Description

<Desc / Clms Page number 1>

The present application relates to a composition, especially a cosmetic composition, in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion containing an organopolysiloxane elastomer, a hydrophilic polymer and a lipophilic derivative of salicylic acid. The application also relates to the use of said composition, in particular in the cosmetic field, and to the use of the salicylic acid derivative for the stabilization of an oil-in-water emulsion containing a hydrophilic polymer and an organopolysiloxane elastomer.

For various reasons related in particular to a better comfort of use (softness, emollience and others), the current cosmetic compositions are most often in the form of an emulsion of the type oil-in-water (O / W) constituted an aqueous dispersant continuous phase and an oily disperse discontinuous phase or a water-in-oil (W / O) emulsion consisting of an oily dispersant continuous phase and an aqueous dispersed discontinuous phase. O / W emulsions are the most requested in the cosmetic field because they comprise, as external phase, an aqueous phase, which gives them, when applied to the skin, a cooler, less greasy feel and more light as W / O emulsions.

The emulsions are generally stabilized by suitable emulsifying surfactants which, thanks to their amphiphilic structure, are placed at the oil-eye interface and thus stabilize the dispersed droplets. These emulsifiers however have the disadvantage of being penetrating and potentially irritating to the skin, eyes and scalp, especially for sensitive skin subjects.

In addition, such emulsions may have insufficient cosmetic and physicochemical properties (oily touch, instability over time). Increasing the surfactant level generally does not solve the problems mentioned. The required stability is not always achieved and the cosmetic properties are not improved (waxy touch, heavy, lack of freshness on application). Moreover, as indicated above, it is also disadvised to use a too high level of surfactant for reasons of safety.

A solution to overcome instability phenomena of O / W emulsions (creaming and phase shift) is to introduce into the emulsion, thickening agents whose function is to create, within the aqueous phase, a gelled matrix serving to freeze the oily droplets and ensuring a mechanical maintenance of the entire emulsion. Furthermore, it has been envisaged to replace surfactants with hydrophilic polymers comprising in their chain a hydrophilic part and a hydrophobic part, such as copolymers of alkyl-C 10 -C 30 -acrylate and acrylic or methacrylic acid, such as product "PEMULEN TR2" sold by Goodrich, or by hydrophilic polymers derived from 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulphonic acid (AMPS) as described in EP-A-815844.

 However, emulsions stabilized by hydrophilic polymers can have a rough feel. In order to improve the softness of these emulsions, the Applicant has sought to incorporate therein compounds providing softness, and in particular elastomeric organopolysiloxanes (also called silicone elastomers), such as the products marketed by Shin-Etsu under the names KSG.

However, the Applicant has found that, when these organopolysiloxane elastomers are introduced in large quantities, and especially in an amount greater than 1% (of active material), they tend to destabilize the emulsion containing the hydrophilic polymer.

The objective of the invention is to be able to produce oil-in-water (O / W) emulsions having good cosmetic properties (softness), which are stable, that is to say which do not disintegrate or have release of oil, regardless of the amount of silicone elastomer contained in the emulsion.

The inventors have unexpectedly discovered that the use of a lipophilic derivative of salicylic acid makes it possible to produce oil-in-water emulsions containing both a hydrophilic polymer and a silicone elastomer, which are stable, this stability being persistent. even when the rate of silicone elastomer is important. In addition, depending on the polymer used and in particular when the hydrophilic polymer is an AMPS polymer, it is possible to prepare stable emulsions, although possibly free of surfactants conventionally used in this type of emulsion.

Thus, the present invention relates to a composition for topical application in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion comprising an oily phase dispersed in an aqueous phase, and a hydrophilic polymer, characterized in that it contains (1) less an organopolysiloxane elastomer and (2) at least one lipophilic derivative of salicylic acid.

The lipophilic derivative of salicylic acid makes it possible to obtain a stable emulsion. The invention therefore also relates to the use of a lipophilic derivative of salicylic acid for stabilizing an oil-in-water emulsion containing an elastomeric organopolysiloxane and a hydrophilic polymer.

Since the composition is intended for topical application, it contains a physiologically acceptable medium. The term "physiologically acceptable medium" means a non-toxic medium that can be applied to the skin (including the inside of the eyelids), the lips, the nails or the hair of human beings.

<Tb>
Procedure: The water, the preservatives and the dyes are heated to 75/80 C. The AMPS is dispersed with stirring until a transparent and smooth gel is obtained. The mixture is cooled to 55 ° C. and then cyclopentasiloxane and n-octanoyl-5-salicylic acid are added with stirring. It is cooled to 40 ° C., and the KSG-16 is added with stirring and then cooled to room temperature.

We obtain a smooth cream, very soft on the skin. Under microscope, the KSG globules are well dispersed, and the cream is regular. This cream is able to improve the radiance of the complexion of the skin while being very soft.
