Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a composition that contains a large amount of water but is stable and can impart a comfortable texture, preferably a cosmetic composition, more preferably a skin cosmetic composition.

Background Art

[0002] The imparting of a comfortable texture to the skin is one of the important features of cosmetics, especially skin care cosmetics.

[0003] In particular, a refreshing feeling such as a feeling that water splashes during application (for example, caused by a texture conversion corresponding to a change in the physical properties of the composition, such as the collapse of the structure of the composition from which liquid can flow out), and a non-sticky feeling after application are still required for customer satisfaction during use.

[0004] It should be noted that compositions that are unstable and easily cause the collapse of the structure of the composition often bring a comfortable texture. This means that it is difficult to simultaneously bring both a comfortable feeling during use and good stability.

[0005] So far, several technologies related to O / W type compositions that impart improved texture and stability have been reported. For example, WO2024 / 106520 discloses a stable composition that can bring about texture conversion.

[0006] However, sufficient investigations have not yet been conducted on W / O type compositions that can be stable and bring about a refreshing feeling during application and a reduction in the sticky feeling or a non-sticky feeling after application.

[0007] In addition, the formulation of environmentally compatible cosmetics designed and developed in consideration of environmental problems has become a major goal in aiming to meet global challenges.

[0008] Therefore, it is essential to propose more sustainable compositions, preparation methods, and ingredients to address these environmental problems.

[0009] In this context, it is important to develop novel cosmetic compositions with a better carbon footprint, particularly by promoting the use of renewable raw materials and / or materials with a good index of naturalness and / or materials of natural origin.

Paint Technol, Vol. 39, p. 105 (1967) [Non-Patent Document 2] Walter Noll, Chemistry and Technology of Silicones (1968), Academic Press [Overview of the Initiative] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]

[0012] It has already been suggested that increasing the amount of water in a W / O type composition may provide a refreshing sensation, such as a feeling of water splashing, during application.

[0013] However, the large amount of water in W / O type compositions leads to a high proportion of water droplets, which tend to be larger and more closely packed together. Therefore, in these compositions, there is an increased risk of droplet aggregation, which leads to the destabilization of the composition.

[0014] The object of the present invention is to provide a stable composition that, despite containing a large amount of water, can provide a refreshing feeling along with reduced stickiness or a non-sticky feeling. [Means for solving the problem]

[0029] The present invention also relates to a cosmetic method for treating keratinous substances such as skin, comprising the step of applying a composition according to the present invention to the keratinous substance. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0030] As a result of diligent research, the inventors have discovered that it is possible to provide a stable composition that, despite containing a large amount of water, can provide a refreshing feeling along with reduced stickiness or a non-sticky feel.

[0031] Therefore, one aspect of the present invention is: (a1) At least one first polyglyceryl fatty acid ester having an HLB value of 4 or less, (a2) At least one second polyglyceryl fatty acid ester having an HLB value greater than 4, (b) at least one type of wax, (c) at least one hydrophilic thickener selected from nonionic polysaccharides, (d) at least one type of oil, (e) water and A composition comprising, (e) The amount of water is more than 50% by mass, preferably more than 55% by mass, and more preferably more than 60% by mass, based on the total mass of the composition. The composition is either silicone-free or contains less than 1% by mass, preferably less than 0.5% by mass, and more preferably less than 0.1% by mass, of the total mass of the composition.

[0032] The composition according to the present invention contains a large amount of water but is stable, and can provide a refreshing sensation such as a watery feeling, as well as a reduced or non-sticky feeling.

[0033] The composition according to the present invention is stable immediately after preparation and remains stable for a long period of time after preparation, even under temperature changes from cold to high temperatures. Therefore, the composition according to the present invention is stable over time and can be stored for a long period of time, even under temperature changes that occur in summer.

[0034] The composition according to the present invention can preferably provide a refreshing sensation, such as a feeling of water beading on it, during application.

[0035] The compositions according to the present invention can induce a texture transformation during application, preferably in the initial stages of application. Texture transformation, as used herein, refers to a change in texture from a gel or cream to a liquid, corresponding to a change in the physical properties of the composition, such as a breakdown of the composition's structure that allows liquid to leak out of the composition. Texture transformation can provide a cooling sensation.

[0036] The composition according to the present invention can also preferably reduce the sticky feeling or provide a non-sticky feel after application.

[0037] In this specification, the term "stickiness" refers to a property that gives the skin an oily feel.

[0038] The composition according to the present invention comprises (d) an oil and (b) a wax having properties similar to those of the oil, and the composition may produce an oily or sticky feel after application.

[0039] However, the compositions according to the present invention contain (d) oil and (b) wax, but can eliminate or reduce the oily or sticky feeling.

[0040] Therefore, the composition according to the present invention can provide a comfortable texture, particularly an excellent feel, during and after application of the composition.

[0041] In addition, the compositions according to the present invention contain a very limited amount of silicone or do not contain any silicone at all. Therefore, the compositions according to the present invention are environmentally friendly.

[0256] The present invention will be described in more detail by reference to examples, but this should not be interpreted as limiting the scope of the invention.

[0257] (Examples 1-2 and Comparative Examples 1-6) [Preparation] The following compositions in the form of W / O emulsions, as shown in Examples 1-2 and Comparative Examples 1-6 in Table 1, were prepared by mixing the components shown in Table 1 as follows. (1) Mix the components of section A in Table 1 at 80-90°C to form a homogeneous mixture of phase A. (2) Mix the components of stage B in Table 1 at 80-90°C to form a homogeneous mixture of phase B. (3) Using a propeller mixer, gradually add a homogeneous mixture of phase B to a homogeneous mixture of phase A to form a homogeneous phase (phases A and B), and (4) Cool the homogeneous phase to room temperature.

[0258] The numerical values ​​for the amounts of the components shown in Table 1 are all based on "mass %" as active ingredients.

[0259] [Table 1A]

[0260] [Table 1B]

[0261] [evaluation] (Refreshing feeling) Five expert judges evaluated the "water-repellent sensation" of the compositions from Examples 1-2 and Comparative Examples 1-6 during application. Each judge took a sample of each composition and applied it in a circular motion to their own skin. The judges evaluated the water-repellent sensation during application, rating it from 1 (poor) to 5 (very good), and then classified the compositions into the following four categories based on the average rating. Excellent: 5.0-4.0 (A clear sensation of water repelling is felt during the initial stages of application) Good: 3.9~3.0 (A sensation of water repelling can be felt during the initial stages of application) Poor: 2.9~2.0 (The sensation of water repelling is not easily felt during the initial stages of application) Extremely poor: 1.9~1.0 (No sensation of water repelling is felt at all during the initial stages of application)

[0262] The results are shown in Table 1.

[0263] (Non-sticky feel) Five expert evaluators assessed the "non-sticky feel" of the compositions from Examples 1-2 and Comparative Examples 1-6 after application. Each evaluator took a sample of each composition, applied it to their own skin, and evaluated the non-sticky feel after application, rating it from 1 (poor) to 5 (very good). They then classified the compositions into the following four categories based on the average of the ratings. Excellent: 5.0-4.0 (No stickiness felt at all after application) Good: 3.9~3.0 (Less sticky feeling after application) Defective: 2.9~2.0 (A sticky feeling is felt after application) Extremely poor: 1.9~1.0 (A noticeable stickiness is felt after application)

[0264] The results are shown in Table 1.

[0265] (stability) The compositions from Examples 1-2 and Comparative Examples 1-6 were filled into glass bottles and kept for two months under the following temperature change cycles: 4°C, 25°C, 37°C, and 45°C.

[0266] Temperature change cycle: a) Hold the composition at 4°C for 6 hours. b) Increase the temperature of the composition to 25°C over a period of 6 hours. c) Increase the temperature of the composition to 37°C over a period of 6 hours. d) Increase the temperature of the composition to 45°C over a period of 6 hours, and e) Reduce the temperature of the composition to 4°C.

[0267] Ten cycles were performed, and defects in the compositions were evaluated between each cycle. Specifically, each composition was examined in terms of the degree of change in its appearance (e.g., syneresis, separation, and cream separation), color (e.g., yellowing and browning), and odor (e.g., malodor), and evaluated according to the following criteria. Excellent condition: Almost the same as when it was manufactured. Good: Little to no change was observed in appearance, color, or smell. Defective: Clear changes were observed in appearance, color, and smell. Extremely poor: Significant changes in appearance, color, and odor were observed.

[0268] The results are shown in Table 1.

[0269] (summary) As is evident from Table 1, the compositions according to the present invention (Examples 1-2) can provide excellent cosmetic effects in terms of texture transformation during application, non-sticky feel after application, and stability under temperature changes for two months, which may be due to the combination of components (a1), (a2), (b), and (c) in the presence of components (d) and (e). Example 2 shows that the addition of component (f) can further improve the non-sticky feel after application. Therefore, the compositions according to the present invention can provide, in particular, an excellent feel and long-term stability even under temperature changes.

[0270] On the other hand, the composition according to Comparative Example 1, which did not contain component (a2) (the second polyglyceryl fatty acid ester), showed poor stability.

[0271] The composition according to Comparative Example 2, which did not contain component (a1) (the first polyglyceryl fatty acid ester), also showed poor stability.

[0272] The composition according to Comparative Example 3, which did not contain component (b) (wax), also showed poor stability.

[0273] The compositions of Comparative Examples 4 and 5, which did not contain component (c) (a hydrophilic thickener selected from nonionic polysaccharides), also showed poor stability. Note that xanthan gum has a carboxyl group and is therefore an anionic polysaccharide.

[0274] The composition of Comparative Example 6, which contained only a small amount of water, failed to provide superior cosmetic effects in terms of texture transformation during application, non-sticky feel after application, and stability under temperature changes for two months.
