Claims
- 1. Pickering water-in-oil or oil-in-water emulsions, comprising(1) an oil phase, (2) a water phase, (3) at least one type of microfine particles which a) have an average particle size of less than 200 nm, which b) display both hydrophilic and lipophilic properties, and are dispersible bath in water and in oil and which c) are selected from the group consisting of boron nitride, microline polymer particles, modified polysaccharides, and mixtures thereof and which have optionally been coated on the surface, (4) at least one cyclodextrin and (5) at most 0.5% by weight of one or more emulsifiers.
- 2. Pickering emulsions according to claim 1, wherein said emulsions are emulsifier-free.
- 3. Pickering emulsions according to claim 1, wherein the content of the particles used is between 0.1% by weight and 30% by weight, based on the total weight of the preparations.
- 4. Pickering emulsions according to claim 1, wherein the particle diameter of the particles used is between 5 nm and 100 nm.
- 5. Pickering emulsions according to claim 1, wherein the particles used are surface-treated to repel water, where the amphiphilic character of the particles is formed or retained.
- 6. Pickering emulsions according to claim 1, wherein the total amount of one or more cyclodextrins in the finished cosmetic or dermatological preparations is less than 10.0% by weight, based on the total weight of the preparations.
- 7. Pickering emulsions according to claim 1, wherein said cyclodextrin is β-cyclodextrin, γ-cyclodextrin or a combination thereof.
- 8. Pickering emulsions according to claim 1, further comprising auxiliaries which contribute to reducing or preventing a dull or dry feel on the skin following their application.
- 9. Pickering emulsions according to claim 6, wherein the total amount of said cyclodextrins is between 0.1 and 5.0% by weight, based on the total weight of the preparation.
