Description

MASK FOR CARING FOR KERATIN MATERIALS TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to a cosmetic mask for topical application. In particular, the present invention relates to a mask for caring for keratin materials. The present invention also relates to a non-therapeutic process for caring for keratin materials.
BACKGROUND ART
Masks are popular with many consumers since they can put the masks on the face for a period of time and then take away the masks, without massaging on the face during the application.
Such mask products are made of a fibrous/polymer-based sheet material impregnated with a liquid formula. The most common sheet material used for such products is nonwovens because of their easy availability and cost effectiveness.
As stated above, these sheet mask products are impregnated with a liquid formula comprising skincare ingredients.
For example, WO 02/062132 discloses a mask comprising: (1) a water insoluble substrate; and (2) a liquid composition comprising: (a) a skin tone changing agent selected from skin tone changing pigments, reflective particulate material, and mixtures thereof, wherein the skin tone changing agent has a particle size of at least about 100nm; (b) a water-soluble thickening agent which provides the liquid composition a viscosity of from about 1000 mPa·s to about 600,000 mPa·s; and (c) an aqueous carrier. The mask disclosed therein provides acute skin tone changing benefit to the skin.
US20190142139A1 discloses a face mask for beauty care that can easily be brought into contact with various facial surface shapes differing for each person. The face mask is configured to cover the entire face of a user; has a non-linear cut in a portion which comes into contact with the bottom region of a concave portion of the facial surface of the user; and has a non-linear cut in a portion which comes into contact with the apex region of a convex portion of the facial surface of the user.
However, most tissue marks for topical application has low delivery capacity and poor adherence on the skin.
Thus, there is a need for a mask for caring for keratin materials which has a relatively higher delivery capacity and good adherence on the keratin materials.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Thus, an object of the present invention is to provide a mask for caring for keratin materials which has a relatively higher delivery capacity and good adherence on the keratin materials.
Thus, according to a first aspect, the present invention provides a mask for caring for keratin materials, comprising:
A) a water insoluble substrate selected from gauze tissues, jellified tissues, and a combination thereof;
B) an aqueous composition impregnated into the substrate comprising:
a) a combination of hydrophilic thickeners comprising:
i) a homopolymer of acrylic acid or methacrylic acid or ethacrylic acid or an ester thereof; and

Water insoluble substrate
According to the first aspect, the mask according to the present invention comprises a water insoluble substrate selected from gauze tissues, jellified tissues, and a combination thereof.
For the purpose of the invention, the term “water insoluble” means that the substrate is not dissolvable in water and it doesn't break apart upon immersion in water.
As gauze tissues suitable for the present invention, mention can be made of gauze tissues consisting of natural fibers such as cellulose fibers, for example cotton, pulp, and bamboo, semi-natural fibers such as viscose rayon fibers and synthetic fibers such as polyester fibers, polyethylene terephthalate fibers, polyethylene fibers, and polypropylene fibers. Two or more selected from the above fibers may be used in combination.
As jellified tissues suitable for the present invention, mention can be made of alginate tissues consisting of water insoluble alginate fibers.
The term "alginate" in particular means a salt of alginic acid. Alginic acid, a natural substance obtained from brown algae or from certain bacteria, is a polyuronic acid composed of two uronic acids linked together via 1, 4-glycoside bonds: β-D-mannuronic acid (M) and α-L-glucuronic acid (G) .
Suitable water insoluble alginates have a weight-average molecular weight of about 20,000 Daltons to about 500,000 Daltons. The weight-average molecular weight is calculated by first determining the intrinsic viscosity, then using the Mark-Houwink Sakurada Equation, as in Martinsen, et al, "Comparison of Different Methods for Determination of Molecular Weights and Molecular Weight Distribution of Alginates" (Carbohydr. Polym., 15, 171-193, 1991) .
The alginate can be selected from calcium alginate, strontium alginate, zinc alginate, copper alginate, manganese alginate, or a mixture thereof, preferably calcium alginate or copper alginate, in particular calcium alginate.
Calcium alginate fiber are specifically found in the fronds and stems of seaweeds of the class Phaeophyceae, examples of which are Fucus vesiculosus, Fucus spiralis, Ascophyllum nodosum, Macrocystis pyrifera, Alaria esculenta, Eclonia maxima, Lessonia nigrescens, Lessonia trabeculata, Laminaria japonica, Durvillea antarctica, Laminaria hyperborea, Laminaria longicruris, Laminaria digitata, Laminaria saccharina, Laminaria cloustoni, and Saragassum sp.
The substrate can have a wide variety of shapes, depending on the desired use and characteristic of the mask.
The substrate is typically designed to fit the area of the skin to which topical application is desired. For example, when the mask is applied to the lips, the substrate is designed to correspond to the shape of the lips.
Advantageously, the water insoluble substrate has a basis weight ranging from 40 g/m 2 to 60 g/m 2.
Advantageously, the fiber from which the water insoluble substrate is made of has a fineness ranging from 1.3 dtex to 2.2 dtex.
Advantageously, the substrate has a thickness ranging from 0.2 mm to 2 mm.
It was found that a water insoluble substrate selected from a gauze tissue, a jellified tissue (e.g. alginate tissue) , and a combination thereof, can have better adherence. Meanwhile, a water insoluble substrate made of a gauze tissue can release more liquid on the keratin materials and a substrate made of a jellified tissue can form double-jellification after mixed with the aqueous composition, which brings good adherence and a higher delivery capacity.
As commercial examples of water insoluble substrates, mention can be made of, for example, the product sold under the tradename MBT-S60 by HANGZHOU XIEYE MICROFIBER FABRICS CO., LTD, the composition thereof comprises Lyocell fiber and cotton gauze, and the product sold under the tradename M762R-40CN by Sanjiang Enterprise, the composition thereof comprises 20 wt. %alginate fiber and 80 wt. % Tencel.

Table 3
Figure PCTCN2021114513-appb-000019
1) . Introduce phase A
Water of phase A was added into a vessel, then all other components of phase A were added into the vessel, followed by heating up to 65℃ while mixing,
2) . Introduce phase B
Components of phase B were added into the vessel, mixing was remained till the mixture became uniform.
3) . Introduce phase C
The mixture was diluted with water of phase C.
4) . Introduce D and E.
Mixing was remained till the mixture became uniform, then the mixture was cooled down, and components of phase D were added when the temperature was below 40℃, mixing was remained till the mixture became uniform, then the mixture was cooled down to 30℃, then components of phase E were added, the mixing was remained till the mixture became uniform, to obtain the composition.
A mask was prepared by filling the substrate with the composition of invention example 1, wherein the weight ratio of the substrate used and the composition is 1∶15.
Evaluation:
Viscosity
The viscosity of each composition obtained was measured at 25℃, using a Rheomat 100 Plus viscometer equipped with a spindle M3, the measurement being performed after 10 minutes of rotation of the spindle in the composition (after which time stabilization of the viscosity and of the spin speed of the spindle are observed) , at a shear rate of 200 rpm. The results were listed in Table 4.
Table 4
Properties IE. 1 CE. 1 CE. 2
Viscosity (uD) 26 20 45
It was observed by a microscope that there is a jelly texture formed in the composition of invention example 1, while there is no jelly texture formed in compositions of comparative examples 1 and 2.
Adherence
Adherence indicates the ability of a tissue to resist to sliding. Adherence can be characterized by a static friction. The bigger the static friction is, the better the adherence is.
The characterization can be carried out with a Friction-Peel Tester as follows:
- unfold a wet mask to be tested from a sachet, place it between two thin plastic films;
- cut the mask into samples with a size of 2cm *7cm;
- place the test sample on a bio-skin with one short side clamped for about 1 cm and without any plastic film during installing the sample, avoid attaching on it directly to remove any composition therein;
- give a pressure of 50g on the test sample with a sled wrapped with a thin plastic film for about 10s, then remove it gently before the clamp start moving. The test continues until the test sample has moved forward for 130mm.
- repeat the same test with other two samples, ensuring the position of the sample on the bio-skin is different.
It will be desired if the friction is not less than 0.1N.
The friction values tested were averaged and the results were summarized in Table 5.
Table 5
Properties IE. 1
Staticfriction (N) 0.274
It can be seen that the mask of invention composition 1 has good adherence.
Delivery Capacity and Evaporation Rate
The mask of invention example 1 and a commercial available lip mask (SEPHORA SHEA LIP MASK available from the company SEPHORA (Shanghai) Cosmetic Co. Ltd. ) were evaluated in terms of delivery capacity and evaporate rate.
Delivery capacity is used to indicate the amount of the cosmetic composition of the mask deposited on the skin and penetrated to the skin, which was evaluated as follows:
1. prepare one piece of dry nonwoven tissue, and weight it as W wipes-T0;
2. apply the mask to be tested on a skin FX mannequin for 20 minutes and then remove it;
3. use the weighed dry nonwoven tissue to wipe the residual composition on the mannequin, and weighed the tissue for W wipes-T20.
The delivery capacity was calculated according to the following equation:
Delivery capacity (mg/cm 2) = (W wipes-T20min -W wipes-T0) /A mask
A mask= the area of the mask tested
W wipes = the weight of the tissue
The results of delivery capacity were summarized in Table 6.
Table 6
Figure PCTCN2021114513-appb-000020
It can be seen that the mask of invention example 1 has higher delivery capacity as compared with the commercial available lip mask.
The evaporation rate can be tested as follows:
1. prepare a mask sample of 2.00-2.20 g;
2. put the mask sample in a moisturizer analyser and set up the programming into “Low temperature” mode (40 ℃) ;
3. record the evaporation rate after the test was continued for 15 minutes.
The results of evaporation rate were summarized in Table 7.
Table 7
Figure PCTCN2021114513-appb-000021
Lower evaporation rate means the substrate can hold more active ingredients and increase delivery capacity to the skin.
It can be seen that the mask of invention example 1 can hold more active and has higher delivery capacity as compared with the commercial available lip mask.
