Abstract
The invention relates to a transparent or translucent cosmetic emulsion comprising an aqueous phase, a fatty phase and a surfactant, the said fatty phase containing a miscible mixture of at least one cosmetic oil and of at least one volatile fluoro compound, the latter compound being present in a proportion such that the refractive index of the fatty phase is equal to ±0.05 of that of the aqueous phase. The invention also relates to the process for preparing the emulsion. Use of the emulsion in skincare, hair conditioning and antisun protection and/or artificial tanning.
