Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a transparent composition having transparency and a high ultraviolet ray shielding effect, and a transparent cosmetic containing the same as a base.

Background Art

[0002] Oily transparent cosmetics mainly have advantages such as beautiful appearance and a transparent finish when applied, and thus various transparent bases have been studied.

[0003] For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a cosmetic using a transparent base having a refractive index of 1.45 to 1.54 and composed of 12-hydroxystearic acid and an oil component. Patent Document 2 discloses a transparent solid cosmetic composed of 12-hydroxystearic acid, heavy liquid paraffin, and a liquid oily component. Patent Document 3 discloses a transparent solid cosmetic containing 12-hydroxystearic acid, a transparent liquid oily component having a hydroxyl value of 120 or less, and methylphenylpolysiloxane.

[0004] In addition, as a transparent cosmetic containing dextrin fatty acid ester, Patent Document 4 discloses a transparent solid cosmetic containing dextrin fatty acid ester, heavy liquid paraffin, and a liquid oily component from the viewpoint of improving gloss during application. Patent Document 5 discloses a transparent solid composition containing dextrin fatty acid ester, a volatile oil component, an oil component having a refractive index of 1.4 to 1.6, and a spherical powder having a refractive index of 1.3 to 1.6 and an average particle diameter of 3 to 30 μm from the viewpoint of exerting a skin unevenness correcting effect and making pores less noticeable.

[0005] Although the above-mentioned transparent cosmetics containing 12-hydroxystearic acid or dextrin fatty acid ester are widely known, there has been a problem that when other active ingredients that exert additional effects are blended into these transparent solid cosmetics, the moldability, stability, or transparency is impaired.

[0006] Patent Document 6 discloses that in a transparent solid cosmetic thickened or gelled with an amino acid derivative-modified silicone, from the viewpoint of maintaining the transparency of the appearance even when an ultraviolet absorber that is poorly soluble in nonpolar oil is blended, a specific lysine derivative-modified silicone, silicone oil, a polar oil having an IOB (Inorganic Organic Balance) of 0.17 to 0.63, and an ultraviolet absorber are blended to form a transparent solid composition.

[0007] The transparent cosmetic described in Patent Document 6 contains an ultraviolet absorber. Generally, a cosmetic applied to the skin is exposed to various moisture from both inside and outside the coating film, such as moisture from the external environment like sweat and seawater secreted from the skin. Therefore, even if a high amount of a resin or a film-forming agent for imparting water resistance is blended, it is difficult to completely prevent the outflow of the ultraviolet absorber, ultraviolet scattering agent, etc., and it is inevitable that the ultraviolet protection effect will decrease.

[0008] On the other hand, the applicant has proposed an emulsified sunscreen cosmetic having an unprecedented property that the ultraviolet protection effect is improved after contact with moisture such as water and sweat by using an oil thickener or the like (Patent Documents 7 and 8).

Patent Document 7

[0010] As described in Patent Document 6, transparent cosmetics containing an ultraviolet absorber are known. However, when they come into contact with moisture such as water or sweat, external leakage of the ultraviolet absorber occurs, and there has been a problem that the obtained ultraviolet protection effect decreases compared to immediately after application. In order to suppress the decrease in the ultraviolet prevention effect due to contact with moisture such as water or sweat, it is conceivable to apply an oil thickener as in Patent Documents 7 and 8. However, in the case of transparent cosmetics, when trying to blend other active ingredients that exhibit additional effects, there is a problem that the stability and transparency, which is the original function, are impaired.

[0011] The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a transparent composition that has an ultraviolet protection effect while maintaining high transparency and has the property that the ultraviolet protection effect is improved compared to immediately after application when it comes into contact with moisture such as water or sweat. [Means for Solving the Problems]

[0012] As a result of intensive studies to solve the above problems, the present inventor has found that by blending two types of oils having a refractive index in a specific range and a powder having a refractive index in a specific range with an ultraviolet absorber and an oil thickener, it is possible to produce a transparent composition in which the ultraviolet protection effect is improved compared to immediately after application while maintaining high transparency, and has completed the present invention.

[0016] (a) The mass ratio of the powder having a refractive index of 1.45 to 1.55 to the ultraviolet absorber is preferably 0.01 or more and 1 or less.

[0017] (e) The oil thickener is preferably dextrin fatty acid ester, sucrose fatty acid ester, glyceryl fatty acid ester, amino acid-based gelling agent, fatty acid or its salt, or organically modified clay mineral.

[0018] The transparent composition of the present invention is preferably solid, and its form may be stick-shaped.

[0019] The transparent cosmetic of the present invention contains the above transparent composition as a base.

Examples of such high refractive index oils include, but are not limited to, hydrogenated polyisobutene, trimethylpentaphenylpolysiloxane, diphenylsiloxyphenyltrimethicone, diphenyldimethylsilicone, macadamia nut fatty acid phytosteryl, phytosteryl isostearate, etc. For example, as trimethylpentaphenylpolysiloxane, PH-1555HRIC (refractive index 1.58) of Toray Dow Corning, Silicone KF56 (refractive index about 1.5) manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd., FZ-3156 (refractive index: 1.575) manufactured by Nippon Unicar Co., Ltd., as diphenyldimethylsilicone, KF-54 (refractive index 1.505) manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd., as macadamia nut fatty acid phytosteryl, Plandool-MAS (refractive index: 1.501) manufactured by Nippon Seika Co., Ltd., etc. are commercially available, and these can be preferably used.

[0027] In the transparent composition of the present invention, the blending amount of the high refractive index oil having a refractive index of 1.5 to 1.7 is an amount such that, in combination with the oil having a refractive index of less than 1.3 to 1.5 (c) described later, the average refractive index of these mixed oils is within the range of 1.44 to 1.56. Although it varies depending on the type and combination of the components to be blended, etc., it is preferably 5 to 50% by mass, more preferably 10 to 40% by mass, and even more preferably 15 to 35% by mass with respect to the composition. The high refractive index oil may be used alone or in appropriate combination of two or more kinds.

[0028] <(c) Oil having a refractive index of less than 1.3 to 1.5> (c) The oil having a refractive index of less than 1.3 to 1.5 is an oil having a relatively low refractive index of less than 1.3 to 1.5 at 25°C (hereinafter, simply referred to as component (c) or low refractive index oil). Although not limited, examples of such low refractive index oils include, for example, diisopropyl sebacate (refractive index: about 1.43), triethylhexanoin (refractive index: about 1.45), isopropyl myristate (refractive index: about 1.43), hydrogenated polydecene (refractive index: about 1.46), glyceryl tri(caprylate / caprate) (refractive index: about 1.45), glyceryl tri(2-ethylhexanoate) (refractive index: about 1.44), cetyl 2-ethylhexanoate (refractive index: about 1.44), trimethylolpropane trioctanoate (refractive index: about 1.45), squalane (refractive index: about 1.45), α-olefin oligomer (refractive index: about 1.46), glyceryl diisostearate (refractive index: about 1.46), distearyl malate (refractive index: about 1.46), polyglyceryl triisostearate (refractive index: about 1.47), macadamia nut oil (refractive index: about 1.47), liquid paraffin (refractive index: about 1.47), isododecane (refractive index: about 1.42), isohexadecane (refractive index: about 1.43), light isoparaffin (refractive index: about 1.43), dimethylpolysiloxane (refractive index: about 1.40), polyoxyalkylene·polyalkylsiloxane (alkylene = ethylene: refractive index: about 1.42), etc. In particular, diisopropyl sebacate, triethylhexanoin, glyceryl tri(caprylate / caprate), etc. can be preferably used.

[0029] From the viewpoint of usability, the component (c) may contain a volatile oil having a boiling point of 300 ° C or lower at normal pressure. By including the volatile oil, the greasiness is reduced and the resulting finish has less stickiness.

[0030] In the transparent composition of the present invention, the blending amount of the low refractive index oil is an amount such that, in combination with the above high refractive index oil, the average refractive index of these mixed oils is within the range of 1.44 to 1.56. Although it varies depending on the type and combination of the components to be blended, etc., it is preferably 5 to 50% by mass, more preferably 10 to 40% by mass, and still more preferably 15 to 35% by mass with respect to the composition. The low refractive index oil may be used alone or in appropriate combination of two or more.

[0031] The total blending amount of the oil obtained by mixing the high refractive index oil (component (b)) and the low refractive index oil (component (c)) is not particularly limited, but is preferably 10 to 80% by mass, more preferably 20 to 70% by mass. When the blending amount of the oil is less than 10% by mass, it may be difficult to impart a glossy finish to the composition, and when it exceeds 80% by mass, stickiness may occur. Adjust the blending amounts of the component (b) and the component (c) so that the average refractive index of these mixed oils is within the range of 1.44 to 1.56. When the blending amount of the oil is less than 10% by mass, it may be difficult to impart a glossy finish to the composition, and when it exceeds 80% by mass, stickiness may occur. Adjust the blending amounts of the component (b) and the component (c) so that the average refractive index of these mixed oils is within the range of 1.44 to 1.56.

[0032] <Powder with a refractive index of 1.45 to 1.55> (d) A powder having a refractive index of 1.45 to 1.55 (hereinafter, also simply referred to as component (d)) is a powder having a refractive index of 1.45 to 1.55 in the literature value. When the refractive index is within this range, the refractive index difference from the oily component used in the present invention is small, and thereby high transparency of the base can be realized. Such powders include, but are not limited to, for example, silica, dimethylsilylated silica (about 1.46), polymethyl methacrylate (about 1.49), (HDl / trimethylolhexyl lactone) cross-polymer (about 1.5), (IPDI / poly(1,4-but Examples include cross-polymer (approx. 1.49), nylon (approx. 1.53), cellulose (approx. 1.49), polyethylene (approx. 1.51), polyurethane (approx. 1.50), silicic anhydride (approx. 1.45 - 1.50), etc. Further, these powders may be surface-treated such as hydrophobization treatment by a conventional method and then blended.

[0033] Examples of commercially available hydrophobic silica include, for example, AEROSIL R972, R972V, R972CF, R974, R976, R976S (manufactured by Nippon Aerosil Co., Ltd.) which are treated with dimethyldichlorosilane, AEROSIL R805 (manufactured by Nippon Aerosil Co., Ltd.) which is treated with octylsilane, AEROSIL R8 12, R812S, RX200 (manufactured by Nippon Aerosil Co., Ltd.), AEROSIL R202, RY200 (manufactured by Nippon Aerosil Co., Ltd.) which are treated with dimethyl silicone oil, etc. can be mentioned.

[0034] Methyl polymethacrylate is a spherical powder mainly composed of cross-linked polymethacrylic acid (PMMA), and may contain other components such as silica, etc. in an amount of several mass% or less. Examples of commercially available products include, for example, Gunz Pearl GMX-0810 (manufactured by Gunz Kasei Co., Ltd.), Microsphere M-330 (manufactured by Matsumoto Yushi Seiyaku Co., Ltd.), etc.

[0035] Examples of commercially available silicic anhydride include, for example, Sunsphere L-51, L-31, H-31, H-31, NP-30, NP-100 (manufactured by AGC SI Tech Co., Ltd.), etc.

[0036] Polyurethane is a spherical powder mainly composed of urethane resin, and may contain other components such as silica, etc. in an amount of several mass%. Examples of commercially available products include, for example, TP Powder U Series (Toyo Ink Pigment Co., Ltd.), etc.

[0037] The blending amount of the powder is 0.1 to 20% by mass, preferably 0.5 to 10% by mass, based on the total amount of the composition. By making the refractive indices of the oil component and the powder uniform, even when a considerable amount of powder is blended, it is transparent and can maintain high transparency while reducing stickiness and enhancing usability. Furthermore, when a volatile oil component is included together with such a powder, it has a transparent appearance before application, but when applied to the skin, the volatile oil component evaporates, causing the refractive indices of the powder and the oil component to deviate and become translucent, resulting in a concavo-convex correction effect.

[0038] (a) The mass ratio of component (d) to the ultraviolet absorber is preferably 0.01 or more and 1 or less, and more preferably 0.01 or more and 0.5 or less. When the mass ratio of component (d) to component (a) is within this range, the effect of further enhancing the ultraviolet protection effect due to contact with moisture can be achieved.

[0039] <(e) Oil thickener> The transparent composition of the present invention preferably contains an (e) oil thickener. (e) The oil thickener (hereinafter also simply referred to as component (e)) can be appropriately selected from substances used as components that exhibit the effect of thickening the oil component by dissolving in the oil component or swelling with the oil component in cosmetics and the like. For example, dextrin fatty acid ester, sucrose fatty acid ester, glyceryl fatty acid ester, amino acid-based gelling agent, fatty acid or its salt, or organically modified clay mineral, etc. are preferred. The oil thickener may be used alone, or two or more kinds may be appropriately combined and used, and it is particularly preferred to blend two or more kinds.

[0040] Dextrin fatty acid ester is an ester of dextrin or reduced dextrin and a higher fatty acid, and can be used without particular limitation as long as it is generally used in cosmetics. It is preferable to use dextrin or reduced dextrin having an average sugar polymerization degree of 3 to 100. Further, as the constituent fatty acid of the dextrin fatty acid ester, it is preferable to use a saturated fatty acid having 8 to 22 carbon atoms. Specifically, dextrin palmitate, dextrin oleate, dextrin stearate, dextrin myristate, (palmitic acid / 2-ethylhexanoic acid) dextrin, etc. can be mentioned.

[0041] For sucrose fatty acid ester, it is preferable to use those in which the fatty acid is linear or branched, saturated or unsaturated, and has 12 to 22 carbon atoms. Specifically, sucrose caprylate, sucrose capricate, sucrose laurate, sucrose myristate, sucrose palmitate, sucrose stearate, sucrose oleate, sucrose erucate, etc. can be mentioned.

[0042] Glyceryl fatty acid ester is an esterification reaction product obtained by reacting glycerin, a dibasic acid having 18 to 28 carbon atoms, and a fatty acid having 8 to 28 carbon atoms (excluding dibasic acids), and can be used without particular limitation as long as it is generally used in cosmetics. Specifically, glyceryl (behenic acid / isostearic acid / eicosanedioic acid), glyceryl (behenic acid / eicosanedioic acid), polyglyceryl-10 (behenic acid / eicosanedioic acid), etc. can be mentioned.

[0043] Amino acid-based gelling agents include dibutyl lauroyl glutamide, dibutyl ethylhexanoyl glutamide, polyamide-8, polyamide-3, etc.

[0044] As the fatty acid, those that are solid at normal temperature can be used, for example, myristic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, behenic acid, 12-hydroxystearic acid, etc. can be mentioned. Further, as the salts of fatty acids, calcium salts, magnesium salts, aluminum salts, etc. of these can be mentioned.

[0045] Typical specific examples of the organically modified clay minerals include dimethyldistearylammonium hectorite, dimethylalkylammonium hectorite, benzyldimethylstearylammonium hectorite, distearyldimethylammonium chloride-treated magnesium aluminum silicate, etc. As commercially available products, Benton 27 (benzyldimethylstearylammonium chloride-treated hectorite: manufactured by Elementis Japan) and Benton 38 (distearyldimethylammonium chloride-treated hectorite: manufactured by Elementis Japan) are preferable.

[0046] The blending amount of the oil thickener is 0.1 to 40% by mass, more preferably 0.2 to 30% by mass, still more preferably 0.4 to 15% by mass with respect to the total amount of the composition. (e) When the blending amount of the oil thickener is less than 0.1% by mass, it is difficult to obtain sufficient stability, and when it is blended in excess of 40% by mass, the viscosity becomes high, and it is not preferable in terms of usability such as the elongation on the skin becoming heavy.

[0047] In the present invention, the refractive index is a value measured at 25 °C with an AUTOMATIC REFRACTOMETER manufactured by Rudolph Research Analytical, and for powders, it is based on literature values.

[0048] The transparent composition of the present invention is preferably solid. Here, "solid" means a composition that has no fluidity at normal temperature (15°C to 25°C) and normal pressure. As the dosage form, it can be in the form of a stick, a dish, an ointment, etc. In particular, the stick-shaped one is easy to use because it does not require the use of fingers or tools and can be directly applied to the skin. Furthermore, a transparent stick is also preferable because it looks good and the finished transparency can be seen just by looking at it.

[0049] "Transparent" means that when a measurement sample in which a plastic cell with an optical path length of 10 mm × an optical path width of 10 mm is melt-filled with a base portion containing no powder other than the component (d) of the transparent composition of the present invention is measured for transmittance with a spectrophotometer (U-4100 manufactured by HITACHI), the transmittance in the wavelength region of light with a wavelength of 700 nm is 70% or more. If the transmittance is within this range, it includes those that are colored.

[0050] In the transparent composition of the present invention, as long as the effects of the present invention are not impaired, arbitrary components can be blended in addition to the above essential components. Usually, arbitrary transparent cosmetics can be produced by adding components usually blended in cosmetics and by conventional methods.

[0051] Examples of the arbitrary components include, within a blending range that does not impair transparency, oil components, higher alcohols, POE (polyoxyethylene)·POP (polyoxypropylene) dimethyl ether, surfactants, moisturizing agents, sequestering agents, antioxidants, oil-soluble drugs, etc., other than (a) to (e) described above.

Examples

[0067] Next, the present invention will be further specifically described with reference to examples. The present invention is not limited by the following examples in any way. The blending amounts are in mass % unless otherwise specified.

[0068] The examples and comparative examples were produced by conventional methods according to the formulations shown in Tables 1 to 3. Specifically, when an oil thickener was included, this was added to the oil, heated to 80 to 130 °C and dissolved, and then the remaining components (ultraviolet absorber, powder, etc.) were added and dispersed with a homomixer until uniform. After degassing, it was solidified at room temperature to obtain each sample.

[0069] [Refractive index] The refractive index was measured at 25 °C using an AUTOMATIC REFRACTOMETER manufactured by Rudolph Research Analytical.

[0070] [Transparency] A measurement sample in which a plastic cell with an optical path length of 10 mm × an optical path width of 10 mm was melt-filled with a base portion containing no powder of the examples and comparative examples was measured for the transmittance in the wavelength region of light at 700 nm using a spectrophotometer (U-4100 manufactured by Hitachi, Ltd.).

[0071] [UV protection effect after water bath] Each sample was dropped onto a measurement plate (S plate) (a 5×5 cm V-grooved PMMA plate, SPFMASTER-PA01) in an amount of 2 mg / cm 2 , applied with a finger for 60 seconds, and after drying for 15 minutes, the absorbance of the formed coating film was measured using a U-4100 type self-recording spectrophotometer manufactured by Hitachi, Ltd. A measurement plate with nothing applied was used as a control, and the absorbance (Abs) was calculated by the following formula. Abs = -log(T / To) T: Transmittance of the sample, To: Transmittance of the measurement plate with nothing applied The measured plate was fully immersed in water with a hardness of 50 to 500 and left standing in the water for 30 minutes. Then, it was dried for about 15 to 30 minutes until the water droplets on the surface disappeared, and the absorbance was measured again. The Abs change rate (the following formula) was calculated as the UV protection ability improvement effect from the integrated Abs value (in the wavelength range of 280 to 400 nm) before and after the water bath. UV protection ability improvement effect: Abs change rate (%) = (Integrated Abs value after water bath) / (Integrated Abs value before water bath) × 10 0

Table 3

[0075] As shown in Table 1, the transparent composition of the present invention exhibited the characteristic that the ultraviolet protection effect after a water bath was improved while maintaining high transparency. On the other hand, in Comparative Example 1, although the transparency was maintained, since it did not contain (d) powder, the ultraviolet protection effect after the water bath decreased. Also, as shown in Table 2, the transparent composition of the present invention exhibited the characteristics of high transparency and improved ultraviolet protection effect after a water bath, similar to Example 10 which did not contain it, even when it contained an oil thickener (Examples 11 to 15). On the other hand, Comparative Example 2 which contained an oil thickener but did not contain (d) powder showed a decrease in the ultraviolet protection effect after the water bath. Furthermore, as shown in Table 3, Comparative Example 3 which did not contain (b) high refractive index oil and Comparative Example 4 which did not contain (c) low refractive index oil lacked transparency.
