Abstract
An anhydrous cosmetic composition in the aerosol form for forming a foam is composed of a propellant and an oily phase. The oily phase contains in combination at least one cosmetic oil or a mixture of an oil and a fatty substance and at least one foaming agent. The foaming agent corresponds to the following general formula: ##STR1## wherein R represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl radical having 14 to 20 carbon atoms, and R.sub.1 represents an alkyl radical having 8 to 18 carbon atoms. This composition allows a highly stable foam to be obtained.
