7.Description:
(en)The present invention relates to a composition comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable carrier, at least one UV screening system, characterized in that it comprises:
(i) at least one screening agent of lipophilic 2-hydroxybenzophenone type;
(ii) at least one silicon-comprising s-triazine of formula (III) substituted by at least two alkylaminobenzoate groups.
It is known that light radiation with wavelengths of between 280 nm and 400 nm makes possible burning of the human epidermis and that rays with wavelengths more particularly of between 280 and 320 nm, known under the name of UV-B, cause erythemas and skin burns which may be harmful to the development of natural tanning. For these reasons, and also for aesthetic reasons, there is constant demand for means for controlling this natural tanning in order thus to control the colour of the skin; this UV-B radiation should thus be screened out.
It is also known that UV-A rays, with wavelengths between 320 and 400 nm, which cause browning of the skin, are liable to induce adverse changes therein, in particular in the case of sensitive skin or skin that is continually exposed to solar radiation. UV-A rays cause in particular a loss of elasticity of the skin and the appearance of wrinkles leading to premature ageing of the skin. They promote triggering of the erythemal reaction or amplify this reaction in certain individuals and may even be the cause of phototoxic or photoallergic reactions. Thus, for aesthetic and cosmetic reasons, for instance conservation of the skin's natural elasticity, for example, people increasingly wish to control the effect of UV-A rays on their skin. It is thus desirable also to screen out UV-A radiation.
For the purpose of protecting the skin and keratin materials against UV radiation, antisun compositions comprising organic screening agents that are active in the UV-A range and in the UV-B range are generally used.
Lipophilic benzophenone derivatives are known to be photostable screening agents which absorb UV-A radiation and some of them, such as amino-substituted 2-hydroxybenzophenones, such as n-hexyl 2-(4-diethylamino-2-hydroxybenzoyl)benzoate, sold under the name Uvinul A+ by BASF, are highly effective.
UV-B screening agents which are particularly advantageous and which are widely used at the present time are lipophilic screening agents of the silicon-free 1,3,5-triazine type. They are described in Patent Applications EP-A-0 517 104, EP-A-0 570 838, EP-A-796 851 and EP-A-0 775 698. The derivative 2,4,6-tris[p-(2′-ethylhexyl-1′-oxycarbonyl)anilino]-1,3,5-triazine, sold in particular under the trade name “Uvinul T150” by BASF, is known in particular. These lipophilic screening agents active in the UV-B region exhibit the disadvantage of being solid at ambient temperature. Their use in antisun compositions brings about formulation restrictions, with a need to identify solvents which make it possible to correctly dissolve them.
Other advantageous UV-B screening agents used in antisun compositions at the present time are alkyl β,β-diphenylacrylate or alkyl α-cyano-β,β-diphenylacrylate; mention may be made of 2-ethylhexyl α-cyano-β,β-diphenylacrylate, also known as octocrylene. It is available commercially and is sold in particular under the name “UVINUL N 539” by BASF. These screening agents exhibit the advantage of being easy to formulate but their screening properties are relatively weak, which is reflected by high concentrations of use in order to obtain an advantageous level of UV screening.
Cinnamic derivatives, such as 2-ethylhexyl 4-methoxycinnamate or isoamyl 4-methoxycinnamate, are good solvents for UV screening agents which are difficult to dissolve in oils and exhibit good photoprotection properties in the UV-B region. These cinnamic derivatives have the disadvantage of exhibiting an inadequate photostability and of disrupting the photostability of the complete screening systems into which they are introduced.
Silicon-comprising s-triazines substituted by at least two alkylaminobenzoate or alkylaminobenzamide groups are known, in Applications EP 0 841 341 and EP 1 891 079, for their absorbing properties in the UV-B region. The Applicant Company, during its research studies, has found that not all of these silicon-comprising triazine compounds substituted by at least two alkylaminobenzoate groups, in particular those for which the alkyl chain comprises more than 10 carbon atoms, make it possible to obtain a satisfactory effectiveness in combination with UV-A screening agents.
It thus appears necessary to have available a system which extensively screens out UV-A and UV-B radiation and which is easy to employ in antisun compositions without the abovementioned disadvantages, namely to obtain a system which screens out UV-A and UV-B rays which is photostable, which has a high protection factor and which has good solubility in antisun formulations.
In point of fact, the Applicant Company has now just discovered, surprisingly, that, by combining at least one screening agent of lipophilic 2-hydroxybenzophenone type with a silicon-comprising s-triazine substituted by at least two alkylaminobenzoate groups of formula (III), the definition of which will be given later, it is possible to obtain a system which extensively screens out UV-A and UV-B radiation, and which is easy to employ in antisun compositions without the abovementioned disadvantages.
This discovery forms the basis of the present invention.
Thus, in accordance with one of the subject-matters of the present invention, a composition is now proposed comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable carrier, at least one UV screening system, characterized in that it comprises:
(i) at least one lipophilic screening agent of hydroxybenzophenone type;
(ii) at least one silicon-comprising s-triazine of formula (III) substituted by at least two alkylaminobenzoate groups.
Other characteristics, aspects and advantages of the invention will become apparent on reading the detailed description which will follow.
The term “cosmetically acceptable” means compatible with the skin and/or its integuments, which has a pleasant colour, odour and feel, and which does not cause any unacceptable discomfort (stinging, tautness or redness) liable to dissuade the consumer from using this composition.
The term “lipophilic compound” means any cosmetic or dermatological compound capable of being completely dissolved in the molecular state in a liquid fatty phase or else of being dissolved in the colloidal form (for example in the micelle form) in a liquid fatty phase.
The Applicant Company has also discovered, surprisingly, that the use of a screening agent active in the UV-B region of the type consisting of silicon-comprising s-triazine substituted by two aminobenzoate groups of formula (III), which will be defined in detail later, in combination with a UV-A screening agent of lipophilic 2-hydroxybenzophenone type, in the presence of a dibenzoylmethane derivative, makes it possible to obtain good photostabilization of the dibenzoylmethane derivatives with regard to UV radiation, in association with good effectiveness of protection in the UV-B region, in order to be able to ensure complete and effective protection of the skin from attacks related to exposure to UV radiation constitutes, at the present time, a problem which has still not been solved in an entirely satisfactory fashion.
This is because dibenzoylmethane derivatives, in particular 4-tert-butyl-4′-methoxydibenzoylmethane, are known as screening agents active in the UV-A region and are described in particular in French Patent Applications FR-A-2 326 405 and FR-A-2 440 933 and in European Patent Application EP-A-0 114 607. Unfortunately, it transpires that dibenzoylmethane derivatives are products which are relatively sensitive to ultraviolet radiation (in particular UV-A radiation), that is to say that they decompose more or less rapidly under the action of the latter. Thus, this substantial lack of photochemical stability in the face of the ultraviolet radiation to which they are by nature intended to be subjected does not make it possible to guarantee continual protection during prolonged exposure to the sun.
Several means are known at the present time for the photostabilization of dibenzoylmethane derivatives. Thus, it is known, in Patent Application EP 0 514 491, that alkyl β,β-diphenylacrylate or α-cyano β,β-diphenylacrylate derivatives substantially improve the photostability of dibenzoylmethane derivatives. Unfortunately, while these screening agents are very effective with regard to the improvement in the photostability of dibenzoylmethane derivatives, they still exhibit a mediocre absorbing power for UV-B radiation.
It is also known, in Patent Application EP 1 280 505, that Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine alone improves the photostability of dibenzoylmethane derivatives. Unfortunately, while this screening agent has a high absorbing power for UV-B radiation, it nevertheless exhibits a limited effectiveness with regard to the improvement in the photostability of dibenzoylmethane derivatives and also limited solubility in oils.
Provision has also been made, in Applications EP 0 843 996 and EP 0 864 313, to improve the photostability of a dibenzoylmethane derivative with a lipophilic 2-hydroxybenzophenone, such as 2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone or benzophenone-3. This combination does not make it possible to obtain a photostability of the dibenzoylmethane which is completely satisfactory or to obtain broad coverage of the UV spectrum.
Patent Applications EP 1 323 411 and U.S. Pat. No. 6,699,461, which describe antisun compositions comprising an amino-substituted 2-hydroxybenzophenone derivative in combination with a dibenzoylmethane derivative in a ratio by weight of the amino-substituted 2-hydroxybenzophenone derivative to the dibenzoylmethane derivative of greater than 1, are also known. Unfortunately, while this combination has an improved photostability, it is found to be highly restricted to the ratio of the two screening agents and does not make it possible to obtain broad coverage of the UV spectrum.
Provision has also been made, in Application EP 1 891 079, to improve the photostability of dibenzoylmethane derivatives with silicon-comprising s-triazines substituted by at least two alkylaminobenzoate or alkylaminobenzamide groups. The Applicant Company, during its research studies, has found that not all of these silicon-comprising triazine compounds, in particular those having alkylaminobenzoate groups whose alkyl chain comprises more than 10 carbon atoms, make it possible to obtain a satisfactory effectiveness.
In point of fact, the Applicant Company has now just discovered, surprisingly, that the use of a screening agent active in the UV-B region of the type consisting of silicon-comprising s-triazine substituted by two aminobenzoate groups of formula (III), which will be defined in detail later, in combination with a UV-A screening agent of lipophilic 2-hydroxybenzophenone type, in the presence of a dibenzoylmethane derivative, makes it possible to solve the abovementioned technical problems.
Thus, in accordance with one of the subject-matters of the present invention, a composition is now proposed comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable carrier, at least one UV screening system, characterized in that it comprises:
(i) at least one dibenzoylmethane derivative;
(ii) at least one UV screening agent of lipophilic 2-hydroxybenzophenone type; and
(iii) at least one silicon-comprising s-triazine substituted by at least two alkylaminobenzoate groups of formula (III).
It also relates to a method for the photostabilization with regard to radiation of at least one screening agent of the type derived from dibenzoylmethane by an effective amount of at least one screening agent of lipophilic 2-hydroxybenzophenone type and of at least one silicon-comprising s-triazine substituted by at least two aminobenzoate groups of formula (III) defined below.
The term “effective amount” means an amount sufficient to obtain a noteworthy and significant improvement in the photostability of the dibenzoylmethane derivative or derivatives in the cosmetic composition. This minimum amount of lipophilic 2-hydroxybenzophenone and silicon-comprising s-triazine of formula (III), which can vary according to the nature of the carrier selected for the composition, can be determined without any difficulty by means of a conventional test for measuring photostability, such as that given in the examples below.

The additional inorganic screening agents are chosen from coated or uncoated metal oxide pigments, the mean size of the primary particles of which is preferably between 5 nm and 100 nm (preferably between 10 nm and 50 nm), 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 well known per se.
The pigments can be coated or uncoated.
The coated pigments are pigments that have undergone one or more surface treatments of chemical, electronic, mechanochemical and/or mechanical nature with compounds as described, for example, in Cosmetics & Toiletries, February 1990, Vol. 105, pp. 53-64, such as amino acids, beeswax, fatty acids, fatty alcohols, anionic surfactants, lecithins, sodium, potassium, zinc, iron or aluminium salts of fatty acids, metal alkoxides (titanium or aluminium alkoxides), polyethylene, silicones, proteins (collagen, elastin), alkanolamines, silicon oxides, metal oxides or sodium hexametaphosphate.
As is known, silicones are organosilicon polymers or oligomers of linear or cyclic, branched or crosslinked structure, of variable molecular weight, obtained by polymerization and/or polycondensation of suitably functionalized silanes, and consist essentially of a repetition of main units in which the silicon atoms are linked together via oxygen atoms (siloxane bond), optionally substituted hydrocarbon radicals being directly attached via a carbon atom to the said silicon atoms.
The term “silicones” also includes the silanes required for their preparation, in particular alkylsilanes.
The silicones used for the coating of the pigments suitable for the present invention are preferably chosen from the group consisting of alkylsilanes, polydialkylsiloxanes and polyalkylhydrosiloxanes. More preferably still, the silicones are chosen from the group containing octyltrimethylsilane, polydimethylsiloxanes and polymethylhydrosiloxanes.
Of course, before being treated with silicones, the metal oxide pigments may have been treated with other surface agents, in particular with cerium oxide, alumina, silica, aluminium compounds or silicon compounds, or mixtures thereof.
The coated pigments are more particularly titanium oxides that have been coated:
with silica, such as the product Sunveil from the company Ikeda and the product Eusolex T-AVO from the company Merck, with silica and iron oxide, such as the product Sunveil F from the company Ikeda, with silica and alumina, such as the products Microtitanium Dioxide MT 500 SA and Microtitanium Dioxide MT 100 SA from the company Tayca, Tioveil from the company Tioxide and Mirasun TiW 60 from the company Rhodia, with alumina, such as the products Tipaque TTO-55 (B) and Tipaque TTO-55 (A) from the company Ishihara and UVT 14/4 from the company Kemira, with alumina and aluminium stearate, such as the product Microtitanium Dioxide MT 100 TV, MT 100 TX, MT 100 Z and MT-01 from the company Tayca, and the products Solaveil CT-10 W, Solaveil CT 100 and Solaveil CT 200 from the company Uniqema, with silica, alumina and alginic acid, such as the product MT-100 AQ from the company Tayca, with alumina and aluminium laurate, such as the product Microtitanium Dioxide MT 100 S from the company Tayca, with iron oxide and iron stearate, such as the product Microtitanium Dioxide MT 100 F from the company Tayca, with zinc oxide and zinc stearate, such as the product BR351 from the company Tayca, with silica and alumina and treated with a silicone, such as the products Microtitanium Dioxide MT 600 SAS, Microtitanium Dioxide MT 500 SAS or Microtitanium Dioxide MT 100 SAS from the company Tayca, with silica, alumina and aluminium stearate and treated with a silicone, such as the product STT-30-DS from the company Titan Kogyo, with silica and treated with a silicone, such as the product UV-Titan X 195 from the company Kemira, or the product SMT-100 WRS from the company Tayca, with alumina and treated with a silicone, such as the products Tipaque TTO-55 (S) from the company Ishihara or UV Titan M 262 from the company Kemira, with triethanolamine, such as the product STT-65-S from the company Titan Kogyo, with stearic acid, such as the product Tipaque TTO-55 (C) from the company Ishihara, with sodium hexametaphosphate, such as the product Microtitanium Dioxide MT 150 W from the company Tayca.

Other titanium oxide pigments treated with a silicone are preferably TiO 2 treated with octyltrimethylsilane and for which the mean size of the elementary particles is between 25 and 40 nm, such as the product sold under the trade name T 805 by the company Degussa Silices, TiO 2 treated with a polydimethylsiloxane and for which the mean size of the elementary particles is 21 nm, such as the product sold under the trade name 70250 Cardre UF TiO2SI3 by the company Cardre, anatase/rutile TiO 2 treated with a polydimethylhydrosiloxane and for which the mean size of the elementary particles is 25 nm, such as the product sold under the trade name Microtitanium Dioxide USP Grade Hydrophobic by the company Color Techniques.

The concentration of these fillers with an effect on the signs of ageing in the compositions according to the invention may be between 0.1% and 40% or even between 0.1% and 20% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.
Agents for Promoting the Naturally Pinkish Coloration of the Skin
Mention may be made especially of:
a self-tanning agent, i.e. an agent which, when applied to the skin, especially to the face, can produce a tanning effect that is more or less similar in appearance to that which may result from prolonged exposure to the sun (natural tanning) or under a UV lamp; an additional colouring agent, i.e. any compound that has a particular affinity for the skin, which allows it to give the skin a lasting and non-covering (i.e. that does not have a tendency to opacify the skin) coloration and that is not removed either with water or using a solvent, and that withstands both rubbing and washing with a solution containing surfactants. Such a lasting coloration is thus distinguished from the superficial and transient coloration provided, for example, by a makeup pigment;

and mixtures thereof.
Examples of self-tanning agents that may especially be mentioned include:
dihydroxyacetone (DHA),
erythrulose, and
the combination of a catalytic system formed from:
manganese and/or zinc salts and oxides, and
alkali metal and/or alkaline earth metal hydrogen carbonates.

DHA will preferably be used.
DHA may be used in free and/or encapsulated form, for example encapsulated in lipid vesicles, such as liposomes, especially described in Patent Application WO 97/25970.
In general, the self-tanning agent is present in an amount ranging from 0.01% to 20% by weight and preferably in an amount of between 0.1% and 10% of the total weight of the composition.
Other dyes that allow modification of the colour produced by the self-tanning agent may also be used.
These dyes may be chosen from synthetic or natural direct dyes.
These dyes may be chosen, for example, from red or orange dyes of the fluoran type, such as those described in Patent Application FR 2 840 806. Mention may be made, for example, of the following dyes:
tetrabromofluorescein or eosin, known under the CTFA name: CI-45380 or Red 21 phloxin B, known under the CTFA name: CI-45410 or Red 27 diiodofluorescein, known under the CTFA name: CI-45425 or Orange 10; dibromofluorescein, known under the CTFA name: CI-45370 or Orange 5; the sodium salt of tetrabromofluorescein, known under the CTFA name: CI-45380 (Na salt) or Red 22; the sodium salt of phloxin B, known under the CTFA name: CI-45410 (Na salt) or Red 28; the sodium salt of diiodofluorescein, known under the CTFA name: CI-45425 (Na salt) or Orange 11; erythrosine, known under the CTFA name: CI-45430 or Acid Red 51. phloxin, known under the CTFA name: CI-45405 or Acid Red 98.

These dyes may also be chosen from indole derivatives, for instance the monohydroxyindoles as described in Patent FR 2 651 126 (i.e.: 4-, 5-, 6- or 7-hydroxyindole) or the dihydroxyindoles as described in Patent EP-B-0 425 324 (i.e.: 5,6-dihydroxyindole, 2-methyl-5,6-dihydroxyindole, 3-methyl-5,6-dihydroxy-indole or 2,3-dimethyl-5,6-dihydroxyindole).
Abrasive Fillers or Exfoliants
As exfoliants that may be used in rinse-out compositions according to the invention, examples that may be mentioned include exfoliant or scrubbing particles of mineral, plant or organic origin. Thus, polyethylene beads or powder, Nylon powder, polyvinyl chloride powder, pumice powder, ground apricot kernel or walnut husk, sawdust, glass beads and alumina, and mixtures thereof, may be used, for example. Mention may also be made of Exfogreen® from Solabia (bamboo extract), extracts of strawberry achenes (Strawberry achenes from Greentech), peach kernel powder, apricot kernel powder, and finally, in the field of plant powders with an abrasive effect, mention may be made of cranberry seed powder.

The mixture is heated to 70° C. and a solution of the derivative from the first stage of Example 3 (17.2 g, 0.0401 mol) in 50 ml of ethyl acetate is run in dropwise over 30 minutes. The mixture is left at 70° C. for 2 hours. After cooling, the organic phase is washed with a saturated sodium chloride solution and then with water and dried. The paste obtained is chromatographed on a silica column (eluent: heptane/EtOAc 8:2). The clean fractions of the product of Example 13 are thus obtained (14.4 g, Yield 42%) in the form of a pale brown wax:
UV (Ethanol): λ max =311 nm, E 1% =1450.

First Stage: Preparation of 2,4-bis(n-butyl 4′-aminobenzoate)-6-chloro-s-triazine
n-Butyl para-aminobenzoate (113.94 g, 0.59 mol) and a solution of potassium carbonate (40.68 g, 0.295 mol) in 50 ml of water are simultaneously added dropwise at 5° C. to a solution of cyanuric chloride (54.36 g, 0.295 mol) in 500 ml of dioxane and 50 ml of water, so that the pH lies between 3 and 6.5. The mixture is maintained at 5° C. for 1 hour 30 minutes. A precipitate is formed in the medium, which corresponds to the monosubstituted s-triazine. The mixture is gradually heated to 70° C. and the second equivalent of potassium carbonate (40.68 g, 0.295 mol) in 50 ml of water is added. Stirring is subsequently maintained at 70° C. for 5 hours. The reaction mixture is cooled and filtered. The precipitate formed is washed with water, superficially dewatered and dried. After recrystallizing from dioxane/water and drying under vacuum, 52.5 g (yield: 36%) of the first recrystallization crop of 2,4-bis(n-butyl 4′-aminobenzoate)-6-chloro-s-triazine are obtained in the form of a white powder.
The heterogeneous mixture of the product from the first stage of the example (20 g, 0.04 mol) and aminopropyldiethoxymethylsilane (15.37 g, 0.08 mol) is gradually heated to 70° C. while sparging with nitrogen. After one hour, the mixture is cooled, dichloromethane is added and the organic phase is washed 3 times with water. After drying the organic phase and evaporating the solvents, followed by recrystallization with heptane, 21 g (yield 80%) of a white solid of the derivative of Example 15 are obtained:

160 ml of 0.1N hydrochloric acid and 340 ml of the ethanol/isopropanol mixture in the ratio 80:20 are added to the derivative of Example 6 (10 g, 0.013 mol) dissolved in 500 ml of the ethanol/isopropanol mixture in the ratio 80:20. The mixture is left stirring at laboratory temperature for 5 hours. This solution is neutralized with 0.4% sodium hydroxide solution up to a pH of 7. 1 litre of water is added thereto and the solution is lyophilized. The lyophilized batches are combined to give 6.5 g of a light beige powder which comprises, as relative percentages by HPLC, approximately 28% of the derivative of Example 16 and approximately 10% of the derivative of Example 17. This powder was fractionated by centrifugal partition chromatography (with two-phase systems composed of heptane, ethyl acetate, methanol and water in different proportions) to give 0.58 g of the derivative of Example 16 in the form of a white powder:

These compositions were evaluated according to the following properties: Solubility of the screening agents, Screening efficacy, Photostability.
Emulsion Preparation Method:
The aqueous phase A and the oily phase B1 are prepared by mixing the starting materials, with mechanical stirring, at 80° C.; the solutions obtained are macroscopically homogeneous. The emulsion is prepared by slow introduction of the oily phase into the aqueous phase with stirring using a Moritz homogenizer at a stirring speed of 4000 rpm for 15 minutes. The emulsion obtained is cooled with stirring to 40° C. and then the oily phase B2 is added thereto with gentle stirring. The emulsion obtained is cooled to room temperature, with slow stirring. It is characterized by drops of between 1 μm and 10 μm in size.
Protocol for Evaluating the Solubility of the UV Screening Agents
Preparation of the solutions of UV screening agents: the screening agent and the oil are weighed out in a 10 ml glass flask for a total mixture of 5 g. Dissolution is carried out under hot conditions on a water bath at 80° C. with magnetic stirring. When dissolution is complete (clear solution), the solution is stored at ambient temperature. The appearance of macroscopic crystals is monitored over time.

These results show that only the combination of a UV-A screening agent of 2-hydroxybenzophenone type (Uvinul A+) and of a UV-B screening agent chosen from the silicon-comprising s-triazines substituted by two aminobenzoate groups of formula (III) makes it possible to obtain a screening system of high efficacy, which is easy to employ in cosmetic compositions due to its good solubility and which is photostable. For the combinations based on other UV-B screening agents, such as silicon-comprising s-triazine substituted by two C 12 alkyl aminobenzoate groups, 2-ethylhexyl α-cyano-β,β-diphenylacrylate, 2-ethylhexyl 4-methoxycinnamate or 2,4,6-tris[p-(2′-ethylhexyl-1′-oxycarbonyl)anilino]-1,3,5-triazine, the performances in terms of screening efficacy, of solubility or of photostability are inferior to those of the combination of the invention.

Procedure
Fatty phase a is heated to 70° C. Aqueous phase b is heated in the final beaker. Phase c is prepared: dispersion of the powders in the oil. The fatty phase is emulsified in the aqueous phase with stirring using a rotor-stator. Phase c is introduced with faster stirring and then the mixture is left under slow stirring until it has returned to ambient temperature. The mixture is neutralized with phase d and packaged.
