Patent ID: 7138110

Claim:
A composition for coating keratinous fibres comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable medium, at least one volatile solvent and a nonvolatile fraction comprising: at least one polymer capable of adhering to the keratinous fibres, first solid particles comprising a first at least one amorphous material which is solid at 25° C. and exhibits a glass transition temperature greater than or equal to 60° C., and optionally second solid particles comprising a second material, different from the first material, said second solid particles not being capable of coalescing at a temperature of less than or equal to 40° C.; wherein the first and, where appropriate, the second solid particles are present in the composition in an amount such that the volume fraction of the first solid particles and, where appropriate, of the second solid particles is greater than or equal to 50% of the total volume of the nonvolatile fraction of the composition, and the volume fraction of the first solid particles is greater than or equal to 30% of the total volume fraction of the first and second solid particles, and wherein the keratinous fibers are chosen from natural eyelashes, false eyelashes, hair, and wigs.
