Abstract

Provided herein is an anhydrous cosmetic composition comprising at least one organic structuring agent, at least one modified starch, at least one wood meal, at least one surfactant, and at least one anhydrous liquid phase. Also provided is a method for cleansing and/or conditioning keratin materials, comprising applying at least one of the anhydrous cosmetic compositions to the keratin materials.

Claims (31)

1. An anhydrous cosmetic composition comprising

at least one organic structuring agent,

at least one modified starch,

at least one wood meal,

at least one surfactant, and

at least one anhydrous liquid phase,

wherein the at least one wood meal is present in a total amount ranging from 1.5% to 15% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition; and

wherein the at least one modified starch is present in a total amount ranging from 3% to 25% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition.

2. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one organic structuring agent comprises at least one type of particles.

3. The composition according to claim 2 , wherein the at least one type of particle is chosen from thermoplastic material particles chosen from polyamides, polymers comprising at least one monomer chosen from acrylonitrile, vinylidene chloride, vinyl chloride, optionally expanded acrylic, and optionally expanded styrene monomer, and microporous microspheres.

4. The composition according to claim 3 , wherein the at least one type of particle is chosen from hollow particles of an expanded copolymer of vinylidene chloride and acrylonitrile, and hollow particles of an expanded copolymer of vinylidene chloride, acrylonitrile and methyl methacrylate.

5. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one organic structuring agent is present in a total amount ranging from 1% to 10% by weight relative to the total weight of the cosmetic composition.

6. The composition according to claim 5 , wherein the at least one organic structuring agent is present in a total amount ranging from 3% to 4% by weight relative to the total weight of the cosmetic composition.

7. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one modified starch is chosen from potato starches.

8. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one wood meal is spruce meal.

9. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one modified starch and the at least one wood meal are present in a total combined amount ranging from 10% to 20% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition.

10. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one modified starch is present in a total amount ranging from 4% to 15% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition.

11. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one surfactant is chosen from cationic, anionic, non-ionic, and amphoteric surfactants.

12. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one surfactant is present in a total amount ranging from 1% to 40% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition.

13. The composition according to claim 12 , wherein the at least one surfactant is present in a total amount ranging 4% to 20% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition.

14. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one anhydrous liquid phase is chosen from monoalcohols, polyols, and fatty substances.

15. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one anhydrous liquid phase is present in a total amount of at least 50% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition.

16. The composition according to claim 15 , wherein the at least one anhydrous liquid phase is present in a total amount ranging from 50% to 95% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition.

17. A method for cleansing and/or conditioning keratin materials, comprising applying at least one anhydrous cosmetic composition to the keratin materials, wherein the at least one anhydrous composition comprises

at least one organic structuring agent,

at least one modified starch,

at least one wood meal,

at least one surfactant, and

at least one anhydrous liquid phase,

wherein the at least one wood meal is present in a total amount ranging from 1.5% to 15% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition; and

wherein the at least one modified starch is present in a total amount ranging from 3% to 25% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition.
