Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a W / O type emulsion composition suitable for cosmetics and the like.

Background Art

[0002] A W / O type emulsion composition (water-in-oil type emulsion composition) has a high occlusion effect because an oily component is present in the continuous phase and has advantages such as high moisturizing property. On the other hand, the W / O type emulsion composition has problems such as poor elongation, usability such as a moist feeling of the skin after application, and a tendency to become sticky after a long time of application.

[0003] In Patent Document 1, attempts have been proposed to improve the usability by a formulation combining specific polymers that form a hydrogel. However, there is a demand for a W / O type emulsion composition having even better usability.

[0004] Compositions containing silicone oil and hydrophobized colored pigments are known (for example, Patent Document 2). However, Patent Document 2 does not describe the improvement of the usability and makeup durability of a W / O type emulsion composition by a combination of specific silicone oil and hydrophobized colored pigments.

Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[0010] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described. <W / O type emulsion composition> One aspect of the present invention relates to a W / O type emulsion composition (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "the W / O type emulsion composition of the present invention") containing the following components (A), (B) and (C). (A) Lauryl PEG-9 polydimethylsiloxyethyl dimethicone (B) PEG / PPG-19 / 19 dimethicone (C) Hydrophobically treated colored pigment

[0011] The present inventors have conducted various studies to find a technique for improving the usability and makeup persistence of W / O type emulsion compositions. Among them, the present inventors succeeded in creating a W / O type emulsion composition excellent in usability and makeup persistence by combining lauryl PEG-9 polydimethylsiloxyethyl dimethicone, which is a silicone-branched polyether-modified silicone, and PEG / PPG-19 / 19 dimethicone, which is a poly(oxyethylene·oxypropylene)methyl polysiloxane copolymer, with a hydrophobically treated colored pigment. Based on such findings, the present invention has been completed.

One or more hydrophobized coloring pigments of component (C) can be used in the present invention. As the hydrophobized coloring pigment of component (C), for example, a commercially available coloring pigment that has been hydrophobized by the method shown below can be used.

[0020] The coloring pigments to be hydrophobicized are not particularly limited and can be used as long as they are coloring pigments that can be normally incorporated into cosmetics, etc. Examples include metal oxides and hydroxides such as titanium dioxide, fine-particle titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, fine-particle zinc oxide, cerium oxide, aluminum oxide, yellow iron oxide, black iron oxide, red iron oxide, chromium hydroxide, chromium oxide, sulfides, chromates, silicates such as ultramarine, sulfates, carbonates, ferrocyanides such as Prussian blue, phosphates such as manganese violet, and inorganic pigments such as carbon black; organic pigments such as tar-based dyes; and natural pigments. As component (C), metal oxides and hydroxides are preferred, with titanium dioxide, yellow iron oxide, black iron oxide, and red iron oxide being more preferred. The shape of the coloring pigment is not particularly limited and may be spherical, nearly spherical, rod-shaped, spindle-shaped, petal-shaped, strip-shaped, or irregularly shaped.

Hydrophobic treatment can be used in the present invention by using one or more types of treatment in combination.

[0022] The hydrophobic treatment of the colored pigment can be carried out by conventional surface treatment methods, such as dry treatment or wet treatment.

Alternatively, after thoroughly mixing and contacting the colored pigment and the hydrophobic treatment agent, the process may be carried out by separately applying energy such as heating, mechanical force, or superheated steam. This may be done. Also, when mixing / contacting the hydrophobic agent with the colored pigment, in order to improve the dispersion efficiency of the hydrophobic agent, the hydrophobic agent may be pre-dissolved or dispersed in an arbitrary amount of water, solvent, or supercritical fluid, and then sprayed onto the colored pigment. As a wet method, the colored pigment and the hydrophobic agent can be dispersed in water, solvent, or supercritical fluid, mixed / contacted, and then the solvent can be evaporated, and optionally, energy such as heating, mechanical force, or superheated steam can be applied to carry out the treatment. The amount of hydrophobic treatment (coating) is preferably 0.1 to 20% by mass, more preferably 0.5 to 15% by mass, and even more preferably 1 to 10% by mass, relative to the mass of the coloring pigment.

When two or more types of component (C) are used in combination, the above content refers to the total amount of the two or more types. The blending ratio of the two or more types can be appropriately adjusted according to the feel of the composition and the durability of the cosmetic. The content of the hydrophobized colored pigment in component (C) refers to the mass including the hydrophobized agent.

[0024] Furthermore, the mass ratio of the total of components (A) and (B) to component (C) in the present invention, ((A)+(B)) / (C), is preferably 0.05 to 20, more preferably 0.1 to 10, more preferably 0.3 to 5, and even more preferably 0.5 to 2.5, from the viewpoint of the feel of the composition and the longevity of the cosmetic product.
