## Abstract

Slurry powder cosmetic composition comprising particulates coated with a binder composition, a silicone gel composition, and the evaporation residue of an alcohol based composition and a method for making the composition.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A slurry powder cosmetic composition comprising particulates coated with a binder composition, a silicone gel composition, and the evaporation residue of an alcohol based composition.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The composition of claim 1 wherein the particulates comprise pigments or powders.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The composition of claim 2 wherein the pigments or powders have a particle size of from about 0.01 to 100 microns.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The composition of claim 3 wherein the pigments are multilayer.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The composition of claim 1 wherein the silicone gel composition comprises a mixture of dimethicone and a crosslinked organosiloxane.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The composition of claim 1 wherein the silicone gel comprises a mixture of dimethicone and Polysilicone-11.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The composition of claim 1 wherein the alcohol based composition comprises a C1-6 aliphatic or aromatic alcohol either alone or in combination with one or more water soluble or dispersible ingredients.

### Claim 8 (depends on 6)

The composition of claim 6 wherein the alcohol based composition comprises alcohol and at least one water soluble or dispersible polymer.

### Claim 9 (depends on 6)

The composition of claim 6 wherein the evaporation residue of the alcohol based composition is hydratable with water or alcohol.

### Claim 10 (depends on 6)

The composition of claim 6 wherein the evaporation residue of the alcohol based composition is solvatable with non-polar solvents.

### Claim 11 (depends on 1)

The composition of claim 1 further comprising pigments and/or powders having a particle size ranging from about 0.01 to 100 microns; a silicone gel composition comprised of a water insoluble silicone and a crosslinked silicone; and wherein the evaporation residue of the alcohol based composition comprises one or more water soluble ingredients.

### Claim 12 (depends on 1)

The composition of claim 1 which is anhydrous.

### Claim 13 (depends on 1)

The composition of claim 1 comprising from about 0.1 to 20% water in addition to the evaporation residue.

### Claim 14

A method for making a slurry powder composition comprising:
(a) combining particulates, a binder composition, a silicone gel composition and an alcohol based composition,
(b) subjecting the composition of (a) to slurrying;
(c) evaporating the alcohol based composition,
(d) to yield a slurry powder composition comprising particulates coated with a binder, a silicone gel composition and the evaporation residue of the alcohol based composition.

### Claim 15 (depends on 13)

The method of claim 13 wherein the slurrying is performed until the alcohol based composition has been absorbed by the particulates.

### Claim 16 (depends on 13)

The method of claim 13 wherein the composition of (c) contains from about 0.01 to 20% water in addition to the evaporation residue.
