• polyesters used within the scope of the present invention have a structure that is different from that of the known polyesters. Moreover, when they are formulated in combination with particular ingredients, they make it possible to achieve cosmetic properties equal to or even better than the performance already obtained with the known polyesters.
• the aim of the present invention is to propose cast cosmetic compositions, for which the level of gloss reaches, for the first time, that of a cosmetic composition in the form of a paste or of a liquid such as a gloss.
• polyesters lead to solid cosmetic compositions, cast or in the form of a stick, which display, once they are applied, a gloss that is as high as the gloss obtained in the prior art with liquid compositions.

These values reflect the texture of a solid composition, notably that is liable to disintegrate on keratinous materials, whether it is cast in a pot or cast in the form of a stick.
• the hardness of a stick can be measured by the “cheese wire” method, which comprises cutting a lipstick of 12.7 mm and measuring the hardness at 20° C., using a DFGHS 2 dynamometer from the company Indelco-Chatillon with displacement at a rate of 100 mm/minute.

• Two Petri dishes are prepared in this way, and are left to stand for a minimum of 24 h at 20° C. before characterization.
• At least three measurements are performed on each sample: one at the centre and the others located at equal distance from its centre and its edge.
