In a suitable embodiment, the degree of substitution of the hydroxyalkylation is approximately 0.08 to 0.3. The degree of substitution is the average number of substituted OH groups in the starch molecule per anhydroglucose unit. The hydroxyalkylation of a starch can be induced by reacting a native starch with alkylene oxides having the appropriate number of carbon atoms, including, but not limited to, hydroxypropylation by reacting starch with propylene oxide.

[0134] The composition of Inventive Example 1 represents the composition according to the present invention.

[0135] The composition of comparative example 1 does not include component (ii).

[0136] The composition of comparative example 2 does not include component (i) nor the component (ii).

[0137] The composition of comparative example 3 does not include component (i).

[0138] The composition of comparative example 4 comprises more than 1.5% by weight of the component (iii).

[0139] Preparation process:

[0140] The compositions listed above were prepared as follows: 1. Phase A: Introduction of hydroxypropyl starch phosphate (if present), sodium carboxymethyl starch (if present) into water at 85 °C under stirring at 400 rpm until a homogeneous phase A is obtained. 2. Phase B: mixture of C14-22 alcohols (and) C12-20 alkyl glucoside, cetyl alcohol, isopropyl myristate, C15-19 alkane, Euphorbia cerifera (candelilla) wax and Astrocaryum murumuru seed butter (if present) with stirring at 80 °C to obtain a clear oily phase B. 3. Introduction of phase B into phase A at 70 °C with stirring at 900 rpm for 15 minutes to obtain a mixture. 4. Introduction of sodium starch polyacrylate, crosslinked polyacrylate-6 polymer into the mixture obtained in step 3 with stirring until uniformity, then cooling to room temperature (25 °C). Composition evaluation

[0141] The stability of the composition of inventive example 1, the sensation of transformation and the anti-soaking aspect delivered by the compositions of inventive example 1 and comparative examples 1 to 4 were evaluated. Stability

[0142] The stability of the composition of inventive example 1 was evaluated by centrifugation at 25 °C, 900 rcf (or FCR, relative centrifugal force) for 1 hour. If there is phase separation at the end of centrifugation, the composition under test fails the stability test, and if there is no phase separation at the end of centrifugation, the composition under test passes the stability test.

[0143] Here, the expression "phase separation" means that the composition system is not stable, the aqueous phase being at least partially separated from the composition.

[0144] It has been found that the composition of inventive example 1 is stable, i.e. without phase separation after being subjected to centrifugation at 25 °C, 900 rcf (or FCR, relative centrifugal force) for 1 hour. Sensation of transformation

[0145] The sensation of transformation delivered by each composition of inventive example 1 and comparative examples 1 to 4 was evaluated by 10 skin experts during a blind trial.

[0146] To assess the sensation of transformation, the experts applied 0.3 g of each test composition to the skin. The degree of sensation of transformation delivered by each test composition was then rated on a scale of 1 to 5 according to the following standard, and the average of the scores was calculated for each composition.

[0147] 1: means no sensation of transformation,

[0148] 2: signifies a slight sensation of transformation,

[0149] 3: signifies a sensation of moderate transformation,

[0150] 4: signifies a moderate to strong sensation of transformation,

[0151] 5: signifies a very strong feeling of transformation.

[0152] During the test, dimethicone (and) polysilicone-11 were used as the standard sample and the sensation of transformation delivered was noted as 5.

[0153] In the context of the present invention, the higher the score value, the better the feeling of transformation. Anti-soap effect

[0154] The anti-soaking aspect delivered by each composition of inventive example 1 and comparative examples 1-4 was evaluated as follows.

[0155] 200 qL of each test composition were applied to a 6.3 cm² bioskin x 6.3 cm, distributed by massage with a finger mitt at 2 revolutions / s for 30 seconds and evaluated in terms of soap film intensity with a score of "0-5" by 10 skin experts according to the standard presented in [Fig. 1], in which 0 represents no soaping and 5 represents the most soaping. The average of the scores was then calculated for each composition. For the purposes of the present invention, the lower the score value, the better the anti-soaking aspect of the composition.

[0156] The results of the sensation of transformation and the anti-soaking appearance of the compositions of inventive example 1 and comparative examples 1-4 have been summarized in Table 3.

[0157] [Table 3]

[0158] [Tables3] Properties El. 1 EC. 1 EC. 2 EC. 3 EC. 4 Sensation of transformation 4.3 2.2 1.5 2.6 1.3 Anti-soaking aspect 0.9 3.2 3.5 4.2 3.8

[0159] It can be seen in Table 3 that the composition of inventive example 1 is stable and can deliver a desired transformation sensation and exhibit an anti-soap aspect.
