Description

Title of the invention: Cosmetic composition with customizable texture Technical field of the invention

[0001] The present invention relates to a composition, in particular a cosmetic composition, which can serve as a formulating base, and its use for the manufacture of cosmetic compositions with varied and personalized textures. Background to the invention

[0002] New digital technologies mark the advent of hyper-personalized cosmetics. Thus, new launches of "personalization" type cosmetic products are based, for example, on a new mixing device, a new digital application, a new skin diagnostic process or a process for determining the color of a cosmetic product that corresponds to the skin color of a user.

[0003] Several models coexist. In particular, there is "homemade" cosmetics, where consumers make their own beauty products, for example using boxes of ingredients. Personalized products can be made at home, by mixing the ingredients by hand or with tools such as a spoon, spatula, whisk, or using a mixer. The most classic cosmetics personalization is "mixology" which consists of mixing different ingredients with a process very often involving heating and low-energy mixing equipment such as a manual whisk. The diversity of raw materials, the complexity of their handling and the following of a particular recipe makes the approach tedious and does not allow for obtaining a homogeneous and efficient mixture close to industrial quality.

[0004] Furthermore, the approach to customization at the industrial level is also very complex with classic operational systems.

[0005] Personalization at the point of sale is also booming, particularly for skin care and makeup. Foundations and lipsticks can now be made on site, at the counter, in front of the customer, using micro-factories, offering thousands of possible combinations. This is what SkinCeuticals offers, for example, with a personalized skin care service called "Custom DOSE", or even Lancôme's "Teint Particulier". In the case of "Teint Particulier", a Lancôme beauty advisor accompanies each customer and begins the consultation with a skin scan in three different places to precisely analyze the type and shade. An algorithm interprets the data collected to define the ideal foundation formulation. Thanks to its sensitivity With a chromatic accuracy superior to that of the human eye, the algorithm allows you to choose the shade perfectly suited to each skin tone. The tailor-made formula is then prepared in-store in around twenty minutes. While the shade can be adjusted, so can the level of hydration and coverage, with 72,000 possible combinations.

[0006] To date, there is no cosmetic product offering for which it would be possible to personalize the texture, while guaranteeing, for example, the same stability or constant effectiveness of active ingredients regardless of the texture.

[0007] There therefore remains a real need to provide new compositions of formulating bases, hereinafter “blocks”, making it possible to easily create and prepare, by mixing between said cosmetic blocks, a whole range of cosmetic textures, and thus allow complete personalization.

[0008] On the other hand, consumers have a heightened environmental awareness, expectations of more naturalness, the need to be reassured about the ingredients of cosmetic formulas, in particular their safety, their low environmental footprint, their origin, or even their renewable nature.

[0009] The present invention aims to propose formulas that respond to this quest for environmental responsibility, for thoughtful, more sober consumption, for cosmetic products that are both simpler but also more precise, freshly prepared, on demand and "tailor-made". These formulas must correspond perfectly to their skin, their desires and their environment.

[0010] The present invention therefore aims to develop a composition, in particular a formulating base or “base block”, which is both minimalist but sufficiently robust in terms of stability criteria, to be able to withstand different formulating environments, when mixing said base block with other so-called “functional” blocks, and thus allow the obtaining of stable personalized compositions whatever the final texture required.

[0011] To be able to be described as “robust”, the base block must be able to withstand different dilution rates, different types of processes, including mixing processes at room temperature and using the lowest possible energy, but also the addition of electrolytes, fluctuations in pH, temperature, and the addition of various cosmetic ingredients, to enable the obtaining of personalized and stable final compositions whatever the final texture required.

[0012] In any case, it should be noted that the mixing efficiency is lower than that of industrialized cosmetics. Therefore, to ensure the stability and quality of these mixtures, it is necessary to design new pre-formulated cosmetic preparations (also called “cosmetic blocks”) that are easy to assemble and mix using agile manufacturing methods, including “ by blocks”. Thus, this trend towards extreme personalization creates a need for new types of formulations, and in particular compositions capable of being formulated quickly on demand.

[0013] The present invention therefore aims to design a robust formulating “block” composition that can be combined “custom-made” with different functional blocks by means of low-energy stirring (in particular by means of a Speedmixer®) and at room temperature (typically 25°C).

[0014] The present invention thus aims to design a common concentrated formula base, a true "engine block" of the formula of different cosmetic products with varied final textures, said base being sufficiently robust to be customized by adding other blocks. In addition, the present invention also aims to facilitate the preparation process of each final cosmetic product thus customized, by making it possible industrially to manage only one type of base, and to guarantee the quality and speed of preparation, not only of said base or engine block (hereinafter "BM") then of each customized final product which uses it.

[0015] The applicant has surprisingly discovered that all of these objectives can be achieved by the composition according to the present invention. Summary of the invention

[0016] According to a first aspect, the present invention therefore relates to a composition, in particular a formulating base, comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable medium:

[0017] A) at least two diols comprising at least:

[0018] - a first major diol chosen from those in list Al consisting of: propylene glycol, 1,3-propanediol or di-propylene glycol,

[0019] - a second diol different from the first and chosen from those of said list Al and / or those in list A2 consisting of diols containing 4 to 8 carbon atoms.

[0020] B) at least two fatty alcohols containing from 16 to 22 carbon atoms;

[0021] C) at least two alkylpolyglucosides in which the alkyl chain comprises 16 with 22 carbon atoms; and

[0022] D) water.

[0023] According to a second aspect, the subject of the present invention is the use of a composition according to the invention, for the manufacture of at least one cosmetic product with a personalized texture, in which said composition is mixed, preferably in blocks, with one or more other compositions (blocks), in particular pre-formulated, said mixture being preferably carried out at a temperature in the range of 15 to 50°C, preferably at room temperature in the range of 20 to 30°C, preferably at a temperature close to 25°C, preferably under stirring at a stirring speed in the range of 200 to 3000 rpm, preferably 200 to 2000 rpm, preferably 200 to 1000 rpm, preferably by means of a Speedmixer®, preferably directly in the final container of said cosmetic product.

[0024] According to a third aspect, the present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a composition according to the invention, comprising at least the following steps:

[0025] - heating and mixing ingredients A) to D) at a temperature within the range from 50 to 85°C, preferably from 60 to 80°C until a homogeneous aqueous dispersion of said fatty substances in the aqueous phase is obtained;

[0026] - cooling the dispersion thus obtained to a temperature below 30°C;

[0027] - recover the composition, in particular the formulating base, according to the invention.

[0028] According to a fourth aspect, the present invention relates to a kit comprising:

[0029] - On the one hand a composition (a) in accordance with the invention as defined above,

[0030] - On the other hand one or more compositions (b),

[0031] in which said compositions respectively (b) and (a) are packaged separately and intended to be mixed extemporaneously to form a cosmetic product, preferably an oil-in-water emulsion, in particular a makeup, makeup removal, cleansing or care product for the skin, mucous membranes, appendages or hair.

[0032] According to a fifth aspect, the present invention relates to a non-therapeutic process for caring for, making up or removing make-up from the skin, including the scalp, hair and / or lips, comprising the application to the skin, hair and / or lips of a composition as defined according to the invention.

[0033] The present invention thus proposes a simple minimalist universal base ("engine block" with industrial quality) which already has the appearance of a cream with an interesting basic sensory effect (fresh / moisturizing without soaping or sticky effect) and which has the capacity to stabilize at room temperature one or more raw materials ("functional blocks") from several families such as Fatty substances, Water, Active ingredients, Gelling agents, Fillers, Pigments. The mixing of the base block with the functional block(s) can be done at room temperature directly in the packaging or final container with a low-energy mixing tool and preferably of the asymmetric or planetary type (Speedmixer® type) but it is not excluded to heat the whole.The increment allows you to explore a wide range of textures (from lotion to serum, including creams and balms) and sensory effects for care or hybrid (BBcream) applications for various areas ranging from the face, hair, to the body.

[0034] The present robust formulating block composition allows rapid tailor-made formulation by simply combining said block with different functional blocks, and allows exploring a whole range of textures, sensory effects and benefits with a performance at least equal to conventional formulas, manufactured according to a conventional industrial process by mixing raw material by raw material. Detailed description of the invention

[0035] For the purposes of the present invention, and unless otherwise indicated:

[0036] By "keratin materials" is meant the skin, the mucous membranes and / or the appendages. Preferably, the keratin materials are the skin, in particular the skin of the face, the mucous membranes such as the lips, and / or the appendages such as the eyelashes.

[0037] The compositions according to the invention may be cosmetic or dermatological compositions. Preferably, they are cosmetic compositions.

[0038] The composition according to the invention contains a cosmetically acceptable medium.

[0039] In the present invention, the term "cosmetically acceptable medium" means a non-toxic medium, compatible with keratin materials, in particular with the skin (including the inside of the eyelids), mucous membranes, hair or lips of human beings. A cosmetic composition is a product having a pleasant appearance, odor and feel, and intended for topical application.

[0040] By "soluble or solubilized compound" is meant a compound which can be dissolved in a liquid, or which is miscible, and forms only a single homogeneous phase when incorporated into the liquid.

[0041] The expressions “between ... and ...” and “ranging from ... to ...” must be understood inclusively, unless otherwise specified.

[0042] The expressions “at least one” and “one or more” are synonymous and can be used interchangeably.

[0043] In the description and examples, unless otherwise indicated, the contents and percentages are weight percentages. The percentages are therefore generally expressed by weight relative to the total weight of the composition unless otherwise indicated. The ratios are also weight ratios. The temperature is expressed in degrees Celsius unless otherwise indicated, and the pressure is atmospheric pressure, unless otherwise indicated.

[0044] - By high-performance composition, we mean a base composition robust to various possible constraints (pH, salts, dilution, heating, cold emulsification with low energy, etc.) that can be imposed by the addition of other (blocks of) raw materials with a view to diversifying textures.

[0045] - By “robust” composition we mean in particular a composition which meets the less than the criteria below (as defined and measured according to the protocols specified below in the examples):

[0046] 'be stable over a wide pH range, to ensure the antimicrobial protection of the formula and the pH-dependent activity of certain active ingredients;

[0047] “be stable at high temperature at 45°C, and at 75°C to allow the introduction of hot blocks of ingredients, in particular based on melted wax, and thus guarantee the possibility of obtaining a texture of balm or butter consistency;

[0048] 'be insensitive to electrolytes, in particular resistant to the presence of NaCl type salts, to allow the introduction of mineral water, such as Vichy water or La Roche Posay water without risk of instability linked to the presence of mineral salts, or guarantee stability following the addition of certain active ingredients charged with ions;

[0049] 'be stable upon dilution with or without the presence of fatty substances, and in particular:

[0050] “to be able to emulsify at room temperature (25°C) fatty substances, such as vegetable oils, with a low-energy tool such as Speedmixer®;

[0051] “be stable when diluted in water and thus guarantee the possibility of obtaining a texture of mist / serum / lotion consistency.

[0052] - By "stable composition" is meant, within the meaning of the invention, a composition which, after 2 months of storage at 4°C, 25°C and 45°C, does not show any macroscopic change in color, odor, or viscosity, but on the contrary remains homogeneous and regular, and which does not dephase (no separation of the aqueous phase and the oily phase) nor release oil.

[0053] - by “very stable” composition, we mean a composition which, after centrifugation (3700 rpm Ih), shows no change in texture (no drop in viscosity or consistency) at T0 (after manufacturing), nor after 2 months in an oven at 45°C (storage and accelerated aging).

[0054] By "predominantly" or "in a majority capacity", it is meant, within the meaning of the present invention, that the compound is in the majority among the compounds of the same type in the composition, that is to say that it is the one which represents the greatest quantity by mass among the compounds of the same type. Preferably, the mass of this compound represents at least 50% of the total mass of the compounds of the same type in the composition. For example, in a system comprising a single fatty alcohol, this is in the majority within the meaning of the present invention; and in a system comprising two fatty alcohols, the majority fatty alcohol represents at least half, preferably more than half, of the total mass of the fatty alcohols, in other words the mass of this fatty alcohol represents at least 50% of the total mass of the two fatty alcohols.In the same way, a so-called majority diol is the one representing the greatest mass among all the diols in the composition, in particular whatever the type of diol, y-. including those of type Al or A2 as defined according to the invention. On the other hand, the majority Al diol is the one representing the greatest mass among all the Al diols in the composition. If the composition contains only 2 Al diols of equal content in the composition, they are both at 50% by weight, so one or the other can be considered as the majority Al diol in the composition of the invention. Composition

[0055] The composition according to the invention is a formulating base (also called formulation engine block, hereinafter “BM”), or any final composition comprising it.

[0056] According to a first aspect, the present invention therefore relates to a composition as defined above, in particular a formulating base, comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable medium:

[0057] A) at least two diols comprising at least:

[0058] - a first major diol chosen from those in list Al consisting of: propylene glycol, 1,3-propanediol or di-propylene glycol,

[0059] - a second diol different from the first and chosen from those of said list Al and / or those in list A2 consisting of diols containing 4 to 8 carbon atoms.

[0060] B) at least two fatty alcohols containing from 16 to 22 carbon atoms;

[0061] C) at least two alkylpolyglucosides in which the alkyl chain comprises 16 with 22 carbon atoms;

[0062] and

[0063] D) water.

[0064] The applicant has found that this composition according to the invention, based on water, a mixture of specific fatty substances (fatty alcohol and alkylpolyglucosides) and a mixture of particular diols, according to preferred ratios, provides a formulating base (or formulation engine block "BM") which is robust and therefore customizable using a low-energy process at room temperature. It forms a common base for the composition of different cosmetic products with very varied textures.

[0065] Furthermore, the composition according to the invention has in itself a stable cream texture without requiring the addition of gelling agent, which contributes to its minimalist side and its permissiveness to vary the texture, in particular by simple dilution in water without fear of destabilization. Fatty alcohols

[0066] The composition of the present invention comprises at least two fatty alcohols containing from 16 to 22 carbon atoms.

[0067] A fatty alcohol can be linear or branched, saturated or unsaturated.

[0068] By “fatty alcohol” within the meaning of the invention, we mean any alcohol comprising: a saturated and linear hydrocarbon chain, in particular consisting of an alkyl chain, linear, said chain comprising at least 10 carbon atoms, and a hydroxyl function.

[0069] By “hydrocarbon chain” is meant an organic group consisting mainly of hydrogen atoms and carbon atoms.

[0070] A fatty alcohol that can be used according to the invention is formed from a fatty chain comprising from 16 to 22 carbon atoms.

[0071] By "fatty alcohol containing from 16 to 22 carbon atoms" is meant any alcohol comprising a saturated and linear hydrocarbon chain, in particular consisting of a linear alkyl chain, said chain comprising from 16 to 22 carbon atoms, and a hydroxyl function.

[0072] Preferably, the fatty chain of said fatty alcohols is chosen from the following units: cetyl, stearyl, cetearyl, behenyl, arachidyl, palmityl, and mixtures thereof, more preferably from the following units: cetyl, stearyl, cetearyl, behenyl, and arachidyl.

[0073] The fatty alcohols particularly suitable for the invention may be chosen from cetyl alcohol sold under the name LANETTE 16 by the company COGNIS, or stearyl alcohol sold under the name LANETTE 18 by the company COGNIS, or the commercial product KALCOL 80-98® from KAO, or cetearyl alcohol sold under the name LANETTE O OR by the company COGNIS; mention may also be made of arachidyl alcohol such as the commercial products HAINOL 20SS® from the company KOKYU ALCOHOL KOGYO CO. LTD and NACOL 20-95® from the company SASOL GERMANY GMBH (HAMBURG); behenyl alcohol such as the commercial products NACOL 22-97® and NACOL 22-98® from the company SASOL GERMANY GMBH (HAMBURG); and mixtures thereof.

[0074] The composition according to the invention comprises a mixture of fatty alcohols comprising from 16 to 22 carbon atoms.

[0075] Advantageously, the total content of fatty alcohols in the composition according to the invention is in the range of 1 to 20%, preferably 1.5 to 15%, preferably 2 to 12%, preferably 3 to 10% by weight of the total weight of the composition representing 100%.

[0076] According to the present invention, said fatty alcohols comprise at least one major fatty alcohol present in a weight content greater than or equal to that of each of the other fatty alcohols present in the composition, preferably said major fatty alcohol representing more than 50% by weight of the total weight of fatty alcohols present in the composition, the total weight of fatty alcohols representing 100%.

[0077] For the purposes of the present invention, cetearyl alcohol (C16-C18) has the INCI name CETEARYL ALCOHOL, and although it comprises a mixture of cetyl alcohol (C16) and stearyl alcohol (C18), it counts as a single fatty alcohol (cetearyl alcohol) in the composition of the present invention. Cetearyl alcohol is therefore associated with at least one other fatty alcohol, preferably associated with at least two other fatty alcohols, containing from 16 to 22 carbon atoms in the composition of the present invention, such as for example arachidyl alcohol (C20) and / or behenyl alcohol (C22).

[0078] Preferably said at least two fatty alcohols containing from 16 to 22 carbon atoms comprise cetearyl alcohol, arachidyl alcohol and behenyl alcohol.

[0079] Advantageously, the respective weight content of each of said fatty alcohols of lower average chain length is greater than or equal to the respective weight content of each of said fatty alcohols of comparatively higher average chain length. In other words, among all said fatty alcohols, the weight content of each fatty alcohol of radical R' in the composition is greater (compared to the other fatty alcohols) the smaller the chain length of its Alkyl radical R'.

[0080] By way of example, the fatty alcohol contents in the composition of the invention are such that the content of cetearyl alcohol (C16-C18 mixture) > the content of arachidyl alcohol (C20) > the content of behenyl alcohol (C22). In the above-mentioned example, it is therefore cetearyl alcohol which is the majority fatty alcohol within the meaning of the present invention.

[0081] Preferably, said majority fatty alcohol is chosen from: cetyl alcohol, stearyl alcohol, behenyl alcohol, arachidyl alcohol, or cetearyl alcohol, preferably chosen from cetearyl alcohol.

[0082] Advantageously, said majority fatty alcohol is present in the composition of the invention in a content comprised in the range of 1 to 10% by weight, preferably 2 to 8% by weight, preferably 2 to 6% by weight, preferably 3 to 5% by weight, on the total weight of the composition representing 100%. Alkyl polyglucosides

[0083] The alkyl polyglucosides (hereinafter abbreviated as “APG”), optionally polyalkoxylated, can be chosen from a group comprising the compounds of the following general formula: R'O-(G)a,

[0084] in which R1 denotes a linear or branched alkyl and / or alkenyl radical, and / or an alkylphenyl radical, comprising from 16 to 22 carbon atoms, the group G a sugar comprising from 5 to 6 carbon atoms and a is a number ranging from 1 to 10, and mixtures thereof.

[0085] The alkyl polyglucoside may be chosen in particular from the group comprising: ethers or mixtures of ethers of C16-C22 fatty alcohols and glucose, maltose, sucrose, xylose or fructose and ethers or mixtures of ethers of fatty alcohols in C16-C22 and methyl glucose. The fatty unit of the ethers can be chosen in particular from cetyl, behenyl, arachidyl, stearyl, palmityl, myristyl, hexadecanoyl, octyldodecyl units and their mixtures such as cetearyl.

[0086] According to a preferred embodiment, said at least two alkylpolyglucosides are chosen from cetearyl glucoside, arachidyl glucoside, cocoyl polyglucoside, octyldodecyl xyloside, and mixtures thereof, preferably cetearyl glucoside and arachidyl glucoside.

[0087] As examples of additional alkyl polyglucosides possibly present in the composition in addition to those defined above according to the present invention, mention may also be made of decyl glucoside and lauryl glucoside marketed for example by the company Henkel under the respective names “PLANTAREN 2000” and “PLANTAREN 1200”.

[0088] The APGs that can be used in the composition of the present invention are advantageously chosen from: cetearyl glucoside, optionally mixed with cetostearyl alcohol (cetearyl alcohol), sold for example under the name "MONTANOV 68" by the company Seppic, under the name "TEGO Care CG90" by the company Evonik Goldschmidt and under the name "EMULGADE KE 3302" by the company Henkel, as well as arachidyl glucoside, for example in the form of the mixture of arachidic and behenic alcohols and arachidyl glucoside sold under the name "MONTANOV 202" by the company Seppic, the mixture of cocoyl polyglucoside and cetyl and stearyl alcohols (35 / 65) sold under the name "MONTANOV 82" by the company Seppic, octyldodecyl xyloside sold under the names “FLUIDANOV 20X” or “EASYNOV” by the company Seppic.

[0089] According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the alkyl polyglucoside(s) are chosen from “MONTANOV 68” or “MONTANOV 202” by the company Seppic.

[0090] Preferably, the respective weight content of each of said alkylpolyglucosides of lower average alkyl chain length is greater than or equal to the respective weight content of each of said alkylpolyglucosides of comparatively higher average alkyl chain length. In other words, and preferably in a BM composition according to the invention, an APG of longer alkyl chain is present in a lower content than that of an APG of comparatively shorter alkyl chain. Or, the weight content of each APG in the composition is lower the longer the chain length of the Alkyl radical of said APG. Thus, between two APGs, the one of the two which has the longer alkyl chain is preferably present in a content lower than or equal to that of the two APGs which has the shorter chain.

[0091] According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, said at least 2 alkylpolyglucosides include: (C16-C18 alkyl) polyglucosides, such as cetearyl glucoside; and (C20-C22 alkyl) polyglucosides, such as arachidyl polyglucoside; preferably in a weight ratio of (C16-C18 alkyl) polyglucoside(s) to (C20-C22 alkyl) polyglucoside(s) greater than 1; preferably include, or are, arachidyl glucoside and cetearyl glucoside; preferably according to a weight ratio of cetearylglucoside to arachidyl glucoside greater than 1.

[0101] - preferably, the weight content of each fatty alcohol in the composition is the greater the shorter the chain length of the radical R'.

[0102] Preferably, in the composition of the present invention, the weight ratio of the total fatty alcohol content to the total APG content is greater than or equal to 1, preferably greater than 1.

[0170] Materials and methods used in the present description of the invention:

[0171] - Planetary motion mixer: Speed ​​Mixer TM DAC400FVZ. The speed of the mixer is set (in rpm) and the mixing time (in minutes) as indicated in the test examples below.

[0172] - The viscosity of the composition is measured at room temperature (25°C) using of a RHEOMAT RM 200 viscometer equipped with a spindle No. 3 or 4 (M3, M4), the measurement being carried out after 10 minutes of rotation of the spindle within the product (time at the end of which a stabilization of the viscosity and the rotation speed of the spindle is observed), at a shear of 200 s-1. The results are given in UD (Deflection Unit), then using an Abaque transcribed in Poise then in Pa.s-1. In the context of the present invention, the cone / plane or plane / plane geometry was used.

[0173] - The consistency and flow behavior of low-temperature samples Deformations were obtained by rheological measurements using a Thermo Fisher Scientific Haake Mars III rheometer (Massachusetts, USA) using a cone / plate geometry. Samples were taken with a spatula (approximately 1 ml) from the center of the surface with the minimum possible shear. The HAAKE RheoWin software from Thermo Fisher Scientific was used. The program begins by lowering the disk to 1 mm above the plate. Then, the oscillating disk sweeps the sample with a deformation of 0.05 Pa to 500 Pa at a frequency of 1 Hz. The temperature is kept constant at 20±1°C. The titanium disc used has a conical shape and has been sandblasted, its dimensions are 60.005 mm in diameter, 0.053 mm truncation and a cone angle of 1.008°, its geometric factors are 1.768x104 Pa / Nm for factor A and 56.84 (l / s) / (rad / s) for factor M.The complex shear modulus, G* (Pa), was obtained as a function of the deformation shear stress, r (Pa). The rheological behavior of the formulas was analyzed. Measurements of the storage moduli G', loss or dissipation moduli G' ' were used to determine the complex modulus G* as well as the phase shift ô between stress and strain. These data are analyzed as a function of the shear stress. The value of the complex modulus G* at the plateau preceding the break in the curve gives an idea of ​​the consistency of the product at rest. Examples

[0187] The BM based on Cetearyl alcohol made it possible to effectively stabilize emulsified oil drops at room temperature using a low-energy mixing tool (Speedmixer®). However, depending on the nature of the oils, solubilization of the fatty chains may occur during storage for 2 months at 45°C, fluidizing the system (creaming). The combination of Cetearyl Alcohol with fatty alcohols with longer fatty chains (Behenyl Alcohol and Arachidyl Alcohol) made it possible to significantly improve this stability at a temperature of 45°C.

[0188] The table above indicates that the best results in the emulsification and stability tests of cold-formed emulsions (25°C) were obtained for the following combination of ingredients in the following proportions:

[0189] - mixture of the following fatty substances, with weight contents of each ingredient (INCI) on the total weight of the composition meeting the following criteria:

[0190] Cetearyl alcohol content > Arachidyl alcohol content > Behenyl alcohol content

[0191] Similarly, better results are observed if the following APGs are used and the contents of these APGs meet the following criteria in the composition:

[0192] Cetearyl glucoside content > Arachidyl glucoside content

[0193] - the propylene glycol and / or propanediol content, when it is greater than the Cetearyl alcohol content, helps stabilize the emulsion, particularly at 45°C.

[0194] The following tables also confirm this criterion of interest:

[0195] Propylene glycol content or propanediol content > content of each fatty alcohol.

[0196] Compositions Cpl2 and Cpl5 do not meet this last criterion, do not pass the 2m 45°C stability tests and the cold emulsification test respectively.

[0197] Advantageously, these preferred criteria are valid for the BM composition as well as for the final composition which incorporates the BM.

[0198] According to Cpl4, when these preferred characteristics of order of content between fatty alcohols are not respected, the formula is not totally robust: NOK for the salification test by addition of electrolytes (1% NaCl) and NOK for the emulsification tests of oils.

[0199] Preferably, according to the invention, the respective weight content of each of said fatty alcohols of lower average chain length is therefore: greater than or equal to the respective weight content of each of said fatty alcohols of higher average chain length. The contents are indicated by weight relative to the total weight of the composition.

[0200] Preferably, according to the invention, the respective weight content of each of said alkylpolyglucosides of average lower alkyl chain length: is greater than or equal to the respective weight content of each of said alkylpolyglucosides of average higher alkyl chain length.

[0201] For Cpl2, the emulsification of oils by BM after 2m 45°C is not stable. This shows the advantage of having a weight content of diol Al chosen from propylene glycol, 1,3-propanediol or di-propylene glycol preferably greater than or equal to the weight content of the majority fatty alcohol.

[0202] In the case of Cpl 1 and Cpl5 respectively where the composition contains only one alkylpolyglucoside, the stability test 2m 45°C, shows that the formula is not stable, NOK; and the salification test (1% NaCl), shows that the formula is not stable, NOK.

[0203] Dilution test and obtaining the most fluid to the thickest textures

[0204] The BM of Exl3 was diluted with water at room temperature (25°C) to obtain a liquid consistency. Four different samples were prepared in the Speedmixer® with respectively 50%, 40%, 30%, 20% by weight of BM in water (qsplOO). Stirring was done in the Speed ​​Mixer (DAC 400) for 2 min at 2750 rpm.

[0205] The samples showed very different textures. All were stable even after centrifugation, and visual and microscopic observations were similar to those of the original BM sample (homogeneous appearance).

[0206] Rheometer analysis shows that the consistencies (G*: the consistency of the product at rest) are in different ranges, from 100 Pa (most fluid consistency for the most diluted BM) to 1300 Pa (thickest consistency for the least diluted BM in water). Obtaining butter by emulsifying wax

[0207] The BM of Exl3 was used to emulsify 5% paraffin wax.

[0208] The product thus obtained has a buttery consistency, and has an application particularly gentle on the skin.

[0209] The rheology 24 hours after manufacture indicates a consistency G*=1725 Pa.

[0210] Visual and microscopic observations show a dispersion similar to that of BM at room temperature.

[0211] The engine block composition according to the invention is robust, since it allows both to effectively stabilize oil emulsions, without requiring an additional stabilizer or gelling agent, and to produce several stable textures, from liquid consistency to butter consistency.

[0213] The best results of BM emulsification tests are obtained for BM compositions based on two diols, in particular chosen from propylene glycol, 1,3-propanediol and di-propylene glycol, corresponding to Examples 19, 20 and 27 according to the invention. The compositions resulting from the cold emulsification, by BM, of oils in the Speedmixer®, are particularly stable for these glycols. The stability in the NaCl Test measured by ultracentrifugation, is better for Propylene glycol or Dipropylene Glycol in association with 1,3-propanediol. With pentylene glycol, 1,2-hexane diol, or caprylyl glycol (alone) the composition emulsified at cold is comparatively less stable, especially in the NaCl Test, because the texture becomes more fluid as soon as NaCl is added.

[0214] Preferably, propanediol is therefore used between 3 and 8%, combined with propylene glycol between 3 and 10% in the BM engine block composition of the invention.

[0215] Hexanediol (7%) or Caprylyl glycol (7%), used alone, depending on these contents, do not promote the emulsification of oils at room temperature in the Speedmixer® and the emulsions thus obtained (Cp25, Cp26) are not stable in the various tests, in particular in the extreme tests (ultracentrifugation 30 mins 10000 rpm 40°C with 10% jojoba oil + 1% NaCl).

[0216] Nevertheless, when used in combination with at least one of the above preferred diols, and used in amounts of less than 4%, preferably in the range of 1 to 3%, preferably 2 to 3%, by weight of the total weight of the BM composition, the diol(s) containing 4 to 8 carbon atoms reduce soaping, thus improving the intrinsic sensoriality of the BM, without creating instability problems during the emulsification of said BM, even in the Ultracentrifugation test, as shown in the following table, for several hexanediol contents.

[0218] When it enters into the composition of the BM, said second diol different from the first diol, and containing from 4 to 8 atoms, preferably represents a content by weight of less than 4%, preferably in the range of 1 to 3%, preferably of 2 to 3% by weight on the total weight of the BM composition.

[0219] For this reason, in the BM composition according to the invention, and to guarantee the stability of the final emulsions incorporating it, the weight content of each fatty alcohol is preferably greater than the weight content of each of said optional A2 diols containing from 4 to 8 carbon atoms (other than dipropylene glycol).

[0220] Ultimately, the present invention succeeds in the challenge of providing a versatile and versatile formulating base composition, that is to say, making it possible to "design" any type of cosmetic texture, and to respond precisely to the requirements of each person, by proposing a cosmetic product that is best suited to the desired cosmetic experience.
