Description

Title of the invention: HAIR CARE COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING BIS-ETHYLHEXYLOXYPHENOL ME-THOXYPHENYL TRIAZINE FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present disclosure relates to hair care compositions comprising 2,4-bis-{[4-(2-ethylhexyloxy)-2-hydroxy]-phenyl}-6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3,5-triazine (INCI name: bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol me-thoxyphenyl triazine), as well as methods of making and using such compositions. DISCUSSION OF THE CONTEXT

[0002] Radiation with wavelengths between 290 nm and 400 nm allows tanning of the human epidermis, while radiation with wavelengths between 290 and 320 nm, called UVB rays, hinders the development of a natural tan. Exposure is also likely to cause a detrimental change in the biomechanical properties of the epidermis, which results in the appearance of wrinkles leading to premature aging of the skin (i.e., photoaging).

[0003] UVA rays with wavelengths between 320 and 400 nm penetrate deeper into the skin than UVB rays. UVA rays cause immediate and persistent browning of the skin. Daily exposure to UVA rays, even for a short time, under normal conditions, can damage collagen fibers and elastin, resulting in a change in the skin's microrelief, the appearance of wrinkles and uneven pigmentation (spots, uneven skin tone).

[0004] Numerous studies show the need for effective protection against UVA and UVB to prevent sunburn, photoaging, and the like.

[0005] Studies also show the need to protect hair from UV rays, which can damage it or cause physical changes that can damage it.

[0006] In order to obtain a high protection product, it is generally necessary to combine a large number of sunscreens and / or a large quantity of UV filters to achieve high levels of filtration efficiency.

[0007] However, high levels of UV filters do not lend themselves to easy development of compositions with a stabilized and pleasant texture.

[0008] There remains a need in the art for improved hair care compositions which have organic UV filters and have pleasant application properties (e.g., non-greasy feel) and UV protection properties.

[0009] Accordingly, one aspect of the present disclosure relates to hair care compositions which possess organic UV filters and have pleasant application properties (e.g., non-greasy feel) and UV protective properties. Summary of the invention

[0010] The present disclosure relates to hair care compositions (“hair compositions”) comprising bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine (BEMT or bemotrizinol). Preferably, bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine (BEMT) is added to the compositions in an amount effective to protect the hair from UV rays.

[0011] The present disclosure relates to hair coloring compositions comprising at least one coloring agent and bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine (BEMT). Preferably, bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine (BEMT) is present in the compositions in an amount effective to improve the photostability of the coloring agent.

[0012] The present disclosure also relates to methods of protecting hair and / or skin, particularly the scalp, from UV rays comprising applying hair care compositions of the present disclosure to the hair in an amount sufficient to protect the hair and / or skin from UV rays.

[0013] The present disclosure also relates to methods of making hair care compositions comprising adding bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine to the compositions during formation of the compositions. Preferably, bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine (BEMT) is added to the compositions in an amount effective to protect the hair and / or skin, particularly the scalp, from UV rays.

[0014] The present disclosure also relates to methods of treating, caring for, protecting, improving the appearance of and / or making up hair comprising applying hair care compositions of the present disclosure to the hair in an amount sufficient to treat, care for, improve the appearance of and / or make up the hair.

[0015] The present disclosure also relates to methods of improving the photostability of the coloring agent in hair coloring compositions comprising at least one coloring agent, wherein the methods comprise adding bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine to the compositions during the forming the compositions in an amount sufficient to improve the photostability of the at least one coloring agent.

[0016] The present disclosure also relates to methods of improving the photostability of the coloring agent in hair coloring compositions comprising at least one coloring agent after application to hair of the hair coloring compositions, wherein the methods comprise adding bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine to the compositions during formation of the compositions in an amount sufficient to improve the photostability of the at least one coloring agent after application of the compositions to hair.

[0017] It should be understood that both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory only and do not limit the disclosure. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0018] In the following description and the claims appended thereto, it is to be understood that the terms used have their ordinary and customary meanings in the art, unless otherwise specified.

[0019] “Approximately” as used herein means within 10% of the number indicated (e.g., “about 10%” means 9% to 11% and “about 2%” means 1.8% to 2.2%.

[0020] “A” or “an” as used herein means “at least one”.

[0021] “At least one” means one or more and thus includes components in individual as well as mixtures / combinations.

[0022] As used herein, all proposed ranges are intended to include every specific point and range within the given ranges, as well as every combination of subranges therein. Thus, a range of 1 to 5 specifically includes the integers in the range 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, as well as subranges such as 2 to 5, 3 to 5, 2 to 3, 2 to 4, 1 to 4, etc., as well as all fractional numbers in the range such as 1.2, 2.3, 3.4, etc., and subranges including such fractional numbers such as 1.5 to 3.8, 2 to 4.3, 4.2 to 4.9, etc.

[0023] “Film-forming”, “film-forming polymer” or “film-forming agent” as used herein means a polymer or resin that is capable of leaving a film on the substrate to which it is applied, for example, after a solvent accompanying the film former has evaporated, been absorbed into, and / or dissipated on the substrate.

[0024] “Substituted” as used herein means comprising at least one substituent. Non-limiting examples of substituents include atoms, such as hydrogen atoms or chlorine atoms, as well as functional groups, such as hydroxyl groups, ether groups, alkoxy groups, acyloxyalkyl groups, oxyalkylene groups, polyoxyalkylene groups, carboxylic acid groups, amine groups, acylamino groups, amide groups, halogen-containing groups, ester groups, thiol groups, sulfonate groups, thiosulfate groups, siloxane groups and polysiloxane groups. The substituent(s) may be further substituted.

[0025] “Volatile,” as used herein, means having a flash point less than about 115°C.

[0026] “Non-volatile,” as used herein, means having a flash point greater than about 115°C.

[0027] “Polymer” as used herein means a compound that is made up of at least two monomers.

[0028] “Exempt” or “substantially free” or “devoid of” as used herein means that although it is preferred that no amount of the specific component be present in the composition, it is possible for there to be very small amounts thereof in the compositions of the disclosure, provided that such amounts do not materially affect at least one, preferably most, of the advantageous properties of the compositions of the disclosure. Thus, for example, "oil-free" means that an effective amount (i.e., greater than trace amounts) of oil(s) is omitted from the composition (i.e., about 0% by weight), "substantially oil-free" means that oil(s) is(are) present in amounts not greater than 0.1% by weight, and "oil-free" means that oil(s) is(are) present in amounts not greater than 0.25% by weight, based on the total weight of the composition.The same nomenclature applies to all other ingredients identified throughout the application and in this paragraph such as, for example, specific UV filters and / or surfactants (the compositions in the disclosure that are “oxybenzone and / or octinoxate-free,” “substantially oxybenzone and / or octinoxate-free,” and “oxybenzone and / or octinoxate-free,” as well as “surfactant-free,” “substantially surfactant-free,” and “surfactant-free” have meanings consistent with the discussion in this paragraph), even if not specifically discussed for each identified ingredient. Discussed examples of the use of such language such as those in this paragraph are intended to be provided by way of example, not limitation.

[0029] “UV filters” as used herein means approved sunscreen active agents by a government regulatory agency such as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the United States or the European Commission in Europe and includes avobenzone, octocrylene, benzophenones, benzotriazoles and merocyanines, as well as mineral UV filters such as zinc oxide (ZnO) and titanium dioxide (TiO2).

[0030] “Anhydrous” as used herein means that the compositions of the disclosure contain less than 3% water, which means that the compositions may also contain less than 2% water, and less than 1% water, as well as be “water-free”, “substantially water-free” and “water-free” as defined above.

[0031] “Hair” includes head hair, but also eyelashes and eyebrows.

[0032] "Hair care compositions" or "hair compositions" include any care composition applied to the hair such as hair coloring compositions, hair styling compositions, conditioning compositions and hair cleansing compositions.

[0033] The expression "physiologically acceptable" means compatible with the hair and having a pleasant color, odor and feel, and which does not cause any unacceptable discomfort (tingling or tightness) likely to discourage a consumer from using the composition.

[0034] “UV protection efficiency” or “filtration efficiency” in the context of present disclosure, is evaluated from one or more of SPF, FPUVA, critical wavelength and UVA-I / UV ratio.

[0035] "SPF" (Sun Protection Factor) generally measures the level of protection of the skin against erythema provided by a composition. The SPF value corresponds to the ratio between the minimum erythema dose (MED) measured on skin covered with the composition and the MED measured on bare skin. The term "SPF" is known in the art of sunscreens and is defined, for example, in A new substrate to measure sunscreen protection factors throughout the ultraviolet spectrum, J. Soc. Cosmet. Chem., 40, 127-133 (May / June 1989). Although SPF generally relates to the protection provided to the skin, it can be used as an indicator to evaluate the protection provided to the hair, particularly through the in vitro techniques discussed below.

[0036] The SPF (Sun Protection Factor) assessment can be carried out, for example, in vitro with a Labsphere spectrophotometer (North Sutton, NH, USA). In such an assessment, the plate is the material on which the composition under test is applied. For such an assessment, polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) plates can be used. An example of an acceptable protocol is currently undergoing ISO accreditation as ISO Committee Draft 23675.

[0037] “UVA Protection Factor” (UPF) refers to an index characterizing the UVA protection provided by a composition. For example, the UPF may be measured in vivo in accordance with the “PPD” (Persistent Pigment Darkening) method of the ISO-24442:2022 protocol, measuring skin color observed 2 to 4 hours after UVA exposure. It may also be determined in accordance with FDA protocols, as described again in 21 CFR Part 352 Subpart D § 352.72 as discussed above in connection with the FPS.

[0038] The evaluation of UVA protection can also be measured in vitro with the Labsphere® spectrophotometer under conditions such as those discussed above in connection with SPF. The ISO 24443:2021 protocol describes such an in vitro method. The FDA's broad spectrum test procedures, in particular the test procedures relating to the "critical wavelength", are also found in 21 CFR Part 352 Subpart D § 352.72. In addition, the broad spectrum test procedures include the determination of the UVA1 / UV ratio as described in "Sunscreen Drug Products for Over-the-Counter-Human-Use" published in the Federal Register https: / / www.federalregister.gov / documents / 2019 / 02 / 26 / 2019-03019 / sunscreen-drug-pr oducts-for-over-the-counter-human-use.» In the assay described in the monograph, known as the Boots adaptation of the Diffey / Robson test method, a ratio is generated between the protection provided by the sunscreen product against UVA1 (340-400 nm) and the protection against total UV radiation (UVB and UVA at 290-400 nm) calculated from the absorbance curve. This UVA1 / UV ratio should represent the product's score in the in vitro test.

[0039] According to the present disclosure, the compositions of the present disclosure preferably have one or more of the following properties:

[0040] The compositions have a critical wavelength as determined by FDA critical wavelength procedures of at least 370 nm;

[0041] The compositions have an SPF value of at least 15, preferably at least 30, preferably at least 50 and preferably at least 70;

[0042] The compositions have an FPUVA / SPF ratio of at least 1 / 3, and preferably at least 2 / 5; and / or

[0043] The compositions have a UVA1 / UV ratio of 0.7 or more, preferably 0.75 or more, and preferably 0.8 or more.

[0044] "Makeup result" as used herein refers to the visual impact of a composition when applied to a keratinous material such as skin. The makeup result may relate to the apparent color of the product after application to a keratinous material or an optical effect such as shine, the blurring of fine lines and imperfections, or a concealing effect on pores or skin defects after application of the product to the keratinous material.

[0045] “Long-lasting” as used herein refers to compositions where the color or other apparent properties remain the same or substantially the same as at the time of application, as viewed by the naked eye, after an extended period of time, or after a particular stress event such as immersion in water or rubbing. “Long-lasting” can be evaluated by evaluating the long-lasting properties held by any method of evaluating such properties known in the art. For example, long-lasting may be evaluated by a test involving the application of a composition to a keratinous material such as skin and evaluating the color of the composition after an extended period. For example, the color of a composition may be evaluated immediately after application to a keratinous material such as skin and these characteristics may then be re-evaluated and compared after a period of time. Furthermore, these characteristics may be evaluated relative to other compositions, such as commercially available compositions.“Long wear” can also be assessed using in vitro methods on non-keratinous substrates such as polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), in which properties such as color, transparency, or in vitro SPF can be assessed before and after a period or stressor such as immersion in water, incubation at elevated temperatures, or application of an abrasive technique.

[0046] “Natural” as in the expression “natural compound” means any compound derived directly from a natural substance such as a plant without undergoing chemical modification.

[0047] “Naturally occurring compound” means any compound derived from a naturally occurring compound which has undergone one or more chemical modifications, for example by organic synthesis reaction, without the properties of the natural compound having been modified.

[0048] “Synthetic compound” means any compound that is neither a natural compound nor a compound of natural origin.

[0049] “Room temperature” means approximately 20 to 25°C.

[0050] “Atmospheric pressure” means approximately 760 mmHg, i.e. approximately 105 pascals.

[0051] “UV filter” and “sunscreen agent” are used interchangeably in this request.

[0052] “UV efficacy” and “UV protection” are used interchangeably interchangeable in this application.

[0053] The compositions and methods of the present disclosure may comprise, consist of, or consist essentially of the essential elements and limitations of the disclosure described herein, as well as any additional or optional ingredients, components, or limitations described herein or otherwise useful. For example, the UV (ultraviolet) absorbing system of the compositions of the disclosure may "consist essentially of" bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine alone, or bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine in combination with zinc, titanium, and / or cerium oxides, and / or one or more additional organic UV filters.

[0054] For the purposes of this disclosure, the associated “fundamental and novel property” to the compositions, components and processes which “consist essentially of” identified ingredients or actions is “protection of the hair and / or skin such as the scalp, against UV rays”.

[0055] The compositions of the present disclosure may be in any form suitable for use as a personal care composition, such as that of a lotion (e.g., a lower viscosity emulsion), a gel, a mousse, a cream (e.g., a higher viscosity emulsion), a paste, an aqueous composition (e.g., compositions containing 3% oil or less, 2% oil or less, 1% oil or less, or compositions that are "free," "substantially free," or "devoid" of oil), etc. These compositions may be used for any purpose in hair products such as, for example, a bleaching composition, a shampoo, a conditioner, etc.These compositions can be used for any purpose in hair coloring products such as, for example, products that provide temporary color to the hair such as mascara, temporary hair dye or hair gloss, products that provide momentary color to the hair such as semi-permanent or quasi-permanent hair dye, or permanent hair dye.

[0056] Reference is made herein to trade names of materials including, but not limited to, materials such as polymers and optional components. The materials are not intended to be limited by the materials described and referenced by a certain trade name herein. Equivalent materials (e.g., those obtained from a different source under a different catalog name or (reference) number) to those referenced by a trade name may be substituted and used in the methods described and claimed herein.

[0057] All percentages and ratios are calculated by weight unless otherwise indicated. All percentages are, unless otherwise indicated, calculated based on the total weight of a composition. All levels of component or composition refer to the active level of that component or composition, and are exclusive of impurities, e.g., residual solvents or by-products, which may be present in commercially available sources.

The at least one thixotropic agent may be selected, for example, from hydrophilic or organophilic clays, hydrophilic or hydrophobic fumed silicas, elastomeric organopolysiloxanes, and mixtures thereof.

[0156] Clays are silicates containing a cation that may be selected from calcium, magnesium, aluminum, sodium, potassium, and lithium cations, and mixtures thereof. As used herein, the term "hydrophilic clay" refers to a clay capable of swelling in water; this clay swells in water and upon hydration forms a colloidal dispersion.

[0157] Examples of such products include, but are not limited to, smectite family clays such as montmorillonites, hectorites, bentonites, beidellites and saponites, vermiculite family clays, stevensite and chlorites.

[0158] These clays can be of natural or synthetic origin.

[0164] Hydrophilic fumed silicas can be obtained by high-temperature hydrolysis of a volatile silicon compound in an oxyhydrogen flame, producing a finely divided silica. Hydrophilic silicas have a large number of silanol groups on their surface. Such hydrophilic silicas are sold, for example, under the names Aerosil 130®, Aerosil 200®, Aerosil 255®, Aerosil 300® and Aerosil 380® by Degussa, and Cab-O-Sil HS-5®, Cab-O-Sil EH-5®, Cab-O-Sil LM-130®, Cab-O-Sil MS-55® and Cab-O-Sil M-5® by Cabot.

[0165] Hydrophobic fumed silicas can be obtained by modifying the surface of the silica via a chemical reaction which generates a reduction in the number of silanol groups, these groups being optionally substituted, for example, by hydrophobic groups.

[0166] The hydrophobic groups may be chosen, for example, from:

[0167] trimethylsiloxyl groups, which can be obtained by treatment of fumed silica in the presence of hexamethyldisilazane. The silicas thus treated are known as “Silica silylate” according to the CTFA (6th edition, 1995). They are sold, for example, under the references Aerosil R812® by the company Degussa, and Cab-O-Sil TS-530® by the company Cabot,

[0168] dimethylsilyloxyl or polydimethylsiloxane groups, which can be obtained in particular by treatment of the fumed silica in the presence of polydimethylsiloxane or dimethyldichlorosilane. The silicas thus treated are known under the name “Silica dimethyl silylate” according to the CTFA (6th edition, 1995). They are sold, for example, under the references Aerosil R972® and Aerosil R974® by the company Degussa, and CAB-O-SIL TS-610® and CAB-O-SIL TS-720® by the company Cabot.

[0169] The at least one thixotropic agent, if any, may preferably be present in the composition in an amount ranging from 0.05 percent by weight, for example, preferably from about 0.05 percent to about 15 percent by weight, preferably from about 0.5 percent to about 10 percent by weight, and preferably from about 0.75 percent to about 5 percent by weight, all weights being based on the total weight of the composition, including all intermediate ranges and sub-ranges such as, for example, 1% to 3%, 0.5% to 7%, 5% to 15%, etc.

[0170] According to certain embodiments, the compositions of the present disclosure may also optionally further include at least one filler.

[0171] Suitable examples of fillers include mineral or organic particles of any shape, sheet-like, spherical, or oblong, regardless of crystallographic shape (e.g., sheet, cubic, hexagonal, orthorhombic, etc.).Examples of suitable polymers include talc, mica, kaolin, polyamide (Nylon®) (Orgasol® from Atochem), poly-[3-alanine and polyethylene powders, tetrafluoroethylene polymer powders (Teflon®), lauroyl-lysine, starch, boron nitride, acrylic acid copolymers (Polytrap® from Dow Corning) and silicone resin microbeads (Tospearls® from Toshiba, for example), polyorganosiloxane elastomer particles, precipitated calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate and hydrocarbonate, hydroxyapatite, glass or ceramic microcapsules, metal soaps derived from organic carboxylic acids having 8 to 22 carbon atoms, preferably 12 to 18 carbon atoms, for example zinc, magnesium or lithium stearate, laurate zinc, magnesium myristate.

[0173] A person skilled in the art will take care to choose the optional additional additives and / or their quantity so that the advantageous properties of the composition according to the disclosure are not, or not substantially, compromised by the intended addition.

[0174] It goes without saying that the composition of the disclosure must be cosmetically or dermatologically acceptable, i.e. it must contain a non-toxic, physiologically acceptable carrier. The composition may be in any dosage form normally employed in the cosmetic and dermatological fields which is suitable for topical administration as discussed above.

[0175] These auxiliary additives may be present in the composition in a proportion of 0% to 99% (such as 0.01% to 90%) based on the total weight of the composition and further such as 0.1% to 50% by weight (where applicable), including all intermediate ranges and sub-ranges. Examples of product shapes

[0176] As discussed above, the hair compositions of the present disclosure may be in any form suitable for use as a hair care composition, and may be used for any purpose associated with such hair products.

[0177] Specific examples of hair products and formulations include, but are not limited to, shampoos and leave-in products such as conditioners or hair styling products. Generally, such compositions contain a liquid carrier and one or more ingredients to facilitate the intended use of the composition such as at least one surfactant (e.g., shampoos or other cleansing products), at least one volumizing agent (e.g., shampoos and conditioners or hair styling compositions), at least one conditioning agent (e.g., leave-in products such as conditioners), etc.

[0178] For example, the shampoo formulations of the present disclosure may contain surfactants that may decrease the surface tension of water and allow the water to better adhere to dirt on the hair to facilitate cleansing. Cleansing surfactants such as sulfates such as sodium lauryl sulfate, sodium laureth sulfate, and ammonium laureth sulfate may be used, as well as other functionally equivalent cleansing surfactants. In addition, leave-in products such as the conditioners of the present disclosure may contain emollients, particularly oils, and especially silicone oils such as cyclomethicone and polydimethylsiloxanes (dimethicones), as part of the compositions.

[0179] Examples of surfactants include, but are not limited to, the following surfactants. 1. Sticks and solid compositions:

[0180] According to preferred embodiments, the compositions of the present disclosure may be solid (e.g., in stick form). By "solid" is meant, in particular, a composition whose hardness can be measured according to the "cheese wire" method. Such compositions may contain little or no water (e.g., anhydrous, "free", "substantially free", "lacking" of water), contain little or no oil (e.g., "free", "substantially free", "lacking" of water), be in emulsion form (e.g., oil-in-water emulsion or water-in-oil), etc.

[0181] Typically, such solid compositions would be subjected to heating, force, dilution with a liquid or other action before, concurrently with and / or after application of the composition to the hair.

[0182] The hardness of a composition may, for example, be expressed in grams-force (gf). The composition of the present disclosure may, for example, have a hardness ranging from 20 gf to 2000 gf, such as from 20 gf to 900 gf, and further such as from 20 gf to 600 gf, including all intermediate ranges and sub-ranges.

[0183] The measurement of hardness can be illustrated by the following two examples. First, the above-mentioned "butter wire" method, which involves cutting a composition into a 12.4 mm diameter stick and measuring the hardness thereof at 20°C using a DFGHS 2 tensile testing machine of Indelco-Chatillon Co. or a similar machine at a speed of 100 mm / minute. The hardness value obtained by this method is expressed in grams as the shear force required to cut a stick under the above conditions. According to this method, the hardness of the compositions according to the present disclosure which may be in stick form may, for example, range from 120 gf to 270 gf, preferably from 170 gf to 220 gf, for a sample of 12.4 mm diameter.

[0184] If desired, another hardness test is carried out using a method of penetrating a probe into the composition and in particular using a texture analyzer (for example the PLUS-UPGRADE model texture analyzer from Stable Micro Systems equipped with a stainless steel cylinder 28 mm high and 2 mm in diameter). The hardness measurement can be carried out at 20 °C at the center of 5 samples of the composition. The cylinder is introduced into each sample of composition at a pre-speed of 2 mm / s, then at a speed of 0.5 mm / s and finally at a post-speed of 10 mm / s, the total displacement being 2 mm. The hardness value recorded is that of the first maximum peak before the observed value drops.

[0185] The hardness of the composition of such preferred embodiments is preferably such that the compositions are self-supporting and can readily disintegrate to form a satisfactory deposit on keratinous materials. Further, this hardness can impart good impact resistance to the compositions disclosed herein, which can be molded or cast, for example, in the form of a stick or capsule.

[0186] According to preferred embodiments, solid compositions (e.g., sticks) may be prepared by incorporating any of the ingredients discussed herein along with sufficient amounts of thickening agents to thicken the aqueous and / or oil phases of the compositions to make them "solid." Such thickening agents are well known in the art and include, for example, oil phase gelling agents, aqueous phase gelling agents, waxes, thixotropic agents, fillers, and the like, as well as mixtures of two or more of these ingredients. 1. Fluid compositions (for example, certain shampoos and leave-in products):

[0187] According to preferred embodiments, the compositions of the present disclosure may be fluid. "Fluid" means in particular a composition which is not solid at room temperature (25°C) and whose viscosity can be measured. The term "fluid" means a liquid composition which flows under its own weight at room temperature (25°C) and at atmospheric pressure. Advantageously, a fluid composition according to the present disclosure has a complex rigidity modulus G* of less than 1000 Pa, preferably less than 400 Pa, preferably less than 200 Pa. Preferably, the composition has, at 25°C, a viscosity of between 0.1 and 25 Pa.s and preferably between 0.5 and 22 Pa.s.Such compositions may contain little or no water (e.g., anhydrous, "free", "substantially free", "devoid" of water), contain little or no oil (e.g., "free", "substantially free", "devoid" of water), be in the form of an emulsion (e.g., oil-in-water emulsion or water-in-oil), etc.

[0188] A suitable method for measuring viscosity is generally carried out at 25°C, using a Rheomat RM 180 viscometer equipped with a No. 3 rod or a No. 4 rod, depending on the working recommendations, the measurement being carried out after 10 minutes of rotation of the rod in the composition (after which a stabilization of the viscosity and the rotation speed of the rod is observed), at a speed of 200 rpm.

[0189] According to preferred embodiments, the fluid compositions may be prepared by incorporating any of the ingredients discussed herein, including insufficient amounts of thickening agents to thicken the aqueous and / or oily phases of the compositions such that they remain fluid and do not become "solid." 1. Pastes (e.g., certain hair waxes and styling creams)

[0190] Between the fluid and solid compositions is a paste composition, which is a composition neither of which has viscosity nor hardness that can be measured according to the methods described above. According to preferred embodiments, the compositions Dough can be prepared by incorporating any of the ingredients discussed here. 1. Gel (e.g., certain shampoos and leave-in products)

[0191] According to preferred embodiments, gel compositions may be prepared by incorporating any of the ingredients discussed herein, including water-phase gelling agents, oil-phase gelling agents, and mixtures thereof in an amount sufficient to prepare a gel composition.

[0192] In preferred embodiments, the compositions of the present disclosure are in the form of a gel having a gel crossover point ranging from about 2% to about 50% strain, preferably from about 3% to about 40% strain, and most preferably from about 4% to about 30% strain, including all intermediate ranges and sub-ranges. The term "gel crossover point" (Sol / Gel point) means the point at which G" (loss modulus) crosses G' (storage modulus), reported as % strain. This is the point at which a composition changes from a more solid to a more liquid state. An example of a method for determining a gel crossover point is as follows: a Discovery HR-2 rheometer from TA Instruments, with a 40 mm parallel plate geometry on a flat stainless steel Peltier plate, may be used.The test can be performed at 25°C with an angular frequency test parameter of 1.0 rad / s and a logarithmic sweep: % strain from 0.1 to 1000.0%. 5 points per decade. 1. Mousse (aerosol mousse or pump mousse) (e.g., some conditioners or styling compositions)

[0193] In preferred embodiments, the compositions of the present disclosure are in the form of a foam, i.e., they comprise a gas phase dispersed in a condensed phase. By "foam" is meant a system having two or more phases in which a gas is dispersed in a condensed phase (liquid, gelled liquid and / or solid) to form a foam structure. In some embodiments, the foam is a two-phase system having a gas phase dispersed in a liquid or gelled phase. The term foam is intended to exclude conventional sprays. By "conventional spray" is meant a system in which minute particles or droplets of liquid and / or solid are suspended in a gas phase. In preferred embodiments, the foam compositions may be prepared by incorporating any of the ingredients discussed herein.

[0194] In some embodiments, the foam, after being expelled from a container onto a user's palm, will appear as an opaque mass of a certain visible thickness. If left intact on the user's palm, the opaque mass may retain its shape and appearance, without any visible change. stantial, for a period ranging from about two seconds to several hours or more. In some embodiments, the opaque mass may retain its shape and appearance for a time of at least about 10 seconds. In some other embodiments, the opaque mass may retain its shape and appearance for a time of at least one minute, such as a time of at least two minutes, such as a time of at least five minutes, such as a time of at least ten minutes. Of these times, a substantial portion of bubbles or bubble cells may remain ("residual bubbles"). The residual bubbles may be polydisperse or relatively monodisperse. In some other embodiments, the foam may include at least some fraction of residual bubbles of dispersed gas that range from about 0.25 mm to about 5 mm, such as from 0.5 mm to about 5 mm, such as from 1 mm to about 5 mm.

[0195] The size of the residual bubbles can be determined using, for example, a DFA100 foam analyzer (KRÜSS GmbH Wissenschaftliche Laborgerate). Approximately five grams of product can be dispensed into the glass tube of the foam analyzer. An image can be acquired using the camera integrated into the instrument one minute after the product has been dispensed.

[0196] According to preferred embodiments of the present disclosure, methods of protecting, improving the appearance and / or styling hair by applying compositions of the present disclosure to the hair in an amount sufficient to protect, improve the appearance, care for and / or style the hair are provided.

[0197] Preferably, "styling" the hair includes applying a composition comprising at least one styling agent such as a film-forming agent to the hair in an amount sufficient to style the hair.

[0198] Preferably, "protecting" the hair includes applying a composition of the present disclosure to the hair in an amount sufficient to protect the hair from damage resulting from exposure to UV rays.

[0199] In accordance with the preceding embodiments, the compositions of the present disclosure are applied topically to the hair in an amount sufficient to protect, enhance the appearance of, condition, and / or style the hair. The compositions may be applied to the desired area as needed, preferably once or twice daily, more preferably once daily, and then preferably allowed to dry before subjecting to contact such as with clothing or other objects (e.g., clothing or a topcoat). Preferably, the composition is allowed to dry for about 1 minute or less, more preferably for about 45 seconds or less.

[0200] The present disclosure also contemplates kits and / or materials pre packaged products suitable for consumer use containing one or more compositions according to the present description, alone or in combination with makeup products such as base coats, top coats, makeup remover compositions, etc. The packaging and application device for any subject of the disclosure may be chosen and manufactured by persons skilled in the art on the basis of their general knowledge, and adapted according to the nature of the composition to be packaged. Indeed, the type of device to be used may be linked in particular to the consistency of the composition, in particular to its viscosity; it may also depend on the nature of the constituents present in the composition, for example the presence of volatile compounds.

[0201] Unless otherwise indicated, all numbers expressing amounts of ingredients, reaction conditions, and so forth used in the patent specification and claims are to be understood as being modified in all instances by the term "about." Accordingly, unless otherwise indicated, the numerical parameters set forth in the following patent specification and appended claims are approximations which may vary depending on the desired properties sought to be achieved by the present disclosure.

[0202] Although the numerical ranges and parameters defining the general scope of the disclosure are approximations, the numerical values ​​indicated in the specific examples are reported as accurately as possible. However, any numerical value inherently contains certain errors necessarily resulting from the standard deviation found in their respective measurements. The following examples are intended to illustrate the disclosure without, however, limiting its scope. Percentages are given on a weight basis.
