Title: Cosmetic compositions with sensorial and aesthetic benefits and having enhanced stability

Description:
FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
     The present invention is directed to cosmetic compositions and the methods of use and production. More specifically, the present invention is directed to cosmetic compositions in the form of water-in-oil emulsions. The oil phase is a silicone elastomer gel that comprises of an emulsifying elastomer and at least one non-swelling, non-emulsifying silicone elastomer. Additionally, this emulsion also includes at least one stabilizing spherical powder and an aqueous phase comprising of water and one or more additional components selected from actives and other additives, as well as optionally comprises an aerogel. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     Conventional cosmetic products, in particular for skin care, generally take the form of one or more actives that are solubilized, emulsified, or dispersed in a vehicle which is topically applied to the skin. A variety of emulsifiers may be used, and the form of the emulsion may be a water-in-oil or oil-in-water. 
     Emulsifying silicone elastomers are often selected because they provide aesthetic benefits to cosmetic formulations, particularly water-in-oil (W/O also referred to herein with respect to water-in-oil with silicone as W/Si) emulsions. Benefits include providing a smooth, non-greasy, silky feel when applied to the skin and other keratinous substrates such as hair and nails. Despite these benefits, W/Si emulsions generally suffer from poor stability. Indeed, in some examples, W/Si products are often thin, milky lotions that require shaking before application. It has been found that adding swelling non-emulsifying silicone gels to W/Si emulsions can thicken the oil phase and thus improve the stability of the emulsion, at least in the presence of certain actives. As an alternative to these swelling non-emulsifying silicone gels, non-swelling non-emulsifying silicone elastomer gels provide additional benefits and enhanced compatibility with some actives and conventional cosmetic additives; however, unlike the swelling non-emulsifying silicone gels, the non-swelling non-emulsifying silicone gels can unacceptably disrupt the stability of an emulsion, particularly under freeze/thaw (F/T) conditions. 
     In view of the various incompatibilities with swelling and non-swelling non-emulsifying silicone gels, there remains a need for formulations of W/Si emulsions that confer pleasant sensorial and aesthetic benefits to consumers and demonstrate stability. 
     BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     In an exemplary embodiment, cosmetic compositions in the form of stable, pleasant feeling W/O and W/Si emulsions are provided. The compositions include an aqueous phase and an oil phase. The oil phase includes at least one silicone elastomer gel comprising at least one emulsifying silicone elastomer, and at least one non-swelling non-emulsifying silicone elastomer.

     This disclosure describes exemplary embodiments in accordance with the general inventive concepts and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way. Indeed, the invention as described in the specification is broader than and unlimited by the exemplary embodiments set forth herein, and the terms used herein have their full ordinary meaning. 
    
    
     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION 
     Other than in the operating examples, or where otherwise indicated, all numbers expressing quantities of ingredients and/or reaction conditions are to be understood as being modified in all instances by the term “about,” meaning within 10% of the indicated number (e.g. “about 10%” means 9%-11% and “about 2%” means 1.8%-2.2%). 
     The articles “a” and “an,” as used herein, mean one or more when applied to any feature in embodiments of the present invention described in the specification and claims. The use of “a” and “an” does not limit the meaning to a single feature unless such a limit is specifically stated. The article “the” preceding singular or plural nouns or noun phrases denotes a particular specified feature or particular specified features and may have a singular or plural connotation depending upon the context in which it is used. The adjective “any” means one, some, or all indiscriminately of whatever quantity. 
     “At least one,” as used herein, means one or more and thus includes individual components as well as mixtures/combinations. 
     The term “comprising” (and its grammatical variations) as used herein is used in the inclusive sense of “having” or “including” and not in the exclusive sense of the terms “consisting only of,” “consisting essentially of” and “consisting of.” 
     “W/O emulsion,” and “W/Si emulsion” as used herein, includes a water phase dispersed in an oil phase, where the oil phase is a continuous phase and includes at least one Si emulsifier. 
     “Keratinous substrate,” as used herein, includes, but is not limited to, skin, hair, and nails. “Keratinous substrate” as used herein also includes “keratinous tissue” or “keratinous fibers,” which as defined herein, may be human keratinous fibers, and may be chosen from, for example, hair, such as hair on the human head, or hair comprising of eyelashes or hair on the body. 
     “Homogenous” means having the visual appearance of being substantially uniform throughout, i.e., visually appears as a single phase emulsion. 
     “Haze” refers to the diffusivity of a product, and its ability to re-direct rays of light passing through as determined in a conventional drawdown test. 
     “Transmission” relates the percentage of light that passes through drawdown without being absorbed or deflected by a product. 
     Applicants have surprisingly discovered that spherical polymer powders significantly enhance the stability of W/Si emulsions formed with non-swelling non-emulsifying silicone elastomer gels. This is particularly useful to meet the commercial requirements of shelf stability, especially through cycles of temperature variation, as evidenced in freeze/thaw (F/T) stability demonstration. This is a significant advancement in skincare to deliver stable cosmetics, for example stable SPF formulations, that provide a smooth, non-greasy, silky feel when applied to the skin and other keratinous tissues, and impart to the skin a soft focus or hazy effect and the appearance of an even complexion 
     An advantage of an embodiment of the present disclosure includes providing a W/O cosmetic composition for incorporating water soluble actives, particularly sunscreen actives. Another advantage of an embodiment of the present disclosure includes providing cosmetic compositions in a stable and aesthetically and sensorially pleasing form.

     Aerogels 
     According to some embodiments herein, the compositions and methods include use of an aerogel, for example, a silica aerogel such as silica silylate. 
     As used here, “silica aerogels” are porous materials obtained by replacing (by drying) the liquid component of a silica gel with air. Silica aerogels are generally synthesized via a sol-gel process in a liquid medium and then dried, usually by extraction with a supercritical fluid, such as, but not limited to, supercritical carbon dioxide (CO 2 ). This type of drying makes it possible to avoid shrinkage of the pores and of the material. The sol-gel process and the various drying processes are described in detail in Brinker, C. J., and Scherer, G. W., Sol-Gel Science: New York: Academic Press, 1990. 
     Hydrophobic silica aerogel particles have a specific surface area per unit of mass (SM) ranging from about 500 to about 1500 m 2 /g, or alternatively from about 600 to about 1200 m 2 /g, or alternatively from about 600 to about 800 m 2 /g, and a size expressed as the mean volume diameter (D[0.5]), ranging from about 1 to about 30 μm, or alternatively from about 5 to about 25 μm, or alternatively from about 5 to about 20 μm, or alternatively from about 5 to about 15 μm. The specific surface area per unit of mass may be determined via the BET (Brunauer-Emmett-Teller) nitrogen absorption method described in the  Journal of the American Chemical Society,  vol. 60, page 309, February 1938, corresponding to the international standard ISO 5794/1. The BET specific surface area corresponds to the total specific surface area of the particles under consideration. 
     Suitable examples of hydrophobic silica aerogels, may include, but are not limited to, the aerogels sold under the tradenames of VM-2260 (INCI name: Silica silylate) and VM-2270 (INCI name: Silica silylate), both available from Dow Corning Corporation (Midland, Mich.). The particles of VM-2260 have a mean size of about 1000 microns and a specific surface area per unit of mass ranging from 600 to 800 m 2 /g. The particles of VM-2270 have a mean size ranging from 5-15 microns and a specific surface area per unit of mass ranging from 600 to 800 m 2 /g. Another suitable example of a hydrophobic silica aerogel may include, but is not limited to, the aerogels commercially available from Cabot Corporation (Billerica, Mass.) under the tradename of Aerogel TLD 201, Aerogel OGD 201 and Aerogel TLD 203, Enova Aerogel MT 1100 and Enova Aerogel MT 1200. 
     When present, aerogels are present in the compositions, according to the invention, at a concentration, from about 0.1% to about 5%, and in some embodiments, from about 0.1% to about 2% by weight, and in some embodiments, from about 0.4% to about 0.8% by weight of the cosmetic composition. In some examples the aerogels are present in an amount that is not more than 0.6%. Thus, in various embodiments, the aerogels, when present, are present in a cosmetic composition according to the disclosure in a weight percent amount from about 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 to about 5.0 percent by weight, including increments and ranges there between.

     Inorganic UV Filters 
     The composition, according to the present invention, may comprise at least one inorganic UV filter. If two or more inorganic UV filters are used, they may be the same or different. 
     The inorganic UV filter used for the present invention may be active in the UV-A and/or UV-B region. The inorganic UV filter may be hydrophilic and/or lipophilic. The inorganic UV filter is in some embodiments insoluble in solvents, such as water, and ethanol commonly used in cosmetics. 
     It is in some embodiments desirable that the inorganic UV filter be in the form of a fine particle such that the mean (primary) particle diameter thereof ranges from 1 nm to 50 nm, and in some embodiments 5 nm to 40 nm, and in some embodiments 10 nm to 30 nm. The mean (primary) particle size or mean (primary) particle diameter here is an arithmetic mean diameter. 
     The inorganic UV filter can be selected from the group consisting of silicone carbide, metal oxides which may or may not be coated, and mixtures thereof. And in some embodiments, the inorganic UV filters are selected from pigments (mean size of the primary particles: generally from 5 nm to 50 nm, and in some embodiments from 10 nm to 50 nm) formed of metal oxides, such as, for example, pigments formed of titanium oxide (amorphous or crystalline in the rutile and/or anatase form), iron oxide, zinc oxide, zirconium oxide, or cerium oxide, which are all UV photoprotective agents that are well known per se. And in some embodiments, the inorganic UV filters are selected from titanium oxide, zinc oxide, and in some embodiments, titanium oxide. 
     The inorganic UV filter may or may not be coated. The inorganic UV filter may have at least one coating. The coating may comprise at least one compound selected from the group consisting of alumina, silica, aluminum hydroxide, silicones, silanes, fatty acids or salts thereof (such as sodium, potassium, zinc, iron, or aluminum salts), fatty alcohols, lecithin, amino acids, polysaccharides, proteins, alkanolamines, waxes, such as beeswax, (meth)acrylic polymers, organic UV filters, and (per)fluoro compounds. It is in some embodiments desirable for the coating to include at least one organic UV filter. As the organic UV filter in the coating, a dibenzoylmethane derivative, such as butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane (Avobenzone) and 2,2′-Methylenebis[6-(2H-Benzotriazol-2-yl)-4-(1,1,3,3-Tetramethyl-Butyl) Phenol] (Methylene Bis-Benzotriazolyl Tetramethylbutylphenol) marketed as “TINOSORB M” by BASF, may be desirable.

These ingredients may be soluble or dispersible in whatever phase or phases is/are present in the cosmetic composition (i.e., aqueous and/or fatty (oil) phase) or any other ingredient usually used in cosmetics and/or dermatology. 
     Optional Ingredients may be present in the compositions in amounts generally ranging from about 0.01% to 25%, in some embodiments from about 0.1% to 20%, and in some embodiments from about 0.5% to 15% by weight, all weights based on the total weight of the composition. Thus, in various embodiments, an SPF booster may be present in a composition in a weight percent amount from 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04, 0.05, 0.06, 0.07, 0.08, 0.09, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, 10.0, 11.0, 12.0, 13.0, 14.0, 15.0, 16.0, 17.0, 18.0, 19.0, 20.0, 21.0, 22.0, 23.0, 24.0 to 25.0 percent by weight, including increments there between. 
     Those skilled in the art will take care to select the optional additional compound(s) mentioned above and/or the amounts thereof such that the advantageous properties intrinsically associated with the compositions, in accordance with the invention, are not, or are not substantially, adversely affected by the envisaged addition(s). Those skilled in the art will choose said active agent(s) according to the desired effect on the skin, hair, eyelashes, eyebrows, or nails. 
     Stable Emulsion 
     Compositions, according to the present disclosure, include a stable composition. By “stable” it is meant that the compositions initially have a good aesthetic appearance, including lack of a grainy texture and no visually perceptible separation of phases. In addition, the “stable” cosmetic composition, according to the present disclosure, is stable after exposure to a plurality of freeze/thaw cycles. For example, a cosmetic composition is considered stable if its viscosity is within 10-UD from the initial viscosity after 10 days of freeze/thaw cycles (−20° C. to 25° C.) and does not exhibit signs of phase separation, does not show a grainy texture and/or become inhomogeneous. [INVENTORS: do you have viscosity data to provide?] 
     Method [INVENTORS: please supplement or revise this methods section as may be appropriate] 
     The cosmetic composition is prepared by combining the oil phase ingredients (shown as phase (A) in the examples), including organic UV filters, in a vessel and heating this oil phase while gently mixing until all solids dissolved, giving a homogeneous phase. The oil phase component is observed to verify that the components are dispersed and the mixing is continued while heating until fully homogeneous. 
     Once the oil phase components are mixed and homogenous, the water or aqueous phase ingredients (shown as phase (B) in the examples) are combined in a separate vessel and heated to, for example, 50-60° C. The water phase ingredients are mixed until the solids dissolved upon observation. In one embodiment, water-soluble UV filters can be added in the water phase. 
     Once the water phase is mixed and the components are dissolved, the water phase is added to the oil phase over a period of time, for example, for a period of 5-10 min. while mixing. The components are vigorously mixed, for example, with a propeller and/or rotor-stator, until a smooth and homogeneous emulsion is obtained. 
     In certain embodiments, an additional phase and/or other temperature-sensitive ingredients can be added to the blended oil and water phases at lower temperatures and mixed well until smooth and homogeneous. 
     The following examples are intended to further illustrate the present invention. They are not intended to limit the invention in any way. Unless otherwise indicated, all parts are by weight. 
     EXAMPLES 
     The inventive formulations were made generally in accordance with the method described above. As further described herein below, the inventive formulations were evaluated by addition of one or more supplemental components selected from stabilizing spherical powders and aerogels to evaluate haze/transmission aesthetic properties and to determine freeze/thaw stability.

     Evaluation of Stability 
     The samples of the inventive and comparative formulations, as described above, were subjected to Freeze/Thaw testing and subsequent evaluation of stability. In particular, the viscosity of each emulsion was examined to the initial preparations of the samples to confirm acceptability of the initial emulsion. Thereafter samples of the emulsion were subjected to conditions of cycles between −20° C. and 20° C. (a cycle includes exposer to each of −20° C. and 20° C., alternating between the two temperatures for a duration of 12 hours at each temperature) for a 10-day period, after which the viscosity and physical features were evaluated. Differences between the initial features and the 10 day features showed whether the emulsion was stable. Samples of the emulsion were also subjected to 10 freeze/thaw cycles. 
     As shown in the data tables, compositions according to the disclosure that are in the form of water-in-oil emulsions having an oil phase comprising a silicone elastomer gel comprising an emulsifying elastomer, and at least one non-swelling non-emulsifying silicone elastomer and an aqueous phase comprising water and one or more additional components selected from actives and other additives are not stable to F/T cycles except in the presence of stabilizing spherical powders. Particularly good results were obtained with powders selected from Methyl Methacrylate Crosspolymer and HDI/Trimethylol Hexyllactone Crosspolymer, as shown in Table 1. This stability is achieved whether or not any aerogel is present, as shown in Table 1 and 8. Moreover, this stability is achieved, in particular, in compositions that lack swelling non-emulsifying silicone elastomers. Further, as shown in Table 2-5, inventive compositions according to the disclosure that lack spherical powders including but not limited to Methyl Methacrylate Crosspolymer and HDI/Trimethylol Hexyllactone Crosspolymer cannot be stabilized by the inclusion of aerogel and/or aerogel with other cosmetic powders such as powders with non-spherical particulate shape.
