(en)The present invention relates to a cosmetic composition comprising, in a physiologically acceptable medium, at least water, at least alkylcellulose, at least a first nonvolatile oil chosen from silicone oils and/or fluoro oils, and at least a second hydrocarbon-based nonvolatile oil chosen from C10-C26 alcohols, preferably monoalcohols; monoesters, dieters or triesters of a C2-C8 monocarboxylic or polycarboxylic acid and of a C2-C8 alcohol, which are optionally hydroxylated; and polyesters of a C2-C8 polyol and of one or more C2-C8 carboxylic acids.

7.Description:
(en)The present invention is directed toward proposing cosmetic compositions comprising alkylcellulose, which are intended in particular for making up and/or caring for the lips or the skin, especially the lips, which are capable of producing a deposit, especially a makeup deposit, which shows good cosmetic properties, especially in terms of gloss, comfort and absence of tackiness.
The compositions targeted according to the invention are more specifically aqueous compositions, which are particularly appreciated for formulating water-soluble dyestuffs.
In general, cosmetic compositions need to afford an esthetic effect when applied to the skin and/or the lips, and to maintain this esthetic effect over time.
In fact, the production of an esthetic effect, after applying a cosmetic composition, results from an assembly of properties intrinsic to the composition which are expressed in terms of makeup performance, cosmetic properties such as comfort on application, makeup precision, makeup uniformity, gloss and/or wear property of the gloss over time.
In particular, producing a homogeneous composition that is stable over time, and improving the gloss and/or the wear property over time of cosmetic products, once applied to the skin or the lips, is an ongoing concern of formulators working in the field of lipsticks, in stick form or in gloss form for the lips, and other skincare and/or lipcare products.
Ethylcellulose is already known for its capacity, when it is dissolved in sufficient amount in cosmetic and/or therapeutic compositions, to improve the adherence and the wear property of the resulting films. It has also been demonstrated that ethylcellulose dissolved in sufficient amount in compositions makes it possible, by virtue of its properties as a film-forming agent, to facilitate the formation of a film on the skin and/or the lips, and to improve the water resistance of this film.
Unfortunately, ethylcellulose, and alkylcelluloses in general (with an alkyl group comprising from 1 to 6 carbon atoms), is of limited solubility in the majority of the solvents commonly used in cosmetic and/or dermatological formulations. In general, monoalcohols containing from 2 to 8 carbon atoms, such as ethanol, butanol, methanol or isopropanol, are preferred for dissolving sufficient amounts of ethylcellulose in cosmetic or pharmaceutical compositions. Evaporation of the C 2 -C 8 monoalcohols leads, after application of the corresponding cosmetic composition to the skin or the lips, firstly to concentration of the deposit and secondly to the formation of a coat on the surface of the skin or the lips that has a very good wear property. For example, document WO 96/36310 proposes cosmetic compositions especially comprising ethylcellulose dissolved in ethyl alcohol (SDA 38B-190 or SDA 40B-190 solvents).
However, these volatile monoalcohols have the drawback of being potentially irritant to the skin and/or the lips, and consequently may prove to be detrimental in the case of repeated use on the skin.
In order to overcome this problem, it has been proposed in document U.S. Pat. No. 5,908,631 to use, as an alternative to C 2 -C 8 monoalcohols, a certain number of solvents for ethylcellulose, such as lanolin oil, certain triglycerides, certain propylene glycol or neopentyl glycol esters, isostearyl lactate, and mixtures thereof.
Unfortunately, replacing these C 2 -C 8 monoalcohols, which are volatile compounds, with these nonvolatile solvents may on the other hand prove to be detrimental in terms of comfort and of tackiness of the resulting deposit.
Consequently, there is still a need for cosmetic compositions, which are free of C 2 -C 8 monoalcohol, comprising a sufficient amount of alkylcellulose, and which are capable of forming on the skin and/or the lips a deposit that has satisfactory gloss and comfort properties and that is not tacky.
In the context of caring for the lips, it is more particularly desirable to introduce into lipstick compositions active agents such as moisturizers, for example in order to contribute toward moisturizing the lips and for the wear comfort of the deposit.
However, lipstick formulations (whether they are solid or liquid) are generally anhydrous, and the introduction of active agents such as glycerol, for example, is the cause of stability problems of the composition (exudation). The introduction of water into standard architectures causes problems of instability over time of the compositions (i.e. they show phase separation or exudation phenomena).
There is more particularly a need for compositions for making up and/or caring for the skin and/or the lips, comprising a sufficient amount of alkylcellulose, which are homogeneous and stable over time (which do not form grains and do not undergo phase separation), which are easy to apply, which allow the production of a thin, light, uniform, glossy and comfortable deposit that, in particular, is sparingly tacky or non-tacky, and which, in certain embodiments, have a satisfactory level of wear property.
The object of the present invention is, precisely, to satisfy these needs.
As emerges from the examples presented below, the inventors have discovered that the abovementioned expectations can be satisfied by formulating the alkylcellulose in the form of a dispersion in water with a mixture of specific oils other than C 2 -C 8 monoalcohols.
Thus, according to a first of its aspects, a subject of the present invention is a cosmetic composition comprising, in a physiologically acceptable medium:
at least water, in particular at least 5% by weight of water; at least alkylcellulose, the alkyl residue of which comprises between 1 and 6 carbon atoms and preferably between 1 and 3 carbon atoms, preferably ethylcellulose; at least a first nonvolatile oil chosen from silicone oils and/or fluoro oils; and at least a second hydrocarbon-based nonvolatile oil, chosen from:
C 10 -C 26 alcohols, preferably monoalcohols; optionally hydroxylated monoesters, diesters or triesters of a C 2 -C 8 monocarboxylic or polycarboxylic acid and of a C 2 -C 8 alcohol; esters of a C 2 -C 8 polyol and of one or more C 2 -C 8 carboxylic acids.

In a particular embodiment, a subject of the present invention is a cosmetic composition comprising, in a physiologically acceptable medium:

at least water, in particular at least 5% by weight of water; at least alkylcellulose, the alkyl residue of which comprises between 1 and 6 carbon atoms and preferably between 1 and 3 carbon atoms, preferably ethylcellulose; at least a first nonvolatile oil chosen from silicone oils and/or fluoro oils; and at least a second hydrocarbon-based nonvolatile oil, chosen from:
C 10 -C 26 alcohols, preferably monoalcohols; optionally hydroxylated monoesters, diesters or triesters of a C 2 -C 8 monocarboxylic or polycarboxylic acid and of a C 2 -C 8 alcohol; esters of a C 2 -C 8 polyol and of one or more C 2 -C 8 carboxylic acids, and
at least a sodium lauryl sulfate; and optionally and additional nonionic or anionic surfactant.

According to one particular embodiment of the invention, a cosmetic composition according to the invention also comprises at least one silicone gum.
According to one particular embodiment, a cosmetic composition according to the invention also comprises at least one organopolysiloxane elastomer.
According to yet another particular embodiment, a composition according to the invention also comprises at least one silicone resin.
According to yet another particular embodiment, a composition according to the invention also comprises at least one active agent chosen from moisturizers, cicatrizing agents and antiaging agents.
Advantageously, a cosmetic composition according to the invention is homogeneous, stable (no exudation or phase separation) over time (especially after 1 month at room temperature), easy to apply to the skin and/or the lips, and produces a uniform deposit that shows good properties in terms of gloss, comfort (the deposit is thin and light), and non-tacky or sparingly tacky, and, in certain embodiments, contributes toward caring for the lips.
In particular, in the context of a composition for caring for the lips, since the composition according to the invention comprises water, this water lends itself particularly to the introduction of hydrophilic active agents into the composition, in particular without any problem of stability of the composition and/or of the active agent.
Moreover, since the deposit on the lips of a composition according to the invention shows a good level of wear property, this ensures the remanence of the active agent on the lips and thus improves the care efficacy (moisturizing, cicatrizing and/or antiaging effect) on the lips.
Advantageously, a composition according to the invention is easy to apply, and can lead to precise application of makeup to the contours of the lips.
A composition according to the invention also proves to be particularly suitable for the use of water-soluble dyes.
As emerges from the examples below, the combination of the oils under consideration according to the invention proves to be particularly advantageous for formulating alkylcelluloses, preferably such as ethylcellulose, in said composition.
A composition according to the invention advantageously allows the use of an effective amount of alkylcellulose. For the purposes of the present invention, the term “effective amount” means an amount that is sufficient to obtain the expected effect, as described previously.
In particular, a composition according to the invention comprises at least 1% and particularly preferably at least 4% by weight of alkylcellulose (preferentially ethylcellulose) solids relative to the total weight of the composition.
Particularly preferably, a composition according to the invention comprises from 4% to 60% by weight of alkylcellulose (preferably ethylcellulose) solids, more preferably from 5% to 30% by weight and more preferably still from 5% to 20% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.
The term “physiologically acceptable medium” is intended to denote a medium that is particularly suitable for the application of a composition according to the invention to the skin and/or the lips.
Preferably, the composition according to the invention is liquid.
The term “liquid” means a composition that is capable of flowing under its own weight, at room temperature (20° C.) and at atmospheric pressure (760 mmHg), as opposed to “solid” compositions.
A composition according to the invention is preferably in the form of an emulsion of oil in an aqueous phase.
Preferably, the cosmetic composition according to the invention is a liquid lipstick, for instance a gloss.
According to one particular embodiment, a composition of the invention comprises less than 5% by weight of silicone surfactant(s), in particular less than 4% by weight, especially less than 3% by weight, more particularly less than 2% by weight and in particular less than 1% by weight, or even is totally free of silicone surfactant.
According to another of its aspects, a subject of the present patent application is a cosmetic process for making up and/or caring for the lips and/or the skin, in particular the lips, comprising at least one step that consists in applying to the lips and/or the skin at least one composition as defined previously.

A composition according to the invention comprises at least alkylcellulose, the alkyl residue of which comprises between 1 and 6 carbon atoms and preferably between 1 and 3 carbon atoms, preferably ethylcellulose.
According to one particularly preferred embodiment, the alkylcellulose (preferentially ethylcellulose) is present in a composition according to the invention in a content (solids) ranging from 1% to 60% by weight and in particular greater than or equal to 4% by weight.
Particularly preferably, the composition according to the invention comprises from 4% to 60% by weight of alkylcellulose solids, more preferably from 5% to 30% by weight and more preferably still from 5% to 20% by weight, relative to the total weight of said composition.
The alkylcellulose is a cellulose alkyl ether comprising a chain formed from β-anhydroglucose units linked together via acetal bonds. Each anhydroglucose unit contains three replaceable hydroxyl groups, all or some of these hydroxyl groups being able to react according to the following reaction:
RON a +C 2 H 5 Cl→ROC 2 H 5 +NaCl, in which R represents a cellulose radical.

Advantageously, the alkylcellulose is chosen from methylcellulose, ethylcellulose and propylcellulose.
According to one particularly preferred embodiment, the alkylcellulose is ethylcellulose.
It is a cellulose ethyl ether.
Total substitution of the three hydroxyl groups would lead for each anhydroglucose unit to a degree of substitution of 3, in other words to a content of alkoxy groups of 54.88%
The ethylcellulose polymers used in a cosmetic composition according to the invention are preferentially polymers with a degree of substitution with ethoxy groups ranging from 2.5 to 2.6 per anhydroglucose unit, in other words comprising a content of ethoxy groups ranging from 44% to 50%.

Pasty Fatty Substances
The composition under consideration according to the invention may also comprise at least one pasty fatty substance.
For the purposes of the present invention, the term “pasty fatty substance” is intended to denote a lipophilic fatty compound that undergoes a reversible solid/liquid change of state, exhibiting anisotropic crystal organization in the solid state, and that comprises, at a temperature of 23° C., a liquid fraction and a solid fraction.
In other words, the starting melting point of the pasty compound can be less than 23° C. The liquid fraction of the pasty compound measured at 23° C. can represent 9% to 97% by weight of the compound. This liquid fraction at 23° C. preferably represents between 15% and 85% and more preferably between 40% and 85% by weight.
For the purposes of the invention, the melting point corresponds to the temperature of the most endothermic peak observed on thermal analysis (DSC) as described in standard ISO 11357-3; 1999. The melting point of a pasty substance or of a wax may be measured using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), for example the calorimeter sold under the name MDSC 2920 by the company TA Instruments.
The measuring protocol is as follows:
A sample of 5 mg of paste or wax (depending on the case) placed in a crucible is subjected to a first temperature rise passing from −20° C. to 100° C., at the heating rate of 10° C./minute, then is cooled from 100° C. to −20° C. at a cooling rate of 10° C./minute and finally subjected to a second temperature rise passing from −20° C. to 100° C. at a heating rate of 5° C./minute. During the second temperature rise, the variation in the difference between the power absorbed by the empty crucible and the crucible containing the sample of paste or wax as a function of the temperature is measured. The melting point of the compound is the temperature value corresponding to the top of the peak of the curve representing the variation in the difference in power absorbed as a function of the temperature.
The liquid fraction by weight of the pasty compound at 23° C. is equal to the ratio of the heat of fusion consumed at 23° C. to the enthalpy of fusion of the pasty compound.
The heat of fusion of the pasty compound is the enthalpy consumed by the compound in order to pass from the solid state to the liquid state. The pasty compound is said to be in the solid state when all of its mass is in crystalline solid form. The pasty compound is said to be in the liquid state when all of its mass is in liquid form.
The heat of fusion of the pasty compound is equal to the area under the curve of the thermogram obtained using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), such as the calorimeter sold under the name MDSC 2920 by the company TA Instrument, with a temperature rise of 5 or 10° C. per minute, according to standard ISO 11357-3:1999. The heat of fusion of the pasty compound is the amount of energy required to make the compound change from the solid state to the liquid state. It is expressed in J/g.
The heat of fusion consumed at 23° C. is the amount of energy absorbed by the sample to change from the solid state to the state that it has at 23° C., constituted of a liquid fraction and a solid fraction.
The liquid fraction of the pasty compound measured at 32° C. preferably represents from 30% to 100% by weight of the compound, preferably from 50% to 100%, more preferably from 60% to 100% by weight of the compound. When the liquid fraction of the pasty compound measured at 32° C. is equal to 100%, the temperature of the end of the melting range of the pasty compound is less than or equal to 32° C.
The liquid fraction of the pasty compound measured at 32° C. is equal to the ratio of the heat of fusion consumed at 32° C. to the heat of fusion of the pasty compound. The heat of fusion consumed at 32° C. is calculated in the same way as the enthalpy of fusion consumed at 23° C.
The pasty fatty substance is preferably chosen from synthetic compounds and compounds of plant origin. A pasty fatty substance may be obtained by synthesis from starting materials of plant origin.
The pasty fatty substance is advantageously chosen from:

Preferably, the total amount of semicrystalline polymer(s) represents from 2% to 20% by weight, for example from 3% to 15% and better still from 4% to 10% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition.
For the purposes of the invention, the term “polymers” means compounds comprising at least two repeating units, preferably at least three repeating units and more especially at least ten repeating units.
For the purposes of the invention, the term “semicrystalline polymer” means polymers comprising a crystallizable portion and an amorphous portion and having a first-order reversible change of phase temperature, in particular of melting (solid-liquid transition). The crystallizable portion is either a side chain (or pendent chain) or a block in the backbone.
When the crystallizable portion of the semicrystalline polymer is a block of the polymer backbone, this crystallizable block has a chemical nature different than that of the amorphous blocks; in this case, the semicrystalline polymer is a block copolymer, for example of the diblock, triblock or multiblock type. When the crystallizable portion is a chain that is pendent on the backbone, the semicrystalline polymer may be a homopolymer or a copolymer.
The terms “organic compound” and “having an organic structure” mean compounds containing carbon atoms and hydrogen atoms and optionally heteroatoms such as S, O, N or P, alone or in combination.
The melting point of the semicrystalline polymer is preferably less than 150° C.
The melting point of the semicrystalline polymer is preferably greater than or equal to 30° C. and less than 100° C. More preferably, the melting point of the semicrystalline polymer is preferably greater than or equal to 30° C. and less than 70° C.
The semicrystalline polymer(s) according to the invention are solid at room temperature (25° C.) and atmospheric pressure (760 mmHg), with a melting point of greater than or equal to 30° C. The melting point values correspond to the melting point measured using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), such as the calorimeter sold under the name DSC 30 by the company Mettler, with a temperature rise of 5 or 10° C. per minute. (The melting point under consideration is the point corresponding to the temperature of the most endothermic peak of the thermogram).
The semicrystalline polymer(s) according to the invention preferably have a melting point that is higher than the temperature of the keratinous support intended to receive said composition, in particular the skin or the lips.
According to the invention, the semicrystalline polymers are advantageously soluble in the fatty phase, especially to at least 1% by weight, at a temperature that is higher than their melting point. Besides the crystallizable chains or blocks, the blocks of the polymers are amorphous.
For the purposes of the invention, the expression “crystallizable chain or block” means a chain or block which, if it were obtained alone, would change from the amorphous state to the crystalline state reversibly, depending on whether one is above or below the melting point. For the purposes of the invention, a “chain” is a group of atoms, which are pendent or lateral relative to the polymer backbone. A “block” is a group of atoms belonging to the backbone, this group constituting one of the repeating units of the polymer.
According to one preferred embodiment, the semicrystalline polymer is chosen from:
homopolymers and copolymers comprising units resulting from the polymerization of one or more monomers bearing crystallizable hydrophobic side chains, polymers bearing in the backbone at least one crystallizable block, polycondensates of aliphatic or aromatic or aliphatic/aromatic polyester type, copolymers of ethylene and propylene prepared via metallocene catalysis.

The semicrystalline polymers that may be used in the invention may in particular be chosen from:
block copolymers of polyolefins of controlled crystallization, whose monomers are described in EP-A-0 951 897, polycondensates, especially of aliphatic or aromatic polyester type or of aliphatic/aromatic polyester type, copolymers of ethylene and propylene prepared via metallocene catalysis, homopolymers or copolymers bearing at least one crystallizable side chain and homopolymers or copolymers bearing at least one crystallizable block in the backbone, for instance those described in document U.S. Pat. No. 5,156,911, homopolymers or copolymers bearing at least one crystallizable side chain, in particular bearing fluoro group(s), such as those described in document WO-A-01/19333, and mixtures thereof.

The polymers may also be graft polymers or star polymers. Preferably, the associative polyurethanes are triblock copolymers in which the hydrophilic block is a polyoxyethylene chain comprising from 50 to 1000 oxyethylene groups. In general, associative polyurethanes comprise a urethane bond between the hydrophilic blocks, whence arises the name.

The term “organopolysiloxane elastomer” means a supple, deformable organopolysiloxane with viscoelastic properties and especially the consistency of a sponge or a supple sphere. Its modulus of elasticity is such that this material withstands deformation and has limited stretchability and contractability. This material is capable of regaining its original shape after stretching.
It is more particularly a crosslinked organopolysiloxane elastomer.
Thus, the organopolysiloxane elastomer may be obtained by crosslinking addition reaction of diorganopolysiloxane containing at least one hydrogen bonded to silicon and of diorganopolysiloxane containing ethylenically unsaturated groups bonded to silicon, especially in the presence of a platinum catalyst; or by dehydrogenation crosslinking condensation reaction between a diorganopolysiloxane containing hydroxyl end groups and a diorganopolysiloxane containing at least one hydrogen bonded to silicon, especially in the presence of an organotin; or by crosslinking condensation reaction of a diorganopolysiloxane containing hydroxyl end groups and of a hydrolyzable organopolysilane; or by thermal crosslinking of organopolysiloxane, especially in the presence of an organoperoxide catalyst; or by crosslinking of organopolysiloxane via high-energy radiation such as gamma rays, ultraviolet rays or an electron beam.

Compound (A) is the base compound for the formation of organopolysiloxane elastomer, and the crosslinking is performed by addition reaction of compound (A) with compound (B) in the presence of the catalyst (C).
Compound (A) is in particular an organopolysiloxane containing at least two hydrogen atoms bonded to different silicon atoms in each molecule.

Compound (B) is advantageously a diorganopolysiloxane containing at least two lower alkenyl groups (for example C 2 -C 4 ); the lower alkenyl group may be chosen from vinyl, allyl and propenyl groups. These lower alkenyl groups may be located in any position of the organopolysiloxane molecule, but are preferably located at the ends of the organopolysiloxane molecule. The organopolysiloxane (B) may have a branched-chain, linear-chain, cyclic or network structure, but the linear-chain structure is preferred. Compound (B) may have a viscosity ranging from the liquid state to the gum state. Preferably, compound (B) has a viscosity of at least 100 centistokes at 25° C.
Besides the abovementioned alkenyl groups, the other organic groups bonded to the silicon atoms in compound (B) may be alkyl groups such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl or octyl; substituted alkyl groups such as 2-phenylethyl, 2-phenylpropyl or 3,3,3-trifluoropropyl; aryl groups such as phenyl, tolyl or xylyl; substituted aryl groups such as phenylethyl; and substituted monovalent hydrocarbon-based groups such as an epoxy group, a carboxylate ester group or a mercapto group.

In particular, the organopolysiloxane elastomer may be obtained by reaction of a dimethyl polysiloxane containing dimethylvinylsiloxy end groups and of methylhydrogenopolysiloxane containing trimethylsiloxy end groups, in the presence of a platinum catalyst.
Advantageously, the sum of the number of ethylenic groups per molecule in compound (B) and of the number of hydrogen atoms bonded to silicon atoms per molecule in compound (A) is at least 5.
It is advantageous for compound (A) to be added in an amount such that the molecular ratio between the total amount of hydrogen atoms bonded to silicon atoms in compound (A) and the total amount of all the ethylenically unsaturated groups in compound (B) is within the range from 1.5/1 to 20/1.

The term “non-emulsifying” defines organopolysiloxane elastomers not containing any hydrophilic chains, and in particular not containing any polyoxyalkylene units (especially polyoxyethylene or polyoxypropylene) or any polyglyceryl units.
The organopolysiloxane elastomer particles are conveyed in the form of a gel formed from an elastomeric organopolysiloxane included in at least one hydrocarbon-based oil and/or one silicone oil. In these gels, the organopolysiloxane particles are often nonspherical particles.

Silicone Resin
According to another particular embodiment, a composition according to the invention comprises at least one silicone resin.
More generally, the term “resin” means a compound whose structure is three-dimensional. “Silicone resins” are also referred to as “siloxane resins”. Thus, for the purposes of the present invention, a polydimethylsiloxane is not a silicone resin.
The nomenclature of silicone resins (also known as siloxane resins) is known under the name “MDTQ”, the resin being described as a function of the various siloxane monomer units it comprises, each of the letters “MDTQ” characterizing a type of unit.
The letter M represents the monofunctional unit of formula R1R2R3SiO 1/2 , the silicon atom being bonded to only one oxygen atom in the polymer comprising this unit.
The letter D means a difunctional unit R1R2SiO 2/2 in which the silicon atom is bonded to two oxygen atoms.
The letter T represents a trifunctional unit of formula R1SiO 3/2 .
Such resins are described, for example, in the Encyclopedia of Polymer Science and Engineering , vol. 15, John Wiley & Sons, New York, (1989), pp. 265-270, and U.S. Pat. No. 2,676,182, U.S. Pat. No. 3,627,851, U.S. Pat. No. 3,772,247, U.S. Pat. No. 5,248,739 or U.S. Pat. No. 5,082,706, U.S. Pat. No. 5,319,040, U.S. Pat. No. 5,302,685 and U.S. Pat. No. 4,935,484.
In the units M, D and T defined previously, R, namely R1 and R2, represents a hydrocarbon-based radical (especially alkyl) containing from 1 to 10 carbon atoms, a phenyl group, a phenylalkyl group or a hydroxyl group.
Finally, the letter Q means a tetrafunctional unit SiO 4/2 in which the silicon atom is bonded to four hydrogen atoms, which are themselves bonded to the rest of the polymer.
Various silicone resins with different properties may be obtained from these different units, the properties of these polymers varying as a function of the type of monomer (or unit), the nature and number of the radical R, the length of the polymer chain, the degree of branching and the size of the pendent chains.
As silicone resins that may be used in the compositions according to the invention, use may be made, for example, of silicone resins of MQ type, of T type or of MQT type.
According to one preferred embodiment, an MQ resin is used.

As silicone resins comprising MQ siloxysilicate units, mention may also be made of phenylalkylsiloxysilicate resins, such as phenylpropyldimethylsiloxysilicate (Silshine 151 sold by the company General Electric). The preparation of such resins is described especially in patent U.S. Pat. No. 5,817,302.

T Resins:
Examples of silicone resins of type T that may be mentioned include the polysilsesquioxanes of formula (RSiO 3/2 ) x (units T) in which x is greater than 100 and such that the group R is an alkyl group containing from 1 to 10 carbon atoms, said polysilsesquioxanes also possibly comprising Si—OH end groups.
Polymethylsilsesquioxane resins that may preferably be used are those in which R represents a methyl group, for instance those sold:

MQT Resins:
Resins comprising MQT units that are especially known are those mentioned in document U.S. Pat. No. 5,110,890.

According to another of its aspects, the invention relates to a lip balm (liquid or solid) or lipstick formed from a composition according to the invention also comprising at least one active agent chosen from moisturizers, cicatrizing agents and/or antiaging agents.
Since the deposit made with a composition according to the invention has a good level of wear property, this ensures the remanence of the active agent on the skin and/or the lips and thus improves the care efficacy (moisturizing, cicatrizing and/or antiaging effect) on the skin and/or the lips.

EXAMPLES 11 TO 13
Preparation of the MQTpr Siloxane Resins
The following resins are used:
MQ resin=an MQ resin of formula M 0.43 Q 0.57 and of Mn=3230 dissolved in xylene to a proportion of 70.8% by weight of solids. The MQ resin was manufactured according to the techniques described by Daudt in patent U.S. Pat. No. 2,676,182.
T Propyl resin=a propyl silsesquioxane resin at 74.8% by weight in toluene. The propyl silsesquioxane resin was obtained by hydrolysis of propyltrichlorosilane.
Preparation of the MQT Pr resins
An MQ resin, a T propyl resin, xylene and 1M KOH in water in the proportions presented in Table 1 are introduced into a 3-necked flask equipped with a stirrer, a temperature probe and Dean-Stark apparatus mounted with a condenser. Xylene is pre-introduced into the Dean-Stark apparatus so as to ensure maintenance of a level of solids of 50% in the reactor. The mixture in the reactor is refluxed (between 100 and 140° C.) for at least 3 hours. Any water formed in the reaction mixture is continuously removed and trapped in the form of an azeotrope in the Dean-Stark apparatus. After refluxing for 3 hours, the water is removed from the apparatus and heating is continued for a further 30 minutes. After cooling the mixture, an excess of acetic acid is added to neutralize the KOH in the mixture. The mixture is then filtered to remove the salts formed, by passing it through a filter under pressure. Solvent exchange is performed by heating the mixture in a rotary evaporator under vacuum. After removing the majority of the xylene, decamethylcyclopentasiloxane (or isododecane) is added while continuing to remove any residual aromatic solvent. The structures of the resulting siloxane resins are characterized by 29 Si NMR spectroscopy and GPC, and the results are summarized in Table 2 below.

Preparation Protocol
1) The aqueous dispersion of ethylcellulose is mixed with the nonvolatile polar oil with stirring, and the mixture is heated for 1 to 2 hours at 55° C.
2) The surfactant is added and the mixture is stirred at 55° C. until homogeneous.
3) The silicone resin is dispersed in the Polyphenyltrimethylsiloxy dimethylsiloxane (Wacker-Belsil PDM 1000 from Wacker) (Example 11) or in the Dimethicone (Wacker-Belsil DM 350 from Wacker) (Examples 12 and 13) at room temperature.
4) The mixture thus obtained is then added to the mixture containing the ethylcellulose, with continued stirring.
5) The dyes/pigments predissolved in water are then added.
6) Finally, the alcohol and the phenoxyethanol are added with stirring.
Evaluation of the Formulas
The tacky aspect, the aspect of the composition, the aspect of the deposit, and the gloss properties of the deposit were evaluated for each of the formulas thus obtained, according to the protocol described in Examples 7 and 8.
Result
A fluid, homogeneous mixture is obtained for the compositions of Examples 11, 12 and 13.
The compositions of Examples 11, 12 and 13 are applied to the lips. They are comfortable on application (easy to apply and glide on application) and the deposits obtained are not tacky.
For each of the compositions of Examples 11, 12 and 13, the makeup deposits obtained are homogeneous, thin and light, have very good gloss and gloss remanence (especially over 1 hour) on the lips, and also a satisfactory wear property of the color.
