Abstract: A cosmetic composition is provided which comprises at least one graft and cross-linked copolymer obtained by copolymerization of: A. at least one non-ionic monomer, B. at least one ionic monomer or N-vinyl pyrrolidone, C. polyethylene glycol, and D. a cross-linking agent selected from ethylene glycol dimethacrylate, diallyl o-, m- and p-phthalates, a divinylbenzene, tetrallyloxyethane and a polyallylsucrose possessing 2 to 5 allyl groups per mol of sucrose, and a cosmetically acceptable vehicle. Such compositions are particularly useful as hair lacquers and wavesetting lotions; they adhere well to the hair while giving a good glossy appearance. Certain of the copolymers are novel.
