Definitions
- the present invention relates to a low viscosity personal care composition comprising a suspended particulate material.
- the present invention also relates to an array of two or more of the low viscosity personal care compositions.
- Toner also known as "clear lotion” is a low viscosity personal care composition comprising essentially no emulsifiers. Toner is typically applied to skin after a facial cleanser is used and before a skin moisturizer is used. The use of toner has long been deemed as a supplementary step in the skin care regimen to neutralize the elevated pH of the skin surface which is caused by the facial cleanser, and thereby prepare the skin for better absorption of the moisturizer.
- a toner has a translucent appearance.
- Some consumers tend to believe a translucent toner is "richer” than a transparent toner.
- emulsification techniques have been traditionally used.
- An emulsified system comprises a water phase and an oil phase.
- the mechanism behind achieving a translucent appearance in an emulsion is that the well-dispersed small oil droplets have a refractive index that differ from that of water, which in turn causes the light to reflect at the interface of the oil and aqueous phases. This light reflection leads to translucency of the emulsion.
- toner has a simpler structure than that of an emulsion. Since the toner remains on the skin and is not rinsed off, it is desirable that the emulsifier level in the toner is kept as low as possible. Besides, the toner should preferably have a low level of oil to prevent an oily skin feel.
- the toner In addition to translucent appearance, it is also desirable for the toner to provide a fresh and smooth skin feel. It is known that certain particulate materials, for example silicone resins, are used for this purpose. For instance, WO 00/56272 Al, which is assigned to Color Access, Inc, relates to gel-like liquid powder compositions comprising silicone resins. However, the creation of a translucent appearance and a fresh silky skin feel should not compromise the low viscosity requirement of the toner, which is less than 1000 mPa.s. Higher viscosities, e.g. greater than 1000 mPa.s are characteristic of gel-like composition, which are distinct from toners.
- the present invention relates to a low viscosity personal care composition
- a low viscosity personal care composition comprising:
- composition has a viscosity of from about 80 to about 1000 mPa.s, and a pH of from about 4 to about 9, wherein the acrylic polymer provide a selection yield value of at least 0.11 Pa.
- the present invention relates to a low viscosity personal care composition
- a low viscosity personal care composition comprising:
- a viscosity reducing agent which is a dissociable active agent, wherein the composition has a viscosity of from about 200 to about 600 mPa.s, and a pH of from about 5 to about 7.
- the present invention relates to an array of two or more low viscosity personal care compositions, wherein one of said personal care compositions comprises a suspended particulate material at a level different from those in the other personal care compositions.
- a refreshing, translucent, mild, low viscosity personal care composition e.g. a toner
- select acrylic polymers of the present invention provide a selection yield value of at least 0.11 Pa.
- the present invention is not limited to any particular mechanism of action, but is believed to operate by a crosslinked internal structure in the composition built by the suspension aid which supports the particulate materials in the composition and diminish the particulate material separation out of the composition.
- the present invention also provides an array of products with varied translucency levels, which meet different consumers' needs through varying the suspended particulate material level in the present composition.
- the term "suspended particulate materials” means the plurality of particles incorporated in the present aqueous composition do not separate in solid form from the composition. In other words, the particulate materials do not visibly settle to the bottom or visibly float to the top of the composition.
- the suspension stability can be tested through an accelerated stability test conducted at an elevated temperature, usually 40°C.
- the term "specific density” means the ratio of the density of a substance versus the density of water.
- selection yield value provided by the acrylic polymer means the yield value measured in a screen solution.
- the screen solution and the yield value measurement method are described in detail below.
- dissociable active agent means the active agents which carry positive and/or negative charges on its structure.
- personal care composition refers to a consumer product that is suitable for topical application on mammalian keratinous tissue.
- array means two or more products displayed on a shelf together, and/or sold together.
- the present aqueous composition comprises from about 0.01%, about 0.1 %, and about 1% to about 5%, about 10%, and about 20% of a suspended particulate material, or a mixture of various suspended particulate materials.
- useful suspended particulate material comprises particles which are measured in microns.
- the particulate materials useful in the present invention have a median particle size and particle size distribution such that they are below the tactile perception threshold of most consumers, and yet are not so small as to be ineffective for a silky and smooth sensory.
- the median particle size refers to the particulate materials in a neat form, i.e., in an essentially pure, powder form.
- Median particle size can be determined by any suitable method known in the art, such as the ASTM Designation E20-85 "Standard Practice for Particle Size Analysis of Particulate Substances in the Range of 0.2 to 75 Micrometers by Optical Microscopy", ASTM Volume 14.02, 1993.

- the present composition comprises from about 0.01%, about 0.05%, and about 0.1%> to about 1%), about 2%, and about 5% of an acrylic polymer.
- An acrylic polymer is a polymer that has 50% or more residues of (meth)acrylic monomers, based on the weight of the polymer.
- polymer As used herein and as defined by F.W. Billmeyer, in the Textbook of Polymer Science, second edition, published by Wiley-Interscience, 1971, the term "polymer” is a large molecule comprising a repetition of smaller, simpler chemical units. "Monomers” are chemicals that react with each other to become the repeated units of a polymer. Polymers may be linear, branched, crosslinked, star shaped, or any combinations thereof. Polymers may be homopolymers (i.e., built up from one type of monomer) or copolymers (built up from two or more types of monomer).
- Copolymers may have the monomer units arranged randomly, in blocks, in sequence, or combinations thereof. Polymers have a weight-average molecular weight of greater than or equal to 1,000, or even greater than or equal to 10,000. Polymers may have any of a wide variety of physical forms, and some polymers may be converted from one physical form to another. Some polymers are solid, liquid, or a combination thereof. Some polymers are dissolved in a solvent to form a solution. Some polymers are dispersed: that is, they exist as polymeric particulate materials distributed in a liquid medium.
- a (meth)acrylic monomer is any monomer that is (meth)acrylic acid, any ester thereof, or any amide thereof.
- Esters or amides of (meth)acrylic acid can have alkyl groups, aromatic groups, any of a wide variety of substituent groups such as, hydroxyl, epoxide, amine, thiol, urethane, carboxyl, or other substituent groups, or any combination thereof.
- Some (meth)acrylic monomers have exactly one carbon-carbon double bond, while other (meth)acrylic monomers have two or more carbon-carbon double bonds.
- Some monomers are described herein as esters of (meth)acrylic acid with certain alcohols. It is to be understood that such a description refers to the structure of the monomer so described, which may be made by any method, including by reacting (meth)acrylic acid with that certain alcohol.
- Acrylic polymers have long been used in various industries to provide rheology modifying benefits including but not limited to thickening capability as well as suspension capability for a composition in which it is incorporated. Some polymers are commercially advertised as focusing on providing suspension capability, while the other polymers are advertised as more focusing on building up viscosity. It is important for the present invention to select suitable acrylic polymers for the present low viscosity personal care composition, which can provide a high enough yield value to suspend particulate materials, while at the same time not increasing the viscosity too much.
- an acrylic polymer suitable for use as a suspension aid for suspending particulate materials in a low viscosity personal care composition can be selected through a screening process in a screen solution.
- the selection yield value provided by the acrylic polymer means the yield value for the screen solution incorporating a acrylic polymer to be screened.
- the screen solution can be prepared according to the following steps.
- the selection yield value is measured for each screen solution comprising a acrylic polymer to be screened. If an acrylic polymer renders a selection yield value of at least 0.11 Pa, preferably at least 0.12 Pa, it is identified as a suitable acrylic polymer for use in the present personal care composition to stably suspend particulate materials. Without being bound by theory, it is believed that a favorable intersection point is found between the thickening capability and the suspension capability for an acrylic polymer as a suitable suspension aid for the present personal care composition.
- Suitable commercially available acrylic polymers for the present invention include acrylates/vinyl isodecanoate crosspolymer sold as Stabylen 30 from 3V Inc, acrylates/Cio-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymers sold as Carbopol® 1382, PemulenTM TR-2 and PemulenTM TR-1 from Lubrizol, and carbomer sold as Carbopol® 981 and Carbopol® 980 and Carbopol® from Lubrizol.
- the present composition can include from about 0.01%, about 0.5%>, and about 1% to about 2%, about 5%, and about 10%> of a viscosity reducing agent.
- a suitable viscosity reducing agent can be an electrolyte, preferably a monovalent salt, including but not limited to sodium chloride, potassium chloride, and combinations thereof.
- the monovalent salt can be intentionally incorporated into the composition, or it can also be present as an impurity from any other ingredient in the present composition.
- the viscosity reducing agent can also be a skin active agent dissociable in a personal care composition having a pH of from about 4 or 5 to about 7 or 9.
- Such a skin active agent dissociable in an aqueous composition includes dipotassium glycyrrhizinate sold as NET-DG from Barnet Products Corporation, undecylenoyl phenylalanine sold as Sepiwhite® MSH from Seppic S.A, sodium ascorbyl phosphate sold as Stay-C® 50 from DSM Nutritional Products, Inc, and hexamidine diisethionate sold as Elestab® HP 100 from Cognis.
- the level of particulate materials to be suspended the level of polymers, the specific viscosity and the particular skin feel requirements, the amounts and species of viscosity reducing agents can be determined accordingly. In one embodiment, where the product requires a particular translucency level or skin feel, the amount of required particulate materials can be thereby determined.
- the viscosity reducing agent level together with the acrylic polymer level can be determined without undue effort, depending on a specific viscosity limitation of what is desired within the range of from about 80 mPa.s to about 1000 mPa.s.
- the present composition can comprise one or more humectants.

- the varied levels of particulate materials provide varied translucency levels of the personal care composition from slightly translucent to near opaque.
- the array of compositions with varied translucency can be displayed on shelf together and/or sold together.
- the product viscosity can be measured by a commercially available viscometer, e.g., BROOKFIELD DV II + Viscometer using a UL adapter and an LV spindle set.
- a rotation speed of 5 rpm should be used.
- a rotation speed of 50 rpm should be used.
- the yield value can be measured by using commercial available rheometers.
- the present invention measures the yield value by using a Modular Compact Rheometer PHYSICA MCR 300 with sensor TEZ 150P-C commercially available from Anton Paar GmbH.
- the flow test analysis software is Physica RheoPlus, and the shear rate applied in the measurement is from 0.01 sec "1 to 10 sec "1 .
- the accelerated stability test is conducted at 40 ° C and 75% relative humidity.
- the success criterion for the stability test is that the test product remains stable for at least one week with essentially no particulate materials noticeably settling to the bottom or floating to the top of the product via naked eye observation.
- "Essentially no” means less than about 0.1 %, preferably less than 0.05% of the suspended particulate materials settle to the bottom or float to the top of the product.
- the observation can be facilitated by putting the test product in a transparent container and directing light in a perpendicular direction toward the container.
- Examples A-F represent a number of screen solutions comprising acrylic polymers selected for suspending particulate materials in the present low viscosity personal care compositions.
- Examples G-M represent a number of screen solutions comprising different polymers (other acrylic polymer and non-acrylic polymers) not selected for suspending particulate materials in the present low viscosity personal care compositions.
- Each of the screen solutions for Examples A-M is prepared as follows. First, a polymer solution is prepared by dispersing each of the polymers in water with the pH adjusted to about 6. Then, 0.2% polymethylsilsesquioxane and 0.1 % NaCl is added into the polymer solution and mixed well to arrive at a screen solution.
- Examples A-F which comprise acrylic polymers (certain species of carbomer and acrylates/Cio-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer) provide a selection yield value of at least 0.1 1 Pa and exhibit the requisite suspension stability.
- the selection solutions of Examples G-J which comprise different acrylic polymers provide a selection yield value of less than 0.1 1 Pa and do not exhibit the requisite suspension stability.
- the Examples K-M solutions which comprise non-acrylic polymers e.g., cellulose, gums, polyacrylamide
- non-acrylic polymers e.g., cellulose, gums, polyacrylamide
- Both the internal structure and the yield value threshold provided by the polymers are believed to be important in suspending the particulate materials. Without being bound by theory, it is believed that the non-acrylic polymers, though they provide a selection yield value of higher than 0.11 Pa, they do not build a cross-linked internal structure of the selection like the select acrylic polymer do.
- Examples 1-8 are the low viscosity personal care composition according to the present invention, while Comparative Examples 1-3 are compositions which fall outside of the present invention. Examples 1-8 and Comparative Examples 1-3 compositions can be suitably made as described below:
- a first premix of the polymer is prepared by dispersing each of the acrylic polymers (component # 16-20) of Examples 1-8 and Comparative Examples 1-3 in de-ionized water (component # 1).
- a second premix of the particulate materials is prepared by blending glycols (component # 8, #10) and the particulate materials (component # 11-15) in Examples 1-8 and Comparative Examples 1-3.
- compositions of Examples 1-8 compositions have a viscosity ranging from about 470 mPa.s to about 930 mPa.s. Through using the selected acrylic polymers or mixture of acrylic polymers which have a selection yield value of at least 0.1 lPa, these compositions exhibit stability as defined herein.
- compositions of Comparative Examples 1-3 have a viscosity ranging from 18 to about 500 mPa.s. These compositions comprise acrylic polymers which have a selection yield value of less than 0.11 Pa and do not exhibit stability as defined herein.
