Description
Title of the invention: COSMETIC SUNSCREEN COMPOSITIONS AND USE OF A COSMETIC SUNSCREEN COMPOSITION. FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0001] The present invention relates to cosmetic sunscreen compositions with a light, fresh, and watery feel, a blending effect, and an improved SPF, comprising (a) an oil compound system; (b) Copemicia cerifera (carnauba) wax; (c) a filler system; (d) a polymer and surfactant system; and (e) at least one organic UV filter. The present invention also relates to the use of the cosmetic sunscreen composition. CONTEXT OF THE INVENTION
[0002] Photoprotection of keratinous materials is considered of great importance in order to ensure protection against damage caused by the sun, sunburn, photoaging, as well as to reduce the risks of developing skin cancer caused by exposure to ultraviolet (“UV”) radiation.
[0003] Consumers are concerned about the negative effects of sun exposure, particularly the harmful effects of ultraviolet (“UV”) radiation exposure. Prolonged exposure to sunlight causes skin damage, such as sunburn. When skin is exposed to UV light with a wavelength of approximately 290 nm to approximately 400 nm, long-term damage can lead to serious conditions such as skin cancer. UV radiation also contributes to aging by causing the formation of free radicals in the skin. Free radicals include, for example, singlet oxygen, hydroxyl radicals, superoxide anions, 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, which 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 results in a loss of cell 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] In this sense, in a skin care ritual, consumers apply cosmetic sunscreen compositions to protect the skin and the sensation of the product on the skin is very important.
[0005] Consumers are therefore increasingly looking for cosmetic sun products that offer a light feel and fit into their skincare routine.
[0006] Moreover, consumers are also looking for cosmetic sunscreen products that include green technology (more bio-based and biodegradable ingredients) and that do not have a negative impact on the environment.
[0007] Regarding the degree of UV protection of a cosmetic sunscreen composition, this is directly related to the quantity and type of UV filters it contains. The higher the quantity of UV filters, the greater the degree of UV (UVA / UVB) protection. Obtaining a stable cosmetic sunscreen composition with high quantities of UV filters presents a challenge.
[0008] In particular, cosmetic sunscreen compositions must offer good protection against the sun, one measure of which is the sun protection factor (SPF) value. This value is the most important property for sunscreen compositions, and it is highly desirable to offer compositions with higher SPF values. Thus, there is a need for sunscreen compositions with improved SPF values to avoid the undesirable consequences of sun exposure.
[0009] However, the high levels of UV filters in sunscreen products make them less appealing due to their oily feel, sticky texture, long drying time, and shiny residue on the skin after application. The filters also tend to whiten the skin after application and after being wetted by water or perspiration, which is an undesirable attribute.
[0010] Therefore, a stable sunscreen composition with a high SPF is desired, combined with easy application, high spreading ability, short drying time, rapid absorption, a non-greasy feel, less stickiness, less white film, with a blending effect, which does not melt at high temperatures on the face, has an imperceptible touch, offers the ideal balance between hydration and oil control and combines high protection and a smooth texture for the skin.
[0011] The inventors of the present invention have overcome the drawbacks of the prior art and have obtained, in a surprising and unexpected way, a cosmetic sunscreen composition with a light and aqueous feel, a blending effect and an improved SPF, comprising, (a) an oil compound system; (b) a Copemicia cerifera (camauba) wax; (c) a filler system; (d) a polymer and surfactant system and (e) at least one organic UV filter.
[0012] The use of the polymer and surfactant system combined with the ingredients of the composition provides the desired properties of the invention. In particular, the use of modified potato starch has demonstrated an unexpected reinforcing effect, offering not only a high SPF but also increasing the durability properties of the composition.
[0013] The present invention aims to provide cosmetic sunscreen compositions that are lightweight and adaptable to the consumer's skincare routine, while having improved SPF values and providing higher photoprotection of keratinous materials, particularly the skin. Summary of the invention
[0014] The present invention relates to novel lightweight and refreshing cosmetic sunscreen compositions with a light, watery feel, a blending effect, and improved SPF, comprising (a) an oil compound system; (b) Copemicia cerifera (camauba) wax; (c) a filler system; (d) a polymer and surfactant system; and (e) at least one organic UV filter, which surprisingly offers a lightweight feel, less stickiness, high spreadability, rapid absorption, and a non-greasy feel, with a fast-breaking and blending effect, as well as increased SPF properties of the cosmetic sunscreen compositions. The present invention also relates to the use of the cosmetic sunscreen composition.

[0117] In conclusion, the cosmetic sunscreen composition according to Example 2 of the present invention, comprising an increased amount of modified potato starch, exhibits superior SPF performance (an increase of 14 SPF points measured in vivo) compared to the cosmetic sunscreen composition of Example 1. Example 7 – FP-UVA Performance
[0118] An in vivo FP-UVA performance analysis was performed between Examples 1 and 2. The methodology used conformed to the ISO 24442 standard procedure. FP-UVA performance is a simple ratio of the number of seconds or Joules / m² accumulated from light exposure, divided by the value of unprotected exposure in seconds. The evaluation was conducted on 5 healthy male and female subjects, aged 18 to 65 years, with phototypes III and IV.
[0119] A very precisely measured and controlled quantity (2 mg / cm²) of the cosmetic sunscreen compositions according to Examples 1 and 2 was applied to a marked area of the subject's dry skin (product applied with small circular motions without a finger cot and application time between 33 and 38 seconds). The cosmetic sunscreen compositions were allowed to dry for 15 to 30 minutes and irradiated with a controlled dose of ultraviolet radiation. The FP-UVA result was calculated as an arithmetic mean, with a 95% confidence interval (CI), of all the individual FP-UVA values.
[0120] The mean FP-UVA value for Example 1 with five valid results was 18.3.
[0121] The mean FP-UVA value for Example 2 with five valid results was 19.9.
[0122] An effective cosmetic sunscreen composition has an average FP-UVA between 10.7 and 14.7. In conclusion, the cosmetic sunscreen compositions according to Examples 1 and 2 of the present invention exhibit improved FP-UVA performance. Example 8 - Sensory Performance
[0123] In order to evaluate the sensory performance of the cosmetic sunscreen compositions of the present invention, the following studies were carried out. Example 8.1 - Sensory Expert

[0125] The comparative composition Cl presented the following list of ingredients on the packaging: aqua (water), isododecane, homosalate, ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate, ethylhexyl salicylate, diethylamino hydroxybenzoyl hexyl benzoate, bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine, ceramide NP, ceramide EOP, ceramide AP, ceramide AS, ceramide NS, centella asiatica extract, bisabolol, bifida ferment lysate, C1215 alkyl benzoate, methyl methacrylate cross-linked polymer, silica dimethyl silylate, ethylhexyl triazone, silica, methicone, caprylyl methicone, disteardimonium hectorite, propylene carbonate, Aloe barbadensis leaf extract, Portulaca oleracea extract, ethylhexylglycerin, tocopherol.
[0126] For this evaluation, professionals trained in the evaluation of sunscreens compared several desirable characteristics of a sunscreen composition.
[0127] Consequently, the experts concluded that the cosmetic sunscreen composition according to Example 3 of the present invention exhibits an improved aqueous feel, improved absorption, fewer wrinkles under the eyes, fewer fine lines on a dehydrated face, while also being less shiny and easier to apply. In contrast, the comparative Cia sunscreen composition showed an increased oily and powdery / velvety feel. Example 8.2 - Sensory Panel
[0128] A sensory panel evaluated the sensation properties of cosmetic sunscreen compositions according to Examples 1 and 2 of the present invention compared to the prior art sunscreen compositions Cl and C2.
[0129] The comparative composition Cl is as specified in Example 8.1. Comparative Composition C2 presented the following list of ingredients on the packaging: Aqua (Water), Octocrylene, Propanediol, Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane, Ethylhexyl Salicylate, Methyl Polymethacrylate, Dimethicone, Phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic Acid, Polysilicone-15, Propylene Glycol Dicaprylate / Dicaprate, Tromethamine, Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine, Silica, Dimethicone / Vinyldimethicone Crosslinked Polymer, 1,2-Hexanediol, Hydroxyacetophenone, Polysorbate 60, PEG-10 Dimethicone, Sodium Hyaluronate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Xanthan Gum, Caprylyl Glycol, Parfum (Fragrance), Disodium EDTA, PEG-8, Tocopherol, Tropolone, Ascorbyl Palmitate, Acid ascorbic acid, citric acid.
[0130] For this evaluation, the panelists were asked to describe the differences between the samples and to give an indication of the differences between them. The panelists concluded that the cosmetic sunscreen compositions according to Examples 1 and 2 of the present invention exhibit rapid absorption and less residue, as well as a low-greasy application and low-greasy fingers, resulting in a pleasant feel, compared to the comparative compositions Cl and C2.
[0131] According to the panelists, in terms of application, Cl promotes more white film, and C2 promotes more white film, soapy effect and immediately sticky skin than the cosmetic sunscreen composition according to Example 2.
[0132] Regarding the immediate skin finish, the panelists concluded that C1 tends to deliver whiter skin, and C2 tends to deliver brighter skin and promote a more slippery skin than the cosmetic sunscreen composition according to Example 2.
[0133] In conclusion, the most appreciated attributes of the cosmetic sunscreen compositions according to Examples 1 and 2 of the present invention were their good absorption, sensations of clean and comfortably dry skin, sebum control during the day, hydration and a silky feel. Example 8.3 - Gloss Analysis
[0134] A comparative gloss analysis was performed between the cosmetic sunscreen composition according to Example 1 of the present invention and the comparative sunscreen composition C2. The analysis was performed using a glossmeter.
[0135] The results of the brightness analysis are summarized in Table 2 below.
[0136] [Tables2] Cosmetic sunscreen composition. Shine level C2 - 36.90. Example 1 - 57.87
[0137] Gloss analysis shows that the cosmetic sunscreen compositions according to the present invention have a less glossy finish compared to prior art compositions. This difference is due to the incorporation of the specific combination of silica, silica silylate, and cellulose in the cosmetic sunscreen compositions according to the present invention, which act as mattifying agents, absorbing excess oil and sebum on the skin's surface.
[0138] This result demonstrates that the cosmetic sunscreen compositions according to the present invention effectively meet the needs of consumers who are looking for products with effective shine control. Example 8.4 - Blurring Effect
[0139] A comparative fading effect test was carried out between the cosmetic sunscreen composition according to Example 1 of the present invention and the comparative sunscreen composition C2. The results of the fading test are shown in Figures IA to 1D.
[0140] Initially, a microscopic image of the artificial skin was taken (Figures IA and IC). Then, the cosmetic sunscreen composition according to Example 1 was applied to the artificial skin and allowed to dry. After drying, a new microscopic image was taken (Figures IB and ID).
[0141] Figures IB and 1D demonstrate that the cosmetic sunscreen composition according to the present invention has a matte appearance and a blurring effect when applied to artificial skin.
[0142] This superior property is linked to the incorporation of the specific combination of silica, silica silylate and cellulose in the sunscreen compositions cosmetics according to the present invention. Larger cellulose particles act as fillers and diffuse light, helping to fill in skin imperfections and creating a smoother, more even surface. Silica and silica silylate, with their smaller particles, focus on oil absorption and providing a soft-focus effect, respectively. This combined performance gives the skin a more even and smooth appearance, without excessive shine. Example 9 – FPS performance in vitro
[0143] An in vitro study was conducted to evaluate the in vitro SPF values of cosmetic sunscreen compositions according to Examples 4 and 5.
[0144] The in vitro SPF of the cosmetic sunscreen composition according to Example 4 was 50.3 and the in vitro SPF of the cosmetic sunscreen composition according to Example 5 was 50.4.
[0145] The results of the in vitro SPF test demonstrate that the cosmetic sunscreen compositions according to the present invention exhibit improved SPF properties.
[0146] The Examples have demonstrated that cosmetic sunscreen compositions according to the present invention offer a light, watery feel and superior application and finish, as well as increased SPF properties compared to standard cosmetic sunscreen compositions of the prior art.
