COSMETIC COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING THE COMPOSITIONS

摘要

Cosmetic compositions which, when applied to the skin, mask skin imperfections and provide more uniform skin tone are described. The compositions can be formulated to address the needs of users having a specific skin tone. The compositions include one or more pigments (e.g., iron oxides) and may also include reflective particles such as mica coated with iron oxide and/or titanium dioxide. The compositions can be oil-in-water emulsions comprising a discontinuous oil phase dispersed in a continuous aqueous phase. The compositions can also include emollients, one or more skin sheen additives, a film former (e.g., polycyclopentadiene) and isohexadecane. Compositions formulated for lighter skin tones can include one or more sunscreen agents. The compositions can be formulated to have high color transfer resistance. Methods of making the compositions and methods of treatment comprising applying the compositions to the skin are also described.
