Description

DESCRIPTION
COSMETIC COMPOSITION
TECHNICAL" FIELD
The present invention relates to a cosmetic composition in the form of an emulsion, in particular with creamy texture.
BACKGROUND ART
A cosmetic composition in the form of an emulsion may take various forms such as W/O, O/W, W/O/W and 0/W/O. In most cases, emulsifiers or surfactants are essential for stabilizing the emulsion form.
However, emulsifiers have potential problems such as stimuli on the skin and poor feeling to touch (e.g., sticky feeling).
Pickering reported {J. Chem. Soc. 1907, 9, 2001) an emulsion stabilized with powder particles. Since then, some emulsions stabilized by powder particles and containing no or only a small amount of emulsifier (s) , which are so-called Pickering emulsions, have been proposed. For example, WO 98/42300 discloses a Pickering emulsion comprising fine particles which-have a particle diameter of less than 200 ran and are coated with silicone and the like.
However, in some cases, the stability of such a Pickering emulsion is impaired, and therefore, a new design for stabilizing a Pickering emulsion has been desired.
DISCLOSURE OF INVENTION
An objective of the present invention is to provide a cosmetic composition in the form of a new Pickering emulsion in particular with creamy, texture, which can comprise no or only a small amount of emulsifier (s) but with good stability.
The above objective of the present invention can be achieved by a cosmetic composition in the form of a water-in-oil or oil-in-water emulsion comprising:
a) a continuous phase;
b) a dispersed phase; and
c) particles having a number-average particle size of 200 rati or more which are surface-treated with at least one amphiphilic agent, wherein
the particles are present at the interface between the continuous phase and the dispersed phases, and
the composition optionally comprises at least one emulsifier in an amount of 1 wt% or less relative to the total weight of the composition.
It is preferable that the continuous phase is an oily phase, and the dispersed phase is an aqueous phase.
It is preferable that the particles have been partially
surface-treated with the amphiphilic agent (s) .
It is preferable that the amphiphilic agent comprises at least one hydrophobicized amino acid. The hydrophobicized amino acid may be a glutamic acid derivative or a condensate of a glutamic acid derivative and an amino acid.
The particles may comprise at least one inorganic material. The inorganic material may be metal oxide.
It is preferable that the cosmetic composition according to the present invention satisfies the following formula:
1.5<{B/ (A-C) }<8 wherein
A denotes a mass amount of the (a) continuous phase;
B denotes a mass amount of the (b) dispersed phases; and
C denotes a mass amount of the (c) particles.
In the cosmetic composition according to the present invention, the ratio of the mass amounts of the (a) continuous phase, (b) dispersed phases, and (c) particles may be 15-35:40-75:3-25.
The continuous phase may comprise at least one non polar or low polar oil .
The continuous phase may comprise at least one rheological agent.
The dispersed phases may comprise at least one water-soluble polymer.
The cosmetic composition according to the present invention may comprise at least one at least one hydrophobic filler and/or at least one hydrophobic pigment.
The cosmetic composition according to the present invention may further comprise at least one surface-untreated filler and/or at least one surface-untreated pigment.
If the cosmetic composition according to the present invention comprises emulsifier (s) , it is preferable that the emulsifier (s) has/have an HLB value of 10 or less. The invention also concerns a cosmetic process including a step of applying on keratinic material, in particular on skin, and preferably on face skin, a composition according to the invention.
BEST- MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
The inventors performed diligent research and found that a cosmetic composition in the form of so-called Pickering emulsion can be stabilized by using particles which are relatively larger than those used in conventional Pickering emulsions, and which are
surface-treated or coated with at least one amphiphilic agent which may preferably comprise at least one hydrophobic!zed amino acid.
Thus, the present invention can provide a new Pickering emulsion which can comprise no or only a small amount of surfactant (s) but can show good stability. Thus, the cosmetic composition according to the present invention can maintain uniform appearance and shows no or only a small amount of stimuli on the skin.
The cosmetic composition according to the present invention may have better stability as compared to conventional Pickering emulsions. In addition, the cosmetic composition according to the present invention can show good creamy texture.
The cosmetic composition according to the present invention is characterized by comprising:
a) a continuous phase;
b). a dispersed phase; and
c) particles having a number-average particle size of 200 nm or more, which are surface-treated with at least one amphiphilic agent, wherein
the particles are present at the interface between the continuous phase and the dispersed phases, and
the composition optionally comprises at least one emulsifier in an amount of 1 wt% or less relative to the total weight of the composition.
The cosmetic composition according to the present invention can be used in a cosmetic process including a step of applying on keratinic materials, in particular skin, and preferably on face skin, the composition according to the present invention.

According to the present invention, the above-described particles have been surface-treated with at least one amphiphilic agent, -in particular the above-described particles have been partially or fully surface-treated with at least one amphiphilic agent. It is preferable that the particles are partially treated with the amphiphilic agent (s). The particles are located between the continuous phase and the dispersed phase of the cosmetic composition according to the present invention, to form a Pickering emulsion. The dispersed phases preferably connect with each other via the particles.
The amphiphilic agent can provide particles with both hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties. Preferably, the particles have an amphiphilic- surface.
The amphiphilic agent may comprise at least one compound chosen from, for example, amino acids; waxes, for example, carnauba wax and beeswax; fatty acids, fatty alcohols and derivatives thereof, such as stearic acid, hydroxystearic acid, stearyl alcohol,

For the purposes of the present invention, the surface treatment is such that a. surface-treated pigment conserves its intrinsic pretreatment pigmenting properties and a surface-treated filler conserves its intrinsic pretreatment filling properties. For example, the inorganic substrates such as alumina and silica- onto which organic dyes are adsorbed are not surface-treated fillers for the purposes of the present invention.
The particles may be surface-treated with a mixture of amphiphilic agents, and/or may be subjected to several surface treatments with amphiphilic agents.

As the salt, mention may be made of metal salts, ammonium salts and onium salts of an organic alkanolamine as mentioned above. Sodium salt is preferable. The acyl group bound to the nitrogen atom of the glutamic acid may be derived from a saturated or unsaturated fatty acid having 8 to 22 carbon atoms as mentioned above. Laurie acid is preferable. Thus, for example, sodium dilauramidoglutamide lysine (Pellicer L-30 marketed by Asahi Kasei Chemicals) is preferable as the above condensate.

The amount of the oil may be 5 to 90 wt%, preferably 10 to 80 wt%, more preferably 20 to 70 wt%, and further more preferably 40 to 60 wt%, relative to the total weight of the cosmetic composition according to the present invention.
The oily phase may comprise at least one fatty alcohol. Two or more fatty alcohols may be used.
The term "fatty alcohol" here means an alcohol having a long aliphatic carbon chain. It is preferable that the fatty alcohol be selected from any pure, saturated or unsaturated, linear or branched C8-C30 fatty alcohols.
Among the C8-C30 fatty alcohols, C12-C22 fatty alcohols are, for example, used. C16-Ci8 fatty alcohols are more preferable.

The Rheomat 180 is equipped with a different rotor according to the viscosities, for example with a rotor 3 for the range of viscosities from 0.2 to 4 Pa.s, and with a rotor 4 for the range of viscosities greater than 2 Pa.s. This viscosity is generally measured 10 minutes after the rotation of the rotor has begun. When measured under the conditions indicated above, the viscosity of the oily phase can range, for example, from 1 to 500 Pa.s, and preferably from 10 to 100 Pa.s.
The oily phase may comprise at least one rheological agent.
This rheological agent is capable of thickening and/or gelling the oil phase. It may be present in an amount which is effective for increasing the viscosity of this phase, particularly until a solid gel is obtained, namely a product which does not flow under its own weight.
The rheological agent is advantageously selected from lipophilic gelling agents, organic gellers and mixtures thereof. If the rheological agent is a solid, the particle size of the rheological agent is preferably 300 nm or less, and more preferably 100 nm or less .
The lipophilic gelling agent may be organic or mineral, polymeric or molecular.
As an inorganic lipophilic gelling agent, mention may be. made of optionally modified clays, such as hectorites modified with a Cm to C22 fatty acid ammonium chloride, such as hectorite modified with distearyldimethylammonium chloride.
Mention may also be made of optionally surface-hydrophobicized pyrogenic silica whose particle size is less than 1 urn. It is possible in effect to modify chemically the surface of the silica, by a chemical reaction which brings about a decrease in the number of silanol groups present on the surface of the silica. In particular, it is possible to substitute the silanol groups with hydrophobic groups: in that case a hydrophobic silica is obtained. The hydrophobic groups may be
- trimethylsiloxyl groups, obtained in particular by treating pyrogenic silica in the presence of hexamethyldisilazane . Silicas treated in this way are named "silica silylate" according to the CTFA (6th edition, 1995) . They are sold, for example, under the names Aerosil R812® by Degussa and CAB-O-SIL TS-530® by Cabot.
- dimethylsilyloxyl or polydimethylsiloxane groups, obtained in particular by treating pyrogenic silica in the presence of polydimethylsiloxane or dimethydichlorosilane . Silicas treated in this way are named "silica dimethyl silylate" according to the CTFA (6th edition, 1995) . They are sold for example under the names Aerosil R972®, Aerosil R974® by Degussa and CAB-O-SIL TS-610® and CAB-O-SIL TS-720® by Cabot.
The hydrophobic pyrogenic silica preferably has a particle size,which can be nanometric to micrometric, ranging for example from 5 to 200 nm approximately.
The polymeric organic lipophilic gelling agents are, for example, partly or completely crosslinked elastomeric organopolysiloxanes having a three-dimensional structure, such as those sold under the names KSG6, KSG16 and KSG18 by Shin-Etsu, Trefil E-505C or Trefil E-506C by Dow-Corning, Gransil SR-CYC, SR DMF10, SR-DC556, SR 5CYC gel, SR D F 10 gel, SR DC 556 gel from Grant Industries, SF 1204 and JK 113 by General Electric; ethylcellulose such as those sold under the name Ethocel by Dow Chemical; polyamides such as copolymers of a C36 diacid condensed with ethylene-diamine, with a number-average molecular mass of approximately 6000, such as the compounds sold by Arizona Chemical under the names Uniclear 80 and Uniclear 100, gums, especially silicone gums, such as PDMS having a viscosity >100 000 centistokes, galacto-mannans containing from one to six and better still from two to four hydroxyl groups per saccharide unit, substituted by a saturated or unsaturated alkyl chain, such as guar gum alkylated with Ci to C6 alkyl chains and better still Ci to C3 alkyl chains, and mixtures thereof.
As a preferred lipophilic gelling agent, use is made of non-polymeric molecular organic gelling agents, also dubbed organic gellers, which are compounds whose molecules are capable of establishing, between themselves, physical interactions leading to self-aggregation of the molecules with formation of a 3D macromolecular network which is responsible for the gelation of the liquid fatty phase.
A liquid fatty phase in the sense of the invention is a fatty phase which is liquid at ambient temperature (25° C.) and atmospheric pressure (760 mmHg or 105 Pa) and is composed of one or more fatty substances which are liquid at ambient temperature, also called oils, which are generally mutually compatible.
The macromolecular network may result from the formation of a network of fibrils (owing to stacking or aggregation of organic geller molecules) , which immobilizes the molecules of the liquid fatty phase .
The ability to form this network of fibrils, and hence to gel, depends on the nature (or chemical class) of the organic geller, on the nature of the substituents carried by its molecules for a given chemical class, and on the nature of the liquid fatty phase.
The physical interactions are diverse but exclude co-crystallization. These physical interactions are, in particular, interactions such as self-complementary hydrogen interactions, n interactions between unsaturated rings, dipolar interactions, coordination bonds with organometallic derivatives, and combinations thereof. In general, each molecule of an organic geller. can establish a number of types of physical interaction with a neighbouring molecule. Thus, advantageously, the molecules of the organic gellers according to the invention include at least one group capable of establishing hydrogen bonds and, better still, at least two groups capable of establishing hydrogen bonds, at least one aromatic ring, and better still at least two aromatic rings, at least one or more bonds with ethylenic unsaturation and/or at least one or more asymmetric carbons . The groups capable of forming hydrogen bonds are preferably selected from hydroxyl, carbonyl, amine, carboxylic acid, amide, urea and benzyl groups and combinations thereof.
The organic geller or gellers according to the invention are soluble in the liquid fatty phase after heating to give a transparent homogeneous liquid phase. They may be solid or liquid at ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure.
The molecular organic geller or gellers which can be used in the cosmetic composition according to the present invention are, in particular, those described in the document "Specialist Surfactants", edited by D. Robb, 1997, p. 209-263, Chapter 8 by P. Terech, European applications EP-A-1068854 and EP-A-1086945 or else application WO-A-02/47031.
Among these organic gellers mention may be made in particular of the amides of carboxylic acids, especially tricarboxylic acids, such as cyclohexane-tricarboxamides (see European patent application
EP-A-1068854) , diamides having hydrocarbon chains each containing 1 to 22 carbon atoms, for example 6 to 18 carbon atoms, the said chains being unsubstituted or substituted by at least one substituent selected from ester, urea and fluoro groups (see application
EP-A-1086945) , and in particular the diamides resulting from the reaction of diaminocyclohexane, in particular diaminocyclohexane in trans form, and an acid chloride such as, for example,

The materials in Phase A2 were mixed with a discontinous mil for 30 minutes to obtain a pigment dispersion wherein the number-average particle size around 200-300nm. This dispersion was mixed with the materials in Phase Al with MORITZ at 2000rpm. The materials in Phase B were put into the mixture of the materials in Phase Al and A2, mixing at 3000 rpm with MORITZ. And then, the materials in Phase C were put into this mixture to prepare a W/O emulsion.
[Emulsion Stability]
The stability of the emulsion according to Examples 2 and 3 as well as Comparative Example 2 was observed by optical microscope. The emulsions according to Example 2 and 3 were uniform, and had good shape of emulsion particles during the observation. However, the shape of the emulsion according to Comparative Example 2 was not spherical and some emulsion particles were broken in 1 minute. If uniformity was maintained, it was evaluated as "Good", whereas if uniformity was not maintained, it was evaluated as "Poor". The results are shown in Table 2.
[Sensory Evaluation]
The sensory evaluation was performed for Example 2 and Comparative Example 2, and it was found that Example 2 is more creamy, less sticky and conforms to the skin better than Comparative Example 2.
