Description

Title of the invention: ANTI-AGING CATALYST COMPOSITION CONTAINING A HIGH-CONTENT COSMETIC ACID MIXTURE FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention relates, in general, to an anti-aging catalyst composition used as a catalyst prior to the application of anti-aging skincare compositions. The anti-aging catalyst enhances the anti-aging benefits of any anti-aging skincare routine, as demonstrated by the improvement in skin properties, particularly on the face, for example, by reducing wrinkles and fine lines on the forehead and providing a greater radiance than with the use of the anti-aging composition or treatment regimen alone. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] There are a variety of skin conditions that benefit from cosmetic products that can be applied to the skin to brighten the complexion, reduce one or more fine lines on the face, dullness, dryness, tightness, brown spots, and reduce the effects of acne or inflammatory lesions, improve desquamation and skin renewal, and activate the proliferation of new skin cells, among other possible benefits. Many skincare products offer active ingredients that treat one or more of these or other skin problems, but there are challenges in developing products that contain sufficiently high amounts of active ingredients to provide the desired benefits.

[0003] Therefore, there is a need in the technique for a composition that can increase the effectiveness of anti-aging skin care products, in particular a composition and treatment regimens that can modulate, improve, reduce or reverse the manifestation of dermatological signs of chronological aging, hormonal aging or photoaging of the skin.

[0004] The inventors have proposed an anti-aging catalyst composition that is pre-applied to the skin prior to an anti-aging skincare composition or regimen. Compared to the skincare composition or regimen alone, the anti-aging catalyst composition used prior to the application of an anti-aging skincare composition or regimen has demonstrated, statistically and clinically, according to the inventors, that it attenuates more visible fine lines and improves radiance immediately after the initial application, and that it confers a statistically more significant reduction in the number of wrinkles / fine lines. on the forehead at week 8. In some embodiments, the anti-aging catalyst composition may confer an improvement in tissue desquamation, epidermal development, cell cycle and cell division. BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0005] This summary is provided to present a selection of concepts in a simplified form, which are described in greater detail below in the detailed description of the invention. This summary is not intended to identify key features of the claimed subject matter or to be used as an aid in determining the scope of the claimed subject matter.

[0006] In various embodiments, the invention includes an anti-aging catalyst composition comprising: a mixture of cosmetically acceptable acids comprising at least one beta-hydroxy acid and at least three alpha-hydroxy acids, and one or more other cosmetically acceptable acids; and a cosmetically acceptable solvent comprising at least water, wherein the pH of the skincare composition is in a range of about pH 3.6 to about pH 3.9.

[0007] This disclosure describes examples of embodiments in accordance with the general inventive concepts and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way. Indeed, the invention as described in the patent application is broader than, and not limited by, the examples of embodiments presented herein, and the terms used herein have their full ordinary meaning. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0008] In some embodiments, the anti-aging catalyst composition is in the form of a serum that may exclude oils, surfactants, and emulsifiers. In some embodiments, the anti-aging catalyst composition is in the form of an emulsion and therefore comprises an oil phase that includes one or more oils and may include one or more surfactants or emulsifiers or combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the anti-aging catalyst composition is in the form of a gel.

[0009] In the context of the invention, a serum refers to a hydrophilic liquid composition formulated for topical application. A serum may optionally be free or substantially free of one or more of an oil, including an emollient, a wax, a surfactant, an emulsifier, a silicone oil, or a combination or all of the foregoing.

[0010] The expressions "Exclude", "Exempt" and "Essentially exempt" mean that, although it is preferable that no excluded material be present in the anti-aging catalyst composition, it is possible to have very small quantities of the excluded material in the anti-aging catalyst composition of the invention, provided that these quantities do not materially affect the advantageous properties of the composition of anti-aging catalyst. In particular, "essentially free" means that the excluded material may be present in the composition of anti-aging catalyst in an amount of less than 5%, or less than 4%, or less than 3%, or less than 2%, or less than 1%, or less than 0.1% by weight, or 0%, relative to the total weight of the composition of anti-aging catalyst.

[0011] In some embodiments, the anti-aging catalyst composition is free or substantially free of at least one active ingredient selected from the group consisting of ascorbic acid and other forms of vitamin C, ferulic acid, gallic acid, zinc PCA, azelaic acid, chlorogenic acid and vitamin E, or one of their combinations.

[0012] In certain embodiments, the anti-aging catalyst composition is free from or minimizes the use of non-renewable ingredients (for example, mineral oil and petroleum-based ingredients) and ingredients that have a negative environmental impact (for example, EDTA, which mobilizes heavy metals). Thus, in certain embodiments, the anti-aging catalyst composition is free from or essentially free from ingredients selected from the group consisting of parabens, phthalates, cyclomethicones, silicone, mineral oil, petroleum-based ingredients, synthetic dyes, sulfates, polyquaternium, microplastics, EDTA, silicone oils, mineral UV blockers, organic UV blockers, or combinations thereof.

[0013] As shown herein, the inventors have proposed an anti-aging catalyst composition, given herein by way of example, to confer unexpectedly one or more benefits, including, but not limited to: conferring, when applied to the skin prior to the application of a skincare composition or anti-aging skin treatment regimen, a statistically significant improvement in visible fine lines and radiance immediately after the initial application; reducing the number of wrinkles / fine lines on the forehead at week 8 compared with the use of the skincare composition or anti-aging skin treatment regimen alone, as shown in the study results included in this document.

[0014] When combined with anti-aging routines, the anti-aging catalyst composition is capable of enhancing the skin's anti-aging benefits, as illustrated by the reduction of forehead wrinkles and fine lines compared to the routines alone. The active ingredients in the anti-aging routines combined with the anti-aging catalyst include, but are not limited to: antioxidants (including vitamins C, E, and their derivatives), chemical exfoliants, retinols, niacinamide, panthenol, glycerin, squalane, ceramides, collagen, hyaluronic acid, peptides, plant and fruit extracts, and sunscreens.

[0015] When combined with anti-aging routines, for example, but not limited to, antioxidant (AOX) treatments, AHA scrubs, retinol products, the anti-aging catalyst can enhance radiance immediately after application.

[0016] When combined with antioxidant formulations, the anti-aging catalyst can improve AOX protection compared to the formulation alone.

[0017] The use of the anti-aging skincare composition can include one application per day, morning or night, after cleansing and before treatment with an anti-aging skincare composition or regimen. The anti-aging skincare composition can be used year-round. Application involves a soaked cotton pad (1 drop) or directly by hand (8 to 10 drops). After applying the anti-aging skincare composition, the skincare regimen can be applied at any time, immediately up to 6 hours later.

[0018] The anti-aging skin care composition can be associated with anti-aging devices for home use (for example, red light based devices).

[0019] Accordingly, in various embodiments, the anti-aging catalyst composition is proposed according to the detailed description that follows.

[0020] Cosmetically acceptable acids (acid-based skin actives)

[0021] The anti-aging catalyst composition includes a combination of cosmetically acceptable acids, the combination of cosmetically acceptable acids including a combination of at least three alpha-hydroxy acids, at least one beta-hydroxy acid, and one or more other cosmetically acceptable acids. In some embodiments, the anti-aging catalyst composition includes at least lactic acid, glycolic acid, mandelic acid, salicylic acid, and phytic acid. In some particular embodiments, the anti-aging catalyst composition includes only lactic acid, glycolic acid, mandelic acid, salicylic acid, and phytic acid.

[0022] The anti-aging catalyst composition is a water-based serum form that may be a rinse-off or leave-on formulation, wherein the anti-aging catalyst composition has a viscosity that is fluid when applied. In some embodiments, the anti-aging catalyst composition may be supplied infused in a suitable substrate or contained in a dispenser.

[0023] In various embodiments, the total cosmetically acceptable amount of acid is present in a range of approximately 1% to approximately 70%, or approximately 5% to approximately 70%, or approximately 5% to approximately 20%, or approximately 5% to approximately 10%, or approximately 5% to approximately 8%, by weight, relative to the total weight of the anti-aging catalyst composition, and, if necessary, a neutralizing agent may be present to provide a pH in a range of approximately pH 3.6 to approximately pH 9, or approximately pH 1 at approximately pH 5.5, and in some embodiments from approximately pH 3.5 to pH 3.9. In some particular embodiments, the anti-aging catalyst composition has a pH of 3.7.

[0024] In various embodiments, where appropriate, the neutralizing agent is present in a range of about 0.1% to about 5%, by weight, relative to the total weight of the anti-aging catalyst composition. Alpha-hydroxy acids

[0025] The anti-aging catalyst composition comprises at least three alpha-hydroxy acids. In certain particular embodiments, the at least three alpha-hydroxy acids include glycolic acid, lactic acid, and mandelic acid.

[0026] Suitable alpha-hydroxy acids include glycolic acid, lactic acid, mandelic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, their ester derivatives, or combinations thereof. Examples of ester derivatives include lactic acid ester compounds, such as methyl lactate, ethyl lactate, butyl lactate, and similarly, ester compounds of glycolic acid, tartaric acid, mandelic acid, and citric acid. A particularly suitable alpha-hydroxy acid is lactic acid. Lactic acid, or 2-hydroxypropanoic acid, is provided in the composition to provide enhanced skin exfoliation. In addition, lactic acid also stimulates the production of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) in the skin, thereby improving the skin's barrier function and hydration.

[0027] The anti-aging catalyst composition may include a total alpha-hydroxy acid concentration of approximately 0.3% to approximately 69%, or approximately 0.3% to approximately 20%, or approximately 1% to approximately 15%, or approximately 2.5% to approximately 6%, or approximately 5.5%, or any suitable combination, subcombination, range, or subrange of these values ​​by weight relative to the weight of the anti-aging catalyst composition. However, those skilled in the art will appreciate that other ranges fall within the scope of the invention. In some embodiments, the total amount of alpha-hydroxy acid present is not more than approximately 10%, or not more than approximately 6%. In various embodiments, each of the cosmetically acceptable acids in the anti-aging catalyst composition is present in a range of about 0.1% to about 69%, in which the anti-aging catalyst composition has a pH ranging from about pH 1 to about pH 5.5.

[0028] In certain particular embodiments, alpha-hydroxy acid is present in a range of approximately 0.1% to approximately 5% and, in some embodiments, is present at approximately 2.5%, lactic acid is present in a range of approximately 0.1% to approximately 5% and, in some embodiments, is present at approximately 2%, and mandelic acid is present in a range of approximately 0.1% to approximately 5% and, in In some embodiments, it is present at approximately 1% by weight of the anti-aging catalyst composition.

[0029] In some embodiments, the total amount of cosmetically acceptable alpha-hydroxy acids is present in a range of about 0.3% to about 15% and, in some embodiments, is about 5.5% by weight of the anti-aging catalyst composition.

[0030] Thus, any one or combination of alpha-hydroxy acids, as appropriate, may be present, by weight, relative to the total weight of the anti-aging catalyst composition, at a rate of about 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, to about 15 or up to about 69%, by weight, relative to the weight of the anti-aging catalyst composition, including intermediate increments and ranges. Beta-hydroxy acids

[0031] The anti-aging catalyst composition comprises at least one beta-hydroxy acid. In certain specific embodiments, the anti-aging catalyst composition may include a beta-hydroxy acid comprising salicylic acid. In certain specific embodiments, the anti-aging catalyst composition includes only a beta-hydroxy acid comprising salicylic acid.

[0032] The term "beta-hydroxy acid" refers, according to the present invention, to a carboxylic acid having a hydroxyl functional group and a carboxylic functional group separated by two carbon atoms. A beta-hydroxy acid may be present in the anti-aging catalyst composition in the form of the free acid and / or in the form of one of its associated salts (salts with an organic base or an alkali metal, in particular), depending notably on the final pH imposed on the anti-aging catalyst composition.

[0033] Suitable beta-hydroxy acids include salicylic acid and its derivatives (including 5-n-octanoylsalicylic acid, salicylate, sodium salicylate, and a willow extract), capryloylsalicylic acid, beta-hydroxybutanoic acid, propionic acid, beta-hydroxy beta-methylbutyric acid, tropic carnitine acid and trethocanic acid, and their combinations.

[0034] And in certain particular embodiments, the beta-hydroxy acid in the anti-aging catalyst composition may include at least one of salicylic acid and its derivatives (including 5-n-octanoylsalicylic acid, salicylate, sodium salicylate, and willow extract), capryloylsalicylic acid, beta-hydroxybutanoic acid, propionic acid, beta-hydroxy beta-methylbutyric acid, tropical carnitine acid, and trethocanic acid.

[0035] The anti-aging catalyst composition includes a beta-hydroxy acid concentration in the range of approximately 0.1% to and not more than approximately 2% beta-hydroxy acid, in weight, relative to the total weight of the anti-aging catalyst composition. In some embodiments, the anti-aging catalyst composition may include up to and not more than about 2%, or about 1.9%, of beta-hydroxy acid. In some embodiments, the anti-aging catalyst composition may include up to and not more than about 1% of beta-hydroxy acid. In some embodiments, the amount of beta-hydroxy acid, if any, is not more than about 0.40% to about 0.50%.

However, those skilled in the art will appreciate that other ranges fall within the scope of the invention.

[0037] Thus, at least one beta-hydroxy acid is present in the anti-aging catalyst composition at a rate of approximately 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, to approximately 2.0 or up to approximately 69%, by weight, relative to the weight of the anti-aging catalyst composition, including increments and all intermediate ranges and sub-ranges. Other acids#; phytic acid

[0038] The anti-aging catalyst composition includes one or more other cosmetically acceptable acids that are not alpha- or beta-hydroxy acids.

[0039] In some embodiments, the anti-aging catalyst composition may include phytic acid. Phytic acid is also known as phytate and is a sextuple dihydrogen phosphate ester of inositol (specifically, of the myo isomer), also called inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6) or inositol polyphosphate. At physiological pH, the phosphates are partially ionized, yielding the phytate anion. Phytic acid occurs naturally in plant seeds and constitutes a storage form of phosphorus.

[0040] Phytic acid may be present in the anti-aging catalyst composition in an amount of approximately 0.5% to approximately 69%, or approximately 0.5% to approximately 15%, or approximately 0.5% to approximately 5%, and in some embodiments, approximately 1% to approximately 4%, and in some embodiments, approximately 1.5% to approximately 2.5%, or approximately 2%, or any appropriate combination, subcombination, range, or subrange of these values ​​by weight relative to the weight of the anti-aging catalyst composition. As given by way of example in this disclosure, the phytic acid raw material may be supplied at a 50% dilution or otherwise as disclosed herein.

[0041] Thus, in various embodiments, phytic acid, if applicable, may be present in the anti-aging catalyst composition according to the disclosure, and each of the individual components in the ranges as described above, from about 0.50, 0.60, 0.70, 0.80, 0.90, 1.0, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, to about 15 percent or up to about 69 percent by weight, relative to the weight of the anti-aging catalyst composition, including intermediate increments and ranges. Amino acid

[0042] The anti-aging catalyst composition may include at least one amino acid. In some embodiments, the at least one amino acid may be selected from the group consisting of naturally occurring amino acids. In some embodiments, the at least one amino acid comprises taurine.

[0043] By way of non-limiting examples, the amino acids that may be used may be of natural or synthetic origin, in L, D, or racemic form, and comprise at least one acidic function selected, for example, from among carboxylic acid, sulfonic acid, phosphonic acid, and phosphoric acid functions. The amino acids may be in their neutral or ionic form. Polymeric forms are also useful, such as polyarginine, polylysine, etc. Further non-limiting examples include basic amino acids comprising an additional amine function optionally included in a ring or in a ureido function.In some cases, amino acids that may be used include, but are not limited to, taurine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, alanine, arginine, omithine, citrulline, asparagine, camitine, cysteine, glutamine, glycine, histidine, lysine, isoleucine, leucine, methionine, N-phenylalanine, proline, serine, threonine, tryptophan, tyrosine, ornithine, citrulline, and valine.

[0044] According to the various embodiments, the amount of amino acid, for example taurine, present in a composition according to the disclosure may range from about 0.1% to about 10%, or from about 0.2% to about 9%, or from about 0.5% to about 8%, or from about 0.8% to about 2%, or about 1%, or any appropriate combination, subcombination, range, or subrange of these values ​​by weight relative to the weight of the composition. In some embodiments according to the disclosure, the composition includes at least about 0.5%, or at least about 1% of at least one amino acid. In some embodiments according to the disclosure, the composition includes no more than about 1% of at least one amino acid. However, those skilled in the art will appreciate that other ranges fall within the scope of the invention.

[0045] Thus, any one or a combination of the amino acid, for example taurine, may be present, by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition, or from about 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, 6.5, 7.0, 7.5, 8.0, 8.5, 9.0, 9.5 to about 10.0 percent, by weight, relative to the weight of the anti-aging catalyst composition, including increments and intermediate ranges.

[0083] Example 3: Taurine-induced NAD+ stimulation studies

[0084] At-home micro-scrubs are a convenient and effective way for individuals to perform gentle chemical exfoliations in the comfort of their own homes. These skincare treatments involve the application of mild exfoliating solutions to help improve skin texture, clarity, and radiance without the need for professional intervention.2 At-home micro-scrubs are especially popular among those seeking to address minor skin concerns and achieve a fresher, smoother complexion. Generally, AHAs, such as glycolic acid and lactic acid, work to exfoliate the outer layer of skin, while BHAs, such as salicylic acid, can penetrate deeper into pores, making them suitable for treating acne and clogged pores.The chemical solution gently dissolves dead skin cells, promoting cell renewal and stimulating the growth of new, healthier skin.

[0085] CE Ferulic is a cutting-edge antioxidant serum. This potent formula combines 15% pure vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid), 1% vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol), and 0.5% ferulic acid. The unique blend of these ingredients provides superior protection against environmental stressors, such as UV rays and pollution, which can lead to premature aging and skin damage. The high concentration of vitamin C in CE Ferulic has been scientifically proven to neutralize free radicals, stimulate collagen synthesis, and brighten skin tone.3,4 Regular use of CE Ferulic has been clinically shown to improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and promote a more even and radiant complexion.

[0086] The in vitro tests described herein examine a micro-exfoliation, CEFerulic, and the combination of an anti-aging catalyst composition with the CEFerulic formula using reconstructed skin. The anti-aging catalyst composition can maximize the results, while amplifying the benefits, of at-home skincare. The note details the study on the micro-exfoliation with the anti-aging catalyst composition, CEFerulic products, and also the effects of combining the anti-aging catalyst composition with CEFerulic. In addition, the anti-aging catalyst composition formula also included taurine as an active ingredient, which is intended to complement the function of the serum in the anti-aging catalyst composition by amplifying the NAD+ level in cells.

[0087] NAD+ plays an important role in cellular energy metabolism, as it forms reduced NADH, which provides reduction equivalents of the mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) to fuel oxidative phosphorylation. However, the role of NAD+ has expanded beyond its role as a coenzyme, Because NAD+ and its metabolites also act as degradation substrates for a wide range of enzymes, such as sirtuins,1 the role of NAD+ as a coenzyme in most metabolic pathways suggests that limitations in NAD+ could affect metabolic efficiency. Therefore, decreased NAD+ levels could lead to the development of many age-related diseases.1

[0088] Taurine is one of the most abundant free amino acids in mammalian tissues, and its concentration in intracellular spaces reaches millimolar levels in certain cell types. In a previous study, oral taurine supplementation was able to suppress UVB-induced wrinkle formation, which may be associated with the regulation of moisture content in the epidermis. The beneficial effects of taurine on skin aging may be attributed to its osmoregulatory role.2 Furthermore, dietary taurine supplementation improves MDA, GSSG / GSH, and NAD+ / NADH levels in the precataractic diabetic lens.3 References

[0092] ÉTUDES DE STIMULATION DE NAD+ INDUITE PAR LA TAURINE

[0093] Cell studies were conducted in which the effects of taurine and niacinamide on NAD+ production were evaluated when keratinocytes were cultured with these raw materials. In all test conditions supplemented with active substances, the NAD+ levels in the cells increased compared to the untreated control. It was found that 0.2% niacinamide appeared to induce a higher level of NAD+ compared to 0.05% niacinamide. It was found that 0.05% taurine induced a comparable level of NAD+ compared to 0.2% niacinamide.

[0094] Taurine has been identified as an interesting active ingredient for skincare due to its potential benefits in boosting cellular energy. This report explores the effect of taurine supplementation on keratinocytes to understand its effect on increasing NAD+ levels in cells. This report demonstrates that Taurine has a stimulating effect on increasing NAD+ levels and is the subject of future trials to fully understand its effect on cellular metabolism. In our in vitro study, we observed that CEF confers significant benefits to the cell cycle and cell division. When combined with an anti-aging catalyst composition, the treatment not only enhances the benefits of skin renewal and resurfacing but also maintains the positive effects on the cell cycle and cell division. This is evident in the more pronounced impact on pathways related to skin cornification and epidermal development compared to the single-type treatment.
