Abstract
Cosmetic or dermatological composition in the form of an aqueous and stable dispersion of cubic gel particles based on 3,7,11,15-tetramethyl-1,2,3-hexadecanetriol or phytanetriol and use thereof for hydrating the skin. This composition essentially comprises: PA1 (a) from 0.1 to 15% by weight of 3,7,11,15-tetramethyl-1,2,3-hexadecanetriol relative to the total weight of the composition, and PA1 (b) from 0.1 to 3% by weight of a dispersing and stabilizing agent relative to the total weight of the composition, the said agent being chosen from surface-active agents that are water-soluble at room temperature, containing a saturated or unsaturated fatty chain having from 8 to 22 carbon atoms. This composition is of excellent stability and has a very satisfactory sensory feel and a hydrating effect, and moreover allows hydrophilic and/or lipophilic active principles to be included therein without any problem of compatibility.
