Description

OA24217 COSMETIC COMPOSITION INCLUDING AN ALOE-TREATED COLORANT CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0001] This application claims benefit of U.S. Non Provisional Application No.18 / 734,661, filed June 5, 2024, and French Patent Application No. 2408310, filed July 26, 2024, which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The present disclosure is drawn to the field of cosmetic compositions, and specifically, to cosmetic compositions including colorant and having reduced color shift. BACKGROUND

[0003] Cosmetic formulations including colorant, particularly colorants that include dye may be susceptible to shifting appearance of the color over time, particularly in compositions that are liquid. The present inventors have found this to be the case with cosmetic compositions having a continuous fatty phase. This can be problematic as consumers typically desire products that will have a predictable color appearance on keratinous substrates to which it is applied (e.g., skin, lips, nails, and the like). Accordingly, a need exists for improved color stability for cosmetic systems. BRIEF SUMMARY

[0004] A cosmetic composition including a continuous fatty phase that includes one or more fatty substances and a colorant dispersed in the fatty phase is provided. The colorant includes a substrate, at least one dye, and a surface treatment including aloe. The substrate may include at least one xanthene dye, such as disodium 2',4',5',7'-tetrabromo-4,5,6,7-tetrachlorofluorescein. The substrate may include at least one metal salt such as an aluminum salt.

[0005] The colorant further includes a surface treatment that includes aloe. The aloe of the surface treatment may be present in a concentration by weight in the composition that is less than the concentration by weight of the substrate in the cosmetic composition.

[0006] The surface treatment may be a hydrophobic surface treatment and may further include one or more vegetable fatty compounds, such as a coconut oil.OA24217

[0007] The colorant may be present in the composition in a concentration by weight that is from about 0.01 % to about 10%.

[0008] The cosmetic composition is, in certain embodiments, substantially free of water. In certain embodiments the cosmetic composition is liquid. In certain embodiments the composition includes an internal polyol phase within an external fatty phase. In certain other embodiments the composition further includes a fatty acid ester of a polyol. In certain other embodiments the composition further includes one or more film-forming polymers. In certain embodiments, the composition is substantially free of C1-C4 monoalcohols and C1-C4 monoacetates. In certain embodiments, the compostion further includes a UV-stabilizing compound such as one selected from piperidinols, benzotriazoles, and combinations thereof. According to certain other embodiments, the composition includes at least about 35% by weight of fatty substances. According to certain other embodiments, the composition exhibits at least a 35% improvement in color change reduction (such as from 40% improvement to 70% improvement), where % Improvement = (ΔEu,ns- ΔEsample) / ΔEu,ns, versus an identical composition except with (1) the colorant having no surface treatment, and (2) having no UV-stabilizers, when tested according to methods described herein.

[0009] According to certain other embodiments, the composition includes a plurality of or even all of the limitations specified above.

[0010] According to another aspect of the invention, a method of the above-described cosmetic compositions includes providing the cosmetic composition and applying the cosmetic composition to a lip, skin, or nails, such as for example to provide a cosmetically enhanced appearance. Application to the lips is particularly notable. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0011] As used herein, articles such as “a” and “an” as used herein, are understood to mean one or more of what is claimed or described.

[0012] As used herein, the expression "at least one" means one or more and thus includes individual components as well as mixtures / combinations.

[0013] All percentages, parts and ratios are based upon the total weight of the compositions of the present invention unless otherwise indicated. Other than in the operating examples, or where otherwise indicated, all numbers expressing quantities (e.g., concentrations, ratios, and the like) ofOA24217 ingredients and / or reaction conditions are to be understood as being modified in certain embodiments by the term “about,” meaning within 10% to 15% of the indicated number (e.g. “about 10%” means 8.5% to 11.5% such as 9% to 11%, and “about 2%” means from 1.7% to 2.3 such as from 1.8% to 2.2%).

[0014] Similarly, for ratios, the modifier “about” means within 10% or 15% of the ratio. For example, about 4:1 means from 3.4:1 to 4.6:1, preferably 3.6:1 to 4.4:1. As readily understood by one skilled in the art, where the first ingredient in a ratio is less than the second, then a ratio may be expressed “inversely.” For example, if a second ingredient, B is present in an amount or concentration that is 2.5 times greater than that of ingredient A, this may be identified as an A:B ratio of 1:2.5. “About 1:10,” means from 1:8.5 to 1:11.5, preferably 1:9 to 1:11. As one skilled in the art will understand, the modifier “about” also encompasses the exact number or ratio specified. Unless otherwise indicated, all concentrations shown as percentages are concentrations by weight and also, unless otherwise indicated, relate to the entire composition as a whole.

[0015] As used herein, the term “between” two number is intended to be inclusive of the bounding numbers. Thus, between 0 and 1 would include both 0 and 1.

[0016] Numerical ranges, unless specifically stated otherwise, are inclusive of endpoints and meant to include all combinations and sub-combinations. Notably, from about 5%, 10% or 15% to about 20%, 50% or 60% may refer to about 5% to about 20%, about 5% to about 50%, about 5% to about 60%, about 10% to about 20%, about 10% to about 50%, about 10% to about 60%, about 15% to about 20%, about 15% to about 50%, or about 15% to about 60%. Further as used herein a range of ratios is meant to include every specific ratio within, and combination of subranges between the given ranges.

[0017] As used herein, the terms “include”, “includes” and “including” are meant to be non- limiting.

[0018] As used herein, the term “substantially free (of an ingredient)” means that the composition contains less than 1%, such as less than 0.5% of the identified ingredient, such as less than 0.3% of the identified ingredient. The term “essentially free (of an ingredient)” means the composition contains less than 0.25%, such as less than 0.1% of the identified ingredient, preferably below detectable amounts of the identified ingredient, and most preferably none of the identified ingredient.OA24217

[0019] The term “anhydrous”, as used herein, refers to a composition that is substantially free of or essentially free of water.

[0020] The disclosed compositions surprisingly provide improved color stability as they are less susceptible to color changes than compositions of the prior art. When used according to certain embodiments, in a composition having an internal phase including polyol such as a polyol-in oil emulsion, the compositions can further provide a low tack sensory feel.

[0185] EXAMPLES

[0186] Example I

[0187] Six compositions were made that included Red 28 pigment with and without various surface treatments. This includes one exemplary formula (Ex. 1) and five comparative formulas (Comp. 1, Comp.2, and Comp.3, Comp.4, Comp.5). See Table 1, below. The samples were prepared by first preparing 10% by weight pigment premixes by adding 10% by weight pigment to pentaerythrityl tetraisosterate. Separately, mixtures of additional oils and polymers, fatty compounds and other ingredients was blended at to about 90ºC. After mixing and cooling these to room temperature, the appropriate pigment premixes was then added to form the compositions as detailed in Table 1.

[0188] The color change, ΔE was determined using the following Color Stability Test.

[0189] An Atlas Suntest CPS+ material testing weathering device (Ametek, Mount Prospect, IL) was used. Samples were placed in representative clear commercial lip gloss packaging. Duplicate samples were created for each testing parameter. One product (the control) was shielded from sunOA24217 exposure in a closed / dark box and the other sample was used to run in the sun chamber to simulate UV and heat exposure with a controlled intensity and exposure time (765 W / m2for 24 hours).

[0190] The color stability in pack before and after sun test is assessed by using a DigiEye 700mm cube instrument (VeriVede Enderby, Leicester, UK). The pictures of the samples are taken in a controlled light box. the color shift analysis is performed with calibrated camera / software. For each composition, L*a*b* values were read and used to determine the ΔE as an indication of color shifting. A lower ΔE means there has been less color shift, while higher ΔE values indicate a higher level of color shift. Control (non UV exposed sample) were compared to the ΔE for the sample subjected to sun testing, thereby determining the amount of fading for each composition resulting from the sun testing.

[0191] The measured color change, ΔE is also shown in Table 1, as is the calculated percent improvement (%) over untreated pigment with no UV-stabilizers (“u, ns”), Comp.5. % Improvement (versus untreated) = (ΔEu,ns- ΔEsample) / ΔEu,ns

[0192] For the calculations ΔEu,nsis 33.66.

[0195] It can be seen that the aloe treated pigment performs substantially better than untreated pigment as well as compared to alternative surface treatments.

[0196] Example II

[0197] Additionally, other compositions were made that included Red 28 pigment with and without various surface treatments, and further included UV stabilizer. The UV-stabilizer included tris(tetramethylhydroxypiperidonol) citrate (TINOGARD Q, also from BASF). The compositions are shown in Table 2 below. Components other than colorants were otherwise as shown in Table 1. The identity of pigments 1-6 are also described above. Pigment 5 was not tested (N / T).

[0203] Example III

[0204] Additionally, other compositions were made that included Red 28 pigment with and without various surface treatments, and further included various UV stabilizers. The UV- stabilizers included both tris(tetramethylhydroxypiperidonol) citrate (TINOGARD Q, also from BASF) and benzotriazol dodedcyl p-cresol (TINOGARD TL from BASF). The compositions are shown in Table 3 below. Components other than colorants were otherwise as shown in Table 1. The identity of pigments 1-6 are also described above.

[0211] Additionally, other compositions were made that included Red 28 pigment with and without various surface treatments, and further included various UV stabilizers. The UV- stabilizers included only benzotriazol dodedcyl p-cresol (TINOGARD TL from BASF). The compositions are shown in Table 4 below. Components other than colorants were otherwise as shown in Table 1. The identity of pigments 1-6 are also described above.
