Description

Method for making up or for the care of keratinous materials, comprising the application of a base composition, a cosmetic composition and a finishing composition, the base and finishing compositions being silicon-based. The present invention relates to a method for making up and/or for the non-therapeutic care of keratinous materials comprising the application to said keratinous materials of a base composition, a cosmetic composition and a finishing composition, the base composition and the finishing composition being silicon-based and being capable of reacting together in order to form a film.

Cosmetic compositions, such are for example lipsticks and foundations, are commonly used to give the lips or the skin, and especially the face, an aesthetic colour and appearance. However, once applied to the lips or the skin, the resulting make-up or care effect is often temporary and does not last throughout the day: the uniformity and the intensity of the colour may indeed decrease due to the interference of the makeup for example with sebum, sweat, or saliva. Cosmetic makeup compositions have also the drawbacks of transferring, i.e. of becoming at least partially deposited, and leaving marks, on certain supports with which they may come into contact and especially a glass, a cup, clothes, the skin. This results in poor persistence of the applied composition, making it necessary to regularly renew the application of the foundation or lipstick composition. Another drawback often encountered with cosmetic compositions is an incomfortable deposit on the skin when said compositions are applied.

Silicon-based products are well-known compounds capable of reacting together in order to form a film. These products have been described in the prior art to improve the persistence of cosmetic care or make-up over time.

Document WO 2011/003054 for example relates to silicone containing compositions capable of forming adhesive films on substrates, which comprises a curable silicone composition comprising components (a), (d) and one of (b) or (c): (a), a polyorganosiloxane resin having at least 3 alkenyl groups per molecule, called "SiVi" groups, (b). a polyorganosiloxane compound having at least 2 Si-bonded hydrogen groups on the polysiloxane chain, called "SiH" groups, (c). a telechelic polyorganosiloxane compound having terminal Si-H groups, and (d). a hydrosilylation catalyst for the reaction of SiH groups with SiVi groups, (e). a liquid diluent, said components reacting together by hydrosilylation when they are brought into contact on a substrate and cure to form a continuous film on the substrate. Documents WO 2009/090242 and WO 2009/090243 relate to a cosmetic methods for coating keratinous materials, which consist in applying to the said keratinous materials a compound A, a compound B and a compound C and optionally a fatty or aqueous liquid phase, a filler, a solid or pasty fatty substance, a film-forming polymer, a gelling agent or a solid dyestuff, the compounds A, B and C being silicone compounds and being capable of reacting together via a hydrosilylation reaction.

Document WO 2011/001218 relates to a cosmetic method for making up and/or non- therapeutically caring the keratinous materials comprising the application on said keratinous materials of a mixture comprising: - one reactive functional MQ resin A, - one reactive organopolysiloxane compound B having at least three reactive functional groups per molecule, - one reactive organopolysiloxane compound C having at least two reactive functional groups per molecule, and - one catalyst for hydrosilylation, said MQ resin(s) A and organopolysiloxanes B and C being capable of interacting together by a hydrosilylation reaction in presence of said catalyst.

However, although the wear properties of the resulting make-up or care composition were improved over former compositions containing no such silicones, there remains room for improvement in this field.

The aim of the invention is thus to further improve the long lasting properties (in particular of the colour or the shade), the "transfer-resistant" properties and the comfort of existing cosmetic compositions when they are applied to keratinous materials, and in particular the skin or the lips.

The Inventors have surprisingly discovered that the base and the finishing compositions of the invention, which are both silicon-based, are capable of reacting together in order to form a film, even if a cosmetic composition is applied to the keratinous material, in particular the skin or the lips, after the application to said keratinous materials of the base composition and before the application of the finishing composition.

They have also discovered that the base and the finishing compositions of the invention, which are both silicon-based, are capable of reacting together in order to form a film, even if another cosmetic composition, for example a care composition, is previously applied to the keratinous material, in particular the skin or the lips, before the application of the base composition.

More particularly, the silicone-based products respectively present in the base composition and the finishing composition are capable of reacting together in order to form a continuous film around the cosmetic composition applied to keratinous materials. The cosmetic composition is thus entrapped by the formed continuous film.

The present invention therefore provides an unexpected and advantageous solution to protect and stabilize a cosmetic composition applied to keratinous materials. Such cosmetic compositions thus present good wear, in particular good wear of the color, shine and/or matity throughout the day for a makeup, and remain comfortable over time when applied to the keratinous materials.

One subject of the invention is a cosmetic method for making up and/or for the non- therapeutic care of human keratinous materials, particularly the skin or the lips, comprising applying successively to the keratinous materials:

1/ a base composition,

21 at least one cosmetic composition for making up and/or caring keratinous materials, 3/ a finishing composition,

wherein at least one of the base composition or the finishing composition comprises at least one compound chosen from:

- a silicon polymer A having silicon-bonded alkenyl groups called "Si-Alkenyl" groups,

- a silicon polymer B having silicon-bonded hydrogens groups called "SiH" groups,

- a catalyst C,

and mixtures thereof,

with the proviso that:

- at least one polymer A, one polymer B and one catalyst C are present in either the base or the finishing composition, and that

- the polymer A, the polymer B and the catalyst C are not present simultaneously in the same composition,

said polymer A and polymer B being capable of reacting together by a hydrosilylation reaction in the presence of said catalyst C when they are contacted with one another,

in order to form, on the keratinous material, a continuous film within which the cosmetic composition is entrapped.

The hydrosilylation reaction between the Si-Alkenyl groups of polymer A and the SiH groups of polymer B may be depicted in a simplified way as follows: — Si— H + CH₂=CH— W → — Si— CH₂— CH₂— W (Polymer B) (Polymer A) where W represents a silicone chain containing one or more unsaturated aliphatic groups. According to an embodiment of the invention, the silicon polymer A comprises at least two unsaturated aliphatic groups. By way of example, the silicon polymer A may be a polyorganosiloxane comprising a silicone main chain, whose unsaturated aliphatic groups are pendant to the main chain (side group) or are located at the ends of the main chain of the compound (terminal group): such compounds are referred to polyorganosiloxanes containing unsaturated aliphatic groups.

In one embodiment, the silicon polymer A is selected from polyorganosiloxanes comprising at least two unsaturated aliphatic groups, for example two or three vinyl or allyl groups, which are each bonded to a silicon atom.

In one advantageous embodiment the silicon polymer A is more particularly selected from polyorganosiloxanes comprising siloxane units of the formula (I):

in which:

* R represents a monovalent, linear, branched or cyclic hydrocarbon group containing 1 to 30 carbon atoms, preferably 1 to 20, and more preferably 1 to 10 carbon atoms, said hydrocarbon group may also comprise at least one or more unsaturated groups or R represents an aryl group such as phenyl,

R is a group such as defined above, and n is 1, 2 or 3.

In one variant, the silicon polymer A may be a silicone resin comprising at least two ethylenic unsaturations, and preferably 3 ethylenic unsaturations, said resin being able to react with the silicon polymer B. Mention may be made, for example, of the resins of type MQ or MT which itself carries unsaturated reactive — CH=CH2 end groups. These resins are crosslinked organosiloxane polymers.

The nomenclature of silicone resins is known under the name "MDTQ", the resin being described as a function of the different monomeric siloxane units it comprises, with each of the letters "MDTQ" characterizing one type of unit.

The letter M represents the monofunctional unit of formula (CH₃)₃SiOi_/2, the silicon atom being bonded to a single oxygen atom in the polymer comprising this unit.

The letter D signifies a difunctional unit (CH₃)₂Si0_2/2 in which the silicon atom is bonded to two oxygen atoms.

The letter T represents a trifunctional unit of formula (CH3)SiC"3/₂ in which the silicon atom is bonded to three oxygen atoms.

In the above-defined units M, D and T, at least one of the methyl groups may be substituted by a group R other than the methyl group, such as a hydrocarbon radical (especially alkyl), linear or branched, having 2 to 10 carbon atoms or a phenyl group or else a hydroxyl group.

The letter Q signifies a tetrafunctional unit Si0_4/2 in which the silicon atom is bonded to four hydrogen atoms which are themselves bonded to the remainder of the polymer. Examples of such resins include the MT silicone resins such as the poly(phenyl-vinylsilsesquioxanes).

Resins comprising R₃SiOi/₂ units and Si0₄/₂ units are well known in the art. These copolymers are described, for example, in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,936,582, 2,676,182, and 2,857,356.

The silicon polymer A preferably contains from 0.01% to 1% by weight of unsaturated aliphatic groups or from 0.00001 mol/g as vinyl group based on the weight of the polymer to 0.1 mol/g as vinyl group based on the weight of the polymer. Advantageously, the silicon polymer A is selected from polyorganopolysiloxanes, especially those comprising the siloxane units (I) and, optionally, (II) described above, and from silicone resins of MQ type. The silicon polymer A may be present in the base composition or in the finishing composition in a content ranging from 15 to 95 % by weight, and preferably from 35 to 65 % by weight relative to the total weight of the composition.

According to another embodiment of the invention, the silicon polymer B is an organosiloxane comprising at least two free Si— H groups (hydrosilane groups).

The silicon polymer B may advantageously be selected from polyorganosiloxanes comprising at least one alkylhydrosiloxane unit of formula (III) below:

* p is 1 or 2.

These polyorganosiloxane B containing alkylhydrosiloxane units may further comprise units of formula (II) as defined above.

The silicon polymer B may be a silicone resin comprising at least one unit selected from the units M, D, T, and Q as defined above and comprising at least one Si— H group, such as the poly(methylhydridosilsesquioxanes).

These polyorganosiloxane B preferably contain from 0.5% to 2.5% by weight of Si— H groups.

Advantageously, the radicals R represent a methyl group in formulae (I), (II), (III) above.

These polyorganosiloxanes B preferably comprise end groups of formula (CH₃)₃SiOi_/2.

Advantageously, these polyorganosiloxanes B comprise at least two alkylhydrosiloxane units of formula -(H₃C)(H)SiO- and optionally comprise -(H3C)₂SiO- units. The silicon polymer B may be present in the base composition or in the finishing composition in a content ranging from 15 to 95 % by weight, and preferably from 35 to 65 % by weight relative to the total weight of the composition. The catalyst C used in the present invention comprises those known in the art to facilitate the hydrosilylation reaction. These include, for example, platinum and rhodium materials. These catalysts may take any of the known forms such as platinum or rhodium deposited on carriers such as silica gel or powdered charcoal or other appropriate compounds such as platinic chloride, salts of platinum and chloroplatinic acids, chloroplatinic acid either as the commonly obtainable hexahydrate or the anhydrous form because of its easy dispersibility in organosilicon systems and its non-effect on colour of the mixture. Platinum or rhodium complexes may also be used e.g. those prepared from chloroplatinic acid hexahydrate and divinyltetramethyldisiloxane.

The hydrosilylation catalyst C according to the invention is advantageously a platinum based catalyst or a rhodium based catalyst, and in particular a platinum complex stabilized by diviny ltetramethy ldisilo xane .

The hydrosilylation catalyst C may be present in the base composition or in the finishing composition in a content ranging from 0.0001% to 0.01% by weight, and preferably from 0.0001 to 0.001% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition.

In one particular embodiment, the silicon polymer A is a polydimethylsiloxane containing vinyl end groups, and the silicon polymer B is a polymethylhydrosiloxane.

As an example of a combination of silicon polymer A and silicon polymer B reacting by hydrosilylation in the presence of a catalyst C, mention may be made of the following commercial references provided by Dow Corning: Dow Corning ® DC 7-FC4210 Elastomer Parts A & B.

More particularly Dow Corning ® DC 7-FC4210 Elastomer is a 2-part solvent-less silicone film-forming technology. It is a thermoset silicone rubber system, with a fast cure at room temperature.

The composition of the two parts are described below.

Part A (Dow Corning 7-FC4210 Elastomer Film Forming Base ®):

• Reinforced silicone phase: vinyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane and treated silica,

• Catalyst: platinum complex, • INCI name: Bis-Vinyldimethicone (and) Silica Silylate (and) Platinum Diviny ldisilo xane .

Part B (Dow Corning 7-FC4210 Curing Agent ®):

· Reinforced silicone phase: vinyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane and treated silica,

• Cross-linking agent: methylhydrogen siloxane,

• INCI name: Bis-Vinyldimethicone (and) Silica Silylate (and) Hydrogen dimethicone.

When silicon polymer A and silicon polymer B are brought into contact in the presence of the catalyst C at room temperature, the system cures rapidly (from 2 to 5 minutes) in order to form a film around the cosmetic composition. Said resulting forming film is a network of cross-linked and reinforced silicone polymer.

According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the ratio between the silicon polymer A and the silicon polymer B is 1 : 1 (or approximatively 1 : 1, that is to say from 0.8: 1 to 1 :0.8). In such a way, the cross-linking reaction between the silicon polymer A and the silicon polymer B is complete and the resulting film is dry, non-sticky, soft, flexible, elastic and long lasting. Such a film is thus very comfortable when formed on the keratinous materials.

According to an embodiment of the invention, the thickness of the resulting film encapsulating the cosmetic composition is from 5 to 15 μιη.

In one embodiment, the silicon polymer A and the catalyst C are present in the base composition and the silicon polymer B is present in the finishing composition.

In another embodiment, the silicon polymer B is present in the base composition and the silicon polymer A and the catalyst C are present in the finishing composition.

- the base composition comprises the polymer B and the catalyst C, and the finishing composition comprises the polymer A and another polymer B,

- the base composition comprises the polymer A and the polymer B, and the finishing composition comprises another polymer B and the catalyst C. Once the base composition as defined above is applied to the keratinous material, in particular skin or lips, at least one cosmetic composition for making up and/or caring the keratinous materials is applied.

It is not necessary to wait between the application of the base composition, the cosmetic composition(s) and the finishing composition in order to obtain the desired film.

As used herein, the term "cosmetic composition for making up and/or caring keratinous materials" means any cosmetic formulation suitable for application onto the keratinous materials.

According to an embodiment of the invention, the cosmetic method is advantageously applied to the skin or the lips.

The cosmetic composition used in the method of the invention is for example a makeup product, in particular a fluid foundation, a compact powder or a loose powder, a lip product, in particular a lipstick, or a lip gloss. Alternatively, cosmetic composition used in the method of the invention can be a care product such as a day or night face cream, or a lip balm.

When the makeup composition is applied according to the cosmetic method of the invention, the intensity and the homogeneity of the color or shade and/or the shine or matity of the resulting makeup remains the same at "To" (i.e. when applied) and after "T7 " (i.e. 7 hours after the application on the skin).

The base composition, the cosmetic composition and the finishing composition used in the cosmetic method or kit of the invention may be in any galenic form conventionally used for topical application. They may in particular be in the form of a powder, an emulsion, a microemulsion, a nano emulsion, a suspension, a solution, a lotion, a cream, an aqueous or hydro alcoholic gel, a foam, a serum, an aerosol dispersion, an anhydrous composition.

In the case of an emulsion, it may be a water-in-oil or oil-in-water emulsion.

In the case of a powder, it may be a free, compact or cast powder, or a composition obtained by a "slurry" type process, that is, by dispersing a pulverulent phase in a volatile solvent phase, and then evaporation of the volatile solvent phase.

In particular, the compositions used in the method of the invention may be in the form of a day cream, a foundation, a concealer, an eye contour, an eye shadow, a make-up product or a cosmetic product body care.

According to an embodiment of the invention, the cosmetic composition used is in the form of a fluid composition, for example an anhydrous fluid foundation or an oil-in-water or water-in-oil emulsion.

According to another embodiment, the cosmetic composition is a makeup composition in the form of a lipstick, an anhydrous gloss or a colored emulsion for the lips.

A person skilled in the art may select the appropriate galenic form, and the method for preparing each composition, based on his general knowledge, taking into account firstly the nature of the constituents used, and secondly the intended use of the compositions.

Pigments are to be understood as white or coloured particles, mineral or organic, insoluble in an aqueous solution, intended for colouring and/or opacifying the composition.

As mineral pigments usable in the invention, we may mention the oxides of titanium, of zirconium or of cerium as well as the oxides of zinc, of iron or of chromium, ferric blue, manganese violet, ultramarine blue and chromium hydrate.

It may also be a pigment having a structure that may be multi- layered, for example of the sericite/brown iron oxide/titanium dioxide/silica type.

Among the organic pigments usable in the invention, we may mention carbon black, pigments of the D & C type, lakes based on cochineal carmine, barium, strontium, calcium, aluminium or the diketopyrrolopyrroles (DPP).

The pigments used in the invention may be surface-treated with an organic agent.

The previously surface-treated pigments useful in the context of the invention are pigments that have undergone, fully or partially, a surface treatment of a chemical, electronic, electrochemical, mechanical-chemical or mechanical nature, with an organic agent such as those that are notably described in Cosmetics and Toiletries, February 1990, Vol. 105, p. 53- 64, before being dispersed in the compositions of the invention.

Preferably, the surface-treated pigments are coated with an organic layer. The organic agent may be deposited on the pigments by solvent evaporation, chemical reaction between the molecules of the surface agent or creation of a covalent bond between the surface agent and the pigments.

Preferably, an organic agent bound covalently to the pigments will be used. The composition may comprise at least one pigment in a content ranging from 0.01 to 25% by weight, notably from 0.1 to 15% by weight, and in particular from 1 to 10% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.

They may also be mica particles, the surface of which is overlaid with at least two successive layers of metal oxides and/or organic colouring matter.

We may also mention, as an example of nacres, natural mica coated with titanium oxide, iron oxide, natural pigment or bismuth oxychloride.

The nacres may more particularly possess a yellow, pink, red, bronze, orange, brown, gold and/or coppery colour or sheen.

Calibrated fit tests were performed by a beautician.

A care product is applied beforehand to the face of the subject.

Then, to the hemi-face:

- either the foundation "CHANEL Les Beiges" alone is applied,

- or, firstly the base composition, secondly the foundation "Chanel Les Beiges" and thirdly the finishing composition are respectively applied.

An evaluation and a note of the foundation's wear and long lasting properties are attributed by the subject at T₀, T_3H3o and T_7H3o (evolution of the make-up result, presence of the film, homogeneity, matity, uniformity, smoothing effect and shade evolution).

An average of 3 times and the delta for each time are calculated.

Results

Compared to the foundation "CHANEL Les Beiges" used alone, the foundation "CHANEL Les Beiges", used in association with the base and the finishing composition:

- has no change in the shade over time: the shade at T_7R3O is identical to that at To,

- has a very good wear (long lasting) of the shade: the shade remains pronounced,

- is still unifying the pigmentary spots,

- is transfert-resistant.
