Definitions

• the present invention relates to compositions that can be used in cosmetics and in dermatology, and more particularly to a composition with a bactericidal effect that can be used as a preservative in these cosmetic and dermatological compositions.
• the skin comprises superficial layers, namely the epidermis, and deeper layers, the dermis and the hypodermis, and each has specific properties allowing the whole to react and adapt to the conditions of its environment.
• the epidermis which is composed of three types of cells, namely keratinocytes (90% of epidermal cells), melanocytes (2 to 3% of epidermal cells) and Langerhans cells, constitutes the outer layer and plays a role. fundamental to ensure the protection and maintenance of good trophicity.
• the dermis serves as a support for the epidermis and consists mainly of fibroblasts and an extracellular matrix essentially based on collagen and elastin.
• Collagen fibers contribute to the texture and tone of the skin, and elastin is responsible for its elasticity. Other cells, such as macrophages and leucocytes, are also present in the dermis layer.
• the hypodermis which is the deepest layer of the skin, contains lipid-producing fat cells so that the subcutaneous tissue makes a fat layer that protects muscles, bones, and internal organs from shock.
• cosmetic and dermatological compositions for the treatment and prevention of skin conditions by topical application must be pleasant to use and must have good physical properties, including consistency and lubricity, while ensuring satisfactory efficiency health and avoiding the disadvantages such as tugging, irritation or itching, that may cause certain active ingredients. They must also have good conservation properties by avoiding or limiting the risks of degradation and microbial contamination.
• Microbial contamination can occur during manufacturing or packaging (primary contamination), or, most often, during the storage and / or use of the products (secondary contamination), especially when this is done a relatively hot and humid environment, favorable to microbial growth, which is generally the case of cosmetics when the containers containing them have been opened and the users have opened them.
• This microbial proliferation is manifested in the organoleptic characteristics of cosmetic products and in the health of users. It is accompanied by instability of the product manifested by a change in color, an appearance of unpleasant odor, a transformation of the texture, and these effects not only can impair the effectiveness of the product but can also make it uncomfortable for the user, and even sometimes be harmful, for example because of the risk of infection resulting from microbial growth. It is therefore desirable to protect cosmetic products by incorporating preservatives that prevent or limit bacterial growth to enhance consumer safety.
