Abstract

A cosmetic composition is provided which includes a crosslinked silicone elastomer, a zinc oxide or zirconium oxide of average particle size less than 300 nm and a light reflecting inorganic material of platelet shaped particles having an average particle size of about 10,000 to about 30,000 nm, in a cosmetically acceptable carrier system. The composition achieves soft focus and radiance properties which improve the appearance of skin. Good coverage over imperfections such as pores and uneven skin tone is achieved while retaining a natural skin appearance.
