Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a water-in-oil emulsion sunscreen cosmetic, and more specifically to a water-in-oil emulsion sunscreen cosmetic which has the unprecedented property of improving its ultraviolet protection effect by contacting with water, sweat, etc., compared to immediately after application, and which is also excellent in feel and can be easily washed off. [Background technology]

[0002] Protecting the skin from the harmful effects of ultraviolet rays is one of the important issues in skin care and body care, and various UV care cosmetics have been developed to minimize the adverse effects of ultraviolet rays on the skin. Sunscreen cosmetics, which are one type of UV care cosmetics, contain ultraviolet absorbing agents and ultraviolet scattering agents to block UVA and UVB rays from reaching the skin, thereby protecting the skin from the harmful effects of ultraviolet rays (Non-Patent Document 1). Recently, it has been considered important to protect the skin from ultraviolet rays not only in the harsh ultraviolet conditions of outdoor activities such as swimming in pools and the sea in summer and skiing in winter, but also in everyday life, and there is a demand for ordinary skin care cosmetics that have ultraviolet protection effects.

[0003] However, when a sunscreen cosmetic applied to the skin comes into contact with water or sweat, the ultraviolet absorbing agent and the ultraviolet scattering agent flow out of the cosmetic, and the ultraviolet protection effect is inevitably reduced. Therefore, in order to prevent the reduction in the ultraviolet protection effect, various attempts have been made to improve the water resistance and film strength of the sunscreen cosmetic.

[0004] For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a composition comprising a water-swellable clay mineral, a quaternary ammonium salt type cationic surfactant, a polyoxyalkylene-modified organopolysiloxane, an aqueous phase, and a compound represented by the general formula R n SiO (4-n) / 2 It has been proposed that the incorporation of an organic silicone resin improves water resistance and water repellency and allows an ultraviolet absorbing agent to be retained on the skin for a long period of time. Furthermore, Patent Document 2 discloses a water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic containing an ultraviolet protection agent, an organically modified clay mineral, a volatile component, a spherical resin powder, and a coating agent, and proposes that the incorporation of the coating agent prevents the powder from rubbing off and secondary adhesion to clothing.

[0005] However, since cosmetics applied to the skin are exposed to various moisture from inside and outside the coating film, such as moisture from the external environment, such as sweat secreted from the skin and seawater, it was difficult to completely prevent the outflow of ultraviolet absorbing agents, ultraviolet scattering agents, etc., even if a large amount of resin or coating agent was blended to impart water resistance. Moreover, even if the outflow of ultraviolet absorbing agents, etc. could be completely prevented, it was thought that the ultraviolet protection effect obtained would not exceed that immediately after application.

[0006] If a cosmetic composition contains a high amount of silicone resin or film-forming agent, the cosmetic composition will have a strong film-like feel when applied, impairing usability. In addition, the cosmetic composition may not spread well when applied, and may not be easily removed with ordinary detergents or soaps, making it necessary to use special cleansing agents, which may cause problems other than the UV protection effect.

[0008] [Non-Patent Document 1] "New Cosmetics Science", 2nd edition, edited by Takeo Mitsui, published by Nanzando in 2001, pp. 497-504 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0009] The present invention is based on the discovery, in the course of research into developing a sunscreen cosmetic having a strong ultraviolet protection effect, of a phenomenon in which the ultraviolet protection effect is not reduced but rather improved upon contact with water, sweat, etc., and aims to provide a sunscreen cosmetic having an unprecedented, innovative property of improving its ultraviolet protection effect upon contact with moisture. [Means for solving the problem]

[0010] As a result of extensive investigations aimed at solving the above-mentioned problems, the inventors have discovered that a sunscreen cosmetic composition having the desired novel properties can be obtained by blending an organically modified clay mineral and an oil phase thickener in a specified mass ratio with respect to a non-volatile liquid oil component excluding silicone oil, and have thus completed the present invention.

[0011] That is, the present invention provides: (A) 6 to 40 mass% of an ultraviolet protection agent, (B) Organically modified clay minerals, (C) an oil phase thickener other than (B), and (D) Contains a silicone surfactant with an HLB value of less than 8; The present invention provides a water-in-oil emulsion sunscreen cosmetic in which the ratio of [total amount of component (B) and component (C)] / [total amount of non-volatile liquid oil other than (E) silicone oil] is 0.04 or more and less than 0.68. Effect of the Invention

[0012] By adopting the above-mentioned configuration, the present invention achieves a significantly improved UV protection effect after contact with water, sweat, etc., compared to immediately after application of the cosmetic to the skin. In other words, the water-in-oil emulsion sunscreen cosmetic of the present invention is an innovative sunscreen cosmetic having properties that are the exact opposite of conventional common sense, that is, the UV protection effect is improved by contact with moisture, which was believed to be a cause of deterioration in the effectiveness of conventional sunscreen cosmetics.

[0013] Furthermore, the sunscreen cosmetic of the present invention exerts an excellent ultraviolet protection effect without a large amount of silicone resin, film-forming agent, etc., and therefore does not feel like a coating, spreads well when used (applied), and can be easily removed with a general-purpose detergent or soap. In other words, the present invention can provide a water-in-oil emulsion sunscreen cosmetic that not only has a unique ultraviolet protection effect, but also has excellent usability and cleansability. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0014] As described above, the water-in-oil emulsion sunscreen cosmetic of the present invention is characterized by containing (A) 6 to 40 mass % of an ultraviolet protection agent, (B) an organically modified clay mineral, (C) an oil phase thickener other than (B), and (D) a silicone surfactant having an HLB value of less than 8, and the ratio of [total amount of components (B) and (C)] / [total amount of non-volatile liquid oils other than (E) silicone oil] is 0.04 or more and less than 0.68. Each component constituting the sunscreen cosmetic of the present invention will be described in detail below.

[0015] <(A) UV protection agent> The ultraviolet protection agent (A) (hereinafter, may be simply referred to as "component (A)") incorporated in the water-in-oil emulsion sunscreen cosmetic composition of the present invention comprises at least one agent selected from ultraviolet absorbers and ultraviolet scattering agents, and those typically incorporated in sunscreen cosmetics can be used.

[0016] The ultraviolet absorber used in the present invention is not particularly limited, but specific examples include organic ultraviolet absorbers such as ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate, octocrylene, dimethicodethylbenzalmalonate, polysilicon-15, t-butylmethoxydibenzoylmethane, ethylhexyl triazone, diethylaminohydroxybenzoylhexyl benzoate, bisethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine, oxybenzone-3, methylenebisbenzotriazolyltetramethylbutylphenol, phenylbenzimidazolesulfonic acid, homosalate, and ethylhexyl salicylate.

[0017] The ultraviolet scattering agent used in the present invention is not particularly limited, but specific examples include fine particle metal oxides such as zinc oxide, titanium oxide, iron oxide, cerium oxide, and tungsten oxide.

[0018] The ultraviolet scattering agent may be untreated or may have been subjected to various hydrophobic surface treatments, but is preferably surface-treated, and examples of the hydrophobic surface treatments that can be used include those commonly used in the field of cosmetics, such as silicones such as dimethicone and alkyl-modified silicone, alkoxysilanes such as octyltriethoxysilane, dextrin fatty acid esters such as dextrin palmitate, and fatty acids such as stearic acid. Among these, ultraviolet scattering agents surface-treated with alkoxysilanes such as octyltriethoxysilane are particularly preferred because of their good washability.

[0019] The blending amount of component (A) is 6 to 40% by mass, and more preferably 7 to 30% by mass, based on the total amount of the water-in-oil emulsion sunscreen cosmetic. If the blending amount of component (A) is less than 6% by mass, it is difficult to obtain a sufficient ultraviolet protection effect, and even if it is blended in more than 40% by mass, an increase in ultraviolet protection effect commensurate with the blending amount cannot be expected, and stability is deteriorated, which is not preferable. The ultraviolet protection agent (component (A)) in the present invention is at least one selected from an ultraviolet absorber and an ultraviolet scattering agent, and includes an embodiment consisting of only an ultraviolet absorber, an embodiment consisting of only an ultraviolet scattering agent, and an embodiment containing both an ultraviolet absorber and an ultraviolet scattering agent. The above numerical ranges represent the total amount of the ultraviolet absorbing agent and the ultraviolet scattering agent, and it is particularly preferable that the amount of the ultraviolet absorbing agent is 6 mass % or more.

[0020] <(B) Organically modified clay minerals> The (B) organically modified clay mineral (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as "component (B)") is a type of colloidal hydrous aluminum silicate having a three-layer structure, and a clay mineral represented by the following general formula (1) modified with a quaternary ammonium salt-type cationic surfactant can be used. (X,Y)2―3 (Si,Al)O 10 (OH)2Z 1 / 3 nH2O (1) (However, X=Al,Fe(III),Mn(III),Cr(III), Y=Mg,Fe(II),Ni,Zn,Li, Z=K,Na,Ca)

[0021] Specifically, it can be obtained by treating clay minerals such as natural or synthetic (in this case, the (OH) group in the formula is replaced with fluorine) montmorillonite group (commercially available products include Veegum, Kunipia, Laponite, etc.) such as montmorillonite, saponite, hectorite, etc., and synthetic mica known as sodium silicic mica or sodium or lithium taeniolite (commercially available product is Dimonite: Topy Industries, Ltd., etc.) with a quaternary ammonium salt type cationic surfactant.

[0022] The quaternary ammonium salt cationic surfactant used here is represented by the following general formula (2). [ka] (In the formula, R 1 is an alkyl group or a benzyl group having 10 to 22 carbon atoms, R 2 is a methyl group or an alkyl group having 10 to 22 carbon atoms, R 3 and R 4 represents an alkyl group or a hydroxyalkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms, and X represents a halogen atom or a methyl sulfate residue.

[0023] Examples of such quaternary ammonium salt type cationic surfactants include dodecyl trimethyl ammonium chloride, myristyl trimethyl ammonium chloride, cetyl trimethyl ammonium chloride, stearyl trimethyl ammonium chloride, arachyl trimethyl ammonium chloride, behenyl trimethyl ammonium chloride, myristyl dimethyl ethyl ammonium chloride, cetyl dimethyl ethyl ammonium chloride, stearyl dimethyl ethyl ammonium chloride, arachyl dimethyl ethyl ammonium chloride, behenyl dimethyl ethyl ammonium chloride, myristyl diethyl methyl ammonium chloride, cetyl diethyl methyl ammonium chloride, ammonium chloride, stearyl diethylmethyl ammonium chloride, arachyl diethylmethyl ammonium chloride, behenyl diethylmethyl ammonium chloride, benzyl dimethyl myristyl ammonium chloride, benzyl dimethyl cetyl ammonium chloride, benzyl dimethyl stearyl ammonium chloride, benzyl dimethyl behenyl ammonium chloride, benzyl methyl ethyl cetyl ammonium chloride, benzyl methyl ethyl stearyl ammonium chloride, dibehenyl dihydroxyethyl ammonium chloride, and the corresponding bromides, and further dipalmityl propyl ethyl ammonium methyl sulfate, etc. In carrying out the present invention, one or more of these may be arbitrarily selected.

[0024] Representative examples of the (B) component include dimethyl distearammonium hectorite (disteardimonium hectorite), dimethyl alkyl ammonium hectorite, benzyl dimethyl stearyl ammonium hectorite, and magnesium aluminum silicate treated with distearyl dimethyl ammonium chloride. Among these, dimethyl distearammonium hectorite is particularly preferred. As commercially available products, Benton 27 (benzyl dimethyl stearyl ammonium chloride-treated hectorite: manufactured by Elementis Japan Co., Ltd.) and Benton 38 (distearyl dimethyl ammonium chloride-treated hectorite: manufactured by Elementis Japan Co., Ltd.) are preferred.

[0025] The blending amount of component (B) is 0.1 to 3 mass% based on the total amount of the water-in-oil emulsion sunscreen cosmetic, more preferably 0.2 to 2 mass%, and even more preferably 0.4 to 1 mass%. If the blending amount of component (B) is less than 0.1 mass%, it is difficult to obtain sufficient stability, and if it is blended in more than 3 mass%, it becomes highly viscous and difficult to spread on the skin, which is undesirable from the viewpoint of usability.

[0026] <(C) Oil phase thickener> The (C) oil phase thickener (hereinafter, sometimes simply referred to as "component (C)") is capable of adjusting the viscosity of the oil phase in addition to the (B) component. For example, dextrin fatty acid esters, sucrose fatty acid esters, fatty acids or salts thereof, etc. are preferred, and it is particularly preferred to combine two or more types selected from these. The dextrin fatty acid ester is an ester of dextrin or reduced dextrin with a higher fatty acid, and can be used without any particular limitation as long as it is one that is generally used in cosmetics. It is preferable to use dextrin or reduced dextrin with an average degree of glycopolymerization of 3 to 100. In addition, it is preferable to use a saturated fatty acid having 8 to 22 carbon atoms as the constituent fatty acid of the dextrin fatty acid ester. Specific examples include dextrin palmitate, dextrin oleate, dextrin stearate, dextrin myristate, and dextrin (palmitate / 2-ethylhexanoate).

[0027] The sucrose fatty acid ester that can be preferably used is one in which the fatty acid is linear or branched, saturated or unsaturated, and has a carbon number of 12 to 22. Specific examples include sucrose caprylate, sucrose caprate, sucrose laurate, sucrose myristic acid, sucrose palmitate, sucrose stearate, sucrose oleate, and sucrose erucate.

[0029] The blending amount of component (C) is 0.1 to 15% by mass, more preferably 0.2 to 10% by mass, and even more preferably 0.4 to 8% by mass, based on the total amount of the water-in-oil emulsion sunscreen cosmetic. If the blending amount of component (C) is less than 0.1% by mass, it is difficult to obtain sufficient stability, whereas if it is blended in an amount exceeding 15% by mass, the viscosity becomes high, which is undesirable from the viewpoint of usability, such as making it difficult to spread on the skin.

[0030] <(D) Silicone surfactants with HLB less than 8> The (D) silicone-based surfactant (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as "component (D)") is not particularly limited as long as it has a silicone skeleton (polysiloxane structure) and an HLB value of less than 8. For example, it is preferable to use polyoxyalkylene-modified silicones, polyoxyalkylene-alkyl co-modified silicones, polyglycerin-modified silicones, and / or polyglycerin-alkyl co-modified silicones, and among these, polyoxyalkylene-modified silicones and polyoxyalkylene-alkyl-modified silicones are more preferable. The polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone used in the present invention has a linear or branched organopolysiloxane as the main skeleton and has polyoxyalkylene groups in the side chains, and examples thereof include those represented by the following general formula (3).

[0031] [ka] In general formula (3), R is an alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms or a phenyl group (preferably a methyl group), R' is hydrogen or an alkyl group having 1 to 12 carbon atoms (preferably a hydrogen or a methyl group), q is 1 to 50 (preferably 3), m is 1 to 100, n and x are each 1 to 50, and y is 0 to 50. One suitable example of the polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone is KF-6017 (PEG-10 dimethicone, manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd.).

[0032] In the above formula (3), the organopolysiloxane main skeleton may have another organopolysiloxane chain in the side chain. One suitable example of such a polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone is KF-6028 (PEG-9 polydimethylsiloxyethyl dimethicone, manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd.).

[0033] The polyoxyalkylene alkyl-modified silicone used in the present invention has a linear or branched organopolysiloxane as the main skeleton, with polyoxyalkylene groups and alkyl groups having 4 or more carbon atoms in the side chains, and examples thereof include those represented by the following general formula (4).

One suitable example of the polyoxyalkylene / alkyl co-modified silicone is ABIL EM90 (cetyl PEG / PPG-10 / 1 dimethicone, manufactured by Evonik Goldschmidt).

[0035] In the above general formula (4), the organopolysiloxane main skeleton may have another organopolysiloxane chain on the side chain. One suitable example of such a polyoxyalkylene-alkyl-modified silicone is KF-6038 (lauryl PEG-9 polydimethylsiloxyethyl dimethicone, manufactured by Shin-Etsu Silicones).

[0036] An example of the polyglycerin-modified silicone is a linear polyglycerin-modified silicone (=polyglycerin having silicone terminals) represented by the following formula (5). [ka] [In the formula, R1 represents a linear or branched alkyl group having 1 to 12 carbon atoms or a phenyl group, R2 represents an alkylene group having 2 to 11 carbon atoms, p is 10 to 120, and q is 1 to 11.] Specific examples include bisbutyldimethicone polyglyceryl-3, etc. Polyglycerin / alkyl-modified silicones have a straight-chain or branched-chain organopolysiloxane main skeleton with polyglycerin groups and alkyl groups with 4 or more carbon atoms on the side chains, and an example is KF-6105 (lauryl polyglyceryl-3 polydimethylsiloxyethyl dimethicone, manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd.).

[0037] The blending amount of component (D) is 0.1 to 8 mass%, more preferably 0.2 to 7 mass%, and even more preferably 0.4 to 5 mass%, based on the total amount of the water-in-oil emulsion sunscreen cosmetic. If the blending amount of component (D) is less than 0.1 mass%, it is difficult to obtain sufficient stability, whereas if it is blended in more than 8 mass%, it becomes highly viscous and difficult to spread on the skin, which is undesirable from the viewpoint of usability.

[0043] <Ratio of [total amount of component (B) and component (C)] / [total amount of non-volatile liquid oil other than (E) silicone oil]> In the water-in-oil emulsion sunscreen cosmetic of the present invention, it is necessary that the total amount of the above-mentioned components (B) and (C), which are involved in adjusting the viscosity of the oil phase, has a predetermined ratio relative to the total amount of the non-volatile liquid oil component (E) excluding silicone oil. That is, the ratio of [total amount of components (B) and (C)] / [total amount of non-volatile liquid oil other than silicone oil (E)] (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "oil phase thickener ratio") must be 0.04 or more and less than 0.68, and more preferably 0.045 or more and less than 0.5. If the ratio is less than 0.04 or 0.68 or more, no improvement in UV protection effect due to contact with moisture is observed.

EXAMPLES

[0054] The present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to specific examples, but the present invention is not limited to the following examples. In the following examples, the blending amounts are expressed in mass % unless otherwise specified.

[0055] (Examples 1 to 5 and Comparative Examples 1 to 2) The water-in-oil emulsion sunscreen cosmetic composition having the composition shown in Table 1 below was prepared by heating the oily components to dissolve them and dispersing the powder, adding a separately dissolved aqueous phase, and emulsifying by stirring. The ratio of oil phase thickener ratio = [total amount of components (B) and (C)] / [total amount of non-volatile liquid oil other than (E) silicone oil] was calculated from the blending amounts of the corresponding components.

[0056] Measurement of UV protection effect The cosmetic material (sample) of each example was applied at 2 mg / cm on a measurement plate (S plate) (5 x 5 cm V-groove PMMA plate, SPFMASTER-PA01). 2 The amount of the solution was dropped onto the skin, applied with a finger for 60 seconds, and then dried for 15 minutes. The absorbance was then measured using a Hitachi U-3500 self-recording spectrophotometer. Glycerin, which does not absorb ultraviolet light, was used as a control, and the absorbance (Abs) was calculated using the following formula. Abs = -log(T / To) T: transmittance of sample, To: transmittance of glycerin The plate was thoroughly immersed in water with a hardness of 50 to 500 and stirred in the water for 30 minutes (300 rpm with a 3-1 motor). After that, it was dried for about 15 to 30 minutes until all water droplets on the surface disappeared, and the absorbance was measured again. The Abs change rate (following formula) was calculated as the improvement effect of UV protection ability from the integrated Abs value before and after the water bath. UV protection ability improvement effect: Abs change rate (%) = (accumulated Abs value after water bath) / (accumulated Abs value before water bath) x 100

[0057] In the present invention, when the Abs change rate exceeds 100(%), it is defined that the ultraviolet protection effect is improved.

[0058] [Table 1]

[0059] As shown in Table 1, even when the blending amounts of (A) UV protection agent and (F) oil-soluble coating agent were almost the same, when the oil phase thickener ratio was less than 0.04 due to differences in the blending amounts of (B), (C), or (E) non-volatile liquid oil other than silicone oil (Comparative Examples 1 to 4), the UV protection effect decreased after water bathing. In contrast, when the oil phase thickener ratio was within the range of 0.04 or more and less than 0.68 (Examples 1 to 9), the UV protection effect after water bathing increased by up to about 28% compared to before water bathing (Example 1).

[0060] (Example 10 and Comparative Example 5) Water-in-oil type emulsion sunscreen cosmetics having the compositions shown in Table 2 below were prepared, and the rate of change in absorbance before and after water bathing was determined in the same manner as above. The ratio of coating agent ratio = [(F) total amount of components] / [(E) total amount of non-volatile liquid oils other than silicone oil] was calculated from the blending amounts of the corresponding components.

[0061] [Table 2]

[0062] As shown in Table 2, in Comparative Example 5, in which the oil phase thickener ratio was 0.68 or more due to the difference in the amount of non-volatile liquid oil, the UV protection effect decreased after water bathing. In contrast, in Example 10, in which the ratio was within the range of the present invention, the UV protection effect after water bathing was improved compared to before water bathing. In addition, in Comparative Example 5, since the coating agent ratio was 0.5 or more, there was a film-like feeling when applied and the cleanability was also poor.

[0063] (Examples 11 to 18 and Comparative Example 6) Water-in-oil type emulsion sunscreen cosmetics having the compositions shown in Tables 3 and 4 below were prepared, and the rate of change in absorbance before and after water bathing was determined in the same manner as above. [Table 3]

[0064] [Table 4]

[0065] As shown in Tables 3 and 4, even when the type of oil phase thickener (component (C)) was changed, a higher UV protection effect was achieved after water bathing than before water bathing (Examples 11 to 18). On the other hand, when component (C) was not blended, the UV protection effect decreased after water bathing (Comparative Example 6).

[0066] (Examples 19 to 23 and Comparative Examples 7 to 12) Water-in-oil type emulsion sunscreen cosmetics having the compositions shown in Tables 5 and 6 below were prepared, and the rate of change in absorbance before and after water bathing was determined in the same manner as above.

[0067] [Table 5]

[0068] [Table 6]

[0069] As shown in Tables 5 and 6, when a surfactant other than a silicone surfactant was used (Comparative Examples 7, 10 to 12) or when a silicone surfactant with an HLB of 8 or more was used (Comparative Examples 8 and 9), the UV protection effect decreased after bathing in water. In contrast, when a silicone surfactant with an HLB of less than 8 was used, the UV protection effect after bathing in water was improved compared to before bathing in water.

[0070] (Examples 24 to 27) Water-in-oil type emulsion sunscreen cosmetics having the compositions shown in Table 7 below were prepared, and the rate of change in absorbance before and after water bathing was determined in the same manner as above.

[0071] [Table 7]

[0072] As shown in Table 7, even when the blending amounts of components (C) and (E) were changed, when the oil phase thickener ratio was within the range of the present invention, the UV protection effect after water bathing was improved compared to before water bathing. In these examples, the coating agent ratio was also less than 0.5, so that the usability and cleanability were also excellent.

[0073] (Example 28) Water-in-oil type emulsion sunscreen cosmetics having the compositions shown in Table 8 below were prepared, and the rate of change in absorbance before and after water bathing was determined in the same manner as above.

[0074] [Table 8]

[0075] As shown in Table 8, even when (A) the UV protection agent was composed only of a UV scattering agent (containing no organic UV absorber), the effect unique to the present invention was obtained, in which the UV protection effect after bathing in water was improved compared to before bathing in water.
