Abstract

The invention relates to a foaming pulverulent composition for cleaning and/or caring for the skin. The composition includes a cosmetically acceptable binder and a pulverulent filler which is insoluble in the binder and which is present in an amount sufficient to structure the composition and to confer on it the appearance of a deformable solid in which the binder is trapped. The pulverulent filler includes solid particles of thermoplastic polymer and at least one surfactant in pulverulent form. The composition foams when it is hydrated.
