## Background
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
This application claims priority to Provisional Patent Application No. 61/354,484, filed in the United States on Jun. 14, 2010, the entire contents of which is incorporated herein by reference.


The invention relates to a cooling mixture comprising or consisting of 5-methyl-2-(propane-2-yl)cyclohexyl-N-ethyloxamate and one, two, three or more certain polyols. It further relates to a cosmetic composition comprising such a cooling mixture or a sanitary article comprising such a cooling mixture. Moreover, the invention relates to the use of certain polyols for enhancing the cooling effect of 5-methyl-2-(propane-2-yl)cyclohexyl-N-ethyloxamate on the skin or a mucous membrane, a method for generating an enhanced cooling effect of 5-methyl-2-(propane-2-yl)cyclohexyl-N-ethyloxamate on the skin or a mucous membrane as well as a method for producing a corresponding cooling mixture.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Cooling substances are used in the area of personal care for application onto the skin, hair and mucous membranes. Such applications include lotions and creams, skin cleansers, shampoos, hair conditioners, cleaning tissues, sanitary towels, tampons, nappies as well as other cosmetic products such as lipsticks or Eau de Toilette. A multiplicity of cooling substances of natural and synthetic origin has been described. The most well known substance out of these is menthol, in particular I-menthol, which was initially found in peppermint oil. Menthol binds to the TRPM8 (Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin 8) receptor also known under the designation of CMR (Cold Menthol Receptor 1). This receptor belongs to the family of TRPs (Transient Receptor Potential Ion Channels) and is expressed in specific peripheral neurons, where it forms a pore consisting of four protein monomers. Low temperatures as well as the binding of cooling substances to the channel will open the latter and will thus allow calcium and sodium ions to enter through the membrane. This flow of ions results in a depolarization of the membrane and a generation of an action potential which will be converted in the brain into a sensation of cold (Clapham D E et al 2005, Pharmacological reviews, 57 (4), 427-450; Peier A M et al 2005, Cell, 108 (5), 705-15). Several menthol derivatives have been described, which induced the opening of TRPM8 (British Patent 1971 #1315761 Watson H. R., J. Soc. Cosmet. Chem. 29, 1978, 185-200; Furrer S. M., Chem. Percept. 1, 2008, 119-126), however, there are also structures which have a cooling effect and are not based on menthol, such as Icilin (Wei E. T., J. Pharm. Pharmacol. 35, 1983, 110-112; WO 2004/026840), WS-23 or substances such as mentioned in WO 2007/019719.
Activators of TRPM8 may have an repellent effect on insects (WO 2002/015692, WO 2004/000023, US 2004/0028714) and may also have calming properties during the treatment of inflammation-induced pain and hyperalgesia as well as a hyperactive bladder (Beck B. Cell Calcium, 41, 2007, 285-294; Levine J. D. Biochim. Biophys. Acta. Mol. Basis. Dis. 1772, 2007, 989-1003; Mukerji G., BMC Urology 6, 2006, 6; US 2003/0207904; US 2005/6893626, Lashinger E S. Am. J. Physiol. Renal Physiol. 295, 2008, 303-810).
A number of studies could further show that some activators of TRPM8 have a growth inhibiting effect on tumors (Slominski A., Am. J. Physiol. 295, 2008, 293-295; Yamamura H, Am. J. Physiol. Cell Physiol. 295, 2008, 296-301).
Due to their close structural relationship to menthol, many cooling substances have an odor similar to that of mint and are therefore not suitable for topical application. In addition, a high concentration of more than 3% has to be used in many physiological cooling substances, in order to induce a tangible cooling effect. High concentrations of cooling substances may cause undesired side effects such as stinging and burning on the skin (Wasner G., Brain, 2004, 127, 1159-1171; Green B G, Behav Brain Res, 2007, 176, 284-291).
In the light of this background it is the object of the present invention to provide a combination of active substances which enables the use of a suitable active cooling substance for topical applications at a reduced concentration.
This object is achieved by means of a cooling mixture comprising or consisting of:

    (a) 5-methyl-2-(propane-2-yl)cyclohexyl-N-ethyloxamate (Formula I)






and

    (b) one, two, three or more polyols selected from group A consisting of branched or unbranched alkanediols and branched or unbranched alkanetriols each having 3-12 carbon atoms.


5-Methyl-2-(propane-2-yl)cyclohexyl-N-ethyloxamate is known from EP 2 033 688 A2 as an active cooling substance. Surprisingly, the inventors have now been able to show that the combination of these compounds with branched or unbranched alkanedioles or branched or unbranched alkanetrioles each having 3 to 12 carbon atoms results in an enhancement of the cooling effect in the case of a topical application. This is not an additive effect since the corresponding diols and triols do not possess a cooling effect.
A cooling mixture in terms of the present invention comprises herein a sufficient amount of 5-methyl-2-(propane-2-yl)cyclohexyl-N-ethyloxamate, so that a cooling effect will be perceived in the case of a topical application. Preferably, a corresponding cooling mixture comprises a sufficient amount of 5-methyl-2-(propane-2-yl)cyclohexyl-N-ethyloxamate, so that a cooling effect would be perceived in the case of a topical application even if the concentration of all of the other active cooling substances was 0. Of course it is possible within the scope of the invention that the cooling mixture comprises an amount of 5-methyl-2-(propane-2-yl)cyclohexyl-N-ethyloxamate which is so low that this may be perceived only as a result of an enhancement by the corresponding polyols.
In case of doubt, the perceptibility of the cooling effect is to be determined by means of a panel test wherein the corresponding mixture is applied onto the skin of at least 10 test persons. If in the course of this, preferably in combination with a blind test, 90% of the test persons confirm a cooling effect, then this will preferably correspond to the criteria for the presence of a corresponding effect. Topical applications in terms of the present text are applications where the corresponding active substance or the combination of active substances is brought into contact with the skin or with a mucous membrane.
Preferred is a cooling mixture according to the invention, wherein at least part of the 5-methyl-2-(propane-2-yl)cyclohexyl-N-ethyloxamate is present in the (1R,2S,5R) configuration (formula II):




The 1R,2S,5R isomer of 5-methyl-2-(propane-2-yl)cyclohexyl-N-ethyloxamate is particularly accessible for an enhancement of the cooling effect and may in addition by synthesized in an economical manner via L-menthol as a starting compound.
Correspondingly, a cooling mixture according to the invention is preferred, wherein the proportion of 5-methyl-2-(propan-2-yl)cyclohexyl-N-ethyloxamate present in the (1R,2S,5R) configuration in relation to the overall proportion of 5-methyl-2-(propane-2-yl)cyclohexyl-N-ethyloxamate is 45%, preferably 70% and particularly probably 97%.
According to the invention, as an alternative or in addition to the preferred embodiments, a cooling mixture according to the invention is preferred, wherein the ratio between the amount of substance of 5-methyl-2-(propane-2-yl)cyclohexyl-N-ethyloxamate and the amount of substance of the polyol or of the polyols of group A taken together is 1:20 to 1:0.1, preferably 1:10 to 1:1:0.5 [sic] and particularly preferably 1:5 to 1:1.
In terms of the invention it is further preferred if in the cooling mixture according to the invention, a or the polyol or several or all of the polyols of group A is or are selected from the group consisting of branched or unbranched alkanediols having 3 to 12 carbon atoms.
It is further preferred for the cooling mixture according to the invention, if in a or the alkanepolyol of group A or in several or all of the alkanepolyols of group A both or at least two of the hydroxyl groups are positioned vicinal to one another.
In addition, a cooling mixture according to the invention is preferred wherein exclusively one or more branched or unbranched 1,2-alkanediols having 5 to 12 carbon atoms are used as component (b).
The last-mentioned preferred variants of the cooling mixture each result, either alone or in a combination of the preferred features, in an improved enhancing effect for the actual active cooling substance 5-methyl-2-(propane-2-yl)cyclohexyl-N-ethyloxamate. Preferred diols or triols for the cooling mixture as component (b) [sic] part of component (b) are 1,2-pentanediol, 1,2-hexanediol, 1,2-heptanediol, 1,2-octanediol, 1,2-nonanediol, 1,2-decanediol, 1,2-dodecanediol and glycerol.
What is particularly preferred in this context is that component (b) in the cooling mixture comprises or consists of n-1,2-pentanediol.
Provided the cooling mixture according to the invention comprises n-1,2-pentanediol, it is preferred if the ratio between the amount of substance of 5-methyl-2-(propane-2-yl)cyclohexy-N-ethyloxamate and the amount of substance of n-1,2-pentanediol is 1:20 to 1:0.1, preferably 1:10 to 1:0.5 and particularly preferably 1:5 to 1:1.
In the case of this quantity ratio of substances, n-1,2-pentanediol (also as pentylene glycol) will develop its enhancing effect especially well. Moreover, corresponding ratios are to be regarded as especially economical with regard to their cost-benefit factor.
Further preferred is a cooling mixture according to the invention, which as a further component comprises a compound having an antagonistic effect on the heat receptors of the skin or of mucous membranes and thus reduces the sensation of heat. Trans-4-tert.-butylcyclohexanol is preferably used as such a compound.
Preferably, these compounds, and in particular trans-4-tert.-butylcyclohexanol, are used in a quantity ratio of substances relative to the sum of diols and triols of 100:1 to 1:1000, more preferably of 10:1 to 1:100 and particularly preferably of 1:1 to 1:10.
By adding corresponding heat receptor antagonists it is possible to enhance the perceived cooling effect mediated via cooling receptors subjectively even further by reducing the sensitivity of the heat receptors.
Part of the invention is also a cosmetic composition comprising a cooling mixture according to the invention.
Also part of the invention is a sanitary article comprising a cooling mixture according to the invention.
Preferred cosmetic compositions are hair care products and skin care products, preferred sanitary articles are sanitary towels, tampons and nappies, in particular baby nappies.

Further, a composition according to the invention may be present as an O/W emulsion. Such an emulsion usually contains an oil phase, emulsifiers which stabilize the oil phase in the water phase, and an aqueous phase which is usually present in a thickened condition. As emulsifiers, O/W emulsifiers such as polyglycerin ester, sorbitan ester or partially esterified glycerides are considered.
According to a further preferred embodiment, the compositions according to the invention may be a shower gel, a shampoo formulation or a bath preparation.
Such formulations contain at least one cooling mixture according to the invention as well as usually anionic surfactants as primary surfactants and amphoteric and/or non-ionic surfactants as co-surfactants. Further suitable active substances and/or auxiliary agents are generally selected from lipids, perfume oils, dyestuffs, organic acids, preservatives and antioxidants as well as from thickeners/gel formers, skin conditioners and moisture retention agents.
In the wash, shower and bath compositions according to the invention, all of the anionic, neutral, amphoteric or cationic surfactants that are usually used in body cleansing agents may be used.
Suitable anionic surfactants are for example alkyl sulfates, alkyl ether sulfates, alkyl sulfonates, alkyl aryl sulfonates, alkyl succinates, alkyl sulfosuccinates, N-alkoyl sarcosinates, acyl taurates, acyl isothionates, alkyl phosphates, alkyl ether phosphates, alkyl ether carboxylates, alpha-olefin sulfonates, in particular alkaline and earth alkaline metal salts, e.g. sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium as well as ammonium and triethanolamine salts. The alkyl ether sulfates, alkyl ether phosphates and alkyl ether carboxylates may contain 1 to 10 ethylene oxide or propylene oxide units, preferably 1 to 3 ethylene oxide units in a molecule.
These include e.g. sodium lauryl sulfate, ammonium lauryl sulfate, sodium lauryl ether sulfate, ammonium lauryl ether sulfate, sodium lauryl sarcosinate, sodium oleyl succinate, ammonium lauryl sulfosuccinate, sodium dodecyl benzol sulfonate, triethanolamine dodecyl benzol sulfonate.

For example, coco dimethyl sulfopropyl betaine, lauryl betaine, cocamido propyl betaine or sodium cocoamphopropionate may be used.
As non-ionic surfactants for example the reaction products of aliphatic alcohols or alkyl phenols having 6 to 20 C atoms in the alkyl chain, which may be linear or branched, with ethylene oxide and/or propylene oxide are suitable. The amount of alkylene oxide is approx. 6 to 60 moles per mole of alcohol. Further, alkyl amine oxides, mono- or dialkyl alkanolamides, fatty acid esters of polyethylene glykolen, ethoxylated fatty acid amides, alkyl polyglycosides or sorbitan ether ester are suitable.
Moreover, the wash, shower and bath compositions according to the invention may contain usual cationic surfactants such as for example quaternary ammonium compounds, for example cetyl trimethyl ammonium chloride.
Further, the shower gel/shampoo formulations may contain a thickener such as e.g. common salt, PEG-55, propylene glycol oleate, PEG-120 methyl lucose ioleate and others as well as preservatives, further active substances and auxiliary agents and water.
Cosmetic compositions according to the invention in terms of a skin care product may also be sun protection compositions. It will be clear to a person skilled in the art that sun protection compositions may also be use for purposes other than skin care. In terms of the present application, however, sun protection compositions are understood to be skin care products (in the broadest possible sense). Sun protection compositions according to the invention comprise a cooling mixture according to the invention.
Advantageously, these compositions contain at least one UVA filter and/or at least one UVB filter and/or at least one anorganic pigment. The composition may here be present in different forms, such as are usually used for example for sun protection compositions. Thus, they may form for example a solution, an emulsion of the water-in-oil (W/O) or of the oil-in-water (O/W) type, or a multiple emulsion, for example of the water-in-oil-in-water (W/O/W) type, a gel, a hdrodispersion, a solid stick or an aerosol.
The sun protection compositions according to the invention may particularly advantageously be combined with substances which absorb or reflect UV radiation, wherein the overall amount of the filter substances is 0.01% by wt. to 40% by wt., preferably 0.1% to 10% by wt., in particular 1.0 to 5.0% by wt. in relation to the overall weight of the compositions, in order to provide cosmetic compositions which protect the hair or the skin from ultraviolet radiation. Advantageously, these compositions contain at least one UVA filter and/or at least one UVB filter and/or at least one anorganic pigment, so that a sun protection factor of at least 2 (preferably 5) is achieved. These compositions according to the invention may be present here in different forms as are customarily used for example for sun protection compositions. Thus, they may constitute for example a solution, an emulsion of the water-in-oil (W/O) type or of the oil-in-water (O/W) type or a multiple emulsion, for example of the water-in-oil-in-water (W/O/W) type, a gel, a hydrodispersion, a solid stick or an aerosol.

Cooling Plasters as Skin Care Products
In the present invention, plasters which develop a cooling effect on the skin or on mucous membranes, are also regarded as skin care products. Of course it will be obvious to a person skilled in the art that corresponding plasters may also be used for purposes other than skin care. This is explicitly included in the scope of the invention.
Plasters according to the invention used as skin care products comprise a cooling mixture according to the invention. They may be designed in any desired way, for example according to the matrix system, the membrane system or the non-woven system (Drug Dev. Ind. Pharm. 14 (1988), 183-209; Drug Dev. Ind. Pharm. 13 (1987), 589-651; Drugs of Today 23 (1987), 625-646).
In its simplest form, the matrix system consists of 3 parts: the flexible backing film, the adhesive matrix containing the cooling mixture according to the invention and a peel-off film. If a non-adhesive matrix is used, an edge region of the backing film must be provided with an adhesive, in order to ensure adhesion to the skin.
By contrast, a membrane system comprises at least 5 parts: a flexible backing film, a reservoir with a dissolved or suspended cooling mixture according to the invention, a membrane for controlling the release of the active substance, an adhesive layer deposited on the membrane and a peel-off film.
In the non-woven system, the layer comprising the cooling mixture according to the invention consists of an absorbent non-woven fabric or a porous polymer which is impregnated with an active substance solution or suspension. This layer, which is firmly connected to the backing film, is covered with a peel-off film. The edge of the backing film is provided with an adhesive for application onto the skin.
In principle, all of the cooling mixtures according to the invention may be formulated in this way.
The auxiliary agents to be used are the ones that are customary for the production of plasters. Apart from the adhesive agent, as a rule a polymer having a glass temperature between −70 and −10, in particular −55 and −25° C., as well as a carrier film which is coated with this adhesive agent, and the active substance, usually emulsifiers, thickeners as well as materials for controlling the release of the active substance as well as other auxiliary agents are added.
The adhesive polymers having the above-mentioned low glass temperatures are known for example from U.S. Pat. Nos. 2,973,282 and 3,307,544. The self-adhesive strips and films should adhere to the human skin merely on contact, however, the cohesion of the adhesive layer and the adhesion thereof on the carrier film should be greater than the adhesion on the skin, so that they may be peeled off as far as possible without leaving any residues. These are as a rule copolymerisates on the basis of acrylic and methacrylic acid esters of alcohols having 2 to 12, in particular 4 to 8 carbon atoms which may have a large number of other comonomers polymerized therein, for example (meth)acrylic acid, (meth)acrylic nitrile, (meth)acrylic amide, N-tert.-butyl-(meth-)acrylic amide, vinyl esters such as vinyl acetate, propionate or butyrate, other vinyl compounds such as styrene, further butadiene. Particular emphasis is given here to butyl acrylate and 2-ethyl hexyl acrylate. The polymers may be crosslinked by adding minor amounts of comonomers having 2 or more copolymerizable double bonds, i.e. for example of diacrylates such as butane diol diacrylate, or divinyl compounds such as divinyl benzene, or by adding other crosslinkers, for example melamine formaldehyde resins. As sticky polymers, also polyisobutylenes and polyvinyl ether with different molecular masses may be used.
The particle sizes of the dispersions should be between 50 and 500 nm, in particular between 50 and 200 nm. The particle size and the degree of crosslinking may be adjusted in a known manner as a function of the polymerization conditions and the comonomers. Smaller particle sizes and a higher degree of crosslinking may result in an increase of the release of active substance.
Matrix plasters may be produced in the usual manner by dissolving or finely dispersing the active substance in a suitable polymer solution and subsequently extracting this self-adhesive mass containing the active substance into a film by using roller or doctor blade deposition methods. In some cases it may be expedient to dissolve or extremely finely disperse the active substance prior to adding it to the polymer solution in an organic solvent such as for example ethanol or acetone. In this way, an improved distribution of the active substance in the polymer may be achieved.
The plasters may also be produced in accordance with German patent application no P 38 07 283.1 by working in the cooling mixture in a finely pulverized form, e.g. bound to a carrier (particle size lower than 200, in particular lower than 50 μm) in the aqueous latex dispersion or by dispersing or dissolving it in an aqueous emulsifier solution and admixing this mixture to the aqueous latex dispersion at a temperature of 10 to 80, in particular of 30 to 70° C.
Expediently, the cooling mixture according to the invention is provided, the emulsifier and water are added and then mixed with the polymer dispersion. The cooling mixture thus obtained as a dispersion is, if required, provided with further auxiliary agents and is, as mentioned, extracted in a manner per se known into a film on a backing film and is dried. The drying temperature may here be between room temperature and 100° C., with an optimum between the targeted rapid drying and ensuring that any blistering in the film and thermal loading of the active ingredient are avoided generally being in the order of 35 to 45° C.
This process has the significant advantage that the use of organic solvents is avoided. However, in principle also any other customary production methods for matrix plasters may be considered.
The resulting films have a thickness of 10 to 800, preferably 50 to 300 μm. Film production may be carried out in a continuous or a batchwise process. The deposition process may be repeated several times, until the film has reached the desired thickness. The sticky polymer layer contains components a) and b) of the cooling mixture according to the invention in an accumulated concentration in the range of 1 to 40, in particular 5 to 25% by wt. in relation to the overall mass of the sticky polymer layer. The same concentration also applies to the reservoir liquid in the case of the membrane system (in relation to the overall mass of the reservoir liquid) and for the cooling mixture solution or dispersion used to impregnate the non-woven fabric or the porous polymer in the case of the non-woven system (in relation to the overall mass of the solution).
As emulsifiers both for the cooling mixture and also the polymers, the surfactants customarily used for this are used, such as the sodium salt of longer-chained fatty acids and the sulfuric acid semi-ester of a (if required oxyethylated) fatty alcohol as examples of anionic surfactants as well as polyethoxylated alkyl phenols and longer-chained fatty alcohols (e.g. hexadecan-(1)-ol) and glycerine partial fatty acid esters as examples of non-ionic surfactants and co-emulsifiers.
The desired viscosity of the mass ready to be extracted may be adjusted for example using polyacrylic acids or cellulose derivatives.
As additional crosslinkers which improve cohesion and thus the adhesive properties of the films, for example melamine formaldehyde resins may be used.
In order to enhance the release of the active substance, swelling agents such as polyvinyl pyrrolidone, cellulose derivatives or polyacrylates may be used, since the film can absorb more water, so that the diffusion resistance is reduced. The release of the active substances may be further improved by adding hydrophilic plasticizers such glycerine, 1,2-propanediol of the polyethylene glycols and lipophilic plasticizers such as triacetine, dibutyl phthalate or isopropyl myristate.
Matrix plasters usually provide a first order release of active substance. By using fillers which adsorb the active substance, such as aerosil, microcrystalline cellulose or lactose, an approximately zero order release will result.
The backing film which is dried onto the self-adhesive mass containing the cooling mixture, is preferably essentially impermeable both to the active substance and to the water vapor. It may consist for example of an aluminum-plastic composite film, a metalized plastic film, a plastic film which, towards the side of the active substance, is provided with a barrier layer for example of polyvinylidene chloride, or of a simple plastic film, for example a polyester film.
The plasters according to the invention, which are designed according to the membrane system, are also manufactured in the usual manner (e.g. EP 0 186 071A2, U.S. Pat. No. 4,262,003).
The production of the plasters designed according to the non-woven system is carried out by impregnating non-woven fabrics or porous polymers attached to the backing film with a solution or a dispersion of the cooling mixture in a hydrophilic or lipophilic solvent or solvent mix. Subsequently, the impermeable peel-off film is deposited.
Combination of Active Substances
If required, the cooling mixtures according to the invention may be combined with further known active substances, in particular with those that have a comparable effect, which means they may also comprise these active substances. For example, they may be combined with known cooling compounds such as for example menthol, menthone, N-ethyl-p-menthane carboxamide (WS-3, also referred to as menthane-3-carboxylic acid-N-ethyl amide), N-2,3-trimethyl-2-isopropyl butane amide (WS-23), menthyl lactate (Frescolat® ML), menthone glycerine acetal (Frescolat® MGA), mono-menthyl succinate (Physcool®), mono-menthyl glutarate, O-menthyl-glycerine, menthyl-N,N-dimethyl succinamate, N-(4-cyano methyl phenyl)-p-menthane carboxamide N-(2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl)-3-p-menthane carboxamide.

Anti-Irritants
Cosmetic compositions according to the invention may also contain anti-inflammatory active substances and/or active substances that alleviate reddening and/or itching. Here, any of the anti-inflammatory active substance and/or any of the active substances for alleviating reddening and/or itching may be used that are suitable or customarily used for cosmetic and/or dermatological applications. Advantageously, steroidal anti-inflammatory active substances of the corticosteroide type are used as anti-inflammatory active substances or as active substances for alleviating reddening and/or itching, such as hydrocortisone, hydrocortisone derivatives such as hydrocortisone-17-butyrat, dexamethasone, dexamethasone phosphate, methylprednisolone or cortisone, and this list may be extended by adding further steroidal anti-inflammatory agents. Also non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents may be used. Examples to be mentioned here include oxicams such as Piroxicam or Tenoxicam; salicylates such as Aspirin, Disalcid, Solprin or Fendosal; acetic acid derivatives such as Diclofenac, Fenclofenac, Indomethacin, Sulindac, Tolmetin or Clindanac; fenamates such as Mefenamic, Meclofenamic, Flufenamic or Niflumic; propionic acid derivatives such as Ibuprofen, Naproxen, Benoxaprofen, or pyrazols such as Phenylbutazon, Oxyphenylbutazon, Febrazon or Azapropazon. Alternatively, natural anti-inflammatory substances or substances for alleviating reddening and/or itching may be used. What can be used are plant extracts, special highly effective plant extract fractions as well as active substances of high purity isolated from plant extracts. Particularly preferred are extracts, fractions and active substances from camomile, Aloe vera, Commiphora species, Rubia species, willows, willow herbs, oats, Calendula, arnica, amber, honeysuckle, rosemary, melissa, ginger, Passiflora incarnata, Hamamelis, Pueraria, Dianthus or Echinacea as well as pure substances such as Bisabolol, Apigenin, Apigenin-7-glucosid, rosemarinic acid, boswellic acid, phytosterols, glycyrrhizic acid, Glabridin, Licochalkon A, gingerols and anthranilic acid amides such as in particular avenanthramides or dianthramides. The compositions according to the invention may also contain mixtures of two or more anti-inflammatory active substances.
The amount of anti-irritants (one or more compounds) in the compositions is preferably 0.0001 to 20% by wt., particularly preferably 0.0001-10% by wt., in particular 0.001-5% by wt., in relation to the overall weight of the composition.
Antiperspirants
In addition, also antiperspirant active substances (antiperspirants) may be used particularly advantageously with the compositions according to the invention. As antiperspirant active substances, predominantly aluminum salts such as aluminum chloride, aluminum chlorhydrate, nitrate, sulfate, acetate etc. are used. Moreover, however, also the use of zink, magnesium and zirconium compounds may be advantageous. For the application in cosmetic and dermatological antiperspirants, aluminum salts and—to a somewhat lower degree—aluminum/zirconium salt combinations have essentially proven successful. What is worth mentioning apart from that are the partially neutralized and thus more skin-compatible, although not quite so effective aluminum hydroxychlorides. Apart from aluminum salts, also other substances may be considered, such as for example a) protein precipitating substances such as formaldehyde, glutaraldehyde, natural and synthetic tannins as well as trichloroacetic acid which cause a superficial closure of the perspiratory glands, b) local anasthetics (e.g. diluted solutions of e.g. Lidokain, Prilokain or mixtures of such substances), which eliminate the sympathetic supply of the perspiratory glands by blocking the peripheral nerve tracts, c) zeoliths of type X, A or Y, which besides reducing sweat secretion also have the function of adsorbing bad odors, and d) botulinus toxin (toxin of the bacteria Chlostridium botulinum) which is also used for the treatment of hyperhidrosis, an abnormally increased secretion of sweat, and the effect of which is based on an irreversible blockage of the release of the transmitter substance acetylchonine which is relevant for the secretion of sweat. Apart from that, also peptidic botulinus toxin analogs may be used in the compositions according to the invention.

Application Example
In-Vivo Evaluation of a Cosmetic Composition According to the Invention
The aim of the human in vivo studies was to test the effect of the cooling mixture according to the invention in O/W formulations with regard to their cooling intensity. What was to be examined here was whether the cooling effect/cooling intensity of 5-methyl-2-(propane-2-yl)cyclohexyl-N-ethyloxamate will be enhanced in the combination of active substances according to the invention. Each individual test was carried out using 20 panellists under standardized conditions in a test institute. To this end, each test person spread two defined quantities of cream samples onto both cheeks at the same time. This half-side test allows a direct comparison of two samples, as a result of which the reproducibility of the results is markedly enhanced by comparison to a test wherein the test person has to keep cooling intensities in mind. Upon application of the samples, the test persons evaluated the cooling intensities on a scale of 1-10 within a period of 30 minutes (1=weak; 10=strong). The studies were carried out as double blind studies, therefore the test institute received the formulations in an encoded form. In order to ensure test standardization, the following conditions were selected:

    
    
        Controlled ventilation and temperature conditions in the room of the test persons
        Use of a standardized test protocol
        Detailed explanation of the test protocol
        Samples were given to the test persons in uniform, clear containers
        Samples were labeled with a three-digit code
        A sample amount of 0.3 g of cream was applied onto each cheek
        Samples were covered with a lid in order to avoid drying out of the samples
        Test persons were instructed not to use any makeup on the day of the test and not to use any cosmetic products at least two hours before the test
        The test persons evaluated the cooling effect of the two products on a scale of 1-10 (1=weak, 10=strong) at 32 identical points in time
    
    


The data obtained during the studies was examined with regard to any significant differences between the two samples. To this end, the data was initially examined for standard normal distribution. Provided the data met the criteria of a standard normal distribution, a pairwise t test was carried out. Since the perception of the degree of coolness is different for each test person and the half-side test provides dependent data, the pairwise t test is to be used. Where no normal distribution of the values was found, significance was determined via a non-parametric Wilcoxon. The formulations had the following compositions:

Information Regarding Preparation:

Phases A and C are heated separately to approx. 80° C. Phase B is dispersed in phase A.
Phase C is added to phase AB and is subsequently emulsified under an Ultra Turrax Stirrer (3 min). Subsequently, phase D is added and neutralized. The emulsion is cold-stirred using a blade mixer, with the mixing rate being reduced as the temperature decreases.
Phase E is added at 45-50° C.



BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
FIG. 1 shows a marked cooling effect of (1R,2S,5R)-5-methyl-2-(propane-2-yl)cyclohexyl N ethyl oxamate (MEO). The cooling effect is noticeable immediately upon application of the formulation. Moreover, the duration of the cooling effect, which is more than 30 minutes, is strongly pronounced.
FIG. 2 shows the effect of a cooling mixture according to the invention (mixture A from Table 1), comprising (1R,2S,5R)-5-methyl-2-(propane-2-yl)cyclohexyl_N-ethyloxamate and n-1,2-pentanediol, compared to a mixture of an identical composition, wherein the n-1,2-pentanediol was replaced with water (mixture B from Table 1). It shows that the cooling effect of the cooling mixture according to the invention, which contains pentanediol, is evaluated as being stronger throughout. After two minutes or five minutes, the increase in cooling intensity by 1,2-pentanediol is also mathematically significant. It has to be assumed that with a larger panel also further significant measurements may be generated. A corresponding increase in the effect of MEO as well as other cooling substances may also be generated by means of other diols and triols, which according to the invention may be part of group (b) of the cooling mixture according to the invention.



FIG. 1 is in particular used to show that MEO already has a cooling effect by itself, whereas FIG. 2 provides evidence for an increase of this cooling effect by the diol to be used according to the invention. Because of the measuring method (cheek tests with only two comparative values, respectively) two separate test series were required, which are shown up in the two separate figures.

In all of the formulation examples, the cooling effect as perceived by the test persons was enhanced in relation to comparable formulations which did not contain any C3-C12 alkanediols and alkanetriols. Provided the corresponding formulations also contained trans-4-tert. butylcyclohexanol, the cooling effect was even further enhanced compared to formulations without this compound.
It has further been shown in practice that comparable effects are achieved if in each of these above-mentioned formulations, the proportion of 1,2-pentanediol is replaced with 1,2-hexanediol at a ratio of 5:3.
The same applies to the replacement of 1,2-pentanediol with 1,2-octanediol.
This applies analogously also to the replacement of 1,2-pentanediol with 1,2-decanediol, however, the latter is only used in an amount of one fifth of the pentanediol.
According to the present invention it is additionally to be expected that as a result of a replacement of 5-methyl-2-(propane-2-yl)cyclohexyl-N-ethyloxamate with other oxamates or other cooling substances such as for example 5-methyl-2-(propane-2-yl)cyclohexyl-N-methyl oxamate, a similar effect may be achieved.
The breadth of formulations and the diversity of the examples shows that the enhancing cooling effect may be achieved over the entire range of cosmetics. As a result, a multiplicity of additional cooling mixtures and formulations will be accessible to a person skilled in the art.
