Problems solved by technology

A problem with most of these compositions is that sunscreens that absorb ultraviolet A (UVA) radiation between 400 nm and 315 nm are unstable and cannot be fully absorbed in the composition
This results in compositions that are ineffective at protecting the skin from UVA radiation, which can cause damage to the collagen fibers in the skin

Embodiment 1

[0099] (test carrier)

[0100] Tables 1 and 2 describe typical skin test formulations in which sunscreens, solubilizers and stabilizers may be incorporated to determine the efficacy and stability of the compositions in protecting the skin from UVA and UVB.

Embodiment 2

[0112] (sample preparation)

[0113] The compositions in Tables 3 and 4 are sample formulations that were found to be particularly effective in providing broad-band protection from UVA and UVB radiation. For example, the formulation of Table 3 was determined to have an SPF value of about 35 and a PVA value of at least 8, thereby classifying it as a PA+++ sunscreen product. In fact, this formulation falls within the protective range of a 3:1 ratio of UVB to UVA. For the formulation of Table 4, it was found to have an SPF value of about 50 and a PVA value of at least 8, thereby classifying it as a PA+++ sunscreen product. Additional testing confirmed that the formulations of Tables 3-4 are emulsions with long-term stability (i.e., the solubility of the sunscreen in the composition can be stored for 1 year at room temperature / about 20 to 25°C), as measured by standard thermal stability tests determined.

Embodiment 3

[0123] (additional analysis)

[0124] Compositions of the invention, such as those disclosed in Tables 1 to 4, can be assayed to determine the ability of such compositions to treat other skin-related conditions.

[0125] Erythema Assay: An assay that measures reduction in skin redness can be assessed using the Minolta Chromometer. Skin erythema can be induced by applying a 0.2% sodium lauryl sulfate solution to the subject's forearm. The area is protected for 24 hours with an occlusive patch. After 24 hours, the patch is removed and a Minolta Chroma Meter can be used * Values ​​were evaluated for irritation-induced redness. a * The value measures the change in skin tone in the red area. Immediately after the measurement, the area is treated with the composition of the invention. Repeat measurements are taken periodically to determine the ability of the formulation to reduce redness and irritation.

Abstract

Disclosed are stable sunscreen compositions and corresponding methods for their use that are effective in protecting skin from UVA and UVB radiation. The composition uses a combination of ingredients to effectively and stably solubilize sunscreen agents to create a stable formulation.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of US Provisional Application No. 61 / 494,682, filed June 8, 2011, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Background technique [0003] A.Technical field [0004] The present invention generally relates to sunscreen compositions. [0005] B. Related technical description [0006] Sunscreen compositions are known in the art. A problem with most of these compositions is that sunscreens that absorb ultraviolet A (UVA) radiation between 400 nm and 315 nm are unstable and cannot be fully absorbed within the composition. This results in compositions that are ineffective at protecting the skin from UVA radiation, which can cause damage to the collagen fibers in the skin. Damage to collagen fibers can in turn lead to the appearance of fine lines or wrinkles and loss of skin elasticity. Contents of the invention [0007] The present invention provides a solution to th...
