Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a hair styling composition filled in a container with an applicator. In particular, it relates to a hair styling composition having a high setting power and gloss, being non-greasy, and having good affinity for hair.

Background Art

[0002] One of the cosmetic compositions having the characteristic of being able to form a hairstyle is a gel-like hair styling composition containing a water-soluble resin that forms a hard film with water and imparts viscosity with a water-soluble thickener, generally called hair gel, which is widely used. Hair gel has a strong demand even in recent years because, unlike pomades that style hair with oily components, it is easy to spread with the palm, easy to wash off with shampoo, and can impart a fresh gloss.

[0003] However, when the content of the water-soluble resin is increased to impart a higher setting power, there are problems such as poor affinity for hair, stickiness, and generation.

[0004] Patent Document 1 discloses a gel-like hair styling composition that has good elongation and affinity for hair and gives high gloss and smoothness. Patent Document 2 discloses a gel-like hair styling composition that is non-greasy and has good hair styling properties.

[0005] By the way, there is hair mascara as a hair coloring composition for applying and coloring a pigment to a difficult-to-apply part such as the hairline. The mechanism of hair mascara is composed of a container containing a hair coloring composition and an applicator having an application body at one end of an application shaft and a container lid at the other end, and a mechanism capable of directly applying the hair coloring composition to the hair (Patent Document 3).

[0006] In recent years, by filling a gel-like hair styling composition into a hair mascara container, the demand for the hair styling composition contained in the hair mascara container has been increasing because the hair styling composition can be applied while styling with a brush and the hands are not soiled. [Prior art documents] [Patent Documents]

[0007] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2001-335436 [Patent Document 2] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2009-67735 [Patent Document 3] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2005-319004 [Overview of the project] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]

[0008] However, when a gel-type hair styling composition is applied to a hair mascara container, it is difficult to apply evenly because it differs from the conventional method of spreading it by hand before use, resulting in a feeling that it does not blend well with the hair. In order to solve this problem, reducing the amount of water-soluble resin not only reduces the holding power but also sometimes makes it even harder to blend with the hair.

[0009] The present invention aims to solve the above problems. Specifically, the present invention aims to provide a hair styling composition that has high setting power and shine, is non-sticky, and blends well with the hair even when applied with an applicator. [Means for solving the problem]

[0010] As a result of diligent research, the inventors have found that a hair styling composition filled in a container with an applicator can be obtained that has high setting power and shine, is non-sticky, and blends well with hair even when applied with an applicator, and is characterized in that the hair styling composition is characterized in that the content of component (A) is 10 to 35% by mass, the content of component (B) is 0.1 to 1% by mass, the content of component (D) is 1 to 10% by mass, and the content of component (E) is 0.5 to 5% by mass, and the hair styling composition is characterized in that it has high setting power and shine, is not sticky, and blends well with hair even when applied with an applicator, and thus the present invention has been completed. [Effects of the Invention]

[0011] The present invention provides a hair styling composition that has high setting power and shine, is non-sticky, and blends well with hair even when applied with an applicator. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0012] The present invention will be described in detail below.

[0013] The present invention relates to a hair styling composition filled in a container with an applicator, characterized in that it contains (A) polyethylene glycol that is liquid at 25°C, (B) one or more selected from carboxyvinyl polymer, acrylic acid / alkyl methacrylate copolymer, (ammonium acroyldimethyltaurate / VP) copolymer, or (hydroxyethyl acrylate / sodium acryloyldimethyltaurate) copolymer, (C) hydroxypropyl cellulose, (D) polyvinylpyrrolidone, and (E) (acrylates / diacetone acrylamide) copolymer AMP, wherein the content of component (A) is 10 to 35% by mass, the content of component (B) is 0.1 to 1% by mass, the content of component (D) is 1 to 10% by mass, and the content of component (E) is 0.5 to 5% by mass.

[0015] The content of component (A) used in the present invention is 10 to 35% by mass, preferably 12.5 to 30% by mass, and more preferably 15 to 25% by mass. If the content of component (A) is less than 10% by mass, gloss will decrease. If the content of component (A) exceeds 35% by mass, stickiness will occur.

[0016] Examples of component (A) used in the present invention include polyethylene glycol with a number average molecular weight of 200, polyethylene glycol with a number average molecular weight of 400, and polyethylene glycol with a number average molecular weight of 600. One or more of component (A) may be included.

[0017] Of the components (A) used in the present invention, polyethylene glycol with a number average molecular weight of 200 and polyethylene glycol with a number average molecular weight of 400 are preferred from the viewpoint of improving non-stickiness and good compatibility, and polyethylene glycol with a number average molecular weight of 200 is more preferred from the viewpoint of further improving compatibility.

[0019] The content of the component (B) used in the present invention is 0.1 to 1% by mass, preferably 0.2 to 0.9% by mass, and more preferably 0.3 to 0.8% by mass. When the component (B) is less than 0.1% by mass, the setting force decreases. When the component (B) exceeds 1% by mass, the gloss decreases.

[0020] Among the component (B) used in the present invention, from the perspective of improving the setting force, preferably carboxyvinyl polymer and acrylic acid - methacrylic acid alkyl copolymer are good, and from the perspective of further improving the non - stickiness, more preferably carboxyvinyl polymer is good.

[0021] From the perspective of good familiarity, the present invention contains (C) hydroxypropyl cellulose.

When the component (C) is less than 0.03% by mass, the familiarity may become poor. When the component (C) exceeds 1% by mass, there may be a decrease in the setting force or stickiness may occur.

[0023] From the perspective of setting force, the present invention contains (D) polyvinylpyrrolidone.

[0024] The content of the component (D) used in the present invention is 1 to 10% by mass, preferably 2 to 8% by mass, and more preferably 2.5 to 6% by mass. When the component (D) is less than 1% by mass, the setting force decreases. When the component (D) exceeds 10% by mass, stickiness occurs.

[0025] The K value of component (D) used in the present invention is preferably 30 or higher, more preferably 60 or higher, and even more preferably 90 or higher, from the viewpoint of improving the setting power.

[0026] The K value mentioned above is a viscosity characteristic value that correlates with molecular weight, and is calculated using the following Fikentscher formula, based on the viscosity measured by a capillary viscometer at 25°C. (anaη rel ) / C=[(75K0 2 ) / (1+1.5K0C)〕+K0 K=1000K0 Here, C is the mass % of component (D) in the aqueous solution of (D), and η rel is the viscosity of the aqueous solution of (D) relative to the viscosity of water. When the K value is 19 or less, the (D) component in the aqueous solution of (D) is measured at 2% by mass, and when the K value is greater than 19, the (D) component in the aqueous solution of (D) is measured at 1% by mass.
