The present invention belongs to the cosmetic field, and relates to a cosmetic composition, a transparent packaging containing the cosmetic composition, hydrophobic flakes and use of alcohol (s) in production of the hydrophobic flakes. Specifically, the present invention discloses a cosmetic composition comprising an aqueous phase containing one or more alcohols and hydrophobic flakes, wherein said hydrophobic flakes are suspended in the aqueous phase and wherein the hydrophobic flakes comprise one or more fatty alcohols with a melting point between 35°C to 60°C at a pressure of 1013 hPa. The hydrophobic flakes of the present invention are formed with a reduced variance in size.Linvention porte sur un composé cosmétique, lemballage transparent contenant le composé, les flocons hydrophobes et lutilisation dalcool (s) dans la production des flocons hydrophobes. Le composé comprenant une phase aqueuse, contenant un ou plusieurs alcools, et des flocons hydrophobes. Les flocons hydrophobes sont en suspension dans la phase aqueuse et les flocons hydrophobes comprennent un, ou plusieurs, alcools gras ayant un point de fusion compris entre 35 °C et 60 °C à une pression de 1013 kPa. Les flocons hydrophobes ont peu de variation de taille.
