Abstract

An aqueous composition, for alleviating at least one problem that conventional aqueous cosmetic compositions, includes (A) at least one selected from the group consisting of a cross-linked product of a hydroxyalkyl modified starch with a carbon number of 2 to 5, a cross-linked product of a hydroxyalkyl modified starch with a carbon number of 2 to 5 and an acyl modified starch with a carbon number of 2 to 18 and a cross-linked product of an acyl modified starch with a carbon number of 2 to 18; and (B) a water-soluble polymer material. When the water-soluble polymer material (B) is an association type poly(meth)acrylate polymer, a nonionic or cationic cellulose polymer, a poly(meth)acrylic acid polymer or xanthan gum, the aqueous composition exhibits excellent viscosity increase ratio and temporal stability.

Claims (20)

1. An aqueous cosmetic composition comprising:

0.5 to 5.5 weight % of at least one starch selected from the group consisting of a cross-linked product of a hydroxyalkyl modified starch with a carbon number of 2 to 5, a cross-linked product of a hydroxyalkyl modified starch with a carbon number of 2 to 5 and an acyl modified starch with a carbon number of 2 to 18, and a cross-linked product of an acyl modified starch with a carbon number of 2 to 18, based on total weight of the aqueous composition,

at least one water-soluble polymer material such that the weight ratio of the at least one starch to the water-soluble polymer in the aqueous composition is from 0.5:1 to 30:1.

2. The aqueous cosmetic composition according to claim 1 wherein the at least one water-soluble polymer material is selected from the group consisting of poly(meth)acrylate polymer, nonionic cellulose polymer, cationic cellulose polymer, poly(meth)acrylic acid polymer and xanthan gum.

3. The aqueous cosmetic composition according to claim 2 wherein the at least one water-soluble polymer material is poly(meth)acrylate polymer and the poly(meth)acrylate polymer is an association type polymer.

4. The aqueous cosmetic composition according to claim 3 wherein the association type polymer is an anionic polymer.

5. The aqueous cosmetic composition according to claim 3 wherein the association type polymer is a cationic polymer.

6. The aqueous cosmetic composition according to claim 2 wherein the at least one water-soluble polymer material is a nonionic cellulose polymer.

7. The aqueous cosmetic composition according to claim 6 wherein the nonionic cellulose polymer is hydroxyalkyl cellulose.
