Claims17
An anti-UV filter, said filter comprising a water-soluble lignin derived from an enzymatic treatment, said lignin being soluble in water at a pH between 5 and 10, wherein the water-soluble lignin comprises no sulfonate groups or comprises a maximum mass content of 1% by weight of sulfonate groups relative to the total weight of water-soluble lignin.
A cosmetic composition comprising:
- an aqueous phase comprising at least one water-soluble lignin derived from an enzymatic treatment, said lignin being soluble in water at a pH comprised between 5 and 10, wherein the water-soluble lignin comprises no sulfonate groups or comprises a maximum mass content of 1% by weight of sulfonate groups relative to the total weight of water-soluble lignin;
- and
- an oily phase and/or at least one hydrophilic thickening polymer selected from the group consisting of cellulose and its derivatives, natural gums, scleroglucans, chitin and chitosan derivatives, carrageenans and gellans.
