Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a method for removing color from hair keratin fibers, comprising applying at least one composition for color removal to hair keratin fibers that have been previously colored using at least one composition for coloring hair keratin fibers, the composition comprising a (poly)carbodiimide compound and at least one colorant selected from pigments, direct dyes and mixtures thereof, wherein the color removal composition comprises at least one glycol ether.

[0002] The present invention relates to a composition for removing color from hair keratin fibers that have been previously colored with a composition for coloring hair keratin fibers, the composition comprising at least one coloring agent selected from pigments, direct dyes and mixtures thereof, - at least 5% by weight, based on the total weight of the color removal composition, of at least one glycol ether; - at least one alkyl or alkylene carbonate; - optionally at least one polyol different from a glycol ether The present invention also relates to a composition comprising:

[0003] The present invention also relates to the use of the composition of the present invention or the composition used in connection with the method of the present invention for removing color from hair keratin fibers that have been previously colored with a composition for coloring hair keratin fibers, the composition comprising at least one coloring agent selected from pigments, direct dyes and mixtures thereof. [Background technology]

[0004] In the field of coloring keratinous fibers, in particular human keratinous fibers, it is already known practice to color the keratinous fibers by various techniques, using direct dyes or pigments to produce non-permanent coloring, or dye precursors to produce permanent coloring.

[0005] There are three basic methods for coloring hair: a) "Permanent" coloring: its action makes it possible to significantly modify the original color and uses oxidative dyes that penetrate the hair fiber and produce pigments through an oxidative condensation process. b) Non-permanent, semi-permanent or direct coloring: without using an oxidative condensation process and withstanding 4 or 5 shampoo washes; this involves coloring the hair keratin fibers with a hair coloring composition containing a direct dye. c) Temporary coloring: corrects the natural color of the hair, remains from one shampooing to the next, and serves to enhance or correct the shade already obtained. This can also be related to the "make-up" method.

[0006] For the latter type of coloration, it is known to use colored polymers obtained by grafting one or more dyes of azo, triphenylmethane, azine, indoamine or anthraquinone nature onto the polymer chain. Such colored polymers are not entirely satisfactory, especially with regard to the uniformity of the color imparted and its durability, not to mention the problems associated with their preparation, especially with regard to reproducibility.

[0007] Other coloring methods include the use of pigments. Specifically, the use of pigments on the surface of keratin fibers generally makes it possible to achieve noticeable coloring on dark-colored hair, since the surface pigments hide the original color of the fibers. This coloring method also makes it possible to have available dye compositions that have the advantage of producing a uniform color coating on keratin fibers, especially on hair, while at the same time making it possible to form a coat that can withstand various attacking factors that hair may be subjected to, such as shampooing, brushing, and / or rubbing, without deteriorating the hair.

[0008] However, there is no method for using an efficient color removal composition with this type of temporary hair coloring composition that is durable with respect to shampoo washout.

[0009] Therefore, there remains a need for a method for efficiently removing color from hair keratin fibers that have been previously colored using said hair coloring compositions that is persistent with respect to shampoo washing. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0091] An example of a lake is the product known by the following name: D&C Red 7 (CI 15 850:1).

[0092] Pigments can also be special effect pigments. The term "special effect pigments" refers to pigments that generally produce a colored appearance (characterized by a specific hue, a specific vividness, and a specific level of brightness) that is not uniform and that varies depending on the conditions of observation (light, temperature, angle of observation, etc.), thereby differing from colored pigments that exhibit standard uniform opaque, translucent, or transparent shades.

[0093] There are several types of special effect pigments: those with a low refractive index, such as fluorescent or photochromic pigments, and those with a high refractive index, such as pearlescent agents, interference pigments or glitter flakes.

[0094] Examples of special effect pigments that may be mentioned include pearlescent pigments such as mica coated with titanium or bismuth oxychloride, colored pearlescent pigments such as mica coated with titanium and iron oxide, mica coated with iron oxide, mica coated with titanium, in particular with ferric blue or chromium oxide, mica coated with titanium and coated with the organic pigments defined above, and also pearlescent pigments based on bismuth oxychloride. As pearlescent pigments, mention may be made of pearlescent agents such as Cellini (mica-TiO2-lake) sold by BASF, Prestige (mica-TiO2) sold by Eckart, Prestige Bronze (mica-Fe2O3) sold by Eckart, or Colorona (mica-TiO2-Fe2O3) sold by Merck.

[0095] Gold pearlescent agents, in particular those sold by BASF under the names Brilliant gold 212G (Timica), Gold 222C (Cloisonne), Sparkle gold (Timica), Gold 4504 (Chromalite) and Monarch gold 233X (Cloisonne); bronze pearlescent agents, in particular those sold by Merck under the names Bronze fine (17384) (Colorona) and Bronze (17353) (Colorona) and by BASF under the name Super bronze (Cloisonne); orange pearlescent agents, in particular those sold by BASF under the names Orange 363C (Cloisonne) and Orange MCR 101 (Cosmica) and by Merck under the names Passion orange (Colorona) and Matte orange (17449) (Microna); brown pearlescent agents, in particular those sold by BASF under the names Nu-antique Copper copper-tinted pearlescent agents, in particular those sold by BASF under the name Copper 340A (Timica); red-tinted pearlescent agents, in particular those sold by Merck under the name Sienna fine (17386) (Colorona); yellow-tinted pearlescent agents, in particular those sold by BASF under the name Yellow (4502) (Chromalite); gold-tinted red pearlescent agents, in particular those sold by BASF under the name Sunstone G012 (Gemtone); pink-tinted pearlescent agents, in particular those sold by BASF under the name Tan opale G005 (Gemtone); gold-tinted black pearlescent agents, in particular those sold by BASF under the name Nu antique bronze 240 blue pearlescent agents, in particular those sold under the name AB (Timica); blue pearlescent agents, in particular those sold under the name Matte blue (17433) (Microna) by Merck; silvery white pearlescent agents, in particular those sold under the name Xirona Silver by Merck;Mention may also be made of gold-green to pink to orange-shifting pearlescent agents, in particular those sold under the name Indian summer (Xirona) by Merck; and mixtures thereof.

[0096] Further examples of pearlescent agents may include particles comprising a borosilicate substrate coated with titanium oxide.

[0097] Particles comprising a glass substrate coated with titanium oxide are sold in particular under the name Metashine MC1080RY by the company Toyal.

[0098] Finally, as examples of pearlescent agents, mention may be made of polyethylene terephthalate glitter flakes, in particular those sold under the name Silver 1P 0.004X0.004 (silver glitter flakes) by Meadowbrook Inventions, Inc. Multilayer pigments based on synthetic substrates, such as alumina, silica, calcium sodium borosilicate, calcium aluminum borosilicate, and aluminum, may also be envisaged.

[0099] The special effect pigments can also be chosen from reflective particles, i.e. particles that, due to their size, structure, in particular the thickness of the layer of which they are composed, as well as their physical and chemical properties and surface condition, are able to reflect incident light, where appropriate, this reflection can be strong enough to produce, when applied to the support to be made up, a bright spot visible to the naked eye on the surface of the composition or mixture, i.e. a brighter spot that appears to be noticeably brighter than its surroundings.

[0100] The reflective particles can be selected so as not to significantly alter the color effect of the colorant with which they are combined, more particularly to optimize this effect in terms of color rendering, which can more particularly have yellow, pink, red, bronze, orange, brown, gold and / or copper colors or shades.

[0101] These particles may have various morphologies, in particular in the form of platelets or spheres, in particular in the form of spheres.

[0102] Regardless of their morphology, the reflective particles may or may not have a multi-layer structure, and if they do have a multi-layer structure, they may have at least one layer of a particularly reflective material, for example of uniform thickness.

[0103] If the reflective particles do not have a multilayer structure, they may consist of metal oxides, in particular synthetically obtained titanium oxide or iron oxide.

[0104] When the reflective particles have a multilayer structure, they may comprise, for example, a natural or synthetic substrate, in particular a synthetic substrate, at least partially coated with at least one layer of a reflective material, in particular at least one metal or metallic material. The substrate can be made from one or more organic and / or inorganic materials.

[0105] More particularly, it can be chosen from glass, ceramic, graphite, metal oxides, alumina, silica, silicates, especially aluminosilicates and borosilicates, and synthetic mica, and mixtures thereof, without being limited to this list.

[0106] The reflective material may include a metal or a layer of metallic material.

[0107] Reflective particles are described in particular in the documents JP-A-09-188830, JP-A-10-158450, JP-A-10-158541, JP-A-07-258460 and JP-A-05-017710.

[0108] Further examples of reflective particles comprising an inorganic substrate coated with a metal layer may include particles comprising a borosilicate substrate coated with silver.

[0109] Silver-coated glass-based particles in platelet form are sold by Toyal under the name Microglass Metashine REFSX 2025 PS. Nickel / chromium / molybdenum alloy-coated glass-based particles are sold by the same company under the names Crystal Star GF 550 and GF 2525.

[0110] Particles comprising a metal substrate such as silver, aluminum, iron, chromium, nickel, molybdenum, gold, copper, zinc, tin, magnesium, steel, bronze, or titanium may also be utilized, wherein the substrate is coated with at least one layer of at least one metal oxide such as titanium oxide, aluminum oxide, iron oxide, cerium oxide, chromium oxide, silicon oxide, and mixtures thereof.

[0111] Mention may be made, by way of example, of the aluminum, bronze or copper powders coated with SiO2 sold under the name Visionaire by the company Eckart.

[0112] Mention may also be made of pigments that are not bound to a substrate and exhibit interference effects, such as liquid crystals (Helicones HC from Wacker) or holographic luminescent flakes (Geometric Pigments or Spectra f / x from Spectratek).Pigments with special effects also include fluorescent pigments (these are either substances that fluoresce in daylight or that exhibit ultraviolet fluorescence), phosphorescent pigments, photochromic pigments, thermochromic pigments and quantum dots, for example, as sold by Quantum Dots Corporation.

[0113] The variety of pigments that can be used in the present invention makes it possible to obtain a wide range of colors and also to obtain specific optical effects such as metallic or interference effects.

[0114] The size of the pigments used in the composition according to the invention is generally between 10 nm and 200 μm, preferably between 20 nm and 80 μm, and more preferentially between 30 nm and 50 μm.

[0115] The pigment can be dispersed in the composition with a dispersant.

[0116] Dispersants serve to prevent the aggregation or flocculation of dispersed particles. They can be surfactants, oligomers, polymers, or mixtures of several of these, each containing one or more functional groups with a strong affinity for the surface of the particles to be dispersed. In particular, they can be physically or chemically bound to the pigment surface. These dispersants also contain at least one functional group that is compatible with or soluble in the continuous medium. In particular, esters of 12-hydroxystearic acid and esters of C8-C20 fatty acids and polyols such as glycerol or diglycerol are used, such as poly(12-hydroxystearic acid) stearate with a molecular weight of approximately 750 g / mol, such as the product sold by Avecia under the name Solsperse 21000, polyglyceryl-2 dipolyhydroxystearate (CTFA name) sold by Henkel under the trade name Dehymyls PGPH, or other polyhydroxystearates, such as the product sold by Uniqema under the trade name Arlacel P100, and mixtures thereof.

[0117] Other dispersants that may be used in the compositions of the present invention include quaternary ammonium derivatives of polycondensed fatty acids, such as Solsperse 17000 sold by Avecia, and polydimethylsiloxane / oxypropylene mixtures, such as those sold by Dow Corning under the trade designations DC2-5185 and DC2-5225 C.

[0118] The pigments that can be used in the composition can be surface-treated with an organic agent.

[0119] Thus, pre-surface-treated pigments useful in the context of the present invention are pigments which have been subjected, in whole or in part, to a surface treatment of a chemical, electronic, electrochemical, mechanochemical or mechanical nature with organic agents, such as those described in Cosmetics and Toiletries, February 1990, Vol. 105, pages 53-64, and which, after such treatment, are dispersed in the compositions of the present invention. These organic agents may be selected, for example, from waxes such as carnauba wax and beeswax; fatty acids, fatty alcohols and derivatives thereof, such as stearic acid, hydroxystearic acid, stearyl alcohol, hydroxystearyl alcohol and lauric acid and derivatives thereof; anionic surfactants; lecithin; sodium, potassium, magnesium, iron, titanium, zinc or aluminum salts of fatty acids, such as aluminum stearate or laurate; metal alkoxides; polyethylene; (meth)acrylic acid polymers, such as polymethyl methacrylate; polymers and copolymers containing acrylate units; alkanolamines; silicone compounds, such as silicones, in particular polydimethylsiloxane; organic fluorine compounds, such as perfluoroalkyl ethers; fluorosilicone compounds.

[0120] The surface-treated pigments useful in the present compositions may be treated with mixtures of these compounds and / or may have been subjected to several surface treatments.

[0122] Preferably, the surface-treated pigment is coated with an organic layer.

[0123] The organic agent with which the pigment is treated may be deposited on the pigment by evaporating the solvent, by chemical reaction between molecules of the surface treatment agent, or by forming a covalent bond between the surface treatment agent and the pigment.

[0124] Thus, the surface treatment can be carried out, for example, by chemically reacting a surface treatment agent with the pigment surface to form a covalent bond between the surface treatment agent and the pigment or filler, as described, inter alia, in U.S. Pat. No. 4,578,266.

[0125] Preferably, an organic agent that is covalently bonded to the pigment will be used.

[0126] The surface treatment agent can account for 0.1% to 50% by mass, preferably 0.5% to 30% by mass, and more preferably 1% to 20% by mass of the total mass of the pigment to be surface treated.

[0127] Preferably, the surface treatment of the pigment is one of the following treatments: - PEG-silicone treatments, such as the AQ surface treatment sold by LCW; - methicone treatments, such as the SI surface treatment sold by LCW; - dimethicone treatments, such as Covasil 3.05 surface treatment sold by LCW; - Dimethicone / trimethylsiloxysilicate treatments, such as Covasil 4.05 surface treatment sold by LCW; - magnesium myristate treatments, such as the MM surface treatment sold by LCW; - aluminum dimyristate treatment agents, such as the MI surface treatment agent sold by Miyoshi Kasei Co., Ltd.; - Perfluoropolymethyl isopropyl ether treatments, such as the FHC surface treatment sold by LCW; - isostearyl sebacate treatment agents, such as the HS surface treatment agent sold by Miyoshi Kasei Co., Ltd.; - perfluoroalkylphosphate treatment agents, such as the PF surface treatment agent sold by Daito Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.; - acrylate / dimethicone copolymer and perfluoroalkylphosphate treatment agents, such as the FSA surface treatment agent sold by Daito Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.; - polymethylhydrogenosiloxane / perfluoroalkylphosphate treatment agents, such as the FS01 surface treatment agent sold by Daito Kasei Kogyo Co., Ltd.; - acrylate / dimethicone copolymer treatment agents, such as the ASC surface treatment agent sold by Daito Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.; - isopropyl titanium triisostearate treatment agents, such as ITT surface treatment agents sold by Daito Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.; - acrylate copolymer treatment agents, such as the APD surface treatment agent sold by Daito Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.; - Perfluoroalkylphosphate / isopropyl titanium triisostearate treatment agent, such as PF+ITT surface treatment agent sold by Daito Kasei Kogyo Co., Ltd. is selected from.

[0165] For purposes of the present invention, the term "non-carboxylic acid agent" refers to an agent that does not contain a carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) or a carboxylate functional group (-COO - ) means a drug that does not contain

[0166] For the purposes of the present invention, the term "thickener" means a thickener that, when present at a concentration of 0.05% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition, thickens the composition into which it is incorporated at room temperature (25°C) and atmospheric pressure at a shear rate of 1 s -1 (Viscosity can be measured using a cone and plate viscometer such as a Haake R600 rheometer).

[0167] Preferably, the non-carboxylic acid anionic thickener is chosen from non-carboxylic acid anionic polymers, more preferentially from anionic polymers containing sulfonic groups.

[0168] For purposes of the present invention, the term "anionic polymer" means a polymer that contains one or more anionic groups or anionic groups and no cationic groups or cationic groups.

[0169] Advantageously, the non-carboxylic acid anionic thickener is chosen from anionic polymers comprising at least one ethylenically unsaturated monomer bearing a sulfonic group, in free form or in partially or completely neutralized form.

[0170] The polymers may be crosslinked or not, they are preferably crosslinked.

[0171] These polymers can be associative or non-associative, preferably non-associative.

[0172] Recall that "associative polymers" are polymers that are capable of reversibly associating with each other or with other molecules in aqueous media.

For example, the hydrophobic group may be derived from a fatty alcohol, such as stearyl alcohol, dodecyl alcohol or decyl alcohol. It may also represent a hydrocarbon-based polymer (for example, polybutadiene).

[0176] The ethylenically unsaturated monomer having a sulfonic acid group is, in particular, vinyl sulfonic acid, styrene sulfonic acid, (meth)acrylamide (C1-C 22) Alkyl sulfonic acid, N-(C1-C 22 ) Alkyl (meth)acrylamide (C1-C 22 ) alkyl sulfonic acids (such as undecylacrylamido methane sulfonic acid) and also partially or fully neutralized forms thereof.

[0178] More particularly, 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid (AMPS) and also its partially or fully neutralized forms are used.

[0179] Among the 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid copolymers, mention may be made of partially or completely neutralized crosslinked copolymers of 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid and acrylamide; particular mention may be made of the products described in Example 1 of EP 503853, to which reference may be made with regard to these polymers.

[0180] Mention may also be made of copolymers of 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid or its salts and hydroxyethyl acrylate, such as the compound sold under the name Sepinov EMT 10 by the company SEPPIC (INCI name: Hydroxyethyl acrylate / Sodium acryloyldimethyltaurate copolymer).

[0181] Associative AMPS polymers are particularly suitable for C6-C 22 They can be selected from statistical associative AMPS polymers modified by reaction with n-mono- or di-n-alkylamines, such as those described in patent application WO 00 / 31154, the content of which forms an integral part. These polymers can also contain other ethylenically unsaturated hydrophilic monomers, such as (meth)acrylic acid derivatives, for example their esters with monohydric alcohols, or mono- or polyalkylene glycols, (meth)acrylamides, vinylpyrrolidones or mixtures of these compounds.

[0182] Preferred polymers of this family are selected from associative copolymers of AMPS and at least one ethylenically unsaturated hydrophobic monomer.

[0183] These same copolymers may also contain one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomers not containing a fatty chain, such as (meth)acrylic acid derivatives, in particular their esters obtained with monoalcohols or mono- or polyalkylene glycols, (meth)acrylamide, vinylpyrrolidone, maleic anhydride, itaconic acid or maleic acid or mixtures of these compounds.

[0185] Among these polymers, mention may be made of: - 15% to 60% by mass of AMPS units and 40% to 85% by mass of (C8 to C9 16 ) alkyl (meth) acrylamide or (C8-C 16 ) alkyl (meth)acrylate units, crosslinked or non-crosslinked, neutralized or non-neutralized copolymers, such as those described in EP-A-750899; - 10 mol% to 90 mol% of acrylamide units, 0.1 mol% to 10 mol% of AMPS units, and 5 mol% to 80 mol% of n-(C6 to C 18) terpolymers containing alkylacrylamide units, such as those described in U.S. Pat.

[0501] Then, after combing, composition D is applied to said tresses of hair treated with composition C1 and dried, at a rate of 0.5 g of composition per gram of tress.

[0502] The hair tresses thus colored are then subjected to a color removal treatment: the hair tresses colored with composition C1 are treated with compositions E3 to E7.

[0503] Protocol for Removing Color from Hair Tresses Each of compositions E3 to E7 is applied to a colored hair tress at a rate of 1 g of composition per gram of tress. The tress is first massaged (running fingers along the tress 5 times). Then, after a 10-minute leave-on time at room temperature, the tress is massaged again (running fingers along the tress 5 times), and then the tress is rinsed.

[0504] The tresses are then washed using a standard shampoo (Garnier Ultra Doux).

[0505] The hair is then massaged, rinsed and then dried using a hair dryer.

[0510] Example 4: Compositions A3 and B3 described below were prepared, the amounts being expressed as g / 100g of starting material obtained.

[0511] [Table 8]

[0512] [Table 9]

[0513] Composition A3 is mixed with composition B3 in a 50 / 50 ratio to obtain composition C3.

[0514] Composition D described above in Example 2 is then used.

[0515] color removing composition In parallel, several color removal compositions according to the invention were prepared and are set out in the table below, the amounts being expressed as g / 100 g of the starting material obtained.

[0516] [Table 10]

[0517] Protocol for coloring hair: Composition C3 is applied to dry natural hair tresses containing 90% white hair at a rate of 0.8 g of composition per gram of tress.

[0518] The hair tresses are then dried using a hair dryer and then combed.

[0519] Composition D is then applied to the same tresses of hair that have been treated with composition C3 and dried, at a rate of 0.5 g of composition per gram of tress.

[0520] The hair tresses thus colored are left at room temperature for 24 hours and then subjected to a bleaching treatment.

[0521] The hair tresses coloured with composition C3 are treated with composition E8 or composition E9.

[0522] Protocol for Removing Color from Pre-Colored Hair Tresses Each of compositions E8 and E9 is applied to a colored hair tress at a rate of 0.5 g of composition per gram of tress or 10 g of composition per gram of tress. The tress is first massaged (running fingers along the tress 5 times).

[0525] result: The color durability of the tresses was evaluated in the CIE L*a*b* system using a Minolta Spectrophotometer CM3600A spectrophotometer (D65 illuminant, 10° angle, including specular reflection component).

[0526] In this L*a*b* system, L* represents the intensity of the color, a* indicates the green / red axis, and b* indicates the blue / yellow axis.

[0527] Color persistence is assessed by the color difference ΔE between colored tresses before removing the color from the tresses and then after undergoing the color removal method from the pre-colored tresses, as described above. The lower the ΔE value, the more color lasting for the color removal composition.

[0528] The ΔE value is calculated according to the following formula:

number

[0529] In this formula, L*a*b* represents the value measured after coloring the hair and after removing the color from the tress, and L0*a0*b0* represents the value measured after coloring the hair but before removing the color from the tress.

[0530] [Table 11]

[0531] It was observed that the composition for removing color E8 according to the present invention had better color removal power compared to the comparative composition for removing color E9.
