Description

COLOR COSMETICS USING NATURALLY-DERIVED MATERIALS

[0001] Color cosmetics are typically pigmented cosmetic compositions such as mascara, eyeliner, makeup, blush, lipstick, eyeshadow and foundation. Color cosmetics are known to be made from a variety of synthetic materials. A trend in the color cosmetic industry is to produce color cosmetics from naturally derived ingredients, such as minerals, waxes, oils, plant extracts, and other natural materials. Consumers are increasingly seeking color cosmetic products made with natural ingredients to fit with their increasingly natural lifestyle.

[0002] The application of cosmetic and personal care products typically involves the formation of a film on skin or hair. When a cosmetic product is applied and allowed to dry, a film is formed which adheres to the skin or hair for an appropriate period of time. For example, application of a foundation to the face involves formation of a color film on the skin.

[0003] Conventionally, the term "film-former" or "film-forming agent" refers to a material which, upon drying, produces a relatively continuous film on keratinous substrates such as skin, hair, or nails. The term "skin" when used herein refers both to face and body skin or lips. Most film-forming cosmetic and personal care products include film-forming agents to provide film- forming properties. Many products on the market today, however, use synthetic fϋm-formers. Recently, a few natural materials have been identified, such as cellulosics, chitins and chitosan, which have been found to have film-forming properties. Examples of natural (and synthetic) film-forming materials include those set forth United States Patent No. 6,342,209 to Patil, et ai., ("Patil") the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.

[0004] Notwithstanding the numerous challenges involved in doing so, it would be desirable in the cosmetic industry if color cosmetics could be produced which use natural film- forming materials to achieve a uniform coating of color cosmetic products, that have adequate adhesion and glide evenly over the application surface without requiring the use of synthetic materials to produce sufficient flexibility or pliability.

[0005] The present invention relates to the surprising discovery that certain natural ingredients can produce excellent film-forming properties in a variety of cosmetic compositions, including color cosmetics. Such natural film-forming materials include chicory root, radish root, rice syrup, maple syrup, corn syrup, and honey (and filtrates or extracts of any of the foregoing), alone or in combination. Such natural ingredients provide excellent fiJm-forming properties

KL3 2642206 ] when used in cosmetics, including color cosmetics, and eliminate much of the flaking and detachment commonly associated with the use of other film-formers. Such film-forming properties include the relatively even distribution of cosmetics, including color cosmetics, on the surface to which the cosmetics are applied. Such cosmetics include, but are not limited to mascara, eyeliner, makeup, nail enamel, blush, lipstick, eyeshadow and foundation.

[0006] Additional embodiments of the present invention include methods of making and using compositions described herein.

[00049] The terms used in this specification generally have their ordinary meanings in the art, within the context of the invention, and in the specific context where each term is used. Certain terms are discussed elsewhere in the specification, to provide additional guidance to the practitioner in describing the compounds, compositions, and methods of the invention and how to make and use them. Moreover, it will be appreciated that the same thing can be said in more than one way. Consequently, alternative language and synonyms may be used for any one or more of the terms discussed herein, nor is any special significance to be placed upon whether or not a term is elaborated or discussed herein. The use of examples anywhere in this specification, including examples of any terms discussed herein, is illustrative only, and in no way limits the scope and meaning of the invention or of any exemplified term. Likewise, the invention is not limited to the examples presented.
