This composition comprises from 6% to 12% by weight of the total weight of the composition of a cellulose derivative, from 5% to 15% by weight of the total weight of the composition of a vegetable oil, and a volatile solvent. The oil/cellulose ratio by weight is between 0.8 and 1.5. This novel dressing base makes it possible to obtain a film on the skin having satisfactory resistances to water and to rubbing actions. The film is flexible and sufficiently comfortable, in particular when the dressing is applied to a fairly extensive area of the skin. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A fluid composition intended to be applied to the skin, comprising a cellulose derivative, a vegetable oil and a solvent for said derivative which is volatile, wherein the cellulose derivative represents from 6% to 13% by dry weight of the total weight of the composition, wherein the vegetable oil represents from 5% to 15% by weight of the total weight of the composition and wherein the oil/cellulose ratio by weight, by dry weight, is between 0.8 and 1.5. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The composition as claimed in claim 1, wherein the cellulose derivative is a nitrocellulose. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The composition as claimed in claim 1, wherein the vegetable oil is castor oil. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The composition as claimed in claim 1, wherein the oil represents between 7% and 12% by weight of the total weight of the composition. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The composition as claimed in claim 1, wherein the solvent for said cellulose derivative represents between 70% and 90% by weight of the total weight of the composition. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The composition as claimed in claim 1, wherein the solvent for said cellulose derivative is chosen from ethanol, ethyl acetate and their mixtures. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The composition as claimed in claim 1, which comprises nitrocellulose, castor oil, ethyl acetate and ethanol. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The composition as claimed in claim 1, which additionally comprises an ingredient chosen from depigmenting agents, antibacterial agents, antifungal agents, healing agents, pain killers, anti-inflammatories, hydrating agents, keratolytic agents, vitamins, restructuring agents for superficial body growths, sunscreens and their mixtures. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The composition as claimed in claim 1, which is packaged in a bottle having an application means, such as a brush or a spatula. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The composition as claimed in claim 1 for the use thereof in the protection of burns, wounds, scars or skin ailments.
