Abstract
Description
Title of the invention: COMPOSITION AND METHOD FOR THE CARE OF KERATINOUS MATERIALS technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a cosmetic composition. In particular, the present invention relates to a composition for the care of keratinous materials. The present invention also relates to a non-therapeutic method for the care of keratinous materials. STATE OF THE ART
[0002] Human skin consists of three compartments, namely a superficial compartment, which is the epidermis, the dermis and a deep compartment, which is the hypodermis.
[0003] The dermis is primarily composed of fibroblasts and an extracellular matrix (ECM). This extracellular matrix consists of various macromolecules responsible for the skin's mechanical resistance, suppleness, tone, and elasticity, as well as physiologically important functions (hydration, thermoregulation, and regulation of skin permeability). These macromolecules include, in particular, collagens, elastin, and glycoconjugates (glycoproteins and proteoglycans).
[0004] Collagens represent 70% of the proteins in the ECM. Naturally, collagens are constantly renewed, but this renewal decreases with age, resulting in thinning of the dermis.
[0005] A wide variety of cosmetic products have been used to care for the skin, for example, to resist skin aging. However, some anti-aging cosmetic products on the market are unsatisfactory; for example, they are not stable and / or cannot provide a good feel (i.e., a non-sticky touch) on the skin.
[0006] Thus, there is always a need to formulate a skincare composition for keratinous materials, for example, an anti-aging skincare product, that is stable and can provide a pleasant sensation (for example, a non-sticky feel) on the keratinous materials. Summary of the invention
[0007] An object of the present invention is therefore to develop a keratinous material care composition, for example anti-aging for the skin, which is stable and can deliver a good sensation (for example, a non-sticky touch) on keratinous materials.
[0008] Another object of the present invention is to propose a non-therapeutic method for the treatment of keratinous materials.
[0009] Consequently, in a first aspect, the present invention proposes a composition comprising: i. at least one copper salt; ii. at least one hydrophilic acrylic polymer; and iii. at least one amphiphilic acrylic copolymer.
[0010] The inventors have discovered that the composition of the present invention is stable and can deliver a good sensation (for example, a non-sticky touch) on keratinous materials.
[0011] The composition of the present invention can be used to resist skin aging.
[0012] In a second aspect, the present invention proposes a non-therapeutic method for the treatment of keratinous materials, comprising the application of the composition according to the first aspect of the present invention on the keratinous materials.
[0013] Other subjects, features, aspects, and advantages of the present invention will be presented in the following description and will be partly evident from the description or may be learned through practice of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
