Claims

Demands

1. Cosmetic composition comprising, in a physiologically acceptable medium, flattened porous ceramic particles, having a flattening property (f) of at least 0.3, preferably of at least 0.5, and preferably of at least 0.

7.

2. Composition according to claim 1, wherein the flattened porous ceramic particles are alumina particles.

3. Composition according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the flattened porous ceramic particles have a diameter (d) greater than 15 microns, preferably greater than 20 microns.

4. Composition according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the flattened porous ceramic particles have a porosity of about 5% to about 60%, preferably of about 10% to about 50%.

5. Composition according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the pores of the flattened porous ceramic particles have a size of about 50 nm to about 1000 nm.

6. Composition according to any one of the preceding claims, in the form of a water-in-oil emulsion.

7. Composition according to any one of the preceding claims, in the form of a skin care composition, preferably a moisturizer.
