Description

ANHYDROUS LIQUID COMPOSITION COMPRISING SQUALANE, DIMER ACID DERIVATIVES, PASTY COMPOUNDS AND A MINERAL THICKENER, AND METHOD USING SAME

[0001] The present invention relates to liquid compositions for application to the lips, comprising squalane, a dimer fatty acid derivative compound and a mineral thickener, and to a cosmetic method in which such a composition is applied.

[0002] Until some time ago, makeup and skincare products belonged to two very different fields. On the one hand there were lip balms, very often in the form of solid compositions, one of the roles of which is to form a protective barrier on the lips, in order notably to prevent or limit water loss. Usually, the deposits are quite greasy, and colourless or slightly tinted. On the other hand, there were makeup compositions, with a multitude of presentation forms, ranging from liquid to solid compositions, either anhydrous or in the form of an emulsion. As for the effects observed after application of these compositions, here too a wide range could be obtained, ranging from non-covering deposits or, on the contrary, highly covering deposits, with shiny to matte results. Increasingly technical products then appeared, providing a long wear property, no colour transfer, ultra-matte properties, etc. In general, these results are obtained by using film-forming polymers such as silicone polymers, volatile oils at a high content, fillers, and combinations thereof. On the other hand, the use of such ingredients and the achievement of these performance characteristics were accompanied by drawbacks, such as a decrease in comfort, in particular due to the tackiness of the deposit, feelings of tightness or dryness of the lips, which further accentuates the difference between these two types of compositions.

[0003] For some time now, this boundary between the makeup and skincare fields has been tending to fade away at the instigation of consumers who want to have hybrid products, providing both skincare and colouring effects with good performance characteristics.

[0004] Also for some years now, consumers have been more attentive to the ingredients used in the compositions, and to the natural, in particular skin-friendly and environmentally-friendly, nature thereof. This is why it is increasingly frequently sought to do away with using raw materials such as those derived from the transformation of petroleum, or else silicones, conventionally used up to that point, without however detriment to the performance characteristics of the compositions.

[0005] Thus, the formulation of environmentally-friendly cosmetic products, i.e. products whose design and development take account of environmental issues, is becoming a major preoccupation for contributing towards meeting the global challenges. It is therefore essential to propose more sustainable compositions and / or preparation processes and / or ingredients, thus enabling these environmental challenges to be met.

[0006] In this context, it is important to develop novel cosmetic compositions with a better carbon footprint, notably by promoting the use of starting materials that are renewable and / or that have a good naturalness index and / or that are of natural origin and more particularly of plant origin, while reducing the use of compounds of petrochemical origin.

[0007] The present invention is in line with these new trends and relates more particularly to liquid compositions, in particular for making up and / or caring for the lips, favouring the use of natural compounds or compounds of natural origin, in particular plant origin. Moreover, the compositions according to the invention advantageously make it possible to limit, or even to dispense with, liquid or solid ingredients derived from petroleum chemistry, or silicone ingredients.

[0008] These aims and others are achieved by the present invention, a subject of which is thus liquid cosmetic compositions comprising:* squalane;* at least one first compound chosen from polyesters obtained at least from at least one monounsaturated or polyunsaturated dimer fatty acid; the fatty acid comprising from 16 to 22 carbon atoms;* at least one second compound, which is solid at room temperature, chosenfrom plant butters, polyesters resulting from the condensation of a linear or branched C6-C10dicarboxylic acid and an ester of diglycerol and optionally hydroxylated, linear or branched C6-C20monocarboxylic acids; and also mixtures thereof;* at least one polar nonvolatile hydrocarbon oil, different from the first compound(s);* at least one mineral thickener;* optionally water at a content not exceeding 2% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.

[0009] The invention also relates to a makeup and / or skincare method in which the composition defined above is applied to human keratin materials, in particular to the lips.

[0010] The present invention makes it possible to obtain a stable, liquid (so not solid) composition, which is applied very easily to the lips, as a precise, uniform and glossy deposit. The resulting deposit also exhibits a particularly notable comfort, providing a “cushion” effect, with good moisturization and a feeling of lip protection.

[0011] The deposit has little or no tackiness, is not runny, is very shiny and very comfortable, with no oily feeling.

[0012] These advantages, and others, of the present invention will become more clearly apparent on reading the description and the examples which will follow.

[0013] It should be noted that, in the remainder of the description, unless otherwise indicated, the limits indicated for a range are included in said range.

[0014] The expressions “at least one” and “several” are used without distinction.

[0015] In addition, the sum of the amounts of the ingredients of the composition represents 100% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.Protocol for measuring the viscosity

[0016] The viscosity is measured according to the following protocol:The composition is stored at 25°C for 16 hours before measuring the viscosity.The viscosity measurement is performed at 25°C, using a Rheomat RM 1180 viscometer equipped with a No. 4 spindle, the measurement being performed after 10 minutes of rotation of the spindle in the composition, at a shear rate of 200 revolutions / min (rpm).

[0017] In particular, the viscosity at 25°C of a composition according to the invention is between 2 and 14 Pa.s, preferably between 5 and 11 Pa.s.Protocol for measuring the gloss

[0018] The gloss of the composition is measured according to the following protocol:The sample is spread as a 50.8 µm film on a Byko Chart 2A® or Penopac 1A® contrast card from the company BYK using an automatic film spreader of the Byko-Drive XL® type from the company BYK equipped with a film spreading bar such as a 5353® variable gap clearance square frame from the company BYK, set for a gap clearance of 50.8 µm.

[0019] The contrast card is placed on the applicator platform and the 50.8 µm gap side of the bar is placed on the contrast card at the information area to be filled in. About 2 g of product are deposited directly in front of the bar. The automatic applicator is started and the bar is moved to ensure that an even film of the required thickness is deposited.

[0020] The film is left to dry at 25°C for 15 minutes.

[0021] The gloss of the film applied to the black areas of the contrast card is measured at an incident angle of 60° and expressed in Gloss Units.

[0022] The gloss unit is a gloss meter scale (example: Rhopoint IQ-S® from Konica Minolta), based on a reference standard of highly polished black glass with a defined refractive index and a specular reflectance of 100 gloss units at a given angle, with the minimum point set to 0 for a perfectly matte surface.

[0023] The measurement can be repeated over time to evaluate the gloss persistence.

[0024] The composition is considered glossy for the purposes of the invention when the gloss value is at least 60, and preferably at least 70.Protocol for measuring the tack:

[0025] Equipment used:- TA-XT plus Texture Analyser, Texas Instruments- Strip of white Supplale 150 mm × 25 mm (Soudotique, reference: DFSUP15025B)- Circle of white Supplale 38 mm in diameter (Soudotique, reference: DESUPDIAM38B)

[0026] Sample preparation:- Define, on a strip of Supplale, the length of the deposit (10 cm).- Weigh the strip of Supplale.- Remove the gloss applicator without wiping the excess on the edges of the container and apply the composition over the determined length, always in the same direction (i.e.: once at the end of the area to be made up, lift the applicator and reposition it at the beginning of the area) in as many passes as necessary, without turning the applicator over, so as to have a uniform distribution of the composition (= application 1).- Turn the strip of Supplale around (the beginning of the area to be made up becomes the opposite end, and vice versa), take a fresh amount of composition in the same way as in the previous step and apply it in the same way as in the previous step (= application 2).- Turn the strip of Supplale around to return it to the position of step 1 and repeat steps 1 and 2 (= 4 applications in total).- Weigh the strip of Supplale with the 4 applications of the deposit.- Leave to dry for 1 hour on a hotplate at 32°C.- Weigh the strip after drying.

[0027] Measurement:- Fasten the made-up strip to the plate of the texture analyser (double-sided tape).- Fasten a circle of white Supplale in the measuring spindle.- Take 2 measurements at the centre of the sample, at two different locations.

[0028] The parameters of the compression tests with the hold times are given below:

[0029] Approach speed (or pre-speed)1 mm / sSpeed (from the detection of contact)0.5 mm / sForce800 gContact time5 secondsWithdrawal speed (or post-speed)40 mm / s

[0030] The tack corresponds to the area under the curve, given in g / s.SQUALANE

[0031] The composition according to the invention comprises an oil which is a squalane, preferably plant squalane.

[0032] For the purposes of the invention, the term “oil” means a lipophilic compound that is liquid at room temperature.

[0033] Squalane is a branched hydrocarbon oil which is nonpolar, i.e. comprising only carbon and hydrogen atoms.

[0034] This oil corresponds more particularly to the following formula:

[0035] (I)

[0036] It is preferred to use squalane obtained from plants, in general such as olives, or else more recently sugar cane.

[0037] Squalane is sold, for example, by Biosynthis under the name Squalive, by EFP Biotek under the name Olive Squalane and by Amyris under the name Neossance Squalane.

[0038] Advantageously, the content of squalane represents from 5% to 40% by weight, more particularly from 8% to 30% by weight, in particular from 10% to 25% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.FIRST POLYESTER COMPOUND

[0039] As indicated above, the composition according to the invention comprises at least one first compound chosen from polyesters obtained at least from a monounsaturated or polyunsaturated dimer fatty acid; the fatty acid comprising from 16 to 22 carbon atoms.

[0040] Advantageously, the content of first compound(s) represents from 5% to 30% by weight, more particularly from 5% to 25% by weight, in particular from 7% to 20% by weight, preferably from 10% to 20% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.

[0041] More particularly, said first polyester compounds are dimer dilinoleic acid esters of polyol(s) or an ester thereof. The expression “an ester thereof” is intended to denote one of the derivatives of these dimer dilinoleic acid esters of polyol(s) obtained either by reaction of alcohol function(s) of the polyol, which are not involved in ester-type bonds with carboxylic acid functions of the dilinoleic acid, with one or more carboxylic functions of acid molecules other than dilinoleic acid or by reaction of carboxylic acid function(s) of the dimer dilinoleic acid, which are not involved in ester-type bonds with alcohol functions of the polyol, with alcohol functions of alcohol molecules other than the polyol.Dimer dilinoleic acid

[0042] The dimer dilinoleic acid may be obtained by polymerization reaction, notably by intermolecular dimerization of a linoleic acid.

[0043] The oxidation stability of the compound may be improved by hydrogenating the carbon-carbon double bonds remaining after the dimerization reaction.

[0044] The dimer dilinoleic acid can also be obtained by dimerization of the hydrogenated form of linoleic acid.

[0045] The hydrogenated form of the acid or of the diacid may be partial or total, and may correspond, for example, to the saturated form, which is more oxidation-stable.

[0046] As indicated above, the carboxylic functions of the dimer dilinoleic acid residue not involved in the ester bond with the polyol residue(s) may be involved in other ester bonds with other alcohol functions of alcohol molecules other than the polyol(s).

[0047] These alcohol molecules or residues may be monoalcohols or polyols.Monoalcohols

[0048] As examples of alcohol residues that are suitable for use in the invention, mention may be made of hydrocarbon compounds comprising a hydroxyl function and containing from 4 to 40 carbon atoms, in particular from 6 to 36 carbon atoms, in particular from 8 to 32 carbon atoms, in particular from 16 to 28 carbon atoms and more particularly from 18 to 24 carbon atoms.

[0049] As examples of monoalcohols that are suitable for the invention, mention may be made, in a non-limiting manner, of butanol, pentanol, propanol, hexanol, heptanol, octanol, decanol, dodecanol, hexadecanol, octadecanol, eicosadecanol, phytosterol, isostearol, stearol, cetol, behenol, etc.Polyols

[0050] The term “polyol” is intended to denote any hydrocarbon compound comprising at least two hydroxyl functions and containing from 3 to 40 carbon atoms, in particular from 6 to 36 carbon atoms, in particular from 8 to 32 carbon atoms, in particular from 16 to 28 carbon atoms and more particularly from 18 to 24 carbon atoms.

[0051] The hydrocarbon chains may be interrupted, where appropriate, by the presence of at least one heteroatom, and especially an oxygen atom.

[0052] A polyol or a polyol ester that is suitable for use in the present invention may comprise, for example, from 2 to 12 hydroxyl functions, in particular from 2 to 8 hydroxyl functions, and more particularly from 4 to 6 hydroxyl functions.

[0053] Where appropriate, the hydroxyl functions, other than those already employed in an ester bond with the dimer dilinoleic acid, may also be employed, wholly or partly with other ester bonds via reactivity with acid molecules other than the dimer dilinoleic acid.

[0054] The polyol or an ester thereof that is suitable for use in the present invention may be chosen especially from linear, branched, cyclic or polycyclic, saturated or unsaturated alcohols.

[0055] Thus, the polyol may be chosen, for example, from a diol, a triol, a tetraol, or a pentaol, or an ester thereof.

[0056] The polyol may be a diol, or an ester thereof, chosen in particular from a fatty alcohol dimer, a C2-C4monoalkylene or polyalkylene glycol, 1,4-butanediol and pentaerythritol. It can also be a monoglycerol or polyglycerol or an ester thereof, or hydrogenated or non-hydrogenated castor oil (triglyceride of a hydroxy acid).

[0057] As examples of diols that may also be suitable for use in the invention, mention may be made, in a non-exhaustive manner, of butanediol, pentanediol, propanediol, hexanediol, hexylene glycol, heptanediol, octanediol, nonanediol, decanediol, undecanediol, dodecanediol, tridecanediol, tetradecanediol, pentadecanediol, hexadecanediol, nonadecanediol, octadecanediol, cyclohexanediol, diglycerol, erythritol, pentaerythritol, xylitol, sorbitol, ethylene glycol and xylene glycol, and isomers thereof.

[0058] A dimer fatty alcohol may also be the product of hydrogenation, for example catalytic hydrogenation, of a dimer fatty acid, which is itself obtained by dimerization of an unsaturated, notably C8to C34, notably C12to C22, in particular C16to C20and more particularly C18, fatty acid.

[0059] According to a particular embodiment, the dimer fatty alcohol can be a dimer diol derived from the hydrogenation of dilinoleic diacid. It is generally in a saturated form.

[0060] Preferably, the polyol is a dimer fatty alcohol such as, for example, dimer dilinoleol (Dimer Dilinoleyl Alcohol: INCI name).

[0061] As an example of a diol that may be suitable for use in the invention, mention may be made especially of diglycerol. This compound is a glycerol dimer resulting from the condensation of two molecules of glycerol, with the loss of a water molecule. The term “diglycerol” denotes any isomer combination that can result from such a condensation, for instance linear isomers, branched isomers and, where appropriate, cyclic isomers resulting from an intramolecular dehydration of a diglycerol molecule. The diglycerol may be obtained via any process known to those skilled in the art and especially those described in patent EP 0 750 848.

[0062] As examples of acid molecules that can interact with one or more hydroxyl functions of the polyol, not employed in the ester bond with the dimer dilinoleic acid, mention may be made, in a non-limiting manner, of molecules derived from isostearic acid, behenic acid, phytosteric acid, stearic acid, hydroxystearic acid or cetylic acid.

[0063] A polyester that is suitable for use in the present invention may be obtained by reacting a polyol or an ester thereof with a dimer dilinoleic acid, in a molar ratio of about 1.0 : 0.2-1.0.

[0064] A polyester that may be suitable for use in the present invention may notably be obtained by reacting a dimer dilinoleic acid with a dilinoleol and, where appropriate, at least one additional monoalcohol, notably chosen from behenol, isostearol, sterol, notably phytosterol, stearol, cetol, and mixtures thereof.

[0065] Thus, a polyester used in the context of the present invention may be used in the form of a mixture of various esters, for example.

[0066] A polyester that is suitable for the invention may also be obtained by reacting a diglycerol, an isostearic acid and a dimer dilinoleic acid, especially, in a molar ratio of 1.0 : 0.2-1.0 : 0.5-0.9.

[0067] A polyester that is suitable for the invention may likewise be obtained by reacting with a hydrogenated dimer acid, an ester compound resulting from the reaction of a polyglycerol with a degree of polymerization ranging from 2 to 4, with 12-hydroxystearic acid. For example, the polyester can be obtained by reacting diglycerol, 12-hydroxystearic acid and dimer dilinoleic acid in a molar ratio of 1 : 1-3 : 0.3-0.8.

[0068] According to another embodiment, the polyester is a copolymer resulting from the esterification, with a polycarboxylic acid, of an aliphatic hydroxycarboxylic acid ester. The molar ratio between the polycarboxylic acid and the hydroxy ester used for preparing the polyester according to the invention is preferably between 0.25 and 1. Mention may in particular be made of the ester resulting from the esterification reaction of hydrogenated castor oil with dilinoleic acid in proportions of 2 to 1.

[0069] The polyesters which have just been mentioned are described in particular in applications FR2795309, JP2003-226609, JP2004-256515, JP2005-179377, JP2007284371 and JP2011-020933.

[0070] Among the polyesters that are suitable, mention may be made of the polyesters with the following INCI name: Dimer Dilinoleyl Dimer Dilinoleate, sold for example under the trade names Lusplan® DD-DA5 and DD-DA7.

[0071] Mention may also be made of the polyesters with the following INCI name: Polyglyceryl-2 Isostearate / Dimer Dilinoleate Copolymer, sold for example under the name Hailucent® ISDA, by the company Nippon Fine Chemical.

[0072] Mention may also be made of the compounds with the INCI names: Dilinoleic Acid / Butanediol Copolymer, sold in particular under the name Viscoplast® 14436H, and Dilinoleic Acid / Propanediol Copolymer, Viscoplast® Green 3000, sold by the company Biosynthis.

[0073] Also suitable are the polyesters with the following INCI names: Bis-Behenyl / Isostearyl / Phytosteryl Dimer Dilinoleyl Dimer Dilinoleate, Phytosteryl / Isostearyl / Cetyl / Stearyl / Behenyl Dimer Dilinoleate, and also mixtures thereof. These polyesters are sold in particular by the company Nippon Fine Chemical under the names Plandool® G, Plandool® H and Plandool® S.

[0074] Mention may also be made of the polyesters with the INCI names: Hydrogenated Castor Oil Dimer Dilinoleate and Diglycerin / Dilinoleic Acid / Hydroxystearic Acid Copolymer, sold respectively under the names Risocast® DA-H or DA-L and Risocast® HSDA by the company Kokyu Alcohol Kogyo Co.

[0075] In accordance with a first embodiment of the invention, the first compound is chosen from polyesters that are solid at 20°C.

[0076] More particularly, these compounds are chosen from pasty compounds.

[0077] For the purposes of the present invention, the term “pasty compound” means a lipophilic fatty compound having, at a temperature of 20-25°C, a liquid fraction and a solid fraction. Thus, a pasty compound may have an initial melting point of less than 20-25°C. The pasty compound is also a compound with a reversible solid / liquid change of state.

[0078] The melting point (or melting temperature) of the pasty fatty compound can be measured using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), for example the calorimeter sold under the name DSC Q2000 by TA Instruments.

[0079] The protocol is as follows:A sample of 5 mg of the solid compound placed in a crucible is subjected to a first temperature rise ranging from -20°C to 100°C, at a heating rate of 10°C / minute, it is then cooled from 100°C to -20°C at a cooling rate of 10°C / minute and is finally subjected to a second temperature rise ranging from -20°C to 100°C at a heating rate of 5°C / minute.The melting point of said solid fatty compound is the value of the temperature corresponding to the top of the peak on the curve representing the variation in the difference in power absorbed as a function of the temperature.It should be noted that the liquid fraction by weight of the pasty fatty substance at room temperature is equal to the ratio of the heat of fusion consumed at room temperature to the heat of fusion of the pasty fatty substance.The heat of fusion of the pasty fatty substance is the heat consumed by said substance in order to pass from the solid state to the liquid state. The pasty fatty substance is said to be in the solid state when all of its mass is in solid, notably crystalline, form. The pasty fatty substance is said to be in the liquid state when all of its mass is in liquid form.The heat of fusion of the pasty fatty substance is the amount of energy required to make the pasty fatty substance pass from the solid state to the liquid state. It is expressed in J / g. The heat of fusion of the pasty fatty substance is equal to the area under the curve of the thermogram obtained.

[0080] According to this embodiment, the first compound is more particularly chosen from the polyesters with the following INCI names: Bis-Behenyl / Isostearyl / Phytosteryl Dimer Dilinoleyl Dimer Dilinoleate, Phytosteryl / Isostearyl / Cetyl / Stearyl / Behenyl Dimer Dilinoleate, Hydrogenated Castor Oil Dimer Dilinoleate, Diglycerin / Dilinoleic Acid / Hydroxystearic Acid Copolymer, and mixtures thereof, preferably the first compound is chosen at least from Bis-Behenyl / Isostearyl / Phytosteryl Dimer Dilinoleyl Dimer Dilinoleate, Phytosteryl / Isostearyl / Cetyl / Stearyl / Behenyl Dimer Dilinoleate, and mixtures thereof.

[0081] According to this embodiment, the content of first solid compound(s) represents from 5% to 10% by weight, more particularly from 5% to 7% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.

[0082] In accordance with a second embodiment of the invention, the first compound is chosen from polyesters that are liquid at 20°C.

[0083] According to this embodiment, the first compound is chosen from the polyesters with the following INCI names: Dimer Dilinoleyl Dimer Dilinoleate, Polyglyceryl-2 Isostearate / Dimer Dilinoleate Copolymer, Dilinoleic Acid / Butanediol Copolymer, Dilinoleic Acid / Propanediol Copolymer and mixtures thereof, preferably the first compound is at least chosen from Dimer Dilinoleyl Dimer Dilinoleate.

These compounds are chosen from plant butters or butters derived from plant oils, polyesters resulting from the condensation of a linear or branched C6-C10dicarboxylic acid and an ester of diglycerol and optionally hydroxylated, linear or branched C6-C20monocarboxylic acids; and also mixtures thereof.

[0087] According to a first variant, the second solid hydrocarbon compound is chosen from plant butters, such as, for example, mango butter (INCI name: Mangifera Indica (Mango) Seed Butter), such as the product sold under the reference Trivent Mango Butter by Alzo, shea butter (INCI name: Butyrospermum Parkii Butter), as sold under the references Lipex® 102 and Lipex® Shea, by AarhusKarlshamn, cupuacu butter (INCI name: Theobroma Grandiflorum Seed Butter), sold for example under the name Rain Forest 03410 by Beraca Sabara, murumuru butter (INCI name: Astrocaryum Murumuru Seed Butter), sold in particular under the reference RAIN FOREST® 03710 by Beraca Sabara, cocoa butter (INCI name: Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa) Seed Butter) sold for example under the reference PPP Cocoa Butter Deodorised by Dutch Cocoa, jojoba butter (INCI name: Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Butter) sold in particular by Desert Whale under the name Iso Jojoba 50, and also mixtures thereof.

[0088] Among the solid hydrocarbon compounds that are suitable, mention may also be made of butters derived from plant oils such as the compounds with the following INCI names: Hydrogenated Vegetable oil, sold in particular under the name Akogel®by AarhusKarlshamn,under the name Cegesoft® HF 52 by BASF,Hydrogenated Coco Glycerides, sold in particular under the name Softisan® 100 by IOI Oleo, partially hydrogenated olive oil, sold for example under the reference Beurrolive® by Soliance (INCI name: Hydrogenated Olive Oil), and mixtures thereof.

[0092] Preferably, the second compound(s) / first compound(s) weight ratio varies between 0.5 and 4, more particularly between 0.8 and 3.5, preferably between 0.9 and 3.2.POLAR NONVOLATILE HYDROCARBON OIL

[0093] The composition according to the invention comprises at least one polar nonvolatile hydrocarbon oil, different from the first compound(s).

[0094] A “nonvolatile oil” denotes water-insoluble fatty compounds that are liquid at 20°C and atmospheric pressure (1.013 × 105Pa) with a vapour pressure at 20°C that is non-zero and less than 2.66 Pa, more particularly less than or equal to 0.13 Pa. By way of example, the vapour pressure may be measured via the static method or via the effusion method by isothermal thermogravimetry, depending on the vapour pressure (OECD standard 104).

[0095] A “hydrocarbon oil” is understood as meaning an oil formed essentially from, or even constituted of, carbon and hydrogen atoms, and also comprising at least one atom of oxygen, optionally of nitrogen. Since this oil does not contain any silicon atoms, it is therefore distinct from silicone oils. It may contain one or more alcohol, ester, ether, carboxylic acid, carbonate, amine and / or amide groups.

[0096] The polar nonvolatile hydrocarbon oil may be more particularly chosen from C10-C26 alcohols; ester oils, comprising one or more ester functions and comprising at least one linear or branched, saturated, unsaturated or aromatic hydrocarbon group, the total number of carbon atoms preferably being at least 12; ethers of formula ROR’, carbonates of formula RO(CO)OR’, in which formulae, which may or may not be identical, the R and R’ groups represent a saturated or unsaturated, branched or unbranched, preferably C3-C16, hydrocarbon group comprising at most 16 carbon atoms; and also mixtures thereof.C10-C26 alcohols

[0097] The alcohols are more particularly alcohols which comprise a linear or branched, saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon radical comprising 10 to 26 carbon atoms, preferably comprising from 10 to 24 carbon atoms and more preferentially from 12 to 22 carbon atoms. They are preferably monohydroxylated.

[0098] Preferably, said alcohol(s) are chosen from lauryl alcohol, isostearyl alcohol, oleyl alcohol, 2-butyloctanol, 2-undecylpentadecanol, 2-hexyldecyl alcohol, isocetyl alcohol, octyldodecanol and mixtures thereof, preferably octyldodecanol.Ester oils

[0099] A polar hydrocarbon ester oil for the purposes of the invention comprises, further to the carbon and hydrogen atoms, at least one ester function (-C(=O)-O-).

[0138] The composition according to the invention may thus comprise, as mineral thickener, a fumed silica, preferably a hydrophobic fumed silica, or silica aerogel particles, preferably hydrophobic silica aerogel particles.a) Fumed silica

[0139] Fumed silica which has been hydrophobically surface treated is suitable for use in the invention. It is in fact possible to chemically modify the surface of the silica, by chemical reaction generating a reduction in the number of silanol groups present at the surface of the silica. It is possible in particular to substitute silanol groups with hydrophobic groups: a hydrophobic silica is then obtained.

[0140] The hydrophobic groups may be:- trimethylsiloxyl groups, which are notably obtained by treating fumed silica in the presence of hexamethyldisilazane. Silicas thus treated are known as “Silica Silylate” according to the CTFA (8th edition, 2000). They are sold, for example, under the references Aerosil R812® by the company Degussa, and Cab-O-Sil TS-530® by the company Cabot.- dimethylsilyloxyl or polydimethylsiloxane groups, which are notably obtained by treating fumed silica in the presence of polydimethylsiloxane or dimethyldichlorosilane. Silicas thus treated are known as “Silica Dimethyl Silylate” according to the CTFA (8th edition, 2000). They are sold, for example, under the references Aerosil R972® and Aerosil R974® by the company Degussa, and Cab-O-Sil TS-610® and Cab-O-Sil TS-720® by the company Cabot.b) Silica aerogels

[0141] Silica aerogels are porous materials obtained by replacing (by drying) the liquid component of a silica gel with air.

[0142] They are generally synthesized via a sol-gel process in a liquid medium and then dried, usually by extraction with a supercritical fluid, the one most commonly used being supercritical CO2. This type of drying makes it possible to avoid shrinkage of the pores and of the material. The sol-gel process and the various drying operations are described in detail in Brinker C.J. and Scherer G.W.,Sol-Gel Science, New York, Academic Press, 1990.

[0143] The hydrophobic silica aerogel particles usually have a specific surface area per unit mass (SM) ranging from 500 to 1500 m2 / g, preferably from 600 to 1200 m2 / g and better still from 600 to 800 m2 / g, and a size expressed as the volume-mean diameter (D[0.5]) ranging from 1 to 1500 µm, better still from 1 to 1000 µm, preferably from 1 to 100 µm, in particular from 1 to 30 µm, more preferably from 5 to 25 µm, better still from 5 to 20 µm and even better still from 5 to 15 µm.

[0144] According to one embodiment, the hydrophobic silica aerogel particles used in the present invention have a size expressed as the volume-mean diameter (D[0.5]) ranging from 1 to 30 µm, preferably from 5 to 25 µm, better still from 5 to 20 µm and even better still from 5 to 15 µm.

[0145] The specific surface area per unit mass can be determined by the nitrogen absorption method, known as the BET (Brunauer-Emmett-Teller) method, described inThe Journal of the American Chemical Society, Vol. 60, page 309, February 1938 and corresponding to the international standard ISO 5794 / 1 (appendix D). The BET specific surface area corresponds to the total specific surface area of the particles under consideration.

[0146] The sizes of the silica aerogel particles may be measured by static light scattering using a commercial MasterSizer 2000 particle size analyzer from Malvern. The data are processed on the basis of the Mie scattering theory. This theory, which is exact for isotropic particles, makes it possible to determine, in the case of non-spherical particles, an “effective” particle diameter. This theory is in particular described in the publication by Van de Hulst, H.C., Light Scattering by Small Particles, Chapters 9 and 10, Wiley, New York, 1957.

[0147] According to an advantageous embodiment, the hydrophobic silica aerogel particles used in the present invention have a specific surface area per unit mass (SM) ranging from 600 to 800 m2 / g and a size expressed as the volume-mean diameter (D[0.5]) ranging from 5 to 20 µm and even better still from 5 to 15 µm.

[0148] The aerogels are aerogels of hydrophobic silica, preferably of silylated silica (INCI name: Silica Silylate).

[0149] They may notably be obtained by surface treatment with silylating agents, for example with halogenated silanes such as alkylchlorosilanes, siloxanes, in particular dimethylsiloxanes such as hexamethyldisiloxane, or silazanes, so as to functionalize the OH groups with silyl groups Si-Rn, for example trimethylsilyl groups.

[0150] As regards the preparation of hydrophobic silica aerogel particles that have been surface-modified by silylation, reference may be made to US 7 470 725.

[0151] Use will preferably be made of hydrophobic silica aerogel particles surface-modified with trimethylsilyl groups.

[0152] As hydrophobic silica aerogels that may be used in the invention, examples that may be mentioned include the aerogel sold under the name VM-2260 (INCI name: Silica Silylate) by the company Dow Corning, the particles of which have a mean size of about 1000 microns and a specific surface area per unit mass ranging from 600 to 800 m2 / g.

[0153] Mention may also be made of the aerogels sold by the company Cabot under the references Aerogel TLD 201, Aerogel OGD 201, Aerogel TLD 203, Enova® Aerogel MT 1100 and Enova Aerogel MT 1200.

[0154] Use will preferably be made of the aerogel sold under the name VM-2270 (INCI name: Silica Silylate) by the company Dow Corning, the particles of which have an average size ranging from 5-15 microns and a specific surface area per unit mass ranging from 600 to 800 m2 / g.Lipophilic clays

[0156] A “lipophilic clay” is understood as meaning any clay that is liposoluble or lipodispersible in an oily phase.

[0158] The clays may be natural or synthetic. Mention may be made, as examples of such products, of clays of the family of the smectites, and also of the family of the vermiculites, stevensite or chlorites. These clays may be of natural or synthetic origin.

[0159] Preferably, use is made of organophilic clays, more particularly of modified clays, such as montmorillonite, bentonite, hectorite, attapulgite or sepiolite, and mixtures thereof. The clay is preferably a bentonite or a hectorite.

In particular, mention may be made of halides, such as stearalkonium, benzalkonium or dialkyldimethylammonium, for example distearyldimethylammonium, chlorides.

[0161] The lipophilic clay may be present in the form of a powder or in a form that is predispersed in a solvent chosen, for example, from C1-C2 alcohols, such as methanol, ethanol; propylene carbonate, triethyl citrate, and mixtures thereof.

[0162] The lipophilic clay suitable for carrying out the invention may be chosen from the modified hectorites having the following INCI names: Disteardimonium Hectorite, Stearalkonium Hectorites, Quaternium-18 Hectorite, alone or as mixtures, preferably Disteardimonium Hectorite.

[0168] More particularly, the content of lipophilic thickener represents from 0.01% to 10% by weight, preferably from 0.1% to 9% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.

[0169] Preferably, if the composition comprises, as thickener, silica, preferably hydrophobically treated silica, and even more preferentially a hydrophobic silica with the INCI name Silica Dimethyl Silylate, then its content is advantageously between 2% and 9% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.WAXES

[0170] The composition according to the invention may optionally comprise at least one polar or nonpolar hydrocarbon wax.

[0171] A “polar hydrocarbon wax” means a wax formed essentially from, or even constituted of, carbon and hydrogen atoms, and comprising at least one atom of oxygen, optionally of nitrogen. These compounds thus do not contain any silicon atoms.

[0172] A “nonpolar hydrocarbon wax” means a wax comprising only carbon and hydrogen atoms.

[0173] More particularly, for the purposes of the invention, it is recalled that a wax is in general a lipophilic compound that is solid at room temperature (20°C), in particular with a reversible solid / liquid change of state, having a melting point in particular greater than or equal to 45°C and less than or equal to 120°C.

[0174] Protocol for measuring the melting temperature of a wax

[0175] For the purposes of the invention, the melting temperature (or melting point) corresponds to the temperature of the most endothermic peak observed in thermal analysis (DSC) as described in standard ISO 11357-3; 1999.

[0176] The melting point of a solid fatty substance can be measured using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), for example the calorimeter sold under the name DSC 2000 by TA Instruments with the TA Universal Analysis software.

[0177] The measuring protocol is as follows:A sample of 5 mg of wax is placed in a crucible and subjected to a first temperature rise ranging from -20°C to 120°C, at a heating rate of 10°C / minute, is then cooled from 120°C to -20°C at a cooling rate of 10°C / minute and is lastly subjected to a second temperature rise ranging from -20°C to 120°C at a heating rate of 5°C / minute.During the second temperature rise, the melting point of the wax is measured, which corresponds to the temperature of the most endothermic peak observed on the melting curve.

[0178] More particularly, the polar hydrocarbon wax may be chosen from alcohol waxes, ester waxes, or mixtures thereof, and preferably at least from ester waxes.

[0196] According to a particular embodiment, the pigments used according to the invention are chosen from mineral pigments.

[0197] The term “mineral pigment” refers to any pigment that satisfies the definition in Ullmann's Encyclopedia in the chapter on inorganic pigments. Among the mineral pigments that are useful in the present invention, mention may be made of zirconium oxide or cerium oxide, and also zinc oxide, (black, yellow or red) iron oxide or chromium oxide, manganese violet, ultramarine blue, chromium hydrate and ferric blue, titanium dioxide, and metal powders, for instance aluminium powder and copper powder.

[0050] of greater than 100 nm and possibly ranging up to 10 µm, preferably from 200 nm to 5 µm and more preferentially from 300 nm to 1 µm.

[0200] The sizes are measured by static light scattering using a commercial MasterSizer 3000® particle size analyzer from Malvern, which makes it possible to determine the particle size distribution of all of the particles over a wide range which may extend from 0.01 µm to 1000 µm. The data are processed on the basis of the standard Mie scattering theory. This theory is the most suitable for size distributions ranging from submicronic to multimicronic; it makes it possible to determine an “effective” particle diameter. This theory is notably described in the publication by Van de Hulst, H.C.,Light Scattering by Small Particles, Chapters 9 and 10, Wiley, New York, 1957.

[0201] D

[0050] represents the maximum size exhibited by 50% by volume of the particles.
