Abstract
Composition for topical application in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion containing an oily phase dispersed in an aqueous phase, and a hydrophilic polymer, the composition further containing (1) at least one elastomeric organopolysiloxane and (2) at least one lipophilic compound chosen from lipophilic amino acid compounds and lipophilic salicylic acid compounds. Uses thereof, including topical application to the skin, lips, hair, etc. Stabilization of certain emulsions using a lipophilic compound.
Claims17
A stable composition in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion comprising an oily phase dispersed in an aqueous phase and a hydrophilic polymer, said composition further comprising:
- (1) at least one elastomeric organopolysiloxane dispersed in the oily phase, wherein the elastomeric organopolysiloxane is present in an amount ranging from 1 to 20% by weight with respect to the total weight of the composition and is obtained by addition and crosslinking reaction, in the presence of a catalyst, of at least:
- a first organopolysiloxane (i) containing two vinyl groups in α-ω position on the silicone chain per molecule;
- and
- a second organopolysiloxane (ii) containing at least one hydrogen atom linked to a silicon atom per molecule, and
- (2) a glycine derivative selected from the group consisting of capryloylglycine, undecylenoylglycine, and mixtures thereof, wherein the glycine derivative is present in an amount sufficient to stabilize the composition, wherein the composition is free of surfactant.
