Patent ID: 7767214

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 metallic compound, said light reflective particles having a spectral reflectance in the visible spectrum of at least 70% and 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.
