The composition of the invention is capable of restoring the cutaneous barrier, reorganizing the lipidic layer of the stratum corneum in orthorhombic, conceding hydration, renewal and cellular energization in the long run. In a particular embodiment, said composition can be used simultaneously as an emulsifying system for preparing cosmetic products, for example, in the preparation of creams, lotions, etc. 1. OIL-IN-GLYCOL COSMETIC COMPOSITION FOR RESTORING CUTANEOUS BARRIER , wherein it comprises (a) at least one sucrose non-ionic surfactant or derivatives thereof , (b) at least one fatty alcohol , (c) at least one glycol and (d) at least one ingredient selected from aminoacid and/or peptide.2. COMPOSITION claim 1 , according to the claim 1 , wherein the non-ionic surfactant (a) is an ester of sucrose.3. COMPOSITION claim 2 , according to claim 2 , wherein the non-ionic surfactant (a) is selected from sucrose stearate claim 2 , sucrose tristearate claim 2 , sucrose hexaerucate claim 2 , sucrose tribehenate or mixtures thereof.4. COMPOSITION claim 1 , according to claim 1 , wherein the non-ionic surfactant (a) is a mixture of sucrose stearate and trisucrose stearate in the ratio of 2:1.5. COMPOSITION claim 1 , according to claim 1 , wherein it contains from 10 to 20% by weight of non-ionic surfactant (a) in relation to the total weight of the composition.6. COMPOSITION claim 1 , according to claim 1 , wherein the fatty alcohol (b) is selected from among those that have a carbon chain of C10 to C22.7. COMPOSITION claim 6 , according to claim 6 , wherein the fatty alcohol (b) is selected from among behenyl alcohol claim 6 , isocetyl ...
