| abstract |
The present invention is a self-foaming, foam-type, post-foaming or foamable cosmetic or dermatological preparation comprising at least one siloxane elastomer selected from the group of siloxane elastomers obtainable by reacting vinyl-terminated polymethylsiloxane with methylhydro-dimethylsiloxane or by reacting hydroxy-terminated dimethylpolysiloxane with trimethylsiloxy-terminated methylpolysiloxane. The present invention also includes a method of preparing foam comprising combining the cosmetic or dermatological preparation with at least one gas or propellant by releasing the preparation and the gas or propellant from a pressurized gas container, and a method for increasing the stability of a foam comprising adding at least one siloxane elastomer. |
