Abstract:
A film-forming, aqueous phase, topical application composition comprisingi) a hydrophilic gelling agent chosen from water-soluble and water-dispersible terephthalic copolyester oligomers comprising dicarboxylate repeat units of formula (I):[--CO--A--CO--O--(CH.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 O).sub.n --] (I)whereinA comprises 1,4-phenylene and sulfo-1,3-phenylene groups,n ranges from 1 to 4,at least 35 mol % of said units of formula (I) are units of formula (I), wherein A is a 1,4-phenylene group and n is equal to 1, andat least 7 mol % of the said units of formula (I) are units of formula (I), wherein A is a sulfo-1,3-phenylene group, andthe weight-average molecular mass of said terephthalic copolyester oligomers is less than 20,000, andii) at least one silicone compound as an aqueous phase emulsion, wherein said composition does not comprise 2% by weight, with respect to the total weight of the composition, of aminosilicone.
