Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a biphasic composition consisting of a separated aqueous phase and an oily phase, the oily phase comprising a specific oil. The present invention also relates to the use of such a composition, and a method for removing makeup using such a composition. Background Art
[0002] Compositions consisting of two separated phases, in particular an aqueous phase and an oily phase that are separated and not emulsified with each other at rest, are generally referred to by the term "biphasic composition". They differ from emulsions in that, at rest, the two phases are separated and not emulsified with each other. The use of these biphasic compositions requires pre-stirring to form an emulsion; the latter needs to have sufficient quality and stability to allow the two phases to be uniformly applied to the skin or keratin material to which it is applied. At rest, the phases must quickly separate from each other and return to their initial state, a phenomenon that is generally referred to by the term "phase separation" or "stratification".
[0003] One of the desired qualities of a biphasic composition is the relatively rapid stratification of the two phases after use. In fact, for various reasons, it is desirable to achieve rapid phase separation, especially because poor separation of the two phases is considered inelegant by the user and may cause the product to become "triphasic" over time.
[0004] In addition, commercially available biphasic compositions are particularly used for removing makeup from the face, especially from the eyes, and contain cyclopentasiloxane.
[0005] However, the cosmetics market tends to focus on increasingly natural, including more environmentally friendly compounds and / or compositions derived from biomass. In particular, there is a need for compositions that do not contain cyclopentasiloxane. Summary of the Invention
[0006] Therefore, there is still a need for new stable biphasic compositions that consist of two separated and immiscible phases, do not contain cyclopentasiloxane, and have good stratification quality while ensuring effective makeup removal. There is also a need for natural compositions. A "natural composition" means a cosmetic composition formulated mainly with natural ingredients and / or ingredients of natural origin. A "natural ingredient" means a compound obtained directly from the land or soil or from a plant or animal (where applicable) by one or more physical processes such as, for example, grinding, refining, distillation, purification or filtration. An "ingredient of natural origin" means a natural compound that has undergone one or more chemical treatments or related industrial treatments that produce modifications that are harmless to the basic qualities of the compound, and / or a compound that mainly comprises natural ingredients and that may or may not have undergone the transformations described above.
[0007] The inventors surprisingly found that a ternary combination of isododecane, isopropyl palmitate and isopropyl myristate in specific proportions, in combination with water, enables the obtaining of a biphasic composition that meets these requirements. The composition according to the invention is stable, free of cyclopentasiloxane, and particularly has good layering quality and is very effective for makeup removal.
[0008] More specifically, the present invention relates to a cosmetic composition consisting of a separated aqueous phase and an oily phase, wherein the oily phase comprises:
[0009] - 48% to 82% by weight of isododecane, relative to the total weight of the oily phase;
[0010] - 10% to 22% by weight of isopropyl palmitate, relative to the total weight of the oily phase; and
[0011] - 8% to 18% by weight of isopropyl myristate, relative to the total weight of the oily phase,
[0012] The composition does not contain C15-C19 alkanes.
[0013] Such a composition according to the invention is a biphasic composition.
[0014] The present invention also relates to a composition consisting of:
[0015] - 48% to 82% by weight of isododecane, relative to the total weight of the composition;
[0016] - 10% to 22% by weight of isopropyl palmitate, relative to the total weight of the composition; and
[0017] - 8% to 18% by weight of isopropyl myristate, relative to the total weight of the composition,
[0018] The composition does not contain C15-C19 alkanes.
[0019] The composition is also referred to as a "ternary mixture" in the present application. The ternary mixture corresponds to the preferred oily phase of the biphasic composition according to the invention.
[0020] The present invention also relates to a method for removing makeup and / or cleaning and / or caring for keratinous materials, comprising applying the biphasic composition or ternary mixture according to the invention to the keratinous materials, particularly keratinous materials of the eye area, preferably the eyelashes.
[0021] The present invention also relates to the use of the biphasic composition or ternary mixture according to the invention for removing makeup and / or cleaning and / or caring for keratinous materials, particularly keratinous materials of the eye area, preferably the eyelashes.

[0071] Example
[0072] Example 1: Preparation of a comparative composition and a composition according to the invention
[0073] 1. Experimental plan for 4 variables (i.e., oil content):
[0074] % by weight relative to the weight of the oily phase:
[0075] Isododecane (QS) - Isopropyl palmitate (0 to 30%) - Isopropyl myristate (0 to 30%) - C15-C19 alkanes (0 to 35%)
[0076] - Oil phase preparation
[0077] In a beaker, add 4 kinds of oils (with different contents), and homogenize them cold for 20 minutes.
[0078] The composition of the oily phase is shown in Tables 2 to 5 below. In Tables 2 to 5, the percentages are by weight relative to the total weight of the oily phase.
[0079] - Aqueous phase preparation
[0080] Aqueous phase composition
[0081] [Table 1]
[0082]
[0083] The aqueous phase was prepared as follows:
[0084] In a beaker, add the raw materials of Phase A and heat to 65 °C. After dispersing for 20 minutes, add Raw Material B (the water must be cold), and disperse for 10 minutes.
[0085] - Integration in the biphasic composition
[0086] Measure the density of the two phases.
[0087] To obtain a biphasic composition with a weight ratio of 85% aqueous phase / 15% oily phase, the following calculations were carried out:
[0088] [Mathematical formula 1]
[0089]
[0090] [Mathematical formula 2]
[0091]
[0092] Calculate the m of each phase 相 And pour the corresponding substances into the selected packaging.
[0093] The following various compositions were obtained by mixing the aqueous phase in Table 1 with the oily phase (Tables 2 to 5) detailed below.
[0094] a. Height of the oil phase (clear) in cm after 45 seconds of stirring
[0095] Protocol: Stir the biphasic composition 10 times by rotation, then start the timer. After 45 seconds, measure the height of the separated oily phase with a ruler.
[0096] Target: 0.5 cm high
[0097] b. Height of the oil phase (clear) in cm after 1 minute of stirring
[0098] Procedure: Rotate and stir the biphasic composition 10 times, then start the timer. After 1 minute, measure the height of the separated oily phase with a ruler.
[0099] Target: 1.2 cm in height
[0100] c. Presence of droplets on the wall of the oil phase after 4 days of stirring
[0101] Procedure: For 5 consecutive days, rotate and stir the biphasic composition 10 times each day. Let the biphasic composition stand for 24 hours, then repeat the operation the next day. On the 5th day, do not stir and evaluate the biphasic composition.
[0102] The presence of droplets on the wall of the oily phase can be detected and annotated as follows:
[0103] 0 = No droplets; 1 = Very fine / sparse droplets; 2 = Fine / few droplets; 3 = Medium / more droplets; 4: Large / many droplets
[0104] Target: 2 or less
[0105] d. Clarity of the interface after 4 days of stirring
[0106] Procedure: For 5 consecutive days, rotate and stir the biphasic composition 10 times each day. Let the biphasic composition stand for 24 hours, then repeat the operation the next day. On the 5th day, do not stir and evaluate the biphasic composition. The interface corresponds to the dividing line between the aqueous phase and the oily phase.
[0107] The instability is annotated as follows:
[0108] 1 = Very turbid interface / large droplets; 2 = Turbid interface / medium droplets; 3 = Well-defined interface - sparse droplets; 4 = Well-defined interface - some micro-droplets; 5 = Well-defined interface
[0109] Target: 3 or more
[0110] Effect of C15 - C19 alkane content
[0111] [Table 2]
[0112]
[0113] The stratification rate of the two phases is evaluated by measuring the height of the oily phase after stirring for 45 seconds. The target is set at 0.5 cm. When C15 - C19 alkanes are added to the composition (Comparative Example 1) or completely replace isododecane (Comparative Example 2), the target is not achieved.
[0114] Thus, the biphasic composition and the ternary mixture according to the invention must not contain any alkanes other than isododecane.
[0115] Effect of isopropyl myristate content
[0116] [Table 3]
[0117]
[0118]
[0119] Evaluate the height of the oily phase after stirring for 1 minute and the presence of droplets on the wall after 4 days of stirring.
[0120] When the isopropyl myristate content is strictly less than 8% or strictly greater than 18%, the target is not achieved.
[0121] Thus, isopropyl myristate must be present at 8 wt% to 18 wt% relative to the total weight of the oil phase.
[0122] Effect of isopropyl palmitate content
[0123] [Table 4]
[0124]
[0125] Evaluate the clarity of the interface after 4 days of stirring and the presence of droplets on the wall after 4 days of stirring. When the isopropyl palmitate content is less than 10%, the target for the presence of droplets is not achieved. When the content is greater than 22%, these two targets are not achieved.
[0126] Thus, isopropyl palmitate must be present at 10 wt% to 22 wt% relative to the total weight of the oil phase.
[0127] Effect of isododecane content
[0128] [Table 5]
[0129]
[0130]
[0131] Evaluate the height of the oily phase after stirring for 45 seconds and the presence of droplets on the wall after 4 days of stirring. When the isododecane content is less than 48%, the 2 targets are not achieved. When the content is greater than 82%, the target for the presence of droplets is not achieved.
[0132] Thus, isododecane must be present at 48 wt% to 82 wt% relative to the total weight of the oil phase.
[0133] Isopropyl palmitate is essential, especially to obtain a small amount of droplets after 4 days of stirring.
[0134] Isopropyl myristate is essential, especially to obtain good stratification.
[0135] 2. Effect of ratio
[0136] Test other ratios with the following compositions (same oily phase composition, see below):
[0137] ·A 70% aqueous phase / 30% oil phase ratio; and
[0138] ·A 56% aqueous phase / 44% oil phase ratio.
[0139] Composition of the aqueous phase
[0140] The composition of the aqueous phase is shown in Table 1.
[0141] Composition of the oil phase
[0142] [Table 6]
[0143] Phase Raw material Percentage A Isododecane 65% A Isopropyl palmitate 15% A Isopropyl myristate 17.7% A Additive QS100
[0144] Testing different ratios
[0145] [Table 7]
[0146]
[0147] At the same phase composition but different ratios, the tests were stable relative to the target.
