Abstract

The subject-matter of the present invention is the use, in and for the preparation of cosmetic or dermatological compositions, of a grafted copolymer, the skeleton (S) of which is composed of a hydrophilic copolymer, with a glass transition temperature Tg greater than 25° C., obtained by radical polymerization or by polycondensation, comprising, on the chain of the skeleton (S), at least one graft composed of a hydrophobic macromonomer (M) with a glass transition temperature T'g of less than 25° C., as well as the cosmetic or dermatological compositions employed.
