Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A cosmetic composition comprising a cosmetically acceptable carrier and at least 2.5% by weight of calcined kaolin relative to the total weight of the composition, a cosmetic method for reducing the gloss of the skin, and the use of calcined kaolin as a mattifying agent in a cosmetic composition.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1 . A method for reducing skin gloss consisting of applying to a skin surface a composition having a cosmetically acceptable carrier and an effective amount of flash calcined kaolin, the effective amount being at least 2.5% by weight of flash calcined kaolin relative to a total weight of the composition having the cosmetically acceptable carrier; wherein the flash calcined kaolin has: a specific surface area (BET) between 8 and 14 m 2 /g, a sebum absorption of at least 60 mL/100 g of flash calcined kaolin, a water absorption of at least about 60 mL/100 g, and a mean particle size as determined by sedimentation (d 50 ) ranging from about 0.1 μm to about 4.0 μm. 2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition does not comprise any oil-derived mattifying agent. 3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition comprises less than 0.5 wt % of a mattifying agent different from the flash calcined kaolin. 4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the effective amount of flash calcined kaolin is applied to the skin surface and improves skin matte.
