[0002] Shaving foam containing glycolipids
[0003] The present invention relates to shaving foams containing glycolipids.
[0004] A person's outward appearance can be influenced and enhanced through the use of cosmetic products. Regular use of cleansing and care products ensures that people feel attractive, beautiful, and comfortable in their surroundings, and radiate this outwards.
[0005] Maintaining one's appearance includes not only skincare but also body hair care. In particular, the removal of body hair, especially facial hair, contributes to one's overall look. The term "shaving" refers specifically to the cutting of body hair directly at the skin's surface. Shaving practices can be influenced by fashion and cultural preferences. Often, facial hair removal is desired only in certain areas. Furthermore, shaving plays a significant role in hair removal on other parts of the body besides facial hair. It is common practice to remove hair from the legs, underarms, and / or pubic area.
[0006] The shaving process can be done wet or dry. In wet shaving, the hairs are softened before being cut by the razor blade. This minimizes the effort required and prevents unpleasant pulling. Softening the hairs means they absorb water, but first the outer sebum layer of the hair must be removed. Shaving aids are used for this process. These aids come in the form of shaving soaps, creams, gels, or foams. In addition to softening the hairs, shaving aids also care for the shaved skin, allow the razor blade to glide more smoothly, and ensure that the cut hairs are easily removed from the skin.
[0007] Shaving foams, in particular, are considered one of the most popular shaving aids among customers for preparing their hair before shaving. The foam is easy to dispense and can be applied directly to the area to be shaved. This makes application simpler than with products that first need to be lathered manually. Furthermore, customers associate the application of shaving foam with a pleasant feeling on the skin. It is also advantageous for customers to be able to apply the same foam consistency every time, making it easier to guide the razor blade during the subsequent shaving routine.
[0008] Customers continue to prefer shaving aids that allow a razor blade, usually made of metal, to glide smoothly over the skin. This results in fewer shaving cuts and skin irritations, and makes shaving a smoother experience. Particularly good gliding properties are achieved when friction between the razor and skin is reduced. The gliding properties of a shaving foam can be determined by its lubricity rating. It is important that a cosmetic preparation in the form of a shaving foam has a lubricity that reduces friction between the surface and the razor, but not so much that it becomes too slippery and causes the razor to slide.
[0009] The glide of a shaving aid depends primarily on the amount of surfactants used. It is important to avoid increasing the proportion of surfactants in cosmetic products, especially cosmetic foams, as this could lead to reduced gentleness, skin irritation, and redness. This is particularly important to avoid with shaving aids, since the use of razor blades already puts increased stress on the skin. Therefore, there is a need for cosmetic products, especially shaving aids, that produce a stable lather and improved glide under conventional use without increasing the surfactant content.
[0010] Consumers increasingly prefer cleaning products based on sustainable ingredients, which is why biosurfactants are being used more frequently. Biosurfactants are defined as surfactants that can be derived from renewable resources and are also biodegradable. The manufacturing process can thus be sustainable, for example, through fermentation. Biosurfactants are considered mild surfactants. Known biosurfactants include glycolipids, lipopeptides, fatty acids, and phospholipids.
[0011] Rhamnolipids are a class of glycolipids produced by biosynthesis in bacteria of the genus Pseudomonas aeruginosa, among other organisms. They can be purchased, for example, under the trade name Rheance® one from Evonik. Rhamnolipids can be described by the following general structural formula (I):
[0012] Where m = 1 or 0,
[0013] N = 1 or 0,
[0014] R1 and R2 are independently identical or different organic residues with 2 to 30, preferably 5 to 24, carbon atoms, in particular a substituted or unsubstituted, branched or unbranched alkyl residue, which may also be unsaturated, wherein the alkyl residue is preferably a linear saturated alkyl residue with 6 to 20 carbon atoms. Salts of these compounds are also included according to the invention. The term "di-rhamnolipid" refers to compounds of the above formula or their salts in which n = 1. Similarly, "mono-rhamnolipid" refers to compounds of the above formula or their salts in which n = 0.
[0015] Rhamnolipids are, by definition, not anionic surfactants within the meaning of this invention.
[0016] The state of the art is known in EP 2786742 A1, which discloses the use of rhamnolipids in cosmetic products.
[0017] Another class of glycolipids are sophorolipids. They can be produced by fermentation of yeasts of the Candida and Torulopsis types, as well as Torulopsis magnoliae, Candida bombicola, Candida apicola, or Candida bogoriensis. The essential glucid of extracellular sophorolipids is sophorose (2'-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-β-D-glucopyranose). This sugar can be acetylated at the 6' and 6' positions and is linked to a fatty acid hydroxyl group at the ω or ω-1 position. The lipid fraction of sophorolipids is composed of several hydroxy fatty acids. They can be purchased, for example, from Evonik under the trade name SOPHANCE LA-A.
[0018] The state of the art is known in DE 69531870 T2, which discloses the use of sophorolipids in cosmetic products.
[0019] Consequently, the object of the present invention was to provide cosmetic products which have an increased gliding ability of a metal razor blade on a surface, in particular the skin, without increasing the surfactant content.
[0020] Conventional cosmetic shaving aids are known, among other things, from EP 1992323 A1. However, the disclosed preparations could not provide any indication of the present invention.
[0021] Surprisingly for those skilled in the art, it has now been found that the problem arising from the sliding ability of a metal razor blade on a surface, in particular the skin, could be solved by the present invention.
[0022] The present invention relates to a cosmetic product comprising a) a pressure vessel with a dispensing valve, b) a cosmetic preparation comprising an O / W emulsion comprising glycolipids, c) at least one propellant foaming and / or dispensing the O / W emulsion, characterized in that b) and c) are contained in a).
[0023] A further object of the present invention is a cosmetic product comprising a) a pressure vessel with a dispensing valve, b) a cosmetic preparation comprising an O / W emulsion comprising rhamnolipids, in particular mono-, di- or polyrhamnolipids, c) at least one propellant foaming and / or dispensing the O / W emulsion, characterized in that b) and c) are included in a). A further object of the present invention is a cosmetic product comprising a) a pressure vessel with a dispensing valve, b) a cosmetic preparation comprising an O / W emulsion comprising sophorolipides, c) at least one propellant foaming and / or dispensing the O / W emulsion, characterized in that b) and c) are included in a).
[0024] Another object of the invention is an aerosol can with a dispensing valve, which contains the cosmetic product according to the invention.
[0025] Another object of the invention is the use of the cosmetic product according to the invention to provide a foam for application to the skin.
[0026] Another aspect of the invention is the use of the cosmetic product according to the invention for providing a shaving foam. When such a foam is used as shaving foam, it exhibits particularly good gliding properties. Therefore, such foams provide a more pleasant shaving experience.
[0027] Another object of the invention is a method for applying the cosmetic product according to the invention to increase the gliding ability of a razor blade on human skin, characterized in that in a first step the cosmetic preparation is mixed with the propellant and removed from the pressure vessel, in a second step the resulting foam is applied to the skin moistened with water, and in a third step the hairs in the area of skin where the cosmetic product has been applied are shaved with a metal razor blade.
[0028] Surprisingly, the combination of the invention or the cosmetic product according to the invention showed a significant increase in the glide values, with a simultaneously creamy foam with good stability, without increasing the content of surfactants or emulsifiers.
[0029] Where sliding coefficients are specified in this disclosure, all values refer to measurements under standard conditions. The measurement was performed using a universal testing machine (Zwick / Roell BZ 1.0 / TH1S [Ulm, Germany]) based on a peel test. The testing machine is equipped with a load cell (maximum rated load 10 N according to EN ISO 7500-1 = Class 1) with an adapter specifically manufactured for sliding coefficient measurement. This adapter is milled from a 250 mm long polyoxymethylene rail into a groove 7 mm deep and 23 mm wide. During the measurement, the forces are measured when a trapezoidal aluminum sliding element (16 g), having a cutting edge, and an additional weight (30 g) are pulled through the milled groove in the rail. The sliding coefficient is then calculated from the measured average force over the measuring path.
[0030] For the measurement, the product under investigation was mixed with water (37 °C; water hardness 1.5 to 2.5 mmol / L CaCO3 or 8.4 to 14.0 dH) in a 2:1 ratio, and 0.5 g of the mixture was evenly distributed on the rail. The aluminum sliding element was then placed on the rail and connected to the load cell via a deflection pin (d=4 mm) with a guide groove and a 0.5 mm thick nylon cord. The sliding measurement was then started. The sliding element was pulled through the rail at a test speed of 160 mm / min over a measuring distance of 110 mm, and the sliding coefficient was determined over this period. The sliding coefficient was determined in nine measurements for each preparation, with the preparation being reapplied each time. The zero value was measured against water. The sliding coefficient is calculated using the following formula (I):
[0031] Float value = 100 * (FN - FM) / FN (I)
[0032] Where FN is the zero value (measured with water) and FM is the measured frictional force with the product applied.
[0033] Where weight percentages (wt%) are given below without reference to a specific composition or mixture, these percentages always refer to the total weight of the cosmetic cleansing preparation.

Unless otherwise stated, all experiments were carried out under standard conditions. The term "standard conditions" means 22°C, 1013 hPa, and a relative humidity of 55%.
[0035] Emulsifiers are defined as all substances listed as "emulsifying agents" in the International Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary and Handbook, Thirteenth Edition 2010 (ISBN 1-882621-47-6). Surfactants are defined as all substances listed as "surfactants" in the International Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary and Handbook, Thirteenth Edition 2010 (ISBN 1-882621-47-6).
[0036] Where weight percentage ranges for the components of the preparation are specified below, the disclosure of the present application also includes all individual values in steps of 0.1 wt.% within these weight percentage ranges.
[0037] The term “free from” is understood below to mean that the respective raw material or composition is less than 0.1 wt.%, preferably less than 0.01 wt.%, in particular 0 wt.%, based on the total weight of the preparation.
