Abstract

Cosmetic compositions comprising bi-modal water continuous emulsions are disclosed. In particular, the cosmetic compositions comprise a bi-modal water continuous emulsion (E) comprising at least 70 weight percent of: a first dispersed phase containing a hydrophobic oil, wherein the hydrophobic oil is provided as a non-emulsified hydrophobic oil, and a second dispersed phase containing a silicone, wherein the silicone is provided from a water continuous silicone emulsion containing at least one surfactant. The cosmetic compositions further comprise at least one cosmetic ingredient (C). Optionally, the cosmetic ingredient (C) is in a cosmetically acceptable medium. Preparation methods and uses of the cosmetic compositions are also disclosed.
