Description

Title of Invention: Mineral and Organic Hybrid Thick Moisturizing Daily Sunscreen FIELD OF DISCLOSURE

[0001] The present disclosure relates to organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen compositions and methods of using the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen compositions to protect keratinous substrates such as skin and hair from UV rays. CONTEXT

[0002] The negative effects of exposure to ultraviolet (“UV”) rays are well known. Prolonged exposure to sunlight causes damage such as sunburn on the skin and dries out the hair, making it brittle. When the skin is exposed to UV rays having a wavelength of about 290 nm to about 400 nm, long-term damage can lead to serious conditions such as skin cancer.

[0003] UV rays also contribute to aging by causing the formation of free radicals in the skin. Free radicals include, for example, singlet oxygen, hydroxyl radical, superoxide anion, nitric oxide, and hydrogen radicals. Free radicals attack DNA, membrane lipids and proteins, generating carbon radicals. These in turn react with oxygen to produce a peroxyl radical that can attack adjacent fatty acids to generate new carbon radicals. This cascade leads to a chain reaction producing lipid peroxidation products. Damage to the cell membrane leads to a loss of cellular permeability, an increase in intercellular ion concentration, and a decreased ability to excrete or detoxify waste. The end result is a loss of skin elasticity and the appearance of wrinkles.This process is commonly referred to as photoaging.

[0004] Sunscreens can be used to provide protection against UV damage and delay the signs of photoaging. The degree of UV protection provided by an organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition is directly related to the amount and type of UV filters it contains. The higher the amount of UV filters, the higher the degree of UV protection. Consumers prefer organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen compositions to include natural, non-irritating components that appear natural (invisible) once applied. It is known in the art that it is difficult to provide mineral and organic UV sunscreen products with a sun protection factor (IP) high that have a long shelf life, are able to retain the benefit of the IP and exhibit desirable aesthetics when applied by the user.

[0005] The inventors of the present disclosure have formulated a hybrid mineral and organic thick moisturizing daily sunscreen that exhibits a high SPF and critical wavelength, as well as high emulsion structural stability in the presence of large amounts of mineral and organic based UV filtering agents that also impart good aesthetics.

[0039] The present disclosure also relates to methods of protecting skin from UV rays comprising applying to the skin an effective amount of the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DISCLOSURE

[0040] When the following terms are used in this specification, they are used as defined below.

[0041] The term "active ingredient" as used herein refers to the percentage of a ingredient or raw material, refers to 100% of the activity of the ingredient or raw material, unless otherwise stated.

[0042] The term "aqueous phase" means water, water-soluble, water-miscible, and water-dispersible ingredients, and represents the sum total of all ingredients in the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition that are water-soluble or water-dispersible, and that are combined with water during the preparation of the exemplary emulsion compositions.

[0043] The term "oil phase" refers to oil, oil-soluble, oil-miscible, and oil-dispersible ingredients, and represents the sum total of all ingredients in the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition that are oil-soluble or oil-dispersible, and that are combined with oil during preparation of the exemplary emulsion compositions.

[0044] The term "critical wavelength" (Xc) refers to the wavelength at which the sunscreen allows 10% of the rays to penetrate. The FDA considers a sunscreen with a critical wavelength greater than 370 nm to provide excellent UVA protection.

[0045] “Cosmetically acceptable” means that the article in question is compatible with a keratinous substrate such as skin and hair. For example, a “cosmetically acceptable carrier” means a carrier compatible with a keratinous substrate such as skin and hair.

[0046] The term "homogeneous" means, with reference to the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition, that it has as a whole a substantially uniform visual appearance, i.e., that it visually exhibits no separation or accumulation of fluid.

[0047] The term "keratinous tissue" includes, but is not limited to, skin, hair, and nails.

[0048] The term "mineral UV filtering agent" is interchangeable with the terms "mineral UV blocker", "inorganic UV filtering agent", "inorganic UV blocker", "mineral UV filter" and "inorganic UV filter". Mineral UV filtering agents are compounds that do not include carbon atoms in their chemical structures and are capable of filtering, scattering or absorbing UV radiation between 280 and 400 nm.

[0049] The term "IP enhancer" refers to a material that increases the UV absorption of another material when the two materials are mixed in a composition by refracting the UV radiation, thereby increasing the effective path length of the UV radiation through the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition.

[0050] The term "emulsion structural stability" refers to the stability structural stability of the oil-in-water emulsion and means that the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition exhibits an initially good aesthetic appearance, including the absence of a granular texture, the absence of crystal formation, the maintenance of a coherent microscopic structure and does not demonstrate visually perceptible phase separation, appreciable liquid accumulation or droplet formation. In addition, the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition retains emulsion structural stability as described above and maintains consistent color, odor and viscosity during prolonged storage, including storage for up to 12 weeks, particularly after exposure to room temperature ranging from about 25°C to about 45°C.For example, an organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition is considered to demonstrate emulsion structure stability if the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition does not exhibit signs of phase separation and / or become inhomogeneous after up to 12 weeks at room temperature in the range of about 5°C to about 45°C inclusive.

[0051] The term "substantially free" or "essentially free" as used herein means that less than about 2% by weight of a specific material is added to a composition, based on the total weight of the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen compositions. However, the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen compositions may include less than about 1% by weight, less than about 0.5% by weight, less than about 0.1% by weight, less than about 0.01% by weight, or no amount of the specified material.

[0052] The term "sun protection factor" or "SPF" is a value expressed mathematically as the ratio of the irradiation time required to reach the erythemogenic threshold with the UV-blocking agent to the time required to reach the erythemogenic threshold without the UV-blocking agent. The SPF generally provides information about the skin's resistance to ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation from the sun. The SPF rating system was developed to guide consumers in the selection of sunscreens. The organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition according to the present publication may be formulated to achieve a variety of different SPFs. For example, the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition may have an in vivo SPF of at least 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, or 55 or higher (or within a range between any of these values).As demonstrated herein, in some embodiments, the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition has an SPF of at least 50 or greater, measured as defined by the FDA 2011 SPF Test Method and / or on a test subject.

[0053] The term "water-in-oil emulsion" or "W / O emulsion" includes an aqueous phase dispersed in an oily phase, where the oily phase is a phase continue.

[0054] The present disclosure relates to an organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition and embodiments thereof that provide a high degree of sun protection, emulsion structural stability as demonstrated by macroscopic and microscopic examination, and an optimized and unique sensory texture, the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition including in the oil phase at least one mineral UV filter and a mixture of organic UV filters, at least one oil-based solvent, at least one surfactant and in the aqueous phase, water, at least one water-miscible solvent, one or more skin actives, a water-soluble polymer, the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition also including at least one filler. The organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition is characterized by an oil phase solvent ratio of solvent:total oil phase of less than or equal to 5%.

[0055] The inventors surprisingly discovered that by decreasing the amount of solvent in the lipid phase compared to a reference comparative composition in which the solvent is ordinarily used to disperse the UV filter and by adding a filler, they were able to increase the PI of the formula and provide a composition with a thick creamy texture that is appreciated by consumers. Various comparative examples demonstrate that the same formula as that of the invention without the filler and / or with more solvents does not reach PI 30 and does not meet the critical wavelength requirements. Furthermore, compared to the reference comparative composition, the inventive composition demonstrates better stability based on macroscopic and microscopic examination of the emulsion under reliable variable conditions.

[0056] The inventors have discovered that in the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition with high UV filters (e.g., in the exemplary inventive composition having 22% organic filters and 8% mineral filter) with an amount of solvent in the lipid phase that is less than or equal to 5% by weight of the oil phase, and the inclusion of a filler, the SPF of the formula is maintained at SPF 30 or higher with a surprisingly thick, creamy texture that provides a rich skin finish appreciated by consumers. Comparative examples demonstrate that higher amounts of oil phase solvent (greater than 5% by weight of the oil phase) and removal of the filler, even with the same amount of UV filters, result in a significant reduction in SPF.

[0057] The organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition demonstrates emulsion structural stability wherein the sunscreen composition does not exhibit signs of phase separation, and / or does not become inhomogeneous after up to 12 weeks at room temperature in the range of about 5°C to about 45°C, and retains emulsion structural stability, with minimal color change at 60°C for at least one week. In the various embodiments, the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition demonstrates an SPF of about 30 and a LOC of at least 370 nm.

[0058] In exemplary embodiments, the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition is free or devoid of organic UV filters selected from menthyl anthranilate (meradimate), parabens, or a combination thereof. UV filters

In certain particular embodiments, the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition excludes, or is free of, or devoid of organic UV filters selected from oxybenzone and octinoxate organic UV filters.

[0062] In various embodiments of the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition, the zinc oxide UV filter is present in an amount of about 8% by weight of the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition, octinoxate (ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate) is present in an amount in the range of about 1% to about 8%, or about 5%, octisalate (ethylhexyl salicylate) is present in an amount in the range of about 1% to about 7%, or about 5%, octocrylene is present in an amount in the range of about 0.5% to about 5%, or about 2%, and homosalate is present in an amount in the range of about 5% to about 15%, or about 10%, each present by weight based on the total weight of the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition.Thus, an organic UV filter may be present in the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition, alone as described above, or in combination, by weight, based on the total weight of the organo-mineral hybrid sunscreen composition, of about 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24 to about 25% by weight, including increments and ranges between these values.

[0156] Note: ZnO amounts are final active, not RM amount EXAMPLE 3: IP and critical wavelength (LOC) tests with inventive and comparative compositions Each of the inventive and comparative compositions was evaluated for IP and LOC. As shown in Table 6 below, the compositions that passed the test demonstrated a stable IP > / = 30 and a LOC > / = 370 nm. [TABLE 6] IP and LOC Results IP Composition Critical Wavelength Pass / Fail (M INVENTIVE 31 370.1 nm Success COMPARATI VE 30 370.1 nm Success VAR1 ND 369.4 nm Failure VAR2 ND 368.3 nm Failure VAR3 16 370.1 nm Failure VAR4 16 370.6 nm Failure VAR5 28 (standard deviation too high to reach IP 30) 370.9 nm Failure VAR6 15 370.6 nm Failure VAR7 17 373.4 nm Failure VAR8 17 373.2 nm Failure VAR9 28 373.3 nm Failure VAR 10 21 373.2 nm Failure VAR11 25.42 (standard deviation too high to reach IP 30) ND Fail VAR 12 Without octocrylene 20 376.7 nm Fail VAR 13 Without octocrylene 21 375.4 nm Fail

[0157] It is evident that the inventive composition demonstrates an IP of 30 and a correct LOC while variations in the nature and amount of UV agents, the amount of oil phase solvent (dimethicone) and the inclusion or exclusion of filler (aluminum starch octenylsuccinate) affect one or both of the IP and LOC.

[0158] EXAMPLE 4: Structural stability of emulsion of inventive and comparative compositions

[0159] A panel of compositions was tested to verify IP and emulsion structural stability and processability. The results are shown in Table 7 below.

[0160] [TABLE 7] Stability results inventive composition / comparative composition Stability conditions tested INVENTIVE COMPARATIVE Stability at 1 week at 60°C (naked eye) Slight emulsion color change; no syneresis (oil buildup) Noticeable emulsion color change; visible surface syneresis Stability at 1 week at 60°C (microscopic) Homogeneous emulsion, tight edges Slight emulsion inhomogeneity, loose edges Samples at 8 weeks at 5°C, 25°C, 37°C and 45°C Microscopic emulsion has small particle size and is homogeneous Microscopic emulsion has large irregular particles, especially at 37°C and 45°C Samples at 12 weeks at 5°C, 25°C, 37°C and 45°C Slight color change; all samples are smooth / homogeneous Noticeable color change; the sample at 45°C demonstrated texture change and syneresis

[0161] According to the data collected for the inventive and comparative examples, it appears that the inventive composition demonstrates better short-term and long-term stability (12 weeks), the stability being characterized by minimal color change even at elevated temperature, no texture change, oil accumulation and good homogeneity of the emulsion as demonstrated with and without microscopic evaluation.

[0162] EXAMPLE 5: Linting Evaluations: Removal of Octocrylene Increases Linting (Negative Effect)

[0163] In a clinical study, a panel of sensory experts evaluated the effects of the inventive compositions on a group of 15 Caucasian women with normal to combination skin type. Each tester panelist washes her face using a commercial cleanser. The skin is allowed to balance for 10 minutes. Approximately 0.3 ml of moisturizer is dispensed and applied to one half of the face and the process is then repeated for the other side using the same dose, applying on each side one dot on the chin, upper lip, cheek, side of the nose, temple and two dots on the forehead. The moisturizer is blended until all the product is absorbed, then the skin is assessed for any visible fluffing during application and photographed; the timer is set for 2 minutes. After two minutes, a series of stroking movements Sweeping is applied to the skin surfaces with the back of the hand and the fluffiness is assessed and photographed.

[0164] Table 8 shows the number of panelists experiencing fluffing with each tested composition before and after fluffing evaluation.

[0165] [TABLE 8] Lint test results for inventive / comparative compositions and VAR 12 and 13 Tester panelists experimenting with fluffing COMPARATIV E INVENTIV E VAR 11 VAR 12 VAR 13 Before fluffing gesture 0 0 0 2 1 After fluffing gesture 6 7 6 11 11

[0166] As indicated above, the inventive composition is on par with the comparative composition with respect to fluffiness. In addition, the inventive composition has sensory attributes that are improved over the comparative composition with respect to maximum effect upon application, consistency and overall shape upon initial application, and as indicated in Table 7, the inventive composition demonstrates improved stability without compromising sensory benefits.
