| 1. A method for removing transfer resistant make-up compositions comprising the step of applying a safe and effective amount
of a make-up removing composition comprising:
(i) from about 0.1 to about 30% of a non-spherical crosslinked siloxane elastomer said elastomer having a particle size of
from above 10 to about 200 microns;
(ii) from about 10 to about 80% of a solvent suitable for topical application to the skin having a solubility parameter of
less than or equal to about 9 (cal./cm 3)1/2;
(iii) optionally, from about 0% to about 90% water and;
(iv) an emulsifier wherein the composition has a viscosity greater than about 20,000 cps.
