to one silicon atom per molecule.
