Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an aerosol cosmetic preparation. [Background technology]

[0002] Skin problems such as dark circles under the eyes and dullness are believed to be caused by reduced blood flow, and cosmetics that utilize the effects of carbon dioxide gas are being considered to improve these conditions. For example, Patent Document 1 describes that an aerosol cosmetic product that uses a specific combination of dimethylpolysiloxane and polyethylene glycol in a specific ratio, as well as a water-soluble thickener, a specific surfactant, and carbon dioxide gas, suppresses the evaporation of carbon dioxide gas, and leaves the skin non-sticky after application, with an excellent feel in use, including smoothness and softness.

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2020-2126 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] Conventional carbon dioxide-containing aerosol cosmetics can temporarily improve blood circulation in the skin when applied to the skin, but it is difficult to achieve sustained skin brightening. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] The inventors have discovered that by adjusting the concentrate solution of an aerosol cosmetic to a specific pH, the solubility as carbonate ions is improved, the concentration of carbon dioxide gas after spraying is increased, and evaporation is suppressed, thereby enabling a continuous supply of carbon dioxide gas to the skin, not only making the skin uniformly red, but also realizing new value in that the L value remains high even over time, brightening the skin.

[0006] The present invention relates to a composition comprising the following components (A) and (G): (A) a water-soluble thickener, (G)Water and a stock solution having a pH of 7.1 or more and 10 or less; (C) Carbon dioxide An aerosol cosmetic comprising: The present invention relates to an aerosol cosmetic in which the pH of the cosmetic immediately after spraying is 6 or more and 7.0 or less. [Effects of the Invention]

[0007] The aerosol cosmetic of the present invention suppresses the evaporation of carbon dioxide gas from the foam sprayed from the container, and the carbon dioxide gas concentration in the foam is high, allowing for a continuous supply of carbon dioxide gas to the skin. After application, the skin shows a large increase in ΔL as well as Δa, improving the skin to a uniformly reddened and brighter appearance. ΔL remains high even over time, allowing for sustained brightness. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[Example]

[0046] Examples 1 to 11 and Comparative Examples 1 to 2 Aerosol cosmetics having the compositions shown in Tables 1 and 2 were prepared, and the viscosity and pH of the concentrate at 25°C, as well as the pH of the cosmetic immediately after spraying, were measured. In addition, carbon dioxide volatility and skin color (colorimetry, visual observation) immediately after application and 3 minutes after application were evaluated. These results are shown in Tables 1 and 2.

[0047] (Manufacturing method) Step 1: Aqueous phase components including (A) a water-soluble thickener, (G) water, (B) a base, and polyethylene glycol were heated to 58 to 68°C and dispersed using a disper. Step 2: To the aqueous phase obtained in Step 1, oil phase components including (D) oil solution, dipropylene glycol, 1,3-propanediol, and (F) surfactant were added, dispersed using a disper, and then stirred using a homomixer. Step 3: The liquid obtained in step 2 was cooled to 15 to 30°C, a flavoring agent was added, and the mixture was stirred to obtain a stock solution. Step 4: The concentrate obtained in Step 3 was filled into a pressure-resistant container and sealed, after which component (C) was added under pressure to obtain an aerosol cosmetic. 2.4 parts by mass of carbon dioxide gas was blended with 97.6 parts by mass of concentrate (concentrate:carbon dioxide = 97.6:2.4).

[0048] (Evaluation method) (1) Stock solution viscosity: 50 g of the stock solution was filled into a 50 mL glass container, and the viscosity was measured using a BM viscometer (manufactured by Toki Sangyo Co., Ltd.) (rotor No. 3, 12 rpm, 1 minute).

[0049] (2) Stock pH: 50 g of the stock solution was filled into a 50 mL glass container, and the pH was measured at 25°C using a pH / ION-METER F-72 manufactured by HORIBA.

[0050] (3) pH of the cosmetic immediately after spraying: The cosmetic was filled into a 20 mL glass container while being sprayed from an aerosol container, and the measurement was performed at 25°C using a pH / ION-METER F-72 manufactured by HORIBA. The measurement was performed immediately after spraying from the aerosol container, and the measurement value after 1 minute was used.

[0051] (4) Carbon dioxide volatility: (4-1) Carbon dioxide evaporation rate: As shown in Figure 1, each aerosol cosmetic was placed in a cylindrical glass container (volume 19 cm 3After spraying approximately 1 gf into the container, a carbon dioxide electrode CE-2041 (manufactured by DKK-TOA Corporation) was inserted without touching the cosmetic, and the carbon dioxide concentration was immediately measured with the glass container sealed. The measuring device (carbonate ion concentration meter) was an ION / pH METER IM-32P. Measurement was started immediately after injection, and the change in carbon dioxide concentration over the four minutes from 1 minute to 5 minutes after the start of measurement was calculated to determine the rate of carbon dioxide volatilization (ppm / min).

[0052] (4-2) Carbon dioxide volatilization rate: In the same manner as in (4-1), the carbon dioxide concentration was measured 10 minutes and 20 minutes after the start of the measurement.

[0053] (5) Skin color evaluation (colorimetric value): A cup shaker (3.4 cm in diameter) was attached to the inside of the forearm, and 0.5 g of the cosmetic was sprayed directly from the aerosol container into the cup shaker, and then applied by spreading it as evenly as possible with a spatula. After application, the cosmetic was left on for 2 minutes and then wiped off with tissue paper. The a and L values ​​of the skin before and after application of the cosmetic were measured using a colorimeter CM2600d (manufactured by Konica Minolta, Inc.) Measurements were repeated three times on one site, and measurements were taken immediately after the cosmetic was removed and three minutes later. The measured a and L values ​​were used to calculate the average values ​​of three measurements, and the difference Δa and ΔL values ​​from before application were calculated.

[0054] (6) Skin color evaluation (visual): When measuring the above colorimetric values, the redness and brightness of the skin were visually evaluated according to the following criteria, and the average values ​​of three measurements were calculated. 2;Very red / very bright. 1.5; Between very red and red / between very light and light. 1;Red / Bright. 0.5: Slightly red / slightly bright. 0: Same as before application.

[0055] [Table 1]

[0056] [Table 2]

[0057] Examples 12 to 17 Aerosol cosmetics having the compositions shown in Tables 3 and 4 were produced in the same manner as in Examples 1 to 11, and the viscosity and pH of the concentrate at 25°C, as well as the pH of the cosmetic immediately after spraying, were measured. The results are also shown in Tables 3 and 4. All of the cosmetics of Examples 12 to 17 suppress the evaporation of carbon dioxide gas from the cosmetics sprayed from the container, have a high carbon dioxide gas concentration, and can improve the skin after application to a uniformly reddened and bright skin.

[0058] [Table 3]

[0059] [Table 4]

[0060] Test Example 1 The carbon dioxide concentration of the aerosol cosmetics of Example 4 and Comparative Example 1 was measured immediately after spraying and 20 minutes later. The results are shown in Figures 3 and 4.

[0061] (Method for measuring carbon dioxide concentration) As shown in Figure 2, 30 g of purified water was precisely measured and placed in a screw cap, and two drops of 48% KOH aqueous solution were added. The amount of 48% KOH was accurately recorded. Approximately 1.0 g of cosmetic material was precisely measured and sprayed directly into the screw cap from an aerosol container, and then added. The mixture was stirred for five minutes with a stirrer. 2.5 g of 20% citric acid was then precisely measured and added, and the carbon dioxide concentration was immediately measured with an ion concentration meter. The measurement was carried out while the sample aqueous solution was stirred with a stirrer. Using the measurement results of the ion concentration meter, the carbon dioxide concentration contained in the cosmetic was calculated according to the following formula. Carbonate concentration in cosmetic (ppm) = measured value (ppm) × {weight of cosmetic (g) / (weight of cosmetic (g) + weight of water (g) + weight of 48% KOH (g) + weight of 20% citric acid (g)}

[0062] 3 and 4, the carbon dioxide concentration of the cosmetic of Example 4 was higher than that of Comparative Example 1 both immediately after spraying and 20 minutes after spraying.

[0063] Test Example 2 The aerosol cosmetics of Example 4 and Comparative Example 1 were applied to the skin and evaluated for redness and brightness (colorimetric value, visual observation). The results are shown in FIGS.

[0064] (Evaluation method) A cup shaker (3.4 cm in diameter) was attached to the inside of the forearm, and 0.5 g of cosmetic was sprayed directly into it from an aerosol container and applied using a spatula, spreading it as evenly as possible. After application, it was left on for 2 minutes and then wiped off with tissue paper. (i) Colorimetric values; The a and L values ​​of the skin before and after application of the cosmetic were measured using a colorimeter CM2600d (Konica Minolta, Inc.) Measurements were repeated three times on one area, and after the cosmetic was removed, measurements were taken every minute from immediately after removal until five minutes later. The measured a and L values ​​were used to calculate the average values ​​of three measurements, and the difference Δa and ΔL values ​​from before application were calculated.

[0065] (ii) Visual inspection: When measuring the above colorimetric values, the redness and brightness of the skin were visually evaluated according to the following criteria, and the average values ​​of three measurements were calculated. 2;Very red / very bright. 1.5; Between very red and red / between very light and light. 1;Red / Bright. 0.5: Slightly red / slightly bright. 0: Same as before application.

[0066] 5 to 8 show that when applied to the skin, the aerosol cosmetic of Example 4 increases Δa and ΔL more significantly over a long period of time than the aerosol cosmetic of Comparative Example 1, improving the skin to a uniformly reddened and brighter appearance. In particular, the brighter skin can be maintained.
