Abstract

The present invention relates to an anhydrous composition comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable medium: a) at least hydrophobic silica aerogel particles with a specific surface area per unit of mass (S M ) ranging from 500 to 1500 m 2 /g, preferably from 600 to 1200 m 2 /g and better still from 600 to 800 m 2 /g, and a size expressed as the mean volume diameter (D[0.5]) ranging from 1 to 30 μm; b) at least one solid fatty substance; c) at least one oil; the said composition having a hardness measured at 32° C. and at a humidity of 40% ranging from 15 kPa to 150 kPa and preferably ranging from 20 kPa to 100 kPa. The present invention also relates to a cosmetic process for treating and/or caring for human keratin materials, characterized in that it consists in applying to the surface of the keratin material at least one composition as defined previously. The present invention also relates to a cosmetic process for treating human perspiration and/or perspiration-related body odor, which consists in applying to the surface of a human keratin material at least one composition as defined previously comprising at least one deodorant active agent and/or one antiperspirant active agent.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. An anhydrous composition comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable medium:
a) at least hydrophobic silica aerogel particles with a specific surface area per unit of mass (SM) ranging from 500 to 1500 m 2 /g and a size expressed as the mean volume diameter (D [0.5] ) ranging from 1 to 30 μm;
b) at least one solid fatty substance selected from the group consisting of waxes and pasty fatty substances, and mixtures thereof;
c) at least one oil; the said composition having a hardness measured at 32° C. and at a humidity of 40% ranging from 15 kPa to 150 kPa;
and wherein the anhydrous composition contains less than 0.5% by weight of residual water provided by the mixed ingredients of said composition.

2. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the hydrophobic silica aerogel particles have a specific surface area per unit of mass ranging from 600 to 1200 m 2 /g.

3. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the hydrophobic silica aerogel particles have a size, expressed as the mean volume diameter, ranging from 5 to 25 μm.

4. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the hydrophobic silica aerogel particles have a specific surface area per unit of mass (S M ) ranging from 600 to 800 m 2 /g and a size expressed as the mean volume diameter (D[0.5]) ranging from 5 to 20 μm.

5. The composition according to claim 4 , wherein the hydrophobic silica aerogel particles a size expressed as the mean volume diameter (D[0.5]) ranging from 5 to 15 μm.

6. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the hydrophobic silica aerogel particles have a tamped density (ρ) ranging from 0.04 g/cm 3 to 0.10 g/cm 3 .

7. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the hydrophobic silica aerogel particles have a specific surface area per unit of volume S V ranging from 5 to 60 m 2 /cm 3 .

8. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the hydrophobic silica aerogel particles have an oil-absorbing capacity, measured at the wet point, ranging from 5 to 18 ml/g of particles.

9. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the hydrophobic silica aerogel particles are surface-modified trimethylsilyl silica particles.

10. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein it contains less than 2% volatile silicone oil.

11. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the solid fatty substance is chosen from triglycerides of waxes, and mixtures thereof.

12. Composition according to claim 1 , wherein it contains at least one antiperspirant active agent and/or one deodorant active agent.

13. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the at least hydrophobic silica aerogel particles have a specific surface area per unit of mass (S M ) ranging from 600 to 800 m 2 /g, and the said composition having a hardness measured at 32° C. and at a humidity of 40% ranging from 20 kPa to 100 kPa.

14. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the hydrophobic silica aerogel particles have a size, expressed as the mean volume diameter, ranging from 5 to 20 μm.

15. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the hydrophobic silica aerogel particles have a size, expressed as the mean volume diameter, ranging from 5 to 15 μm.

16. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the hydrophobic silica aerogel particles have a tamped density (ρ) ranging from 0.05 g/cm 3 to 0.08 g/cm 3 .

17. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the hydrophobic silica aerogel particles have a specific surface area per unit of volume S V ranging from 15 to 40 m 2 /cm 3 .

18. A cosmetic process for treating human keratin materials, wherein it consists in applying to the surface of the keratin material at least one composition as defined in claim 1 .
