Description

Hair treatment agent for increasing volume

The invention relates to the use of an enzymatic combination of active substances for increasing the volume of keratinic fibers. The invention further relates to an agent based on the combination of enzymatic active ingredients and a further, the hair volume-increasing active ingredient, and a method for increasing the volume of keratinic fibers using the agent according to the invention.

As a result of environmental problems and pollution and its consequences, people's awareness of the use and composition of cosmetic products has changed in recent years. So no longer required is a wealth of hair and skin treatment products, but optimally only one or two agents that should meet a large part of the requirements for cleaning, care, styling, coloring and bleaching. In addition, mild natural cosmetic products are sought, which are at least largely biodegradable and ensure gentle treatment of the skin and / or hair, without containing a major proportion of aggressive chemical agents that can negatively impact the skin and / or hair. These requirements for cosmetic products are constantly resulting in new problems and difficulties in their production.

Fine, smooth hair is prone to lack of volume and the resulting, faster re-greasing. Furthermore, it is difficult to fine-tune fine and all-too-smooth hair, so that aids such as mousse or hair sprays, often combined with additional hair-dryer heat, and / or permanent wave treatments are used. By using these tools, however, the hair structure can be attacked, which, especially with frequent repetition, a hair damage can be caused.

Thus, there has recently been no lack of efforts to provide means for increasing the hair volume, which are based predominantly on hair-sparing, natural active ingredients, but there is still a need for mild drug combinations that do not have the aforementioned problems, and a permanent increase in volume of human hair without causing damage to the hair structure.

Surprisingly, it has now been found that the use of a special enzymatic combination of active substances fulfills the above-mentioned requirements to a high degree. The invention therefore relates to the cosmetic use of an enzymatic combination of active substances consisting of i. an oxidase, ii. a substrate for the oxidase and iii. a peroxidase for increasing the volume of keratinic fibers, especially human hair.

With the use according to the invention, the volume of fine and smooth hair could be sustainably increased, whereby the hair could be better styled, without the classic styling aids had to be applied. In addition, hair obtained by the use of the invention a volume improvement, which is equivalent to a volume improvement after a permanent wave treatment, without having to resort to oxidizing agents, chemically aggressive drugs or Fönhitze.

Furthermore, the hair structure of the hair was much less affected compared to the use of commercially available means.

In particular, an oxidase suitable according to the invention is understood as meaning glucose oxidase, a substrate suitable for the oxidase D-glucose according to the invention and a peroxidase lactoperoxidase which is suitable according to the invention.

It may be preferred according to the invention that the substrate ii) - based on its total weight - further contains a maximum of 1 wt .-% iodide and Thiocyanationen.

The active ingredient combination according to the invention can be used in a one-component agent, although care must be taken that the substrate has to be incorporated separately from the oxidase and the peroxidase into the agent to be used according to the invention.

For some forms of use according to the invention, however, it may be preferred that the enzymatic combination of active ingredients is used in a 2-component keratinic fiber volume increase agent, wherein components i) and iii) are physically separate from component ii) and only shortly before application are mixed together on the keratinic fibers.

However, the epoxy oxygen content should be at least 3% by weight, preferably 5-10% by weight.

The epoxy fatty acid esters are either epoxidized fatty acid esters of monohydric alcohols, e.g. epoxidized oleic acid methyl ester, linoleic acid methyl ester, ricinoleic acid methyl ester or epoxidized fatty acid esters of polyhydric alcohols, e.g. Glycerol monooleate or propylene glycol monooleate or epoxidized fatty acid triglycerides, e.g. Oleic acid triglyceride or unsaturated oils, e.g. Olive oil, soybean oil, sunflower oil, linseed oil, rapeseed oil.

Especially interesting from a technical point of view are unsaturated fatty acid methyl ester epoxides from unsaturated vegetable fatty acids. For example, the reaction product of a vegetable oil fatty acid methyl ester epoxide with a polyol having 2 to 6 C atoms and 2 to 6 hydroxyl groups is particularly preferred as ester polyol. As polyols, e.g. Ethylene glycol, 1, 2-propylene glycol, 1, 3-propylene glycol, butanediol, pentanediol, hexanediol, glycerol, trimethylolpropane, pentaerythritol, sorbitol or diglycerol.

Especially good is it for the novel bleach ester polyol is the reaction product of a Pflanzenfettsäuremethylester epoxidate with trimethylolpropane and having a hydroxyl number from 350 - 450. Such a product based on epoxy and Sojaölfettsäuremethylester- trimethylolpropane is available under the trade name Sovermol ^® 760th

Furthermore, vitamin B ₃ can be used as structure-improving active ingredient. Under this name, the compounds nicotinic acid and nicotinamide (niacinamide) are often performed. According to the invention, the nicotinic acid amide is preferred.

Vitamin H can also be used as structurally improving active ingredient in the context of the present invention. Vitamin H is the compound (3aS, 4S, 6aR) -2-oxohexahydrothienol [3,4-d] - imidazole-4-valeric acid, for which, however, in the meantime, the trivial name biotin has prevailed.

Structure-improving active ingredients which are particularly preferred according to the invention are selected from panthenol, physiologically tolerated panthenol derivatives, mono-, di- and Oligosaccharides, serine, lactic acid, glyceric acid, niacinamide, vitamin B6, polyvinylpyrrolidone, glucose, gluconic acid, biotin and the lipid-soluble ester alcohols or ester polyols.

The agents according to the invention contain the structure-improving and / or hair-conditioning active ingredient (s), preferably in amounts of from 0.01 to 10% by weight, preferably from 0.05 to 5% by weight and in particular of from 0.1 to 2 wt .-%.

In a further, particularly preferred embodiment of the invention, it is advantageous for the stabilizing agents according to the invention to comprise at least one thickener.

Commonly used thickening systems contain polymers.

Polymers, regardless of their chemical structure and charge, generally have multiple functions in cosmetic compositions. The description of the polymers according to their function in the compositions according to the invention thus does not necessarily correspond to an evaluation or significance of these polymers. Rather, all polymers are in principle to be considered equivalent for use in the compositions of the invention, although some of these polymers may be preferred. In the case of using polymers as thickeners, for example, this means that cationic polymers such as cationic cellulose or cationic guar types also have a stabilizing and thickening function. Nevertheless, for purposes of stabilization and thickening, other polymers have often proven more effective. Polymers which can bring about several desired effects are therefore particularly preferred for use in the compositions according to the invention.

Polymers can increase the viscosity of aqueous and non-aqueous phases in cosmetic preparations. In aqueous phases, their viscosity-increasing function is due to their solubility in water or their hydrophilic nature. They are used in both surfactant and emulsion systems.

Of course, the emulsion-stabilizing polymers are also among the polymers preferred according to the invention. These are understood to mean polymers which essentially support the structure and the stabilization of emulsions (O / W and W / O as well as multiple emulsions). Surfactants and emulsifiers are of course the essential ingredients, but the stabilizing polymers contribute to a reduction in the coalescence of the emulsified droplets by positively affecting the continuous or disperse phase. This positive influence may be due to an electrical repulsion, an increase in viscosity or a film formation on the surface of the droplets. These properties of the polymers in question can also be used to particular advantage in the compositions according to the invention in order to keep the active substances, the modified titanium dioxide particles, according to the invention, stably dispersed in the compositions according to the invention.

The alkyl polyglycosides which can be used according to the invention can only contain one particular alkyl radical R. Usually, however, these compounds are prepared starting from natural fats and oils or mineral oils. In this case, the alkyl radicals R are mixtures corresponding to the starting compounds or corresponding to the particular work-up of these compounds.

Preference is given to those UV filters whose molar extinction coefficient at the absorption maximum is above 15,000, in particular above 20,000.

Furthermore, it has been found that structurally similar UV filters in many cases, the water-insoluble compound in the teaching of the invention has the higher effect compared to such water-soluble compounds that differ from it by one or more additional ionic groups. For the purposes of the invention, water-insoluble UV filters are those which dissolve in water at not more than 1% by weight, in particular not more than 0.1% by weight, at 20 ^° C. Furthermore, these compounds should be soluble in the usual cosmetic oil components at room temperature to at least 0.1, in particular at least 1 wt .-%). The use of water-insoluble UV filters may therefore be preferred according to the invention.

According to a further embodiment of the invention, preference is given to those UV filters which have a cationic group, in particular a quaternary ammonium group. These UV filters have the general structure U - Q.

The structural part U stands for a UV-absorbing group.

Preferably, however, one of the four substituents on the positively charged nitrogen atom is a group, especially an alkylene group of 2 to 6 carbon atoms, which functions as a compound between the structural portion U and the positively charged nitrogen atom.

Advantageously, the group Q has the general structure - (CH ₂ ) _X -N ⁺ R ¹ R ² R ³ X ^' , in which x is an integer from 1 to 4, R ¹ and R ² independently of one another are d 1 Alkyl groups, R ³ is a Ci_ ₂₂ alkyl group or a benzyl group and X ^'is a physiologically acceptable anion. In the context of this general structure, x preferably represents the number 3, R ¹ and R ² each represent a methyl group and R ^{3 represents} either a methyl group or a saturated or unsaturated, linear or branched hydrocarbon chain having 8 to 22, in particular 10 to 18, carbon atoms. Physiologically acceptable anions are, for example, inorganic anions such as halides, in particular chloride, bromide and fluoride, sulfate ions and phosphate ions and organic anions such as lactate, citrate, acetate, tartrate, methosulfate and tosylate.

Two preferred UV filters with cationic groups are the commercially available compounds cinnamic acid-trimethylammonium chloride (lncroquat ^® UV-283) and dodecyl tosylate (Escalol ^® HP 610).

Dimethiconols (S1) form the first group of silicones which are particularly preferred according to the invention. The dimethiconols according to the invention can be both linear and branched as well as cyclic or cyclic and branched. Linear dimethiconols can be represented by the following structural formula (S1-I):

Branched dimethiconols can be represented by the structural formula (S1-II):

Of course, the teaching of the invention also includes that the dimethiconols may already be present as an emulsion. In this case, the corresponding emulsion of the dimethiconols can be prepared both after the preparation of the corresponding dimethiconols from these and the usual methods of emulsification known to the person skilled in the art. For this purpose, both cationic, anionic, nonionic or zwitterionic surfactants and emulsifiers can be used as auxiliaries for the preparation of the corresponding emulsions. Of course, the emulsions of the dimethiconols can also be prepared directly by an emulsion polymerization process. Such methods are also well known to the person skilled in the art.
