Foaming oil-in-water emulsion based on nonionic surfactants, a fatty phase and a crosslinked cationic or anionic polymer, and its use in topical applications
First Claim
1. A foaming oil-in-water emulsion in the form of a cream, which comprises, in a cosmetically acceptable aqueous medium, at least:
- a) from 5 to 20% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition, of a nonionic surfactant system consisting of at least one foaming nonionic surfactant and at least one emulsifying nonionic surfactant, wherein said at least one foaming nonionic surfactant is selected from;
i) the compounds of formula (I);
in which;
R represents an aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or arylaliphatic radical or a mixture of radicals having from 7 to 21 carbon atoms, wherein the aliphatic chains are saturated or unsaturated, linear or branched, and may contain sulphur or oxygen atoms; and
n represents any integer or fraction greater than 1 and less than or equal to 10 and denotes the degree of polymerization;
ii) the compounds of formula (II)

Abstract
A forming oil-in-water emulsion in the form of a cream comprising, in an aqueous medium, at least:
a) from 5 to 20% of an exclusively nonionic surfactant system comprising at least one foaming nonionic surfactant;
b) from 10 to 50% of an oily phase containing at least one water-insoluble oil whose solubility parameters dD, dP and dH according to Hansen'"'"'s solubility space satisfy the conditions:
and
with
c) and, as a gelling agent, at least one crosslinked homopolymer or copolymer formed from at least one cationic or anionic monomer containing ethylenic unsaturation and from a crosslinking agent containing polyethylenic unsaturation. This composition is useful in cosmetics, dermatology and hygiene as a base for cleansing products for the skin, the hair, the mucous membranes and the scalp.
