OIL-IN-WATER EMULSION COMPRISING A FATTY ALCOHOL, A POLY(OXYETHYLENE) ALKYL ETHER, A WAX AND A WATER-SOLUBLE POLYSACCHARIDE

摘要

The present invention relates to a composition in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable medium: A) a continuous aqueous phase, and B) an oily phase dispersed in said aqueous phase and comprising at least one hydrocarbon oil; C) at least one mixture consisting of: i) at least one non-ionic surfactant selected among the fatty alcohols having 8 to 30 carbon atoms, and ii) at least two fatty alcohols of C8-30 oxyethylenes and/or oxypropylenes; D) at least one wax with melting point greater than 45°C comprising one or more ester compounds with C₄₀-C₇₀ and not comprising ester compounds with C₂₀-C_39, in a quantity from 1 to 10% by weight with respect to the total weight of the composition; and E) at least one water-soluble polysaccharide; said composition having a viscosity measured at 25°C by means of a Rheomat RM 180 viscometer at 200 s^-1 at ambient temperature at mobile 3 or mobile 4 after 10 minutes, ranging from 1200 to 8000 mPa.s.
