AI Technical Summary
Cosmetic emulsions without silicones and polymers polymerized in homo or copolymerization with acrylic acid face challenges in achieving the right viscosity without tackiness and bouncy gel structure, while also minimizing foaming issues.
A cosmetic oil in water emulsion thickened by a combination of diisopropyl adipate and polyglyceryl-3 methylglucose distearate, or at least one polyglycerylester of polyglycerin and one or more fatty acids with 12 to 22 carbon atoms, which reduces tackiness and foaming, achieving a smooth application without silicone-based antifoaming agents.
The solution provides a low-tack and low-foaming cosmetic emulsion with a preferred viscosity, ensuring a rich, non-sticky texture and improved sensory properties without the use of silicones or undesirable polymers, as demonstrated by specific weight percentage ranges and preferred components.

Description
[0001] Cosmetic emulsion with diisopropyl adipate and polyglycerylester
[0002] Technical field
[0003] The present invention belongs to the cosmetic field and relates to a cosmetic emulsion which is thickened by a combination of diisopropyl adipate and at least one polyglycerylester.
[0004] Background art
[0005] Cosmetic products generally not only serve to look beautiful and attractive, but their effects make a decisive contribution to increased self-esteem and people's wellbeing. Accordingly, a wide variety of cosmetic products are used for the daily cleaning and care of human skin.
[0006] A well-known group of cosmetic products are body lotions and cosmetic face care products. The formulations are usually formulated as oil in water emulsion. In the past the formulations contained silicone oils and polymers polymerized in a homo or copolymerization with acrylic acid. Those compounds allowed for a pleased sensory, so that the lotion can be easy spread over the skin providing a fresh non sticky feeling. The formulations do absorb easily. Thereby, the named polymers are often used to thicken the formulations to the right viscosity such that the formulations have a rich body and do not easily run off the skin.
[0007] However, it is desirable for various reasons to provide formulations free from both silicones and polymers polymerized in a homo or copolymerization with acrylic acid. These biopolymers such as xanthan gum and hydroxypropyl starch phosphate often allow to build up sufficient viscosity in oil in water emulsions. However, at the required viscosity level the quantity of those biopolymers may cause the formulations to become quite tacky. Further, those formulations often have the disadvantage, since they have a bouncy gel structure or they have insufficient sensory properties.
[0008] Thus, in order to reduce the amount of biopolymers other methods and techniques are required to build up viscosity in emulsion formulations.
[0009] The document WO 2014 / 181747 A1 discloses oil based thickening agents. However, these agents comprise silicone structures, which are not desirable anymore.
[0010] The document US4939179A discloses a thickened emulsion. The thickening agent is an isoparaffin and a C8-C22 alkyl phosphate.
[0011] However, none of the documents can direct the person skilled in art to the present invention. Summary of the invention
[0012] It was surprisingly found by the applicant that the combination of the present invention allows for a thickening of oil in water emulsions. The formulations according to the invention have a low tackiness. The bouncy gel structure can be reduced due to the different thickening approach.
[0013] The present invention relates to a cosmetic oil in water emulsion comprising a) diisopropyl adipate, and b) polyglyceryl-3 methylglucose distearate and / or at least one polyglycerylester of polyglycerin and one or more fatty acid having 12 to 22 carbon atoms.
[0014] A further object of the invention is the use of diisopropyl adipate, and a) polyglyceryl-3 methylglucose distearate, and / or b) at least one polyglycerylester of polyglycerin and one or more fatty acid having 12 to 22 carbon atoms to thicken an oil in water emulsion.
[0015] It was surprisingly further noted that the emulsions of the invention did show a very low foaming level upon application on the human skin. This is especially surprising, as the formulations are formulated without silicones. Most often silicone oils are used as antifoaming agent. E.g. dimethicone has low surface tension and is not easy to dissolve into water or other oil ingredients. As result it can easily move to the surface of the foam characteristic air bubbles appearing upon application of the cosmetic product to the human skin and spread on the bubble surface. This process renders the surface of the bubble to become uneven so that the bubbles start to combine and break faster.
[0016] All the weight percentages (% by weight) given below relate, unless otherwise stated, to the total weight of the cosmetic emulsion. If ratios of certain components are disclosed in the following description, these ratios refer, unless otherwise stated, to weight ratios of the components.
[0017] Unless otherwise stated, all tests and measurements were performed under “normal conditions”. The term "normal conditions" refers to 20°C, 1013 hPa and a relative humidity of 50%. In the following description the terms “according to the invention”, “preferred according to the invention” and so on are always directed to the use according to the invention, to the composition and to the method according to the invention.
[0018] For the purposes of the present disclosure, the term "free from" means that the proportion of the respective substance is less than 0.05% by weight. This ensures that entrainments or impurities with these substances are not included as "free from" according to the invention.
[0019] The term “skin” refers solely to the human skin.
[0020] If viscosity values are given in this disclosure, then all values relate to a measurement at 25° C. in a 150 ml wide-mouth bottle (VWR No.: 807-001) using Rheomat R 123 from the company proRheo. The Rheomat R 123 from proRheo GmbH is a rotational viscometer, i.e. a measuring body rotates in the substance to be measured. The force required to rotate the measuring body in the sample at a specified speed is measured. The viscosity is calculated from this torque, the speed of the measuring body and the geometric dimensions of the measuring system used. Measuring body No. 1 (Article No. 200 0191 ), suitable for a viscosity range of up to 10,000 [mPa s], speed range 62.5 min-1, is used as the measuring body.
