Abstract
Composition for the treatment of acne containing a dispersion of vesicles of ionic or non-ionic amphiphilic lipids, the vesicles containing in the lipid phase at least one salicylic acid derivative of formula (I): ##STR1## in which R represents a linear or branched C.sub.11 -C.sub.17 alkyl radical; R'.sub.1, R'.sub.2, R'.sub.3, which are identical or different, represent a C.sub.1 -C.sub.18 alkyl or hydroxyalkyl radical, it being possible for one of the radicals R'.sub.1, R'.sub.2 or R'.sub.3 to be a benzyl radical. The derivative of formula (I) serves both as charged lipid and as anti-acne active ingredient. The derivatives of formula (I) in which, when R represents a C.sub.13 -C.sub.17 alkyl radical, R'.sub.1, R'.sub.2, R'.sub.3, when they are identical, do not represent a hydroxyethyl radical.
