Composition for caring for a keratin material
A transparent anhydrous composition for caring for a keratin material comprises: a) at least one acetylated hyaluronic acid or its salt; and b) propylene glycol. And a non-therapeutic process for caring for a keratin material comprises applying the composition onto the keratin material.
1 . A composition for caring for a keratin material comprising:
a) from 0.01 wt. % to 20 wt. %, relative to the total weight of the composition of an acetylated hyaluronic acid salt; and
b) from 40 wt. % to 95 wt. %, relative to the total weight of the composition of propylene glycol,
wherein the composition is anhydrous and transparent.
2 . The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the salt of acetylated hyaluronic acid is selected from acetylated sodium hyaluronate, acetylated potassium hyaluronate, and a mixture thereof.
3 . The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the acetylated hyaluronic acid salt has an acetylation degree of from 0.5 to 1.
