Description

Title of the invention: “Expandable composition”

[0001] The present invention relates to an expandable composition and its use for the temporary shaping of keratin fibers.

[0002] Compositions for the temporary shaping of keratin fibers, preferably hair, are known as hair styling compositions or hair styling products, and are generally used in the form of gels, pomades, wax, expansion, mousse and spray.

[0003] In particular, expansions and mousses are mainly applied directly to the keratin fibers, which are then shaped into the desired shape with the hands. Keratin fibers include all fibers that contain keratin, such as wool, furs, feathers, and in particular human hair, with human hair being particularly preferred. In the case of temporary shaping of keratin fibers, no chemical processes (oxidation and reduction) take place, rather the fibers are shaped by the application of styling products containing fixing active ingredients, such as polymers.

[0004] Styling expander and styling mousse are often packaged in aerosol cans containing propellant gases. In addition, they often contain synthetic polymers to fix hairstyles without negatively affecting the shine and healthy, natural appearance of the hair. Synthetic polymers are often prepared from synthetic monomers, which are obtained by refining fossil fuels such as petroleum with high energy consumption.

[0005] In the context of a more responsible approach to the nature and limited nature of raw material reserves, the demand of end consumers for natural and sustainable products, i.e. products made from renewable raw materials, using as little energy as possible, is increasing more and more.

[0006] In particular, microplastic constituents are at the center of consumer concerns. Contrary to the original definition of microplastics, soluble plastics are also increasingly considered as such. Thus, all non-degradable polymers are included in this term.

[0007] The use of propellant gases is also becoming less accepted by end users and the demand for other alternative products packaged in pump dispensers is increasing.

[0008] Therefore, the objective of current research is to develop styling mousses that have the same foaming power as known products, provide firm and long-lasting hold and fixation of the hairstyle and do not leave a film. visible on the surface of the hair which would give the hair a rough and dull appearance.

[0009] The invention therefore aims to provide an expandable composition for the temporary shaping of keratin fibres which contains natural ingredients and at the same time has the same foaming power and the same styling properties as compositions formulated with propellant gases.

[0010] The objective is achieved by a composition comprising

[0011] a) at least one disaccharide and

[0012] b) at least one amphoteric surfactant,

[0013] the composition being free of synthetic film-forming polymers.

[0014] The composition designates a cosmetic composition which can be formulated in the usual forms of compositions, for example in the form of gel, wax, paste, expansion, mousse, emulsions, lotion or clay, the composition is preferably formulated in the form of expansion or mousse, the composition is even more preferably formulated in the form of expansion.

[0015] The composition may be aqueous or hydroalcoholic. As a cosmetically acceptable carrier component, the aqueous composition contains water, preferably distilled water, most particularly distilled water without H2O2. The proportion of water in the composition is preferably 60 to 98% by weight, particularly preferably 75 to 96% by weight, very particularly preferably 83 to 94% by weight, even more preferably 88 to 93% by weight, relative to the total proportion of the composition.

[0016] In a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention, the composition comprises water such that the remaining constituents contained in the composition are made up to 100% by weight, measured relative to the total weight of the composition, also referred to as "make up to 100". The sum of all constituents of the composition is 100% by weight, relative to the total proportion of the composition.

[0017] For the purposes of the invention, disaccharide denotes double sugars which are composed of two monosaccharides chosen from glucose, fructose, galactose, rhamnose and xylose. Preferred disaccharides are chosen from sucrose, lactose, lactulose, trehalose, maltose, maltulose, cellobiose, gentobiose, isomaltose, isomaltulose, laminaribiose, melibiose, neohesperidose, neotrehalose, nigerose, rutinose, sambubiose, sucrose, particularly preferably sucrose, lactose, maltose, trehalose and mixtures thereof.

[0018] The at least one disaccharide preferably comprises sucrose (INCI: Sucrose). In a preferred embodiment, the at least one disaccharide is sucrose (INCI: Sucrose).

[0019] Preferably, the at least one amphoteric surfactant is chosen from alkylbetaines, alkylamidobetaines, aminopropionates, aminoglycinates, imidazolinium betaines, sulfobetaines and mixtures thereof.

[0020] Amphoteric or zwitterionic surfactants carry both a cationic charge and an anionic charge in the molecule. Amphoteric surfactants preferably have at least one quaternary ammonium group and at least one -COO(-) or -SO3(-) group, in addition to an alkyl or acyl group, preferably C8-C24, in the molecule. They are also capable of forming internal salts. Particularly suitable amphoteric surfactants are betaines, such as N-alkyl-N,N-dimethylammonium glycinates, e.g. cocoalkyldimethylammonium glycinate, N-acylaminopropyl-N,N-dimethylammonium glycinate, e.g. cocoacylaminopropyl-dimethylammonium glycinate, and 2-alkyl-3-carboxymethyl-3-hydroxyethyl-imidazolines having, in each case, from 8 to 18 carbon atoms in the alkyl or acyl group, as well as cocoacylaminoethylhydroxyethylcarboxymethyl glycinate.A preferred amphoteric surfactant is the fatty acid amide derivative known under the INCI name Cocamidopropyl Betaine. Regarding the structure and manufacture of these substances, we refer to the relevant works, e.g., J. Falbe (ed.), SURFACTANTS IN CONSUMER PRODUCTS, Springer Verlag, Berlin, 1987, pp. 54-124 or J. Falbe (ed.), KATALYSATOREN, TENSIDE UND MINERALÔLADDITIVE, Thieme Verlag, Stuttgart, 1978, pp. 123-217.

[0021] The composition is free from synthetic film-forming polymers. Synthetic film-forming polymers are understood to mean all polymers which leave a continuous film upon drying, in particular on the hair. Film-forming polymers are also understood to mean polymers which, when used in aqueous, alcoholic or hydroalcoholic solution at 0.01 to 20% by weight, are capable of depositing a transparent polymer film, in particular on the hair.
