Description

Title of the invention: ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING BIS- ETHYLHEXYLOXYPHENOL METHOXYPHENYL TRIAZINE FIELD OF INVENTION

[0001] This disclosure relates to environmentally friendly compositions 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 an environmentally friendly vector, as well as processes for manufacturing and using such compositions. DISCUSSION OF THE CONTEXT

[0002] Many cosmetic compositions contain ingredients of animal origin or natural beeswax to achieve a desired texture or properties. Due to growing concerns about how these ingredients are obtained, many consumers prefer to avoid cosmetics containing such ingredients, opting instead for products that do not rely on them.

[0003] Similarly, many customers prefer to avoid cosmetics containing non-biodegradable ingredients such as microplastics because of the potential environmental effects that such ingredients may have.

[0004] However, without these ingredients, it may be difficult to obtain a desired texture for cosmetic compositions containing UV filters, or it may be difficult to obtain other desirable properties such as, for example, improved application properties in such compositions, particularly in compositions containing bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine.

[0005] Radiation with wavelengths between 290 nm and 400 nm allows the human epidermis to tan, while radiation with wavelengths between 290 and 320 nm, called UVB rays, hinders the development of a natural tan. Exposure is also likely to cause a detrimental alteration of the biomechanical properties of the epidermis, resulting in the appearance of wrinkles leading to premature skin aging (i.e., photoaging).

[0006] UVA rays with a wavelength 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 cause this. damaging collagen and elastin fibers, resulting in a change in the skin's microrelief, the appearance of wrinkles and uneven pigmentation (spots, lack of uniformity of complexion).

[0007] Numerous studies show the need for effective protection against UVA and UVB to prevent sunburn, photoaging, and the like.

[0008] 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 filtration efficiency.

[0009] However, high levels of UV filters do not in themselves lend themselves to the easy development of stable environmentally friendly compositions having a pleasant texture.

[0010] There remains a need in art for improved environmentally friendly compositions which have organic UV filters and have pleasant application properties (e.g. a non-greasy feel) and UV protection properties.

[0011] Therefore, one aspect of this disclosure relates to environmentally friendly compositions which have organic UV filters and pleasant application properties (e.g., a non-greasy feel) and UV protection properties. Summary of the invention

[0012] This disclosure relates to environmentally friendly compositions comprising bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine (BEMT or bemo-trizinol) and an environmentally friendly carrier. Preferably, the compositions contain minimal amounts of ingredients of animal origin and / or microplastics, or are free of such ingredients.

[0013] 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.

[0014] This disclosure also relates to processes for manufacturing environmentally friendly compositions comprising the combination of bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine and ingredient(s) that form an environmentally friendly carrier during the formation of the compositions. Preferably, the compositions contain minimal amounts of ingredients of animal origin and / or microplastics, or are free of such ingredients.

[0015] It must be understood that both the preceding general description and the des The detailed description that follows is only exemplary and explanatory and does not limit disclosure. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0016] In the following description and the claims annexed thereto, it shall be understood that the terms used have their ordinary and usual meanings in the art, unless otherwise specified.

[0017] “Approximately” as used here means to within 10% of the number indicated (for example "approximately 10%" means from 9% to 11% and "approximately 2%" means from 1.8% to 2.2%.

[0018] “A” or “an” as used here means “at least one”

[0019] “At least one” means one or more and thus includes components in individual products as well as mixtures / combinations.

[0020] As used herein, all proposed ranges are intended to include each specific point and range within the given ranges, as well as combinations of intermediate sub-ranges. Thus, a range from 1 to 5 specifically includes the integers within the range 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, as well as sub-ranges such as 2 to 5, 3 to 5, 2 to 3, 2 to 4, 1 to 4, etc., and all fractional numbers within the range such as 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, etc., and sub-ranges including such fractional numbers, such as 1.5 to 3.8, 2 to 4.3, 4.2 to 4.9, etc.

[0021] “Film-forming”, “film-forming polymer” or “film-forming agent” as used herein means a polymer or resin that is capable of leaving a film on the substrate to which it is applied, for example, after a solvent accompanying the film-forming agent has evaporated, been absorbed into the substrate and / or dissipated on it.

[0023] “Volatile”, as used here, means having a flash point less than about 115 °C.

[0024] “Non-volatile”, as used here, means having a flash point greater than approximately 115 °C.

[0025] “Polymer” as used herein means a compound that is made up of at least two monomers.

[0026] “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, "microplastic-free" means that an effective quantity (i.e., greater than trace amounts) of microplastic(s) is omitted from the composition (i.e., about 0% by weight), "substantially free of microplastics" means that one or more microplastics are present in quantities not exceeding 0.1% by weight, and "microplastic-free" means that one or more microplastics 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 identified ingredient. 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] “UV filters” as used herein means the active protective agents sunscreens approved by a government regulatory agency such as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the United States or the European Commission in Europe and include organic UV filters such as avobenzone, octocrylene, benzophenones, benzotriazoles and merocyanines, as well as mineral UV filters such as iron oxide, zinc oxide (ZnO) and titanium dioxide (TiO2).

[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] "Keratinous materials" means nails (fingernails and / or toenails), skin such as that of the body, face and around the eyes, scalp, keratinous fibers such as eyelashes, eyebrows and hair, and mucous membranes such as lips.

[0030] “Physiologically acceptable” means compatible with keratinous materials and having a pleasant color, smell and feel, and which does not cause unacceptable discomfort (tingling or pulling) likely to discourage a consumer from using the composition.

[0031] “Environmentally friendly vector” means the ingredients of a com Cosmetic ingredients other than active agents, colorants, and / or UV filters that are "environmentally friendly." "Environmentally friendly" means that the ingredients in the carrier are not resistant to biodegradation and / or are renewable. Preferably, "environmentally friendly" ingredients are not derived from animals. "Environmentally friendly carrier" means that the composition contains less than 3%, less than 2%, and less than 1% of non-environmentally friendly ingredients, and also that it is "free from non-environmentally friendly ingredients," "substantially free from non-environmentally friendly ingredients," and "devoid of non-environmentally friendly ingredients," as defined above.

[0032] “UV protection efficiency” or “filtration efficiency” in the context of the this disclosure is evaluated from one or more elements among FPS, FPUVA, critical wavelength and UVA-I / UV ratio.

[0033] 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).

[0034] 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.

[0035] 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 the 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 US 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.

[0036] “UVA protection factor” refers to a characteristic index assessing the UVA protection provided by a composition. For example, the UVA protection factor (UPPF) 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. It can also be determined according to FDA protocols, as described again in 21 CFR Part 352 Subpart D § 352.72 as mentioned above in relation to SPF.

[0037] UVA protection can also be assessed in vitro using the Labsphere® spectrophotometer under conditions such as those mentioned above in relation to the SPF. ISO 24443:2021 describes such an in vitro procedure.

[0038] 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 assay 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 (340-400 nm) and the protection against total UV radiation (UVB and UVA at 290-400 nm) calculated from the absorbance curve. This UVA1 / UV ratio would represent the product's score in the in vitro test."

[0039] According to this disclosure, the compositions in this disclosure preferably have one or more of the following properties:

[0040] The compositions have a critical wavelength as determined by FDA critical wavelength procedures of at least 370 nm;

[0041] The compositions have an FPS value of at least 15, preferably at least 30, preferably at least 50 and preferably at least 70;

[0042] The compositions have an FPUVA / FPS ratio of at least 1 / 3, and preferably of at least 2 / 5 and / or

[0043] The compositions have a UVA1 / UV ratio of 0.7 or more, preferably 0.75 or more, and preferably 0.8 or more.

[0044] The "makeup result" as used herein refers to the visual impact of a composition when applied to a keratinous material such as skin. Makeup result may relate to the apparent color of the product after application to keratinous material or an optical effect such as shine, blurring of fine lines and imperfections, or a concealing effect on pores or skin defects after application of the product to keratinous material.

[0045] "Longevity," as used here, refers to compositions where the color 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 particular stress event such as immersion in water or rubbing. "Longevity" can be assessed by evaluating the 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 a prolonged period. For example, the color of a composition can be evaluated immediately after application to a keratinous material such as skin, 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 processes on non-keratinous substrates such as polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), in which properties such as color, transparency, or in vitro FPS can be evaluated before and after a period or stress factor such as immersion in water, incubation at high temperatures, or the application of an abrasive technique.

[0046] “Natural” as in the expression “natural compound” means any compound derived directly from a natural substance such as a plant without having undergone chemical modification.

[0047] “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.

[0048] “Synthetic compound” means any compound that is neither a natural compound nor a composed of natural origin.

[0049] “Room temperature” means approximately 20 to 25 °C.

[0050] “Atmospheric pressure” means approximately 760 mmHg, i.e. approximately 105 pascals.

[0051] “UV filter” and “sunscreen agent” are used interchangeably in the present request.

[0052] The expressions "effectiveness against UV", "UV protection" and "UV effectiveness" are used interchangeably in this application.

[0053] The compositions and processes of this disclosure may include, consist of, or essentially consist 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 one or more additional organic UV filters identified herein.

[0054] For the purposes of this disclosure, the "fundamental novel property" associated with the compositions, components and processes that "consist essentially of" identified ingredients or actions is "environmental friendliness".

[0055] The compositions of this disclosure may be in any form suitable for use as a personal care composition, such as a stick, paste, cream, anhydrous composition, emulsion (oil-in-water, water-in-oil, multiple emulsion such as oil-in-water-in-oil), nanoemulsion, gel, liquid, solid, etc. These compositions may be used for any personal care purpose in cosmetic and / or dermatological products such as, for example, sunscreen, foundation, lip balms, lipsticks, concealers, mascaras, leave-in hair products, eyeshadows, powders, etc.

[0056] Reference is made herein to trade names of materials including, but not limited to, materials such as polymers and optional components. Materials are not intended to be limited by the materials described and referenced herein by a particular trade name. Equivalent materials (for example, those obtained from a different source under a different name or catalogue (reference) number) to those referenced by a trade name may be substituted for and used in the processes described and claimed herein.

[0057] Unless otherwise stated, all percentages and ratios are calculated by weight. Unless otherwise stated, all percentages are calculated on the basis of the total weight of a composition. All component or composition levels refer to the active level of that component or composition and are understood to exclude impurities, for example, residual solvents or by-products, which may be present in commercially available sources.

[0058] All US patents or patent applications disclosed herein are expressly incorporated by reference in their entirety. Composition
