摘要

The invention relates to the field of essential goods and, in particular, the field of cosmetics, hygiene and dermopharmaceutics. More specifically, the invention relates to aqueous, fluid or gel cosmetic compositions which are intended to be applied to the skin, mucous membranes or teguments. The inventive compositions are characterised in that they contain, by way of an active principle, a gel-forming and/or thickening agent which is formed by a combination of three components, namely: (i) an ammonium acrylate and polyacrylamide copolymer and/or an anionic acrylic copolymer, (ii) lecithins or phospholipids of plant origin and (iii) a polyglyceryl acylate, together with or mixed with excipients suitable for topical use. Said compositions can comprise other active principles suitable for use in cosmetics. The invention also relates to the use of the inventive compositions in cosmetics or dermopharmaceutics for the production of emulsions, gels or creams which are perfectly stable.
