Description

FOAMING CLEANSING COMPOSITIONS1. FIELD

[0001] The present disclosure relates to cleansing compositions, and in particular foaming cleansing compositions. The cleansing compositions include one or more surfactants, one or more viscosity increasing agents, one or more emulsifiers, and a superhydrophilic amphiphilic copolymer as a foam boosting agent. The one or more surfactants can be present in a total amount of about 30% by weight or less, based on the total weight of the cleansing composition. In certain aspects, the cleansing composition can be in the form of a cream. The present disclosure also relates to the use of such cleansing compositions on human skin.2. BACKGROUND

[0002] Cleansing products are available in various forms and are used by consumers globally in their hygiene routines to cleanse away cosmetics and impurities such as dirt and oil. Many cleansing formulations exist; however, consumers continuously search for products that will provide an overall improved cleansing experience. Particularly for sensitive skin types, it is desirable for cleansing products to be sufficiently mild and gentle while maintaining effective cleansing levels without causing harshness, dryness or irritation on a user’s skin. Preserving the user’s natural skin moisture barrier and natural skin pH is beneficial. It is also desirable for cleansing products to leave skin feeling refreshed, soft, soothed and nourished after use. For foaming cleansing compositions, which can be dispensed and agitated into a foam lather with liquid such as water, added formulation properties such as adequate foam generation rate and total foam volume are considered. These criteria among others come in addition to manufacturing constructs such as acceptable formulation stability, pH, microstructure, and viscosity.

[0003] As such, there exists a need for improved cleansing compositions, including foaming cleansing compositions, which simultaneously address numerous consumer expectations and provide an enhanced cleansing experience while also meeting manufacturing constructs. The present disclosure addresses these and other needs.3. SUMMARY

Foam Generation ResultsEXAMPLE 6: Clinical Study - Safety in Use Test (Tolerance and Efficacy) (Composition 21[000103] A 4-week study was conducted to test the tolerance and efficacy of Composition 9. Female subjects (n=36) aged 22-45 years old of Fitzpatrick Skin Type II- VI with selfperceived sensitive skin and self-reported reactive skin participated. Twenty-eight (28) of the subjects reported to have reactive skin in the form of redness at baseline (all, most, or some of the time). The race, skin type, and Fitzpatrick Skin Type of the subjects is provided in Table 19 below.Table 19.[000104] Subjects used Composition 9 at least twice per day (morning and evening). Clinical evaluations were conducted at: (1) Baseline; (2) Post-lstUsage; (3) Week 1; (4) Week 2; (5) Week 3; and (6) Week 4. Evaluations included clinical tolerance grading, subjective tolerance grading, subjective-self assessment questionnaires, pH testing, and microbiome testing.[000105] Tolerance results (objective and subjective parameters) are provided in FIG. 1. The objective parameters included expert grader assessments for dryness / scaling, edema, anderythema. The subjective parameters included subjective self-tolerance grading for burning / stinging, itching, and tightness / dry feeling. Overall, Composition 9 was well tolerated. [000106] The Safety In Use Test (SIUT) Assessment Questionnaire results are provided in Table 20 below.Table 20. Safety In Use Test (SIUT) Assessment Questionnaire Results[000107] The pH results observed Composition 9 respected the skin’s natural pH.[000108] Microbiome Testing[000109] Analysis of the post-treatment skin microbiome at 4 Weeks and comparison with the baseline skin microbiome was conducted to assess any significant changes in skin microbiome composition after treatment with Composition 9. Seventy-two (72) samples were collected from thirty-six (36) subjects at baseline and at Week 4. For the subset population, three (3) subjects and six (6) associated samples were excluded from the overall analysis (n=33). Statistical analysis was performed for alpha diversity (Shannon diversity); beta diversity (Bray-Curtis dissimilarity); and differential abundance (DESeq2). Alpha diversity estimates the diversity within samples. For example, Shannon diversity estimates diversity as a combination of richness and evenness (i.e., the distribution of their relative abundances). Beta diversity estimates the diversity between samples by calculating the dissimilarity between entire communities. For example, Bray-Curtis dissimilarity estimates the compositional differences between communities using the numbers of shared taxa, unique taxa, and relative abundances of the shared taxa. Differential abundance analysis identifies features that are significantly different between groups. For example, DESeq2 analysis utilized a negative binomial distribution model to estimate differential abundance between cohorts based on count data.[000110] The microbiome results observed that Composition 9 respected the skin’s natural microbiome. The Paired Shannon Alpha Diversity Index results are shown for all samples and for the subset population in FIGS. 5 A and 5B, respectively. Comparison of Week 4 and Baseline Using All Samples: There was no statistically significant difference observed in skin microbiome for both alpha and beta diversities between Week 4 and baseline for the overall population. More species were significantly enriched at Week 4 compared to baseline for the overall population based on DESeq2 analysis. Comparison of Week 4 and Baseline UsingSubset Samples: There was no statistically significant difference observed in skin microbiome composition for both alpha and beta diversities between Week 4 and baseline for the subset population. More bacterial species were significantly enriched at Week 4 compared to baseline for the subset population skin samples based on DESeq2 analysis.EXAMPLE 7; Makeup Removal Study[000111] A 2-week study was conducted including two (2) visits to the subjects over a 2- week period.

The amount of auxiliary makeup product removed was evaluated by comparing image intensity between post-cleansing and baseline.[000113] Results are shown in Table 21 below. As shown in Table 21, Composition 9 effectively removed dirt, oil and makeup; and removed 93.3% of carbon (dirt / impurities) after one wash.Table 21. Makeup Removal Study ResultsEXAMPLE 8: Mildness and Impairment Effect on Skin Barrier Testing (Composition 10) [000114] The mildness and impairment effect on skin barrier of Composition 10 and four (4) commercial over-the-counter (OTC) and cosmetic cleansing products (Cleansing Products 1-4) were tested against controls on skin epidermal equivalents (MatTek Corporation) (n=48 tissues). The tested compositions and cleansing products are provided in Table 22 and the control compositions tested are provided in Table 23.
