A composition suitable for effective and comfortable removal of both waterproof and non-waterproof eye makeup is disclosed which includes an aqueous phase containing at least one surfactant and an oily phase containing at least one cosmetic oil. The surfactant concentration may be up to 3 wt % of the total weight of the composition. The weight ratio of the aqueous phase and the oily phase may be from 30:70 to 60:40.
The invention relates to a cosmetic or dermatological composition gelled by an elastomeric organopolysiloxane which is at least partially crosslinked, combined with a fatty phase comprising at least one make-up-removing oil which is compatible with the organopolysiloxane, chosen from isohexadecane and isododecane, for removing make-up from around the eyes, more especially sensitive eyes, and containing little or no preserving agent or surfactant. The fatty phase in particular has average Hansen solubility parameters dD, dP and dH which satisfy the following three conditions: (1) dD.ltoreq.20 (J/cm.sup.3).sup.1/2 (2) dP.ltoreq.10 (J/cm.sup.3).sup.1/2 (3) dH.ltoreq.15 (J/cm.sup.3).sup.1/2.
This invention relates to a method for moisturizing the skin with a natural product consisting of fresh lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, and water.
An aqueous cleansing and oily soil removing composition comprising a surface active agent and an agent for removing oily soil from skin, in which the surface active agent and agent for removing oily soil are separate but combinedly dispensable from a single packaging means as discrete domains, preferably in a predetermined ratio. Separating the agent for removing oily soil from the surface active agent results in improved removal of oily soil from skin, and a clean, fresh feel which is appreciated by the consumer.
The present invention relates to a liquid dual phase cosmetic or pharmaceutical composition comprising an oil phase and an aqueous phase, the composition containing as a demixing agent a quaternary nitrogen-containing ether substituted alkoxylated alkyl glucoside. The compositions of the invention are particularly useful as makeup removers.
A cosmetic or dermatological composition has an aqueous phase and a separate oily phase in a ratio of between 30:70 and 60:40, at least one of the phases containing a surfactant, the aqueous phase containing a demixing agent in a proportion of between 0.025% and 5% by weight, the demixing agent having the formula: ##STR1## in which: R represents a saturated linear alkyl radical having from 12 to 16 carbon atoms. The composition may be used for any cosmetic or dermatological purpose, particularly for removing makeup from the eyes or face, as a sun lotion or as a lotion for cleansing or care of the skin.
