Cosmetic composition comprising amphiphilic copolymer

The present invention relates to a cosmetic composition comprising: (i) at least one amphiphilic copolymer; and (ii) one or more cosmetically acceptable diluents, excipients or carriers; wherein the amphiphilic copolymer is selected from the group consisting of a graft copolymer comprising a hydrophobic straight or branched chain carbon-carbon backbone having at least one hydrophilic side chain attached thereto; a graft copolymer comprising a hydrophilic straight or branched chain backbone having at least one hydrophobic side chain attached thereto; a block copolymer comprising at least one hydrophilic block and at least one hydrophobic block in a straight or branched chain backbone; and a cross-linked/network copolymer; and to a process for the preparation of such a composition.
