Abstract
A cosmetic composition having a lipophilic continuous phase, in particular make-up compositions, containing a novel yellow pigment of intense, saturated color, which does not generate free radicals. This novel pigment is a bismuth vanadate of formula BiVO.sub.4. By means of this pigment, it is possible to reduce the production of free radicals in the composition, when it is applied to the skin, the lips and the superficial body growths, and thus protect them. It also makes it possible to conserve the gloss of the films deposited.
