[0029] A shear stress may have been applied to the composition at the crystallization temperature of the (a-2) wax, if the (a-2) wax is crystallizable. The crystallization temperature may be measured using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC).

[0030] The present invention also relates to a cosmetic process for applying a keratinous substance to the keratinous material, including the application step. ratineuse, of the composition according to the present invention.

[0031] The present invention also relates to a use of (a-3) at least one indene resin in a composition comprising:

[0032] (a) a continuous fatty phase comprising

[0033] (a-1) at least one oil, and

[0034] (a-2) at least one wax;

[0035] and

[0036] (b) a plurality of dispersed aqueous phases comprising

[0037] (b-1) of water,

[0038] in order to limit the transfer of the composition which has been applied to a keratinous substance such as lips to any other substance with which the composition is in contact. Best embodiment of the invention

[0039] After extensive research, the inventors discovered that it is possible to propose a composition capable of offering a feeling of comfort, with limited transfer of the composition from a keratinous substance, on which the composition has been applied, to another substance which touches the composition on the keratinous substance.

[0040] Thus, the composition according to the present invention is a composition comprising:

[0041] (a) a continuous fatty phase comprising

[0042] (a-1) at least one oil,

[0043] (a-2) at least one wax, and

[0044] (a-3) at least one indene resin;

[0045] and

[0046] (b) a plurality of dispersed aqueous phases comprising

[0047] (b-1) of water.

[0048] The composition according to the present invention can provide a feeling of comfort during and / or after use. For example, it can provide a smooth glide, a non-sticky feel, and a melting sensation.

[0049] Furthermore, the composition according to the present invention can limit the transfer of the composition from a keratinous substance, to which the composition has been applied, to another substance that comes into contact with the composition on the keratinous substance. For example, if the composition according to the present invention has any color, the transfer of color from a keratinous substance such as lips to any substance such as a cup can be limited or reduced. This means that the composition according to the present invention can provide long-lasting makeup effects. Thus, the composition according to the present invention can provide good makeup effects after use.

[0050] The composition according to the present invention is suitable for lipsticks.

[0051] Since the composition according to the present invention comprises (b-1) water, the composition according to the present invention can provide a feeling of freshness during use and moisturize a keratinous substance such as the lips.

[0052] The composition and process according to the present invention will each be described in detail below.

[0053] [Composition]

[0054] The composition according to the present invention is a composition comprising:

[0055] (a) a continuous or external fatty phase comprising

[0056] (a-1) at least one oil,

[0057] (a-2) at least one wax, and

[0058] (a-3) at least one indene resin;

[0059] and

[0060] (b) a plurality of dispersed, discontinuous or internal aqueous phases comprising

[0061] (b-1) of water.

[0062] In the composition according to the present invention, a plurality of (b) aqueous phases are dispersed in (a) oily phase. The (b) aqueous phases are discontinuous phases, while (a) oily phase is a continuous phase. This form will be referred to hereafter as "E / H type".

[0063] (Oil)

[0064] The composition according to the present invention comprises (a-1) at least one oil. If two (a-1) or more oils are used, they may be identical or different.

[0065] The (a-1) oil may be present in the (a) fatty phase of the composition according to the present invention.

[0066] Here, "oil" refers to a fatty compound or oily substance that is in the form of a liquid or a paste (not solid) at room temperature (25 °C) under atmospheric pressure (101,325 Pa). As oils, those generally used in cosmetics can be used alone or in combination with one another. These oils can be volatile or non-volatile.

[0067] The (a-1) oil may be a non-polar oil such as a hydrocarbon oil, a silicone oil or the like; a polar oil such as a vegetable or animal oil and an ester oil or an ether oil; or a mixture thereof.

[0068] The (a-1) oil may be chosen from the group consisting of oils of vegetable or animal origin, synthetic oils, silicone oils, hydrocarbon oils and fatty alcohols.

[0069] Examples of vegetable oils include, for example, linseed oil, camellia oil, macadamia nut oil, corn oil, mink oil, olive oil, avocado oil, sasanqua oil, castor oil, safflower oil, jojoba oil, sunflower oil, almond oil, rapeseed oil, sesame oil, soybean oil, peanut oil, and mixtures thereof.

[0077] Sugar esters and C6-C30 fatty acid diesters, and preferably C12-C22 esters, can be used as ester oils. It should be noted that the term "sugar" refers to oxygen-bearing hydrocarbon compounds containing several alcohol functional groups, with or without aldehyde or ketone functional groups, and comprising at least four carbon atoms. These sugars may be monosaccharides, oligosaccharides, or polysaccharides.

[0078] Examples of suitable sugars that can be cited include sucrose, glucose, galactose, ribose, fucose, maltose, fructose, mannose, Arabinose, xylose and lactose, and their derivatives, including alkyl derivatives, such as methyl derivatives, for example methylglucose.

[0079] Sugar esters of fatty acids may be selected in particular from the group comprising the esters or mixtures of sugar esters described above and fatty acids in the C6-C30, and preferably in the C2-C22 linear or branched, saturated or unsaturated range. If unsaturated, these compounds may have one to three conjugated or non-conjugated carbon-carbon double bonds.

[0086] Examples of silicone oils include, for instance, linear organopolysiloxanes such as dimethylpolysiloxane, methylphenylpolysiloxane, methylhydrogenpolysiloxane, etc.; and cyclic organopolysiloxanes such as cyclohexasiloxane, octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane, decamethylcyclopentasiloxane, etc. dodecamethylcyclohexasiloxane etc.; and mixtures thereof.

[0087] Preferably, the silicone oil is chosen from liquid polydialkylsiloxanes, in particular liquid polydimethylsiloxanes (PDMS) and liquid polyorganosiloxanes comprising at least one aryl group.

[0088] These silicone oils can also be organo-modified. The organo-modified silicones that can be used for the present invention are silicone oils as defined above and comprise in their structure one or more organofunctional groups attached via a hydrocarbon group.

[0089] Organopolysiloxanes are defined in more detail in Walter Noll's Chemistry and Technology of Silicones (1968), Academy Press. They can be volatile or non-volatile.

[0090] If they are volatile, silicones are particularly chosen from those having a boiling point between 60 °C and 260 °C, and even more particularly from:

[0091] (i) cyclic polydialkylsiloxanes comprising 3 to 7 and preferably 4 to 5 silicon atoms. These include, for example, octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane, sold in particular under the name Volatile Silicone® 7207 by Union Carbide or Silbione® 70045 V2 by Rhodia; decamethylcyclopentasiloxane, sold under the name Volatile Silicone® 7158 by Union Carbide and Silbione® 70045 V5 by Rhodia; and dodecam ethylcyclopentasiloxane, sold under the name Silsoft 1217 by Momentive Performance Materials, and mixtures thereof. Also noteworthy are cyclocopolymers of the dimethylsiloxane / methylalkylsiloxane type, such as Silicone Volatile® FZ 3109, sold by Union Carbide, with the formula: ।—■ D'1 ■— D' D" — ü' —। CH, 1 CH, r LC ' Sj O and SVCÇ 0l u CSï 'O CH... ■2 v '

[0092] Other examples include mixtures of cyclic polydialkylsiloxanes with organosilicon compounds, such as the mixture of octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane and tetratrimethylsilylpentaerythritol (50 / 50) and the mixture of octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane and oxy-1,r-bis(2,2,2',2',3,3'-hexatrimethylsilyloxy)neopentane; and

[0093] (ii) linear volatile polydialkylsiloxanes containing 2 to 9 silicon atoms and having a viscosity less than or equal to 5 x 10⁶ m² / s at 25 °C. An example is deca-methyltetrasiloxane, sold in particular under the name SH 200 by Toray Silicone. Silicones belonging to this category are also described in the article published in Cosmetics and Toiletries, Vol. 91, Jan. 76, pp. 27-32, Todd & Byers, Volatile Silicone Fluids for Cosmetics. The viscosity of silicones is measured at 25 °C according to ASTM 445 Annex C.

[0094] Non-volatile polydialkylsiloxanes can also be used. These non-volatile silicones are more particularly chosen from among the polydialkylsiloxanes, among which the main examples are polydimethylsiloxanes containing trimethylsilyl terminal groups.

[0095] Among these polydialkylsiloxanes, the following commercial products may be cited, without limitation:

[0119] The term "fatty" in fatty alcohol means the inclusion of a relatively large number of carbon atoms. Thus, alcohols that have 4 or more carbon atoms, preferably 6 or more, and more preferably 12 or more, are encompassed within the scope of fatty alcohols. Fatty alcohols can be saturated or unsaturated. Fatty alcohols can be linear or branched.

[0120] The fatty alcohol may have the structure R-OH in which R is selected from saturated and unsaturated, linear and branched radicals containing from 4 to 40 carbon atoms, preferably from 6 to 30 carbon atoms, and more preferably from 12 to 20 carbon atoms. In at least one embodiment, R may be selected from alkyl groups in the form C2-C2O and alkenyl groups in the form C2-C2O. R may or may not be substituted by at least one hydroxyl group.

[0123] Thus, the fatty alcohol can be chosen from saturated or unsaturated C6-C30 alcohols, linear or branched, preferably from saturated C6-C30 alcohols, linear or branched, and more preferably from saturated Ci2-C2o alcohols, linear or branched.

[0124] The term "saturated fatty alcohol" here refers to an alcohol having a long saturated aliphatic carbon chain. Preferably, the saturated fatty alcohol should be chosen from any saturated C6-C30 fatty alcohols, linear or branched. Among saturated C6-C30 fatty alcohols, linear or branched, saturated C2-C20 fatty alcohols, linear or branched, may preferably be used.

[0126] According to at least one embodiment, the fatty alcohol used in the composition according to the present invention is preferably chosen from cetyl alcohol, octyldodecanol, hexyldecanol and mixtures thereof.

[0127] It is also preferable to choose the (a-1) oil from oils with a molecular weight of less than 600 g / mol.

[0128] Preferably, the (a-1) oil has a low molecular weight such as less than 600 g / mol, selected from ester oils with a short hydrocarbon chain or chains (CrCi2) (e.g., isopropyl lauroyl sarcosinate, isopropyl myristate, isopropyl palmitate, isononyl isononanoate and ethyl hexyl palmitate), silicone oils (e.g., volatile silicones such as cyclohexasiloxane), hydrocarbon oils (e.g., isododecane, isohexadecane and squalane), branched and / or unsaturated fatty alcohol type oils (Ci2-C30) such as octyldodecanol and oleyl alcohol, and ether oils such as dicaprylyl ether.

[0129] It is preferable that the (a-1) oil be chosen from volatile oils, non-volatile oils, and mixtures thereof.

[0130] In one embodiment, the (a-1) oil can be chosen from:

[0137] The quantity of the (a-1) oil(s) in the composition according to the present invention can be from 15% to 45% by weight, preferably from 20% to 40% by weight and, even better, from 25% to 35% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.

[0138] It may be preferable for the composition according to the present invention to comprise a limited amount of silicone oil such as less than 5% by weight or less, less than 3% by weight or less, and less than 1% by weight or less, relative to the total weight of the composition. It may be even more preferable for the composition according to the present invention to comprise no silicone oil at all.

[0139] According to a preferred embodiment, the composition according to the invention is free of silicone oil. In other words, it may be particularly preferable for the composition according to the present invention not to contain silicone oil.

[0140] (Wax)

[0141] The composition according to the present invention comprises (a-2) at least one wax. If two (a-2) or more waxes are used, they may be identical or different.

[0142] The (a-2) wax may be present in the (a) fatty phase of the composition according to the present invention.

[0143] The term “wax” is understood, for the purposes of the present invention, as a lipophilic compound, which is solid at room temperature (25 °C), with a reversible solid / liquid change of state, and which has a melting point greater than or equal to 30 °C.

[0144] The melting point of the wax here refers to a temperature at which all the wax is melted.

[0145] The (a-2) wax can be selected from polar waxes, non-polar waxes and mixtures thereof, preferably selected from polar ester waxes, non-polar hydrocarbon waxes and mixtures thereof.

[0146] The quantity of the (a-2) wax(s) in the composition according to the present invention may be greater than or equal to 12% by weight, preferably greater than or equal to 13% by weight, and, more preferably, greater than or equal to 14% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.

[0147] The quantity of the (a-2) wax(s) in the composition according to the present invention may be 30% by weight or less, preferably 25% by weight or less, and more preferably 20% by weight or less, relative to the total weight of the composition.

[0148] The quantity of the (a-2) wax(s) in the composition according to the present invention can be from 12% to 30% by weight, preferably from 13% to 25% by weight, and more preferably from 14% to 20% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.

[0149] Non-polar wax:

[0150] Preferably, the composition according to the present invention comprises (a-2-1) at least one non-polar wax. If two or more (a-2-1) non-polar waxes are used, they may be identical or different.

[0151] The (a-2-1) non-polar wax may be present in the (a) fatty phase of the composition according to the present invention.

[0152] The (a-2-1) non-polar wax may have a melting point of 35 °C to 130 °C, preferably of 40 °C to 125 °C, and more preferably of 45 °C to 120 °C.

[0153] Nonpolar (α-2-1) wax can be crystalline and, therefore, nonpolar (α-2-1) wax can form crystals at a crystallization temperature. Thus, the crystallization of nonpolar (α-2-1) wax can begin at the crystallization temperature. The crystallization temperature can be measured using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), for example, the calorimeter sold under the name DSC 30 by the Mettler company.

[0154] For the purposes of the present invention, the term "non-polar" wax means a wax for which the solubility parameter ôa at 25 °C as defined below is equal to 0 (J / cm3)1^.

[0305] These polymers can be modified physically or chemically. As Physical treatment, in particular temperature, can be mentioned.

[0306] The chemical treatments that can be cited include esterification, etherification, amidation and oxidation reactions. These treatments can lead to polymers that may be nonionic, anionic or amphoteric, in particular.

[0307] Preferably, these chemical or physical treatments are applied to guar gums, locust bean gums, starches and celluloses.

[0308] Non-ionic guar gums that can be used according to the present invention can be modified by (poly)hydroxyalkyl groups in Ci-C6.

[0309] Among the (poly)hydroxyalkyl groups in Ci-C6, examples include hydroxymethyl, hydroxyethyl, hydroxypropyl and hydroxybutyl groups.

[0310] These guar gums are well known in the prior art and can be prepared, for example, by reacting the corresponding alkene oxides, for example, propylene oxides, with guar gum so as to obtain a guar gum modified by hydroxypropyl groups.

[0311] The degree of hydroxyalkylation preferably varies from 0.4 to 1.2 and corresponds to the number of alkylene oxide molecules consumed by the number of free hydroxyl functional groups present on the guar gum.

[0312] Such non-ionic guar gums optionally modified by hydroxyalkyl groups are sold, for example, under the trade names Jaguar HP8, Jaguar HP60 and Jaguar HP120 by the company Rhodia Chimie.

[0313] The botanical origin of the starch molecules that can be used in the present invention may be cereals or tubers. Thus, the starches are chosen, for example, from maize starch, rice starch, cassava starch, barley starch, potato starch, wheat starch, sorghum starch and pea starch.

[0314] Starches can be modified chemically or physically, in particular by one or more of the following reactions: pregelatinization, oxidation, crosslinking, esterification, etherification, amidation and heat treatment.

[0315] Distarch phosphates or compounds rich in distarch phosphate will be used preferentially, for example the product sold under the names Prejel VA-70-T AGGL (gelatinized cassava hydroxypropyl distarch phosphate), Prejel TK1 (gelatinized cassava distarch phosphate) and Prejel 200 (gelatinized cassava acetyl distarch phosphate) by the Avebe company, or Structure Zea from National Starch (gelatinized maize distarch phosphate).

[0316] According to the present invention, amphoteric starches can also be used, these amphoteric starches comprising one or more anionic groups and one or more cationic groups. The anionic and cationic groups may be linked to the same reactive site of the starch molecule or to different reactive sites; they are of Preference is given to groups linked to the same reactive site. Anionic groups can be carboxylic, phosphate, or sulfate, preferentially carboxylic. Cationic groups can be primary, secondary, tertiary, or quaternary amines.

[0317] Starch molecules can be derived from any plant source of starch, in particular maize, potato, oats, rice, tapioca, sorghum, barley, or wheat. Hydrolysates of the starches mentioned above may also be used. The starch is preferably derived from potato.

[0318] The non-associative thickening polymers of the present invention may be cellulose-based polymers not comprising a Cio-C3o fatty chain in their structure.

[0319] According to the present invention, the expression "cellulose-based polymer" means any polysaccharide compound having in its structure sequences of glucose residues linked together via [3-1,4] bonds; in addition to unsubstituted celluloses, cellulose derivatives can be anionic, cationic, amphoteric or non-ionic.

[0320] Thus, the cellulose polymers that can be used according to the present invention can be chosen from unsubstituted celluloses, in particular those in microcrystalline form, and cellulose ethers.

[0321] Among these cellulose-based polymers, cellulose ethers, cellulose esters and cellulose ester ethers are distinguished.

[0322] Cellulose esters include mineral cellulose esters (cellulose nitrates, sulfates, phosphates, etc.), organic cellulose esters (cellulose monoacetates, triacetates, amidopropionates, acetobutyrates, acetopropionates and acetotrimellitates, etc.), and mixed organic / mineral cellulose esters, such as cellulose acetobutyrate sulfates and cellulose acetopropionate sulfates. Examples of cellulose ester ethers include hydroxypropylmethylcellulose phthalates and ethylcellulose sulfates.

[0323] Among the non-ionic cellulose ethers without a C10-C30 fatty chain, i.e., which are non-associative, we can mention (CrC4) alkylcelluloses such as methylcelluloses and ethylcelluloses (for example, Ethocel Standard 100 Premium from Dow Chemical); (poly)hydroxy(C10-C4)alkylcelluloses such as hydroxymethylcelluloses, hydroxyethylcelluloses (for example, Natrosol 250 HHR supplied by Aqualon) and hydroxypropylcelluloses (for example, Klucel EF from Aqualon); mixed (poly)hydroxy(C10-C4)alkyl-(C10-C4)alkylcelluloses such as hydroxypropylmethylcelluloses (for example, Methocel E4M from Dow Chemical); hydroxyethylmethylcelluloses, hydroxyethylcelluloses (e.g., Akzo Nobel's Bermocoll E 481 FQ) and hydroxybutylmethylcelluloses.

[0324] Among the anionic cellulose ethers without a fat chain, (poly)carboxy(Ci-C4)alkylcelluloses and their salts may be mentioned. By way of example, the carboxymethylcelluloses, carboxymethylmethylcelluloses (e.g. Blanose 7M from Aqualon) and carboxymethylhydroxyethylcelluloses, and their sodium salts.

[0325] Among cationic cellulose ethers without a fat chain, cationic cellulose derivatives such as cellulose copolymers or cellulose derivatives grafted with a water-soluble quaternary ammonium monomer, and described in particular in US patent 4,131,576, may be cited, such as (poly)hydroxy(Ci-C4)alkyl celluloses, for example, hydroxymethyl-, hydroxyethyl-, or hydroxypropyl-celluloses grafted in particular with a salt of methacryloylethyltrimethylammonium, methacrylamidopropyltrimethylammonium, or dimethyldiallylammonium. Commercial products corresponding to this definition are, more particularly, those sold under the names Celquat L 200 and Celquat H 100 by National Starch.

[0326] Among the non-associative thickening polymers not bearing sugar motifs that can be used according to the present invention, we may mention crosslinked acrylic acid or methacrylic acid homopolymers or copolymers, crosslinked 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid homopolymers and their crosslinked acrylamide copolymers, ammonium acrylate homopolymers, or ammonium acrylate and acrylamide copolymers, alone or in mixtures.

[0327] A first family of non-associative thickening polymers which is suitable for use is represented by crosslinked acrylic acid homopolymers.

[0328] Among the homopolymers of this type, we can cite those crosslinked with an allylic alcohol ether from the sugar range, for example, the products sold under the names Carbopol 980, 981, 954, 2984 and 5984 by the company Noveon or the products sold under the names Synthalen M and Synthalen K by the company 3 VS A. These polymers bear the INCI name Carbomer.

[0329] Non-associative thickening polymers can also be crosslinked (meth)acrylic acid copolymers, such as the polymer sold under the name Aqua SF1 by the company Noveon.

[0330] In addition, as a (b-2) hydrophilic thickener, the following may be cited:

[0331] Crosslinked (meth)acrylic acid or (meth)acrylate polymers, preferably crosslinked homopolymers or copolymers of (meth)acrylic acid and / or (meth)acrylate, and more preferably crosslinked sodium polyacrylates, such as, for example, those sold under the names Octacare XI00, XI10 and RM 100 by Avecia, those sold under the names Flocare GB300 and Flosorb 500 by SNF, those sold under the names Luquasorb 1003, Luquasorb 1010, Luquasorb 1280 and Luquasorb 1100 by BASF, those sold under the names Water Lock G400 and G430 (INCI name: Acrylamide / Sodium Acrylate Copolymer) by Grain Processing, or Aqua Keep 10 SH NF supplied by Sumitomo Seika, or Aqupec MG N40R supplied by Sumitomo Seika.

[0332] Non-associative thickening polymers may be selected from crosslinked 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid homopolymers and their crosslinked acrylamide copolymers.

[0333] Among the partially or totally neutralized crosslinked copolymers of 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid and acrylamide, particular mention may be made of the product described in Example 1 of document EP 503 853, and reference may be made to said document concerning these polymers.

[0334] The composition may also include, as non-associative thickening polymers, ammonium acrylate homopolymers or ammonium acrylate and acrylamide copolymers.

[0335] Among the ammonium acrylate homopolymers that may be cited is the product sold under the name Microsap PAS 5193 by Hoechst. Among the ammonium acrylate and acrylamide copolymers that may be cited are the product sold under the name Bozepol C Nouveau and the product PAS 5193 sold by Hoechst. Reference may be made, in particular, to FR 2 416 723, US 2 798 053 ​​and US 2 923 692 for the description and preparation of these compounds.

[0336] Cationic thickening polymers of the acrylic type can also be used.

[0337] Among hydrophilic thickening polymers, associative polymers, which are well known to those skilled in the art, can also be mentioned, particularly those of a nonionic, anionic, cationic or amphoteric nature.

[0338] It is recalled that associative polymers are polymers capable, in aqueous media, of reversibly associating with each other or with other molecules.

[0339] Their chemical structure includes more particularly at least one hydrophilic region and at least one hydrophobic region.

[0340] The term "hydrophobic group" means a radical or polymer with a saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon chain, linear or branched, comprising at least 10 carbon atoms, preferably from 10 to 30 carbon atoms, in particular from 12 to 30 carbon atoms and more preferably from 18 to 30 carbon atoms.

[0341] Preferably, the hydrocarbon-based group is derived from a monofunctional compound. By way of example, the hydrophobic group may be derived from a fatty alcohol such as stearyl alcohol, dodecyl alcohol, or decyl alcohol. It may also designate a hydrocarbon-based polymer, for example, polybutadiene.

[0342] Examples of anionic-type associative polymers include:

[0343] (a) those comprising at least one hydrophilic motif and at least one allyl ether motif fatty chain, more particularly those whose hydrophilic motif consists of an unsaturated ethylenic anionic monomer, more particularly a vinylcarboxylic acid and especially an acrylic acid or a methacrylic acid or their mixtures. Among the anionic associative polymers, those which are particularly preferred according to the present invention are polymers formed of 20% to 60% by weight of acrylic acid and / or methacrylic acid, 5% to 60% by weight of lower alkyl (meth)acrylates, 2% to 50% by weight of fatty chain allyl ether, and 0% to 1% by weight of a crosslinking agent which is a well-known copolymerizable unsaturated polyethylenic monomer, for example, diallyl phthalate, allyl (meth)acrylate, divinylbenzene, (poly)ethylene glycol dimethacrylate and methylenebisacrylamide.Among these latter polymers, the most particularly preferred are the crosslinked terpolymers of methacrylic acid, ethyl acrylate and stearyl alcohol ether of polyethylene glycol (10 OE) (Steareth-10), notably those sold by the company CIBA under the names Salcare SC80® and Salcare SC90®, which are aqueous emulsions of 30% of a crosslinked terpolymer of methacrylic acid, ethyl acrylate and steareth-10 allyl ether (40 / 50 / 10).

[0344] (b) those comprising i) at least one hydrophilic motif of the carboxylic acid type unsaturated olefinic, and ii) at least one hydrophobic motif of the alkyl (C10-C30) ester of the unsaturated carboxylic acid type. Alkyl (C10-C30) esters of unsaturated carboxylic acids that are useful in the present invention include, for example, lauryl acrylate, stearyl acrylate, decyl acrylate, isodecyl acrylate, and dodecyl acrylate, and the corresponding methacrylates, lauryl methacrylate, stearyl methacrylate, decyl methacrylate, isodecyl methacrylate, and dodecyl methacrylate. Anionic polymers of this type are described and prepared, for example, according to US patents 3,915,921 and 4,509,949.Among the anionic associative polymers of this type, particular use will be made of those consisting of 95% to 60% by weight of acrylic acid (hydrophilic motif), 4% to 40% by weight of alkyl acrylate in C10-C30 (hydrophobic motif), and 0% to 6% by weight of polymerizable crosslinking monomer, or alternatively those consisting of 98% to 96% by weight of acrylic acid (hydrophilic motif), 1% to 4% by weight of alkyl acrylate in C10-C30 (hydrophobic motif) and 0.1% to 0.6% by weight of polymerizable crosslinking monomer such as those described above.

[0349] iii) approximately 0.5% to 60% by weight of a nonionic monourethane which is the reaction product of a monohydric surfactant with a monoethylenically unsaturated monoisocyanate,

[0351] (e) copolymers comprising among their monomers a carboxylic acid α,[3-monoethylenically unsaturated and an ester of an α,[3-monoethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid and an oxyalkylated fatty alcohol. Preferably, these compounds also comprise as a monomer an ester of an α,[3-monoethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid and a C1-C4 alcohol.

[0352] An example of a compound of this type which may be cited is Aculyn 22® sold by Rohm & Haas, which is a terpolymer of oxyalkylated methacrylic acid / ethyl acrylate / stearyl methacrylate; and also Aculyn 88, also sold by Rohm & Haas.

[0353] (f) amphiphilic polymers comprising at least one ethylenically unsaturated monomers bearing a sulfonic acid group, in free or partially or totally neutralized form, and comprising at least one hydrophobic portion. These polymers may be crosslinked or non-crosslinked. They are preferably crosslinked.

The hydrocarbon-based chains may be side chains or chains at the ends of the hydrophilic block. In particular, one or more side chains may be used. Furthermore, the polymer may comprise a hydrocarbon-based chain at one or both ends of a hydrophilic block.

[0398] Polyurethane polyethers can be multiblock, particularly in triblock form. The hydrophobic blocks can be at each end of the chain (e.g., a triblock copolymer with a central hydrophilic block) or distributed both at the ends and in the chain (e.g., a multiblock copolymer). These same polymers can also be grafted polymers or star polymers.

Nonionic polyether polyurethanes include a urethane linkage between the hydrophilic blocks, hence the origin of the name.

[0422] (Coloring agent)

[0423] The composition according to the present invention may comprise (c) at least one coloring agent. If two (c) or more coloring agents are used, they may be identical or different.

[0424] The (c) colouring agent may be present in the (a) oily phase or the (b) aqueous phase, depending on the nature of the (c) colouring agent.

[0425] In one embodiment, the (c) coloring agent may be selected from dyes, pigments and mixtures thereof.

[0426] In the present invention, the (c) colouring agent may be soluble in water or dispersible in water, or soluble in oil or dispersible in oil or with limited solubility in water.

[0427] In one embodiment, the (c) coloring agent may be chosen from coloring pigments.

[0428] The term “colour pigments” should be understood as white or coloured particles, inorganic or organic, of any shape, which are insoluble and intended to colour or dye the skin or lips.

[0429] Pigments can be white or colored, inorganic and / or organic.

[0430] Among the usable inorganic pigments, the following may be mentioned without limitation: titanium dioxide, optionally surface-treated; zirconium or cerium oxide; zinc, iron, or chromium oxide (black, yellow, or red); manganese violet; ultramarine blue; chromium hydrate; and ferric blue; or metallic powders, such as aluminum or copper powder. The pigments may also be selected from nanopigments formed of metallic oxides, such as titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, iron oxide, zirconium oxide, and cerium oxide, and mixtures thereof. "Nanopigments" means pigments with an average particle size range of 1 nm to 500 nm, such as, for example, particle sizes between 10 nm and 100 nm.

[0431] Among the usable organic pigments, mention may be made, without limitation, of carbon black, D&C type pigments and lakes, such as lakes based on cochineal carmine and barium, strontium, calcium or aluminum. For example, Red 33 (5-amino-4-hydroxy-3-(phenylazo)-naphthalene-2,7-disodium disulfonate) and Red 202 (calcium bis[2-(3-carboxy-2-hydroxynephthylazo)-5-methylbenzenesulfonate) can be used as a D&C type pigment.

[0432] The organic pigment may also be a diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) such as those described in documents EP-A-542669, EP-A-787730, EP-A-787731 and WO-A-96 / 08537.

[0433] The organic pigment can be chosen from bio-pigments such as Bio-ChromaDerm® or BioChromaEyes® supplied by Biotic Phocea in France.

[0434] Preferably, the colouring pigment can be selected from metallic oxides such as titanium dioxide, zirconium oxide, cerium oxide, zinc oxide, iron oxide and chromium oxide; manganese violet; Prussian blue; ultramarine blue; chromium hydrate; ferric blue; aluminium powder; the copper powder; carbon black; D&C type pigments; lacquers; pearlescent pigments; and mixtures thereof.

[0435] The expression "pearl pigments" should be understood as meaning iridescent particles of any shape, such as particles produced by certain shellfish in their shells or synthesized.

[0436] Pearlescent agents may be selected from white pearlescent agents, such as mica coated with titanium dioxide or bismuth oxychloride, coloured pearlescent agents, such as mica coated with titanium oxide covered with iron oxide, mica coated with titanium oxide covered with ferric blue or chromium oxide or mica coated with titanium oxide covered with an organic pigment of the type mentioned above, and pearlescent agents based on bismuth oxychloride.

[0437] It is preferable that the (c) colouring agent be chosen from among hydrophobic pigments.

[0438] It is preferable that the hydrophobic pigment be chosen from among the coated pigments Hydrophobic. A "hydrophobic coated pigment" is defined as any pigment coated with at least one lipophilic or hydrophobic compound. The term "lipophilic compound" refers to any compound soluble or dispersible in oil. The term "hydrophobic compound" refers to any compound insoluble in water.

[0439] According to a particular embodiment of the present invention, the pigments to be coated with at least one lipophilic or hydrophobic compound are chosen from inorganic and organic pigments.

[0440] The hydrophobic pigment may have at least one coating comprising at least one lipophilic or hydrophobic compound. This lipophilic or hydrophobic coating may be present on the outermost surface of the hydrophobic pigment.

[0441] For the purposes of the present invention, the "coating" of a pigment generally refers to the total or partial surface treatment of the pigment with a surface treatment agent, absorbed, adsorbed, or grafted onto said pigment. Thus, hydrophobic pigments can be surface-treated pigments.

[0442] Surface-treated pigments can be prepared using chemical, electronic, mechanochemical, or mechanical surface treatment techniques well known to those skilled in the art. Commercial products can also be used as surface-treated pigments.

[0443] The surface treatment agent can be absorbed, adsorbed or grafted onto the pigments by solvent evaporation, chemical reaction and creation of a covalent bond.

[0444] According to one embodiment, the surface treatment consists of a coating of the pigments.

[0445] The hydrophobic pigment may also comprise at least one coating including at least one non-lipophilic or non-hydrophobic compound, for example, at least one hydrophilic compound. For example, the non-lipophilic or non-hydrophobic compound may be selected from a metal hydroxide such as hydroxide of aluminum and metallic chlorides such as magnesium chloride. This non-lipophilic or non-hydrophobic coating may be present between the pigment itself and the lipophilic or hydrophobic coating.

[0446] The coating may represent from 0.1% to 20% by weight and in particular from 0.5% to 5% by weight relative to the total weight of the coated pigment.

[0447] The coating can be achieved, for example, by adsorption of a liquid surface treatment agent onto the surface of solid pigment particles by simple mixing with agitation of the particles and said surface treatment agent, possibly with heating, before incorporating the particles into the other ingredients of the composition to be used for the present invention.

[0448] The coating can be achieved, for example, by chemical reaction of a surface treatment agent with the surface of the solid pigment particles and creation of a covalent bond between the surface treatment agent and the particles. This method is described in particular in US-B-4,578,266.

[0449] Chemical surface treatment may consist of diluting a surface treatment agent in a volatile solvent, dispersing pigments in this mixture, and then slowly evaporating the volatile solvent, so that the surface treatment agent is deposited on the surface of the pigments.

[0450] According to a particular embodiment of the present invention, the pigments can be coated with at least one lipophilic or hydrophobic compound selected from silicon-based surface treatment agents; fluorinated surface treatment agents; fluorosilicone surface treatment agents; metallic soaps; fatty acids; N-acylaminated acids or their salts; lecithin and its derivatives; a monoalkyl triacyl titanate such as isopropyl triisostearyl titanate; isostearyl sebacate; natural vegetable or animal waxes; polar synthetic waxes; fatty esters; phospholipids; and mixtures thereof.

[0451] It is more preferable that (c) the coloring agent be chosen from pigments treated with mono-alkyl triacyl titanate. In a preferred embodiment, pigments suitable for use in the present invention are treated, for example, coated or coated with mono-alkyl triacyl titanate. A mono-alkyl triacyl titanate, also called mono-alkyl titanate, can be represented by the formula RO-Ti-(OR')3, in which R is an alkyl group and the R's are acyl groups, which may be the same or different.

[0452] In certain embodiments of monoalkyl triacyl titanate, said alkyl is a C5 alkyl group, in particular a C1,4 alkyl group, and said acyl is derived from acrylic acid or a derivative of acrylic acid, for example methacrylic acid, or from a fatty acid. Acyl groups in particular are derived from a C6,30 fatty acid, more particularly from a C12,24 fatty acid, and even more particularly from a fatty acids in the C16 2O group. These fatty acids may be capric, lauric, myristic, palmitic, stearic, isostearic, hydroxystearic, or oleic acid. The acyl groups of these triacyl titanates may be identical or different. A preferred embodiment is mono-isopropyl triacyl titanate; see the publication of US patent application no. 20050019284 (specifically paragraphs

[0038] -

[0052] ).

[0453] According to a preferred embodiment, monoalkyl triacetyl titanate may be isopropyl triisostearoyl titanate (ITT), isopropyl dimethacryl isos-tearoyl titanate, isopropyl dimethacryl isostearoyl titanate.

[0454] Preferably, the monoalkyl triacyl titanate may be isopropyl triisostearoyl titanate (ITT), which may also be called isopropyl titanium triisostearate.

[0455] The pigment treated with mono-alkyl triacyl titanate may be a pigment treated with isopropyl triisostearoyl titanate.

[0456] Monoalkyl triacyl titanate treated pigment is a pigment treated with at least monoalkyl triacyl titanate. Monoalkyl triacyl titanate treated pigment may be treated only with monoalkyl triacyl titanate, or treated with monoalkyl triacyl titanate and at least one additional surface treatment agent such as a fluorinated surface treatment agent or a silicone-based surface treatment agent such as polydimethylsiloxane and triethoxysilylethyl polydimethylsiloxyethyl dimethicone.

[0457] For example, isopropyl triisostearoyl titanate treated pigment is a pigment treated with at least isopropyl triisostearoyl titanate (ITT). Isopropyl triisostearoyl titanate treated pigment may be treated only with isopropyl triisostearoyl titanate (ITT), or treated with isopropyl triisostearoyl titanate (ITT) and at least one additional surface treatment agent such as a fluorinated surface treatment agent or a silicone-based surface treatment agent such as polydimethylsiloxane and triethoxysilylethyl polydimethylsiloxyethyl dimethicone.

[0458] Examples include isopropyl triisostearyl titanate treated pigments sold, for example, by KOBO under the trade name BWYO-12 (iron oxide CI 77492 and isopropyl titanium triisostearate), BWRO-12 (iron oxide CI 77491 and isopropyl titanium triisostearate), BWBO-12 (iron oxide CI 77499 and isopropyl titanium triisostearate), and / or TiO2 CR-50 12 (titanium dioxide CI 77891 coated with aluminium and isopropyl titanium triisostearate).
