Description

Title of the invention: COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING A UV-ABSORBING SYSTEM INCLUDING BIS- ETHYLHEXYLOXYPHENOL METHOXYPHENYL TRIAZINE AND ZINC OXIDE FIELD OF INVENTION

[0001] This disclosure relates to compositions comprising a UV-absorbing system comprising 2,4-bis-{[4-(2-ethylhexyloxy)-2-hydroxy]-phenyl}-6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3,5-triazine (INCI name: bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol me-thoxyphenyl triazine) and zinc oxide, as well as processes for manufacturing and using such compositions. DISCUSSION OF THE CONTEXT

[0002] Radiation with wavelengths between 290 nm and 400 nm allows the human epidermis to tan, while radiation with wavelengths between 290 and 320 nm, known as UVB rays, hinders the development of a natural tan. Exposure is also likely to cause detrimental changes in the biomechanical properties of the epidermis, resulting in the appearance of wrinkles and leading to premature skin aging (i.e., photoaging).

[0003] UVA rays with wavelengths between 320 and 400 nm penetrate the skin more deeply than UVB rays. UVA rays cause immediate and persistent tanning of the skin. Daily exposure to UVA rays, even for a short period under normal conditions, can damage collagen and elastin fibers, resulting in changes in the skin's microrelief, the appearance of wrinkles, and uneven pigmentation (spots, uneven skin tone).

[0004] Numerous studies show the need for effective protection against UVA and UVB to prevent sunburn, photoaging, and the like.

[0005] In order to obtain a high protection product, it is generally necessary to combine a large number of sunscreens and / or a large quantity of UV filters to achieve high levels of filtering efficiency.

[0006] However, high levels of UV filters do not lend themselves to the easy formulation of stable compositions with a pleasant texture. It is possible to obtain high UV protection by using one or more organic UV filters; however, organic UV filters are often very greasy and unpleasant to apply. on the skin, particularly when used at high levels in a sunscreen formulation required for high UV protection efficacy.

[0007] Mineral UV filters such as titanium dioxide or zinc oxide are alternative UV filters to organic UV filters that can provide more pleasant textures; however, when one or more mineral UV filters are used, the resulting sunscreen formulation is far too whitening (leaving "white streaks") when applied to the skin. When mineral UV filters are used at lower levels, it may be possible to produce sunscreen formulations with little or no whitening when applied to the skin; however, such formulations, containing low levels of mineral UV filters, are unable to produce the desired high levels of UV protection.

[0008] Finally, it can be difficult to combine an organic UV filter and a mineral UV filter in a single composition, especially in order to obtain a non-greasy, pleasant, non-whitening and high UV protection sunscreen formulation, particularly taking into account the need to balance the effectiveness of UVA and UVB protection.

[0009] There remains a need in the art of improved sunscreen compositions which have high UV protection and balanced UVA and UVB protection, which are not greasy, are pleasant to apply and do not leave white marks when applied to the skin.

[0010] Therefore, one aspect of the present disclosure is a composition that is non-greasy, non-whitening when applied to the skin, and provides high UV protection. Summary of the invention

[0011] This disclosure relates to compositions comprising a UV-absorbing system including zinc oxide and bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine (BEMT or bemotrizinol). Preferably, the compositions are non-greasy and / or non-bleaching (i.e., the compositions do not leave white residue) upon application.

[0012] This disclosure also relates to processes for the treatment, care, protection, enhancement of appearance and / or makeup of keratinous material, including the application of compositions of this disclosure to keratinous material in sufficient quantity to treat the keratinous material, care for it, enhance its appearance and / or make it up.

[0013] This disclosure also relates to processes for manufacturing non-greasy and / or non-bleaching compositions comprising an absorbent system UV comprising zinc oxide and bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine (BEMT) by combining bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine and zinc oxide in the compositions during the formation of the compositions to produce non-greasy and / or non-bleaching compositions.

[0025] “Exempt” or “substantially exempt” or “devoid of” as used herein This means that although it is preferable for no quantity of the specific component to be present in the composition, it is possible for very small quantities of it to be present in the compositions of the disclosure, provided that these quantities do not materially affect at least one, preferably most, of the advantageous properties of the compositions of the disclosure. Thus, for example, "oil-free" means that an effective quantity (i.e., greater than trace amounts) of oil(s) is omitted from the composition (i.e., about 0% by weight), "substantially oil-free" means that one or more oils are present in quantities not exceeding 0.1% by weight, and "oil-free" means that one or more oils are present in quantities not exceeding 0.25% by weight, based on the total weight of the composition.The same nomenclature applies to all other ingredients identified throughout the application and in this paragraph, such as, for example, specific UV filters and / or surfactants (the compositions in the disclosure that are "free of oxybenzone and / or octinoxate," "substantially free of oxybenzone and / or octinoxate," and "devoid of oxybenzone and / or octinoxate," as well as "free of surfactants," "substantially free of surfactants," and "devoid of surfactants" have meanings consistent with the discussion in this paragraph), even if they are not specifically mentioned for each ingredient identified in the application. The examples of the use of such language, such as those in this paragraph, are intended to be provided by way of example, not limitation.

[0027]

[27] “Whitening” or “white marks” as used herein refers to the appearance The visually white appearance of the keratinous substance after a composition has been applied to the keratinous material compared to the appearance of the keratinous material before the application of the composition. A composition is "non-bleaching" if it provides a minimal or no visually white appearance (preferably no visible white appearance). simply white) of the keratinous material during application. "Whitening" can also be assessed using instrumental, spectroscopic, or colorimetric methods that compare the difference in values ​​(often expressed as "delta"). measured for a keratinous material or alternative substrate at values ​​measured for a keratinous material or alternative substrate with a composition applied in a controlled manner. When bleaching is evaluated using said instrumental, spectroscopic, or colorimetric methods, a composition may be determined to be "non-bleaching" if the Difference in Values ​​is within a range corresponding to a minimal or non-existent visually white appearance (preferably no visually white appearance) of a keratinous material or alternative substrate upon application. Preferably, the bleaching evaluated by the Difference in Values ​​will be used comparatively between compositions using the same base; it may also be evaluated by visual means.

[0028] “Anhydrous” as used here means that the compositions of the disclosure contain less than 3% water, which means that compositions may also contain less than 2% water, and less than 1% water, as well as being "water-free", "substantially water-free" and "water-free" as defined above.

[0029] “A UV-absorbing system containing essentially zinc oxide and the bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine (BEMT) as used here means that the compositions in the disclosure contain less than 3% of UV filters other than zinc oxide and bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine (BEMT), including less than 3% of organic UV filters other than bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine (BEMT), which means that the compositions may also contain less than 2% of UV filters other than zinc oxide and bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine (BEMT), and less than 1% of UV filters other than zinc oxide and bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine (BEMT), as well as being “free of UV filters other than zinc oxide and bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine (BEMT)”,"essentially free of UV filters other than zinc oxide and bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine (BEMT)" and "devoid of UV filters other than zinc oxide and bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine (BEMT)" as defined above.

[0030] “Primary particle” as used in connection with the description of UV filters minerals here refers to inorganic or organic particles (structures) that can be held together by molecular or atomic bonding to form a mineral UV filter.

[0031] “Primary particle size” means the size of a non-aggregated primary particle in a mineral UV filter.

[0032] “Keratinous material” or “keratinous substance” means nails (nails of the fingers and / or toes), skin such as the body, face and eye area, scalp, keratinous fibers such as eyelashes, eyebrows and hair and mucous membranes such as lips.

[0033] The expression "physiologically acceptable" means compatible with keratinous materials and having a pleasant color, odor and feel, and which does not cause unacceptable discomfort (tingling or pulling) likely to discourage a consumer from using the composition.

[0034] “UV protection efficiency” or “filtering efficiency” in the context of this disclosure, is evaluated from one or more factors FPS, UVAPF, critical wavelength and UVA-l / UV ratio.

[0035] The "SPF" (Sun Protection Factor) measures the level of protection against erythema provided by a composition. The SPF value corresponds to the ratio between the minimum erythematous dose (MED) measured on skin covered with the composition and the MED measured on bare skin. The term "SPF" is known in the art of sunscreens and is defined, for example, in "A new substrate to measure sunscreen protection factors throughout the ultraviolet spectrum," J. Soc. Cosmet. Chem., 40, 127-133 (May / June 1989).

[0036] The evaluation of the SPF (Sun Protection Factor) can be carried out, for example, in vitro with a spectrophotometer from Labsphere (North Sutton, NH, USA). In such an evaluation, the plate is the material onto which the composition under test is applied. For such an evaluation, polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) plates can be used. An example of an acceptable protocol is currently undergoing ISO accreditation under the name ISO Committee Draft 23675.

[0037] The evaluation of the sun protection factor (SPF) can also be performed in vivo in accordance with ISO 24444:2019 "Cosmetics — Sun protection test methods — In vivo determination of sun protection factor (SPF)." It can also be determined in accordance with FDA protocols, as described in the document "Labeling and Effectiveness Testing; Sunscreen Drug Products for Over-the-Counter Human Use" published in the U.S. Federal Register on 07 / 05 / 2011 (https: / / www.federalregister.gov / d / 2011-14766); 21 CFR Part 352 Subpart D § 352.72, updated and revised by the 2011 publication in the Federal Register.

[0038] The "UVA protection factor" (UPF) refers to an index characterizing the UVA protection provided by a composition. For example, the UPF index can be measured in vivo according to the "PPD" (Persistent Pigment Darkening) method of the ISO-24442:2022 protocol, measuring the skin color observed 2 to 4 hours after UVA exposure. Similarly, it can be determined in accordance with FDA protocols, as described in document 21 CFR Part 352 Subpart D § 352.72 as discussed above in relation to the FPS.

[0039] The evaluation of UVA protection can also be measured in vitro with the Labsphere® spectrophotometer under conditions such as those mentioned above in connection with the SPF. ISO 24443:2021 describes such an in vitro procedure.

[0040] FDA broad-spectrum test procedures, particularly "critical wavelength" test procedures, are also available in 21 CFR Part 352 Subpart D § 352.72. In addition, broad-spectrum test procedures include the determination of the UVA1 / UV ratio as described in "Sunscreen Drug Products for Over-the-Counter-Human-Use" published in the Federal Register https: / / www.federalregister.gov / documents / 2019 / 02 / 26 / 2019-03019 / sunscreen-drug-products-for-over-the-counter-human-use. In the test described in the monograph, known as the Boots adaptation of the Diffey / Robson test method, a ratio is generated between the protection offered by the sunscreen product against UVA1 (340 to 400 nm) and the protection against total UV radiation (UVB and UVA at 290 to 400 nm) calculated from the absorbance curve. This UVA1 / UV ratio represents the product's score in the in vitro test.

[0041] According to this disclosure, the compositions in this disclosure preferably have one or more of the following properties:

[0042] The compositions have a critical wavelength as determined by FDA critical wavelength procedures of at least 370 nm;

[0043] The compositions have an FPS value of at least 15, preferably at least 30, preferably at least 50 and preferably at least 70;

[0044] The compositions have an FPUVA / FPS ratio of at least 1 / 3 and, preferably, of at least 2 / 5 and / or

[0045] The compositions have a UVA1 / UV ratio of 0.7 or more, preferably 0.75 or more and preferably 0.8 or more.

[0046] The "Makeup Result" as used herein refers to the visual impact of a composition when applied to a keratinous material such as the skin. The makeup result may refer to the apparent color of the product after application to a keratinous material or to an optical effect such as shine, the blurring of fine lines and imperfections, or a concealing effect on pores or blemishes after application of the product to the keratinous material.

[0047] “Long-lasting” as used herein refers to compositions where the colour or other apparent properties remain the same or substantially the same as at the time of application, as seen with the naked eye, after a prolonged period or After a specific stress event, such as immersion in water or friction, "longevity" can be assessed by evaluating longevity properties using any method known in the art for evaluating such properties. For example, longevity can be assessed by a test involving the application of a composition to a keratinous material such as skin and evaluating the color of the composition after an extended period. For instance, the color of a composition can be evaluated immediately after application to the keratinous material, and these characteristics can then be re-evaluated and compared after a certain time. Furthermore, these characteristics can be evaluated against other compositions, such as commercially available ones.Longevity can also be assessed using in vitro methods on non-keratinous substrates such as polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), in which properties such as colour, transparency or in vitro FPS can be evaluated before and after a period of time or a stress factor such as immersion in water, incubation at high temperatures, or the application of an abrasive technique.

[0048] “Natural” as in the expression “natural compound” means any derived compound directly from a natural substance such as a plant without having undergone chemical modification.

[0049] “Compound of natural origin” means any compound derived from a natural compound which has undergone one or more chemical modifications, for example by organic synthesis reaction, without the properties of the natural compound having been modified.

[0050] “Synthetic compound” means any compound that is neither a natural compound nor a composed of natural origin.

[0051] “Room temperature” means approximately 20-25 °C.

[0052] “Atmospheric pressure” means approximately 760 mmHg, i.e. approximately 105 pascals.

[0053] “UV filter” and “sunscreen agent” are used interchangeably in the present request.

[0054] “Effectiveness against UV”, “UV effectiveness” and “Effectiveness of UV protection” are used interchangeably in this application.

[0055] The compositions and processes of the present invention may include, consist of, or consist essentially of the essential elements and limitations of the disclosure described herein, as well as any additional or optional ingredients, components, or limitations described herein or otherwise useful. For example, the UV (ultraviolet) absorbing system of the compositions in the disclosure may "consist essentially of" bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine and zinc oxide.

[0056] For the purposes of this disclosure, the associated “fundamental novel property” to compositions, components and processes related to UV protection properties which "consist essentially of" identified ingredients or actions is "UVA protection indicated by the FPUVA / FPS and UVA1 / UV ratios"

[0057] For the purposes of this disclosure, the "fundamental novel property" associated with compositions, components and processes related to the properties of the composition upon application to keratinous material that "consist essentially of" identified ingredients or actions is "non-bleaching and / or non-greasy upon application".
