Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 187 words
A stick-type cosmetic comprising gypsum and a pearlescent pigment composition; said pigment composition comprising at least one coated pigment and including water to the amount of at least 20 wt.% of said pigment composition, said pigment being 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-repellant coating of a metallic soap of the formula- (RCOO).sub.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 valance 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 in an amount to cause said water-repellent soap to form and coat the surfaces of said pigment and wherein the wt. ratio of said pigment to said metallic soap being from 1:0.01 to 1:0.1.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 187 words
A stick-type cosmetic comprising gypsum and a pearlescent pigment composition; said pigment composition comprising at least one coated pigment and including water to the amount of at least 20 wt.% of said pigment composition, said pigment being 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-repellant coating of a metallic soap of the formula- (RCOO).sub.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 valance 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 in an amount to cause said water-repellent soap to form and coat the surfaces of said pigment and wherein the wt. ratio of said pigment to said metallic soap being from 1:0.01 to 1:0.1.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 26 words
The stick-type cosmetic according to claim 1, additionally comprising at least one of an extender pigment, an oil component, a moisture-retaining agent, and a coloring pigment.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 14 words
The stick-type cosmetic according to claim 2, wherein said stick is a cosmetic pencil.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 24 words
The stick-type cosmetic according to claim 2 wherein said pigment composition component contains about 50±10% of water by weight before admixture with said gypsum.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 29 words
The stick-type cosmetic according to claim 2, wherein said coated pigment composition is present in the range from about 6 to about 64 wt.% of the total stick weight.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 32 words
The stick-type composition according to claim 2, wherein said stick contains gypsum in hydrous or hemihydrous form in the range from about 18 to about 52% by weight of the total weight.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 36 words
The stick type cosmetic according to claim 2, wherein the combined content of said extender pigment and/or coloring pigment, in powdered form, is in the range of about 0 to 32% by weight of said stick.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 25 words
The cosmetic stick compositions according to claim 2, wherein said oil content is in the range 0 to about 50% by weight of said stick.
