Description

The present invention relates to a method for removing make-up from a composition, in particular a cosmetic composition, intended for the coating of nails, in particular the makeup of nails, more particularly a nail polish, preferably an aqueous continuous phase. Conventionally, the makeup and / or care of the nails or false nails is achieved using a nail polish composition applied by means of a brush. At present, most of the compositions in the form of nail polish are based on a mixture of organic solvents containing nitrocellulose, an arylsulfonamide formaldehyde resin or an alkyd resin and a plasticizer. Such varnishes, because of the presence of organic solvents, have a number of disadvantages mainly related to the use of solvent and which, in particular, very often generate, when applied an uncomfortable odor. In addition, the removal of such compositions is not easy, conventionally passing through the use of an organic solvent. In recent years, research has therefore focused on the development of nail polishes free of organic solvents and in particular aqueous varnish.

Such aqueous varnishes have been used in application devices other than brushes. For example, the document FR 2,537,871 describes a water-based, completely pigment-free, low-viscosity nail polish containing dyes such as acidic organic dyes, which can be adapted to an application by means of a device with an application wick. However, this type of varnish has the disadvantage of impregnating the nails, making makeup difficult, which is not desirable. In addition, such makeup can be excessively transparent and lack of coverage. EP2109481 discloses a felt tip applicator, and an aqueous continuous phase nail polish composition comprising a particulate phase comprising at least two film-forming polymers and a dispersing agent. However, these compositions of better opacity and coverage are also not easy to remove. The present invention therefore relates to an improved makeup removal process of a composition preferably comprising a continuous aqueous phase.

In particular an object of the present invention is to implement a makeup removal method adapted to a colored aqueous composition, and / or good opacity, and / or whose particle dispersion is stable over time and / or the smooth deposit and regular, and / or good behavior over time.

The present invention thus relates to a method for removing a coating composition from a nail, in particular makeup or care, comprising: - a step of applying a composition to the nails comprising: - an aqueous phase , preferably continuous, - a particulate phase comprising at least one film-forming polymer in the form of particles in aqueous dispersion, - at least one polymeric dispersing agent capable of dispersing the particulate phase in the aqueous phase, and - a step of removing said composition comprising heating the nails coated with said composition at a temperature of 35 to 55 ° C, preferably 40 to 50 ° C. The present invention makes it possible to remove the composition more easily, in particular to remove it in the form of a film, by peeling. The present invention is more particularly directed to a method for removing make-up from a composition of the nail varnish type. This composition, preferably of low viscosity, is advantageously applied by a felt tip applicator, in particular a felt tip pen, preferably without a valve, capable of delivering the varnish by capillarity on the nails in a smooth and regular manner.

The amount of dry extract (abbreviated as ES) of a composition according to the invention is measured by means of a commercial halogen desiccant "HALOGEN MOISTURE ANALYZER HR 73" from METTLER TOLEDO. The measurement is based on the weight loss of a sample dried by halogen heating and thus represents the percentage of residual material once the volatiles have evaporated. The measurement protocol is as follows: about 2 g of the composition, hereinafter the sample, is spread on a metal cup. The metal cup is then introduced into the halogen desiccant mentioned above. The sample is then subjected to a temperature of 105 ° C until a constant weight is obtained. The wet mass of the sample, corresponding to its initial mass before crosslinking, and the dry mass of the sample, corresponding to its mass after crosslinking and halogen heating, are measured by means of a precision balance.

The experimental error related to the measurement is of the order of plus or minus 2%. The content of dry extract is calculated as follows: Dry extract content (expressed in% by weight) = 100 × (Dry mass / Wet mass).

These techniques make it possible to measure a particle diameter and, for some of them, a particle size distribution.

Preferably, the sizes and particle size distributions of the compositions according to the invention are measured by static light scattering by means of a commercial Master Sizer 2000 type granulometer from Malvern. The data is processed on the basis of Mie scattering theory.

PACKAGING AND APPLICATION ASSEMBLY A composition according to the invention is advantageously packaged in an applicator forming a packaging system and application device.

According to a preferred embodiment, this applicator is of the felt tip applicator type, more particularly felt tip pen. Felt tip applicator The term "felt tip" refers to a tip of felt or synthetic fibers. For the purposes of the present invention, the term "felt-tip pen" designates a gripping instrument consisting of a tube terminating in a point and containing a reserve of a liquid pouring through the tip as soon as it is applied on a support. A "felt tip applicator" or "felt tip pen" is distinct from a ball pen or any simple bristle device used for the application of conventional nail polish compositions. Figure 1 shows schematically, in elevation, an example of an applicator pen suitable for the application of the composition. Figure 2 is a longitudinal section along II-II of Figure 1, according to a first embodiment. Figure 3 is a longitudinal section along II-II of Figure 1, according to a second embodiment. In general, the applicator 1 comprises a body 2 of elongated shape along a longitudinal axis X, provided at one end with an applicator element 3, 3 'and possibly at a second end opposite the first end of the applicator. a closure member which is in the example illustrated in the form of a cap which can be fixed on the body 2, for example by snapping in order to obtain a tight closure of the applicator in the absence of use . The body 2 is closed at the end opposite to the applicator element 3 by a bottom 5 which is for example snapped or frictionally held in the body 2.

The wall of the body 2 may be substantially non-deformable, the transfer of the composition to the region to be treated is effected by capillarity maintaining the pressure balance between the reservoir and the external environment. Alternatively, a vent port may be provided in the body 2 of the applicator to restore the internal pressure of the device after dispensing the composition through the applicator member 3 '. In the example considered, the application element 3 is axially fixed relative to the body 2 during the application. The application element 3 can be given various shapes. In the illustrated example, the tip of the application element 3 is wedge-shaped, when viewed from the side in the direction of the arrows II of FIG. 1, but it could be given to the tip of the application element of FIG. other forms for example conical, frustoconical, two-pointed, with cut sides, concave edges or other. The application element 3 can also be covered with fibers on its surface, for example by flocking. The wall of the body 2 could be made if necessary in a softer material so as to allow the user to create an overpressure inside the tank to increase the flow rate of the composition to the application for example. According to a first exemplary embodiment illustrated in FIG. 2, the body 2 contains a composition P which impregnates a block 7 made of a porous material, for example wadding, which may optionally be surrounded by a sheath 8 whose diameter external part substantially corresponds to the internal diameter of the body 2. Such a block 7 is thus made of a hydrophilic material capable of impregnating a composition according to the invention. This block may, if necessary, let air pass so as to regulate the pressure differences between the inside and the outside of the tank, in particular following a distribution of composition by the application element 3. In the example illustrated, the block 7 occupies most of the height of the applicator 1 and bears at one end against the bottom 5, so that the block 7 forms the reservoir of composition P. The transport of the composition to the application element 3 is then carried out by capillarity. In the illustrated example, a wick 10 is applied at a first end against the block 7 and at a second opposite end against the application element 3. The wick 10 is thus ensures a fluid communication between the block 7 and the application element 3.

The wick 10, as well as the applicator element 3, are advantageously engaged in a chimney 12 which, in the example in question, is made in one piece with the body 2 by molding thermoplastic material. In this embodiment, the applicator element 3, as well as the wick 10, are produced independently of one another, in any material allowing the composition to be transported by capillarity, in particular any compressed fiber material, porous composite, foam, cellulose, sintered mineral or plastic, for example sintered elastomeric beads. Preferably, the application element 3 and the wick 10 are made of the same material, in particular compressed fibers. One method of manufacturing such an applicator member and wick is, for example, to gather polyester-type synthetic fibers by adjusting the tension and subjecting them to hot compression molding in a cylindrical mold. The cylindrical bundle of fibers formed, with the required cross section, preferably circular, is introduced through an orifice into a resin bath in solution and passed through the resin in solution. The cylindrical fiber bundle impregnated with the resin in solution is passed through a heating oven to remove the solvent and cure the resin. The cylindrical bundle of fibers is then cut to the corresponding length. To form a tip, the cut pieces are ground at one end and tapered at a point. The resins used to bond the fiber bundle include thermosetting resins such as unsaturated polyesters, urea formaldehyde, phenol, epoxy, melamine, polyurethane resins, and thermoplastic resins such as polyvinyl acetates, polyolefins and low-density polyesters. Fusion point. Preferably, the synthetic resin used to bind the polyester fibers is a polyurethane type resin. In this embodiment, the wick 10 may for example have a height, in the axis of elongation of the device, ranging from 5 to 20 mm, in particular from 15 to 20 mm, especially for a cross section having a diameter in its widest part of 2 to 8mm, especially 4 to 6mm. In this embodiment, the applicator element 3 ending in felt tip may for example have a height, in the axis of elongation of the device, ranging from 10 to 30 mm, in particular from 15 to 20 mm, in particular for a cross section having a diameter in its widest part of 2 to 8mm, especially 4 to 6mm. According to a second embodiment illustrated in FIG. 3, the wick 10 and the application element 3 are made in one piece forming a plunging application element 3 ', having a first end in contact with a reservoir of composition P, extending between a block 7 'impermeable to the composition P, and the bottom 5, and a second end opposite the first end forming the applicator end. Thus, a space extends between the block 7 'and the bottom 5 to accommodate the composition P in the free state, intended to pass through the application member 3'. As a result, the composition P to be dispensed is not trapped in a composition retention block in this embodiment. Indeed, this second embodiment provides a hydrophobic block 7 '. Such a block is thus incapable of impregnating composition P which will remain in the free state in the reservoir. However, this block may optionally pass air so as to regulate the pressure differences between the inside and the outside of the tank in particular following a composition distribution by the application element 3 '. This second embodiment also preferably comprises, in the composition tank P, a ball 9 able to be displaced by agitation, for example manual, of the packaging and application system, and this in order to facilitate the (re) dispersion of the pigment (s) and / or avoid sedimentation of pigment (s). In this embodiment, the application element 3 'may for example have a height in the axis of elongation of the device ranging from 40 to 100 mm, in particular from 45 to 65 mm, in particular for a cross section having a diameter in its widest part of 2 to 8mm, especially 4 to 6mm. In this embodiment, the application element 3 'is made of at least one material allowing the composition to be transported by capillarity, in particular any material made of compressed fibers, of porous composite, of foam, of cellulose, of sintered mineral or plastic material, for example sintered elastomer balls. Preferably, the application element 3 'is made of compressed fibers, in particular compressed polyester fibers, advantageously according to the same method of manufacture as previously described with reference to the first embodiment. In another variant of this second embodiment, block 7 is absent.

Preferably, in the context of the present invention, the application element 3, 3 'remains in permanent fluid communication with the composition contained in the reservoir. More preferably, the applicator according to the present invention is devoid of valve, in particular between the reservoir and the applicator element 3, 3 '.

Finally, preferably, the applicator according to the present invention does not require any pressure on the body 2 to promote the flow of the composition through the application element 3, 3 '. In order to use the applicator, the user grasps the body 2 in the manner of a pen and can bring the tip of the applicator element into contact with the nail, in particular from the inside edge to the outer edge of the pen. nail. A felt tip applicator according to the invention is advantageously such that the average rate of capillary rise of the composition is greater than or equal to 0.50 mm / s, preferably greater than or equal to 0.60 mm / s, preferably ranges from 0.70 mm / s to 5 mm / s, better from 0.75 mm / s to 2 mm / s. The method used to determine the capillary rise speed through the application element (in particular the wick) is the following: - Use an application element 3, 3 'preferably with a maximum height of 12.5 mm and preferably a regular geometry, otherwise cut the mine to meet its requirements, - Put 4 ml of a composition according to the invention in a cylindrical glass container having a diameter of 45 mm, - Remove the application element 3, 3 'at the center of the cylinder perpendicular to the support and start the timer, - Measure the time so that the entire top of the application element 3, 3' is wet, and - Divide the height of the applicator element 3, 3 'by the capillary rise time to calculate the capillary rise rate through the applicator element 3, 3'.

An application element 3, 3 'in accordance with the invention has a free volume percentage ranging from 50 to 80, more particularly from 55 to 75. The method used to determine the percentage of free volume of the application element 3, 3 '(in particular the wick) is as follows: 1- Calculate the volume of the application element based on the dimensions of the application element, since preferably the element The application is of cylindrical shape (example: V = T r 2 h), 2 Weigh the mass of the application element 3, 3 'empty, 3 Place the application element 3, 3' in the distilled water until the wick is filled, 4- Quickly remove the excess water and weigh the application element 3, 3 'filled with water, 5- Calculate the mass of water absorbed by the corresponding wick to the mass of the filled applicator element 3, 3 ', minus the mass of the empty wick, 6- Calculate the volume of water absorbed corresponding to the water mass absorbed by the application element 3, 3 ', divided by the density of water, and 7- Calculate the percentage of free volume of the application element 3, 3' corresponding to the volume of water. absorbed water multiplied by 100, divided by the volume of the application element 3, 3 '. According to a preferred embodiment, an application element of the felt tip type according to the invention has the following characteristics: a capillary rise speed (mm / sec): 0.75 mm / sec to 1.5 mm / sec - A percentage of free volume ranging from 55 to 75, and - is made of polyester fibers having a cross section relative to an axis of elongation of said wick from 40 to 50pm.
