Patent ID: 8114388

Claim:
A goniochromatic/light reflecting cosmetic makeup composition, comprising: (a) at least one goniochromatic coloring agent, wherein said at least one goniochromatic coloring agent is such that a variation Dh of the hue angle thereof of at least 30° is observed on a layer of such cosmetic makeup composition, for an illumination at 45° and a variation of the angle of observation of between 0° and 80°, and wherein said at least one goniochromatic coloring agent is present in an amount ranging from 0.1% to 20% of the total weight of the composition; and (b) an amount of light reflective particles different from said at least one goniochromatic coloring agent, wherein the light reflective particles are particles of a synthetic substrate made from glasses, the light reflective particles are at least partially coated with at least one layer of at least one metal or metal oxide, said light reflective particles not being greater than 250 μm in size, and being present in the composition in an amount ranging from 0.1% to 20% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition, formulated into (c) a topically applicable, physiologically acceptable medium therefor, said composition having a mean gloss greater than or equal to 30 and creating an optical volumizing effect once applied to a support or a substrate.
