Description

Technical Field

[0001] The subject of the present invention is a solid composition for making up keratinous substances (in particular the skin and / or the lips), which contains ethyl cellulose, at least one benzoic acid ester oil, at least one liquid fatty alcohol, and at least one phenylated silicone oil containing dimethicone fragments, at specific contents. Another main subject of the present invention is a process for making up and / or caring for in particular the lips, which is constituted by using such a composition.

[0002] More specifically, the present invention relates to a composition for making up the skin and / or the lips for which a shiny finish is desired.

Background Art

[0003] In particular, liquid or solid anhydrous compositions specialized in giving a shiny finish to human keratinous substances such as the skin and the lips are obtained from mixtures containing a relatively high content of oil (in particular non-volatile oil) and also colorants (such as pearlescent agents and / or pigments, etc.).

[0004] In the case of fluid compositions, it is necessary to ensure the stability of the composition over time, to exhibit a viscosity sufficient to keep in suspension in particular the colorants, and to prevent the composition from flowing out beyond the range in which it is being handled or made up during application. The viscosity of this composition must also not limit the migration of the composition after application to the wrinkles and fine lines at the edge of the lips. On the other hand, in order to obtain a sufficiently thin and uniform adherent layer, the viscosity of the composition must be kept such that it can be applied as desired with good slipperiness.

[0005] In the case of a solid composition, it is frequently practiced to add a structuring agent (e.g., wax, etc.) to the above-mentioned mixture. This compound must be sufficiently firm so that the composition can be molded into a rod shape without impairing its usability. The reason is that the composition must be able to disintegrate its structure so that an appropriate amount can be immediately applied to the lips. An anhydrous makeup composition containing a first oil (e.g., octyldodecanol), at least one non-volatile silicone oil that is incompatible with the first oil, and ethyl cellulose is known, for example, from International Publication No. WO 2017 / 108584 pamphlet.

Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0007] This composition enables the obtaining of a shiny deposit that remains over a long period. However, it is desirable to further improve the transfer resistance of the obtained deposit without degrading the gloss or comfort properties of the obtained deposit, or increasing the stickiness, or introducing a tight or dry feeling to the lips to which this composition is applied.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0008] These problems and the like are solved by the present invention. Therefore, the subject of the present invention is a solid cosmetic composition for making up and / or caring for human keratin substances (especially the lips), * at least ethyl cellulose, * at least a first oil, an ester of benzoic acid and a preferably saturated C8 - C 20 monoalcohol, preferably C8 - C18 and mixtures thereof; * At least a second oil, C 10 ~C 26 a second oil which is a polar non-volatile hydrocarbon-based oil selected from alcohols and optionally selected from esters other than the first oil; at least a third oil, the third oil being chosen from non-volatile phenylated silicones comprising at least one dimethicone fragment; *Optionally, at least a fourth oil, the fourth oil being a non-phenylated silicone oil or a phenylated silicone oil that does not contain dimethicone fragments. Including, * the oil content is such that the mass ratio of the first oil, the second oil and, optionally, the fourth oil / third oil is less than or equal to 1; It is a solid cosmetic composition.

[0009] Another subject of the invention is a process for making up human keratinous substances, in particular the skin or the lips, comprising applying a composition as defined above.

[0010] The compositions according to the invention exhibit the advantage of being long-term stable and easy to apply, while improving the slippage, and the deposit obtained is clear, uniform, non-sticky and does not migrate into wrinkles and fine lines, especially those around the lips and eyes (crow's feet).

[0011] The deposit obtained is finer, despite the high content of non-volatile oils. It makes it possible to obtain a glossy makeup result and has improved wearability. It is also comfortable and does not leave a feeling of dryness or tightness.

[0012] Finally, the transfer resistance of the deposit obtained by applying the composition according to the invention is improved. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0013] In the following, the phrase "at least one" is equivalent to "one or more". The phrases "from... to..." and "in the range of... to..." should be understood to mean that the limit points are included, unless otherwise specified.

[0014] The temperatures mentioned in this description are indicated at atmospheric pressure (1.013 × 10 5 Pa).

[0015] The composition according to the present invention is a cosmetic composition, which means in particular that this composition contains a physiologically acceptable medium, or in other words, it contains a medium particularly suitable for the application of the composition of the present invention to human keratinous substances (most specifically, the skin and lips).

[0016] The physiologically acceptable medium is generally also adapted to the nature of the support on which the composition is applied and to the form in which the composition is packaged therein.

[0017] The composition according to the present invention preferably contains less than 5% by weight, more specifically 2% by weight, or even less than 1% by weight of water, based on the total mass of the composition. Advantageously, the composition according to the present invention is anhydrous. The term "anhydrous" means in particular that water is not intentionally added to the composition, although it may be present in trace form in the various compounds used.

[0018] The composition according to the present invention is in solid form. The term "solid" means in particular a composition that does not flow under its own mass at ambient temperature (25 °C) and atmospheric pressure. Preferably, the composition according to the present invention is in the form of a stick. More specifically, the term "stick" is understood to mean a pharmaceutical form, and its hardness can be measured according to the following "cheese wire" method.

[0019] Hardness measurement protocol: Store the rod-shaped composition at 20 °C for 24 hours before measuring the hardness.

[0020] This measurement is carried out at 20 °C and consists of cutting the rod horizontally by moving a hard tungsten wire with a diameter of 250 μm at a speed of 100 mm / min against the rod of the product (preferably cylindrical).

[0021] The hardness (expressed in Nm -1 ) of a sample of the composition of the present invention is measured using a DFGS2 tensile testing machine sold by Indelco-Chatillon.

[0022] This measurement is repeated 3 times and then the average is taken. The average (denoted as Y) of the three values read using the above-mentioned tensile testing machine is expressed in grams. This average is converted to newtons and then divided by L (representing the maximum value of the distance through which the wire has passed). In the case of a cylindrical rod, L corresponds to the diameter (in meters).

[0023] The hardness is converted to Nm -1 according to the following formula: (Y × 10 -3 × 9.8) / L. According to this measurement method, when the composition according to the present invention is in solid form, it preferably has a hardness of 20 - 150 Nm -1 at 20 °C and under atmospheric pressure, more preferably 40 - 120 Nm -1 .

[0024] Ethyl cellulose As already shown, the composition according to the present invention contains ethyl cellulose.

[0025] Ethyl cellulose is a cellulose alkyl ether containing chains composed of β-anhydroglucose units linked to each other via acetal bonds. Each anhydroglucose unit contains three replaceable hydroxyl groups, and all or some of these hydroxyl groups are capable of reacting according to the following reaction: RONa + R’Cl → ROR’ + NaCl (wherein R represents a cellulose group and R’ represents an ethyl group).

[0026] When all three hydroxyl groups are substituted, the degree of substitution of each anhydroglucose unit is 3. In other words, the alkoxy group content is 54.88%.

[0027] The ethyl cellulose polymer used in the cosmetic composition according to the present invention is preferably a polymer in which the degree of substitution of ethoxy groups is in the range of 2.5 to 2.6 per anhydroglucose unit. In other words, it is a polymer containing an ethoxy group content in the range of 44% to 50%.

[0028] The ethyl cellulose used in the composition according to the present invention is more specifically found in powder form.

[0029] This is sold, for example, by Dow Chemicals under the trade name Ethocel Standard (in particular, including Ethocel Standard 7 FP Premium and Ethocel Standard 100 FP Premium). Other commercially available products (for example, those sold by Ashland, Inc. under the trade names Aqualon EC type-K, type-N, and type-T, preferably type-N, such as N7 and N100) are particularly suitable for the practice of the present invention.

[0030] Advantageously, the ethyl cellulose content is in the range of 1% to 10% by mass, preferably in the range of 2% to 6% by mass, based on the total mass of the composition.

[0031] The composition according to the present invention comprises, in addition to ethyl cellulose, at least one specific benzoic acid ester (oil 1), at least a second oil which is a polar non-volatile hydrocarbon oil other than oil 1, and this polar non-volatile hydrocarbon oil contains at least one fatty alcohol, a second oil (oil 2), at least one non-volatile phenylated silicone oil (oil 3) that does not contain dimethicone fragments, and optionally at least one different non-volatile silicone oil (oil 4). The content of each of the oils in this composition is such that the mass ratio of the first oil, the second oil, and, if necessary, the fourth oil / the third oil is 0.5 to 1, more specifically 0.7 to 1.

[0032] First oil of benzoic acid ester The composition according to the present invention comprises benzoic acid and, preferably saturated, an ester with a C8 - C 20 monoalcohol, preferably an ester with a C8 - C 18 monoalcohol, and at least a first oil selected from these mixtures (therefore, this compound is liquid at ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure).

[0033] More specifically, the first oil is selected from C 12 - C 15 alkyl benzoate (C12 - 15Alkyl Benzoate - INCI name), C 16 - C 17 alkyl benzoate (C16 - 17Alkyl Benzoate - INCI name), stearyl benzoate, isostearyl benzoate, ethylhexyl benzoate, and octyldodecyl benzoate, and mixtures thereof, preferably selected from C 12 - C 15 alkyl benzoate.

[0034] Advantageously, the content of the first oil (C) is 8% to 30% by mass, more specifically 10% to 25% by mass, based on the total mass of the composition.

[0035] Second oil of polar non-volatile hydrocarbon As shown above, the composition according to the invention comprises at least a second oil, which is a second oil that is a polar non-volatile hydrocarbon oil.

[0036] The term "oil" is understood to mean a lipophilic compound that is liquid at ambient temperature (25 °C) and atmospheric pressure (1.013×10 5 Pa).

[0037] Advantageously, this oil is immiscible with water. The term "immiscible with water" is understood to mean that, under normal temperature and pressure conditions, when an equal amount of water and oil are mixed and stirred, a stable solution containing only a single phase is not formed. The observation is carried out visually or using a phase-contrast microscope on 100 g of the mixture obtained after thoroughly mixing, if necessary using a Rayneri blender, to generate vortices in the mixture (as a guide, 200 - 1000 rpm), and after allowing the resulting mixture to stand in a closed flask at ambient temperature for 24 hours before the observation.

[0038] The term "hydrocarbon oil" is understood to mean an oil that is essentially formed from or composed of carbon atoms, hydrogen atoms, and optionally one or more oxygen atoms and nitrogen atoms and does not contain other heteroatoms (for example, one or more silicon atoms). Therefore, this hydrocarbon oil is different from silicone oil. It may contain alcohol groups, ester groups, ether groups, carboxylic acid groups, amine groups, and / or amide groups.

[0039] The polar oil for the purposes of the present invention contains at least one oxygen atom or nitrogen atom in addition to carbon atoms and hydrogen atoms, and preferably contains at least one oxygen atom.

[0040] The term "non-volatile oil" is understood to mean an oil having a vapor pressure of less than 2.66 Pa, preferably less than 0.13 Pa. As an example, the vapor pressure can be measured by a static method according to this vapor pressure or by an effusion method by isothermal thermogravimetric measurement (OCDE standard 104).

[0092] When the composition contains at least one further volatile oil, this content more specifically occupies from 0.1% to 15% by mass, more specifically from 1% to 12% by mass, based on the total mass of the composition.

[0093] Wax The composition according to the invention may advantageously contain at least one wax.

[0094] For the purposes of the present invention, the term "wax" means a lipophilic compound which is solid at ambient temperature (25 °C), has a reversible solid / liquid change of state, and has a melting point of 30 °C or higher, which may be up to 120 °C.

[0095] For the purposes of the present invention, the melting point corresponds to the temperature of the highest endothermic peak observed by thermal analysis (DSC) as described in ISO standard 11357-3; 1999. The melting point of the wax can be measured using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), for example, using a calorimeter sold under the name DSC Q2000 from TA Instruments, equipped with TA Universal Analysis software.

[0096] The measurement protocol is as follows: A 5 mg sample of the wax placed in a crucible is subjected to a first temperature increase in the range from -20 °C to 120 °C at a heating rate of 10 °C / min, then it is cooled from 120 °C to -20 °C at a cooling rate of 10 °C / min, and finally it is subjected to a second temperature increase in the range from -20 °C to 120 °C at a heating rate of 5 °C / min.

[0097] During the second temperature increase, the melting point of the solid fat substance is measured, which corresponds to the temperature of the highest endothermic peak observed in the melting curve and represents the variation of the difference in the energy absorbed as a function of temperature.

[0098] The melting enthalpy (ΔHf) of the wax corresponding to the integral of the entire obtained melting curve can also be measured. This melting enthalpy of the wax is the amount of energy required to cause the change of the compound from the solid state to the liquid state. It is expressed in J / g.

[0099] The wax can be silicone and preferably can be a hydrocarbon wax. This wax can also be of plant origin, mineral origin, animal origin, and / or synthetic origin.

Thus, polar hydrocarbon waxes can contain alcohol groups, ester groups, ether groups, carboxylic acid groups, amine groups, and / or amide groups.

[0105] The term "silicone wax" means an oil containing at least one silicon atom and in particular an Si - O group.

[0106] According to a first preferred embodiment, the polar wax is a hydrocarbon wax.

[0107] As the polar hydrocarbon wax, a wax selected from ester waxes and alcohol waxes is particularly preferred.

Examples include trihydroxystearin (or glyceryl trihydroxystearate), tristearin (or glyceryl tristearate), or tribehenin (or glyceryl tribehenate), which may be mentioned alone or as a mixture. Among suitable compounds, mention may be made of the triester of glycerol and 12-hydroxystearic acid, or hydrogenated castor oil, such as Thixcin R and Thixcin E sold by Elementis Specialties. vi) Waxes of animal or plant origin, such as beeswax, synthetic beeswax, polyglycerolized beeswax, carnauba wax, candelilla wax, rice bran wax, ouricury wax, esparto wax, cork fibre wax, sugarcane wax, Japan wax (sumac wax), montan wax, orange wax, laurel wax, or sunflower wax, in particular refined sunflower wax may also be mentioned; vii) Naturally or synthetically polyoxyalkylenated or polyglycerolized hydrocarbon waxes of animal or plant origin may also be mentioned; the number of (C2-C4) oxyalkylene units may range from 2 to 100, and the number of glycerol units may range from 1 to 20.

[0111] According to another embodiment, the polar wax may be an alcohol wax. As the alcohol wax, a mixture of saturated straight-chain C 30 -C 50 alcohols may be mentioned, for example, Performacol 550 Alcohol, a wax from New Phase Technology, stearyl alcohol, and cetyl alcohol, or mixtures thereof may be mentioned.

[0112] ) Silicone wax As the silicone wax, for example, a mixture containing a compound of the C30-45 Alkyldimethylsilyl Polypropylsilsesquioxane (C30-45 alkyldimethylsilyl polypropylsilsesquioxane (INCI name) type) can be mentioned, for example, Dow Corning SW-8005 C30 Resin Wax, a product sold by Dow Corning. Mixtures containing compounds of the C30-45 Alkyl Methicone (C30-45 alkyl methicone) (INCI name) type, such as Dow Corning® AMS-C30 Cosmetic Wax products, etc. can also be mentioned. Silicone-modified beeswax can also be mentioned.

[0113] Preferably, when the composition contains this wax, the wax is selected from hydrocarbon waxes. More specifically, the wax is selected from non-polar waxes; polar hydrocarbon waxes, for example, waxes of animal or plant origin, waxes of animal or plant origin obtained by catalytic hydrogenation of animal oils or vegetable oils; alcohol waxes; and mixtures thereof, and preferably is selected from non-polar hydrocarbon waxes (alone or as a mixture).

[0114] When the composition contains wax, the wax content is advantageously in the range of 1% to 20% by mass, particularly in the range of 5% to 15% by mass, based on the total mass of this composition.

[0115] Paste-like compound The composition according to the present invention may also contain at least one compound that is paste-like at ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure.

[0116] For the purposes of the present invention, the term "paste-like" means a lipophilic compound whose solid / liquid state changes reversibly, particularly having an anisotropic crystal structure in the solid state, and containing a liquid fraction and a solid fraction at ambient temperature.

[0117] In other words, the starting melting point of the paste-like compound can be below the ambient temperature. The liquid fraction of the paste-like compound measured at the ambient temperature can account for 9% to 97% by mass of this paste-like compound. This fraction that is liquid at the ambient temperature preferably accounts for 15% to 85% by mass, more preferably 40% to 85% by mass.

[0118] The melting point of the paste-like fatty substance is determined according to the same principle as described in detail above for waxes.

[0119] However, in the case of the paste-like compound, the measurement protocol is as follows.

[0120] A 5 mg sample of the paste-like fatty substance placed in a crucible is exposed to a first temperature rise in the range from -20 °C to 100 °C at a heating rate of 10 °C / min, then it is cooled from 100 °C to -20 °C at a cooling rate of 10 °C / min, and finally it is exposed to a second temperature rise in the range from -20 °C to 100 °C at a heating rate of 5 °C / min.

[0121] The melting point of the paste-like fatty substance is the value of the temperature corresponding to the tip of the peak of the curve representing the variation of the difference in the absorbed energy as a function of temperature.

[0122] It should be noted that the liquid fraction (by mass) of the paste-like fatty substance at the ambient temperature is equal to the ratio of the heat of fusion consumed at the ambient temperature to the heat of fusion of this paste-like fatty substance.

[0123] The heat of fusion of the paste-like fatty substance is the heat consumed by the substance to transition from the solid state to the liquid state. The paste-like fatty substance is said to be in the solid state when all of its body is in the crystalline solid form. The paste-like fatty substance is said to be in the liquid state when all of its body is in the liquid form.

[0124] The heat of fusion of the pasty fatty substance is the amount of energy required to change the pasty fatty substance from a solid state to a liquid state. This is expressed in J / g. The heat of fusion of the pasty fatty substance is equal to the area under the curve of the obtained thermogram.

[0125] The pasty compound can be particularly selected from synthetic pasty compounds and fatty substances of plant origin.

[0126] The pasty compound can be particularly selected from the following: - Lanolin and its derivatives, for example, lanolin alcohol, oxyethylenated lanolin, acetylated lanolin, lanolin esters, for example, isopropyl lanolin fatty acid, and oxypropylenated lanolin, - Petrolatum (also known as petrolatum), - Ethers of pentaerythritol and C2-C4 polyalkylene glycols, for example, compounds having the following INCI names: PEG-5 Pentaerythrityl Ether (PEG-5 pentaerythrityl ether), PPG-5 Pentaerythrityl Ether (PPG-5 pentaerythrityl ether), and mixtures thereof.

More specifically, the content of the colorant in this composition is advantageously at least 0.01% by mass, more specifically from 0.05% to 30% by mass, particularly from 0.1% to 25% by mass, and preferably from 0.1% to 15% by mass, based on the total mass of the composition.

[0130] This colorant can be selected from coated or uncoated pigments, water-soluble dyes, fat-soluble dyes, and mixtures thereof.

[0131] Pigment The term "pigment" means white or colored inorganic or organic particles that are insoluble in the medium of the present composition and are intended to color and / or opacify the resulting composition and / or deposit. Thus, a pigment is not a filler.

[0132] According to a particular first embodiment, the pigment used is selected from inorganic pigments.

[0133] The term "inorganic pigment" refers to any pigment that meets the definition in the chapter on inorganic pigments in Ullmann’s encyclopaedia. Among the inorganic pigments useful in the present invention, in addition to zirconium oxide or cerium oxide, zinc oxide, iron oxide (black iron oxide, yellow iron oxide, or red iron oxide) or chromium oxide, manganese violet, ultramarine blue, chromium hydroxide and ferric blue, titanium dioxide, and metallic powders (e.g., aluminum powder and copper powder) may be mentioned. The following inorganic pigments may also be used: Ta2O5, Ti3O5, Ti2O3, TiO, ZrO2 as a mixture with TiO2, ZrO2, Nb2O5, CeO2, ZnS.

[0134] The diameter of the pigment useful in connection with the present invention is generally greater than 100 nm and can range up to 10 μm, preferably can range from 200 nm to 5 μm, and more preferably can range from 300 nm to 1 μm.

[0135] According to a particular form of the present invention, the pigment has a diameter characterized in that D

[50] exceeds 100 nm and in some cases ranges up to 10 μm, preferably ranges from 200 nm to 5 μm, and more preferably ranges from 300 nm to 1 μm.

[0136] This diameter is measured by static light scattering using a commercially available Malvern MasterSizer 3000 (registered trademark) particle size analyzer, which makes it possible to determine the particle size distribution of all particles in a wide range that can potentially cover from 0.01 μm to 1000 μm. The data is processed based on the standard Mie scattering theory. This theory is most suitable for particle size distributions in the sub-micron to several micron range; thereby, it becomes possible to measure the "effective" particle size. This theory is described, inter alia, in the publication by Van de Hulst, H.C., Light Scattering by Small Particles, Chapters 9 and 10, Wiley, New York, 1957.

[0137] D

[50] represents the maximum size indicating 50 volume % of the particles.

[0138] In connection with the present invention, the inorganic pigment is, more specifically, iron oxide and / or titanium dioxide. Examples that can be more specifically cited include, for example, titanium dioxide and iron oxide coated with aluminum stearoyl glutamate, which are sold under the reference name of NAI (registered trademark) by Miyoshi Kasei Co., Ltd.

[0139] Pearlescent pigments can also be cited as inorganic pigments that can be used in the present invention.

[0140] The term "pearlescent pigment" should be understood to mean colored particles in any form, which may or may not have an iridescent color, and in particular, are produced in the outer shell by a certain specific mollusk or are synthesized and have a color effect by light interference.

[0141] The pearlescent agent can be selected from pearlescent pigments such as titanium-mica coated with iron oxide, titanium-mica coated with bismuth oxychloride, titanium-mica coated with chromium oxide, titanium-mica coated with an organic dye, and also pearlescent pigments based on bismuth oxychloride. These can also be mica particles with at least two continuous layers of metal oxide and / or organic colorant superimposed on the surface of the mica particles.

[0142] Examples of pearlescent agents can also include natural mica coated with titanium oxide, iron oxide, natural pigments, or bismuth oxychloride.

[0143] More specifically, the pearlescent agent can have the colors or color shades of yellow, pink, red, bronze, orange, brown, gold, and / or copper.

[0144] Among the pigments that can be used according to the present invention, there can be those having an optical effect different from a simple conventional coloring effect (i.e., a unified and stabilized effect such as produced by a conventional colorant, for example, a single-color pigment). For the purposes of the present invention, the term "stabilized" means that there is no influence of color variability from the perspective of observation or in response to temperature changes.

[0145] For example, this material can be selected from particles having a metallic color shade, goniochromatic colorants, diffraction pigments, thermochromic agents, fluorescent brighteners, and also fibers, especially interference fibers. Needless to say, these various materials can be combined to simultaneously exhibit two effects or even to exhibit a novel effect according to the present invention.

[0146] According to a specific embodiment, the composition according to the present invention contains at least one uncoated pigment.

[0147] According to another specific embodiment, the composition according to the present invention contains at least one pigment coated with at least one lipophilic compound or hydrophobic compound.

[0148] This type of pigment is particularly advantageous. As long as this type of pigment is treated with a hydrophobic compound, this pigment exhibits a predominant affinity for the oil phase, and then the oil phase can transfer this pigment.

[0149] The coating may also contain at least one additional non-lipophilic compound.

[0150] For the purposes of the present invention, the "coating" of the pigment according to the present invention generally means the overall or partial surface treatment of the pigment by a surfactant absorbed, adsorbed, or grafted onto the pigment.

[0151] The surface-treated pigment can be prepared according to surface treatment techniques of chemical, electrical, mechanochemical, or mechanical nature well-known to those skilled in the art. Commercially available products can also be used.

[0152] The surfactant can be absorbed, adsorbed, or grafted onto the pigment surface by evaporation of the solvent, chemical reaction, and formation of covalent bonds.

[0153] According to one variant form, the surface treatment consists of coating the pigment.

[0154] This coating can account for 0.1% to 20% by mass, particularly 0.5% to 5% by mass, based on the total mass of the coated pigment.

[0155] The coating can be caused by adsorption of the liquid surfactant onto the surface of the solid particles by simply mixing the solid particles and the liquid surfactant while optionally heating, for example, prior to incorporation of the particles into other raw materials of a makeup composition or a care composition.

[0156] The coating can be caused, for example, by a chemical reaction between a surfactant and the surface of solid pigment particles and the formation of a covalent bond between the surfactant and the particles. This method is described, inter alia, in U.S. Patent No. 4,578,266.

[0157] The chemical surface treatment can be constituted by diluting a surfactant in a volatile solvent, dispersing a pigment in this mixture, and then slowly evaporating the volatile solvent. As a result, the surfactant deposits on the surface of the pigment.

[0158] When the pigment contains a lipophilic coating or a hydrophobic coating, this pigment is preferably present in the fatty phase of the composition according to the present invention.

[0159] According to a specific embodiment of the present invention, the pigment can be coated according to the present invention with at least one compound selected from silicone-based surfactants; fluorine-based surfactants; fluorosilicone-based surfactants; metal soaps; N-acyl amino acids or salts thereof; lecithin and its derivatives; isopropyltriisostearyl titanate; isostearyl sebacate; natural plant-based waxes or animal-based waxes; polar synthetic waxes; fatty esters; phospholipids; and mixtures thereof.

[0160] According to a specific embodiment of the present invention, the pigment can be coated with a hydrophilic compound.

[0161] According to another specific embodiment, the colorant is a synthetic, natural, or organo pigment of natural origin.

[0162] The term "organic pigment" refers to any pigment that meets the definition in the chapter on organic pigments in Ullmann’s encyclopaedia. Organic pigments include, inter alia, nitroso compounds, nitro compounds, azo compounds, xanthene compounds, quinoline compounds, anthraquinone compounds, phthalocyanine compounds, metal complex compounds, isoindolinone compounds, isoindoline compounds, quinacridone compounds, perinone compounds, perylene compounds, diketopyrrolopyrrole compounds, thioindigo compounds, dioxazine compounds, triphenylmethane compounds, or quinophthalone compounds, from which they can be selected.

These composite pigments can in particular be composed of particles comprising an inorganic core at least partially coated with an organic pigment and at least one binder for fixing the organic pigment to the inorganic core.

[0165] The pigment can also be a lake. The term "lake" means an insoluble dye adsorbed on insoluble particles, and the aggregate thus obtained remains insoluble during use.

[0169] The pigment is preferably present in a content of at least 0.01% by mass, more specifically at least 1% by mass, and even more specifically at least 2% by mass, based on the mass of the composition in question. More specifically, the content of the colorant is less than 30% by mass, more specifically 0.05% to 30% by mass, and even better 0.1% to 25% by mass, based on the total mass of this composition.

[0170] Water-soluble dye or fat-soluble dye According to another specific embodiment of the present invention, the colorant is a water-soluble dye or a fat-soluble dye.

[0171] For the purposes of the present invention, the term "water-soluble colorant" means any natural or synthetic generally organic compound that is soluble in an aqueous phase or a water-miscible solvent and is capable of coloring.

[0172] For the purposes of the present invention, the term "fat-soluble colorant" means any natural or synthetic generally organic compound that is soluble in an oily phase or a solvent miscible with the oily phase and is capable of coloring.

[0173] Suitable water-soluble dyes for use in the present invention may include, in particular, synthetic or natural water-soluble dyes, such as, for example, FDC Red 4, DC Red 6, DC Red 22, DC Red 28, DC Red 30, DC Red 33, DC Orange 4, DC Yellow 5, DC Yellow 6, DC Yellow 8, FDC Green 3, DC Green 5, and FDC Blue 1.

[0179] "Filler" refers to particles having organic or inorganic properties that are colorless or white, solid, have any shape, and are insoluble in the medium of the composition at ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure. This filler is preferably dispersed in the composition.

[0180] The term "inorganic" is understood to mean any compound whose chemical structure does not contain carbon atoms.

[0181] The filler may or may not have a coated surface, and in particular, it may be surface-treated with silicone, amino acids, fluorinated derivatives, or any other substance that improves the dispersibility and affinity in the composition of the filler.

[0186] The spherical filler can be coated with a hydrophobizing agent. This hydrophobizing agent can be selected from fatty acids (for example, stearic acid); metal soaps (for example, aluminum dimyristate, aluminum salt of hydrogenated tallow glutamate); amino acids; N-acyl amino acids or salts thereof; lecithin, isopropyl titanate triisostearate; and mixtures thereof. The N-acyl amino acid can contain an acyl group having 8 to 22 carbon atoms, and can contain, for example, a 2-ethylhexanoyl group, a caproyl group, a lauroyl group, a myristoyl group, a palmitoyl group, a stearoyl group, or a cocoyl group. The salts of these compounds can be aluminum salts, magnesium salts, calcium salts, zirconium salts, zinc salts, sodium salts, or potassium salts. The amino acid can be, for example, lysine, glutamic acid, or alanine. The term "alkyl" mentioned in the above compounds particularly refers to an alkyl group having 1 to 30 carbon atoms, preferably an alkyl group having 5 to 16 carbon atoms.

[0187] When the composition according to the present invention contains a filler, its content advantageously occupies 0.5% by mass to 15% by mass, more specifically 2% by mass to 10% by mass, based on the mass of this composition.

[0188] Mineral thickener The composition according to the present invention may also contain at least one mineral thickener selected from optionally modified clay, optionally modified silica, or a mixture thereof.

[0189] More specifically, when the composition contains a mineral thickener, its content is expressed as an active substance and occupies 0.1% to 10% by mass, preferably 0.2% to 5% by mass, based on the total mass of the composition.

[0190] Optionally modified clay Clay is a silicate containing cations selected from calcium, magnesium, aluminum, sodium, potassium and lithium cations, and mixtures thereof.

[0191] Examples of such products include vermiculite-based, stevensite-based, or chlorite-based clays in addition to smectite-based clays. These clays may be of natural origin or synthetic origin.

[0192] Preferably, organophilic clays, more specifically modified clays such as montmorillonite, bentonite, hectorite, attapulgite, or sepiolite, and mixtures thereof are used. The clay is preferably bentonite or hectorite.

[0193] These clays are modified with compounds selected from quaternary amines, tertiary amines, amine acetates, imidazolines, amine soaps, aliphatic sulfates, alkylaryl sulfonates, or amine oxides, and mixtures thereof.

[0194] Therefore, quaternary amines, more specifically, C 10 ~C 22Fatty acid ammonium halides, for example, hectorite modified with chloride, for example, distearyldimethylammonium halide, preferably hectorite modified with chloride (CTFA name: distearyldimonium hectorite), for example, those sold under the names Bentone 38V, Bentone 38V CG, or Bentone EW CE from Elementis, or stearalkonium hectorite, for example, especially products such as Bentone 27 V may be mentioned.

[0196] According to a preferred embodiment, the thickener is selected from organophilic modified clays, especially organophilic modified hectorites, especially benzyl dimethyl ammonium stearate or distearyldimethylammonium halide, especially those modified with chloride.

[0197] According to an alternative form of the present invention, the content of optionally modified clay ranges from 0.2% to 10% by mass, preferably from 0.5% to 5% by mass, based on the mass of the composition. These percentages are expressed as active substances.

[0198] Optionally modified silica Fumed silica with a preferably hydrophobized surface and a particle size advantageously less than 1 μm may also be mentioned. In fact, it is possible to chemically modify the silica surface by a chemical reaction that reduces the number of silanol groups present on the silica surface. It is particularly possible to replace the silanol groups with hydrophobic groups, and then hydrophobic silica is obtained. The hydrophobic group may be as follows: - Trimethylsiloxyl group, which is obtained in particular by treating fumed silica in the presence of hexamethyldisilazane. Silica treated in this way is known as Silica Silylate according to CTFA (6th edition, 1995). These are sold, for example, under the reference symbol Aerosil R812® from Degussa and under the reference symbol Cab-O-Sil TS-530® from Cabot. - Dimethylsilyloxyl or polydimethylsiloxane groups, which are obtained in particular by treating fumed silica in the presence of polydimethylsiloxane or dimethyldichlorosilane. Silica treated in this way is known as dimethylsilylated silica according to CTFA (6th edition, 1995). These are sold, for example, under the reference symbols Aerosil R972® and Aerosil R974® from Degussa and under Cab-O-Sil TS-610® and Cab-O-Sil TS-720® from Cabot.

[0199] Hydrophobic fumed silica can in particular have a particle size in the nanometer to micrometer range, for example, a particle size in the range of about 5 - 200 nm.

[0200] The composition according to the invention may also contain at least silica aerogel particles.

[0201] Silica aerogel is a porous material obtained by replacing (drying) the liquid component of silica gel with air.

[0202] Silica aerogels are generally synthesized by the sol-gel method in a liquid medium and then dried, usually by extraction with a supercritical fluid (the most commonly used is supercritical CO2). This type of drying makes it possible to avoid pore and material shrinkage. The sol-gel method and various drying operations are described in detail in Brinker C.J. and Scherer G.W., Sol-Gel Science, New York, Academic Press, 1990.

[0203] Hydrophobic silica aerogel particles suitable for the practice of the present invention have a specific surface area (S M ) per unit mass in the range of 500 to 1500 m 2 / g, preferably in the range of 600 to 1200 m 2 / g, more preferably in the range of 600 to 800 m 2 / g. The size (D[0.5]) expressed as the volume median diameter is in the range of 1 to 1500 μm, more preferably in the range of 1 to 1000 μm, preferably 1 to 100 μm, particularly 1 to 30 μm, more preferably 5 to 25 μm, even more preferably 5 to 20 μm, and even more preferably in the range of 5 to 15 μm.

[0204] According to an advantageous embodiment, the hydrophobic silica aerogel particles used in the present invention have a specific surface area (S M ) per unit mass in the range of 600 to 800 m 2 / g, and the size (D[0.5]) expressed as the volume median diameter is in the range of 5 to 20 μm, even more preferably in the range of 5 to 15 μm.

[0205] The specific surface area per unit mass can be determined by the nitrogen absorption method, which is described in The Journal of the American Chemical Society, Vol. 60, page 309, February 1938 and is known as the BET (Brunauer-Emmett-Teller) method corresponding to the international standard ISO 5794 / 1 (Annex D). The BET specific surface area corresponds to the specific surface area of the entire particles of interest.

[0206] The size of the silica aerogel particles can be measured by static light scattering using a commercially available particle size analyzer such as a MasterSizer 2000 device from Malvern. The data is processed based on Mie scattering theory. This theory corresponds to isotropic particles and, in the case of non-spherical particles, makes it possible to determine the "effective" particle size. This theory is described in particular in the publication by Van de Hulst, H.C., Light Scattering by Small Particles, Chapters 9 and 10, Wiley, New York, 1957.

[0207] According to a preferred embodiment, the hydrophobic silica aerogel particles used in the present invention have a specific surface area S per unit volume V of 5 to 60 m 2 / cm 3 in the range, preferably 10 to 50 m 2 / cm 3 in the range, and even more preferably 15 to 40 m 2 / cm 3 in the range.

[0208] The aerogel that can be used according to the present invention is an aerogel of hydrophobic silica, preferably an aerogel of silylated silica (INCI name: Silica Silylate).

[0209] Regarding the preparation of hydrophobic silica aerogel particles surface-modified by silylation, reference may be made to the document of U.S. Patent No. 7,470,725.

[0210] Preferably, hydrophobic silica aerogel particles surface-modified with trimethylsilyl groups can be used.

[0211] As the hydrophobic silica aerogel that can be used in the present invention, for example, an aerogel sold under the name of VM-2260 (INCI name: Silica Silylate) by Dow Corning can be mentioned. The average size of these particles is about 1000 microns, and the specific surface area per unit mass is in the range of 600 to 800 m 2 / g.

[0212] Aerogels sold by Cabot under the reference symbols of Aerogel TLD 201, Aerogel OGD 201, Aerogel TLD 203, Enova® Aerogel MT 1100, and Enova Aerogel MT 1200 can also be mentioned.

[0213] Preferably, it is an aerogel sold under the name of VM-2270 (INCI name: Silica Silylate) by Dow Corning. The particles have an average diameter in the range of 5 to 15 microns and a specific surface area per unit mass in the range of 600 to 800 m 2 / g, and this aerogel is used.

[0214] Preferably, when the composition contains at least one thickener selected from optionally modified silica, this silica is selected from hydrophobic silica aerogel particles.

[0215] According to an alternative form of the present invention, the content of optionally modified silica is in the range of 0.5% to 15% by mass, preferably in the range of 1% to 7% by mass, based on the mass of the present composition. These values are expressed as the mass of the active substance.

[0216] Preferably, the mineral thickener is selected from organophilic clays, particularly modified hectorite; hydrophobized fumed silica; hydrophobic silica aerogel; or mixtures thereof. More specifically, it is selected from at least one organophilic modified clay or at least one hydrophobized modified silica, particularly hydrophobic silica aerogel.

[0217] Optional additive The composition may contain at least one optional additive selected from, for example, film-forming agents; antioxidants; preservatives; fragrances; flavoring agents; neutralizing agents; emollient agents; organic thickeners; for example, linear or branched dextrin esters; film-forming aids; humectants; vitamins; and mixtures thereof.

[0218] Needless to say, those skilled in the art will carefully select any additional additives and / or their amounts so that the advantageous properties of the composition according to the present invention are not adversely affected or are substantially not adversely affected by the intended addition.

[0219] The following examples serve to illustrate the present invention without limiting the scope of the present invention.

Example

[0237] Measurement of tackiness: A sufficient amount of the composition is sampled and then crushed in a stainless-steel container with a depth of 100 microns.

[0238] Then, the composition is flattened before measurement.

[0239] This container is left to dry at ambient temperature for 1 hour.

[0240] The apparatus used is a TAXT2i Texture Analyzer. The clamp attached to this apparatus holds an AU4G cylinder with a diameter of 6 mm, and at its end, a tip (with the same diameter and a thickness of 2 mm) formed of a smooth beige material imitating skin is adhered.

[0241] Between each measurement, this tip is washed with ethanol. Measurements are never made at the same location in this sample.
