Abstract
Abstract Pigments coated with metallic soap and containing water easily disperse in the water and yet demonstrate water-repellency. The present pigments will thus obtain cosmetic which will give the user a refreshment and longer lasting and water-repellent make-up.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
166 words
A coated pigment composition readily dispersed in water comprising at least one coated pigment and at least 20% by weight of said composition of of water; said pigment selected from the group consisting of titanium dioxide-coated mica, colored titanium dioxide-coated mica and colored bismuth oxychloride, coated on the surfaces thereof with a water-repellent coating of a metallic soap of the formula (RCCO) n M, wherein R is selected from straight chain, branched chain, saturated and unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbon groups having more than 6 carbon atoms, M is selected from aluminum and zinc, and n is the valency of the metal, said surface coating being prepared by reacting in an aqueous medium an alkaline salt of an aliphatic acid radical (RCOO) - with a mineral acid metal salt where said metal is M as defined above in a theoretical equivalent ratio of 1:4 to 1:10 and said pigments, the ratio by weight of said pigment to said so-formed soap being in the ratio of 1:0.01 to 1:0.1.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
166 words
A coated pigment composition readily dispersed in water comprising at least one coated pigment and at least 20% by weight of said composition of of water; said pigment selected from the group consisting of titanium dioxide-coated mica, colored titanium dioxide-coated mica and colored bismuth oxychloride, coated on the surfaces thereof with a water-repellent coating of a metallic soap of the formula (RCCO) n M, wherein R is selected from straight chain, branched chain, saturated and unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbon groups having more than 6 carbon atoms, M is selected from aluminum and zinc, and n is the valency of the metal, said surface coating being prepared by reacting in an aqueous medium an alkaline salt of an aliphatic acid radical (RCOO) - with a mineral acid metal salt where said metal is M as defined above in a theoretical equivalent ratio of 1:4 to 1:10 and said pigments, the ratio by weight of said pigment to said so-formed soap being in the ratio of 1:0.01 to 1:0.1.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
