Description

[0001] The present invention relates to cosmetic agents for the temporary reshaping of keratin-containing fibers, which contain a combination of at least one chitosan compound, a hydrophobic silica, and a film-forming polymer in a cosmetic carrier. The invention further relates to the use of the cosmetic agents for increasing the volume and body of hair and for improving curl retention, in particular high-humidity curl retention.

[0002] Temporary styling products are well-known. They typically contain synthetic polymers as the shaping component. Preparations containing a dissolved or dispersed polymer can be applied to the hair using propellant gases or a pump mechanism. Hair gels and waxes, in particular, are generally not applied directly to the hair, but rather distributed through it using a comb or the hands. The most important property of a temporary styling product for keratin-containing fibers, also referred to as a styling agent, is to provide the treated fibers with the strongest possible hold in the resulting style. When the keratin-containing fibers are human hair, this is also described as strong hold or a high level of hold.

[0003] Cosmetic styling products typically contain individual polymers specifically designed to achieve a particular effect. To achieve a variety of effects, several polymers must be added. However, using too many different polymers can lead to a number of disadvantages. For example, formulation problems can arise because the polymers react with each other or with other components of the product, resulting in precipitation or decomposition. Certain polymers also tend to accumulate so persistently on the skin and especially on the hair that they cannot be completely removed during normal washing, leading to an undesirable polymer buildup and ultimately causing irritation to the skin or hair.

[0004] Therefore, there is a constant need for polymers or suitable combinations of fewer polymers that exhibit as many of the desired properties as possible simultaneously.

[0005] For example, in the case of styling products, it is essential that the polymers used provide the treated hair with the strongest possible hold. Besides a high hold, however, styling products must meet a whole range of other requirements. These can be broadly divided into properties on the hair, properties of the specific formulation (e.g., properties of the foam, gel, or sprayed aerosol), and properties relating to the handling of the styling product, with the properties on the hair being of particular importance. These include, in particular, humidity resistance, low stickiness, and a balanced conditioning effect. Furthermore, a styling product should ideally be universally applicable to all hair types.

[0006] Hairstyle hold in general, and curl retention in particular for wavy hair, places special demands on styling products. Curl retention is a measure of how well the curls are held. Typically, curl retention decreases when the treated hair is in a humid environment, as the hair's tendency to absorb moisture (water) leads to limp, droopy strands.

[0007] The object of the present invention was therefore to provide means for the temporary deformation of keratin-containing fibers that result in significantly improved curl retention, in particular significantly improved high-humidity curl retention, i.e., a better degree of curl retention even in humid environments, preferably with further improvement in hairstyle hold and hair feel (softness and elasticity). A further object of the present invention was to increase and / or maintain hair volume, especially in humid environments.

[0008] These tasks were solved by a special combination of active ingredients comprising chitosan, silica and a film-forming polymer.

[0009] A first object of the invention is therefore a cosmetic agent for the temporary reshaping of keratin-containing fibers, in particular human hair, which contains in a cosmetic carrier a combination of the active ingredients a)–c): a) at least one chitosan or its derivative, b) at least one hydrophobic pyrogenic silica and c) at least one nonionic, anionic or amphoteric film-forming polymer.

effectiveness

[0062] The following compositions according to the invention (6) and those not according to the invention (1–5) were prepared and investigated in the laboratory with regard to curl retention and volume / body (ring method) (the quantities in the table refer to wt.%): 1(5) 2(6) 3(7) 4(8) 5(9) 6(10) a): Hydamer ® HCMF 0,3 0,2 0,5 0,5 c): Luviskol ® K 85 6,0 1,5 c): Luviskol ® K 90 (20% AS) 1,5 c): PVP / VA copolymer 60 / 40 (50% AS) 13 4,0 6,5 4,0 4,0 b) Aerosil ® R972 0,5 0,5 Dehyquart ® A CA 1,0 1,0 0,9 1,0 1,0 Behentrimonium chloride 0,4 PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil 0,2 0,2 0,2 0,2 Propane-Butane 6,0 6,0 10 6,0 6,0 n-Butane 5,0 Dimethyl ether 10 Preservatives, acidifiers, perfume, water ad 100 ad 100 ad 100 ad 100 ad 100 ad 100 a) Examination of curl retention

[0063] Each of the above-mentioned compositions was tested on 10 hair strands, each weighing approximately 1 g and 20 cm long. The strands were washed twice with a 14% sodium laureth sulfate solution and rinsed with water. Then, 3.5 cm of each strand was removed. 3Compositions 1–6 were applied to the hair strands, which were then wound around spiral curlers (6 mm diameter and 160 mm length). The strands were dried in a drying oven (45 ± 1)°C for one hour and then left to rest for 18 hours at (22 ± 1)°C and (65 ± 5)% relative humidity. Afterward, the strands were carefully removed from the curlers and, secured at the top, placed in a climate chamber ((21 ± 1)°C and (85 ± 5)% relative humidity). The length of each strand was measured before placement in the climate chamber (L0) and after 13, 30, 60, and 90 minutes, as well as after 2, 3, 4, 5, and 8 hours in the climate chamber. Curl retention was determined as a percentage using the following equation: Curl Retention [%] = L – Lt L – L0 ·100, where L the length of the strands before winding them onto the curlers, L0 the length of the strands before placement in the climate chamber and Lt means the length of the strands after the respective time spent in the climate chamber.

[0064] The following table summarizes the values ​​determined after 8 hours (mean of 10 measured hair strands). It is clearly evident that those hair strands treated with the compositions according to the invention exhibit the best curl retention. measurement Curl Retention (Mean Values) [%] 1 2 3 4 5 6 8 hours 45,7 38,4 44,8 40,9 44,8 49,1 b) Examination of volume and body using the ring method

[0065] The volume and body of the hair were determined by drawing a strand of hair through a metal ring of a specific diameter and measuring the force required. The more resistant the strands were to deformation (body), the more force was needed. Each of the compositions 1–6 was tested on 10 strands of hair (each weighing 3 g and 20 cm long). Before the test, the hair strands were washed twice with a 14% sodium laureth sulfate solution, dried (for one hour in a drying oven at (45 ± 1)°C), and then left to rest for 18 hours at (22 ± 1)°C and (50 ± 5)% relative humidity. Subsequently, compositions 1–6 (each 3.5 cm) were tested. 3(per 1 g of hair) was applied to 50% damp strands and massaged in for 1 minute each. To generate volume, the strands were wound onto rollers, dried for 45 minutes at 45°C, and left to rest overnight at 20°C and 65% relative humidity. After removal from the rollers, the strands were combed with the same number of strokes using a metal comb. The treated strands were then pulled through rings of decreasing diameter (20 mm and 12 mm), and the force required was measured. The following table shows the test results for "Tactile Volume / Body" for the 12 mm ring diameter (average of 10 measured hair strands). It is clearly evident that those hair strands treated with the compositions according to the invention showed the best values ​​for "Body". showed. 1 2 3 4 5 6 untreated Body (resistance) 7,9 6,7 7,2 8,7 8,3 14,5 6,6 Standard deviation 0,7 0,5 0,6 0,6 0,8 1,4 0,7 QUOTES INCLUDED IN THE DESCRIPTION
