Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to novel silicone derivatives and cosmetic compositions which comprise such a silicone derivative, and exhibit good compatibility with the skin and moreover afford an excellent moisturized feel upon use.

2. Description of the Background

Silicone oils have been widely used as oily substances for cosmetic compositions to date due to the fact that they are excellent in lubricating property, water repellency, gloss-imparting ability, stability and safety.

Among the silicone oils, high-molecular weight dimethylpolysiloxanes have been used most commonly as oily substances for cosmetic compositions. However, they involve drawbacks that they are poor in solubility in polar oily substances and water, and moreover difficult to emulsify in a system containing a hydrocarbon type oily substance. Furthermore, cosmetic compositions containing such a silicone oil have a squeaky feel peculiar to the silicone oil and are also poor in compatibility with the skin, and hence have been not wholly satisfactory from the viewpoint of feel such as a moisturized feel.

Accordingly, there has been a demand for development of a silicone derivative which does not suffer from the above-described drawbacks and affords an excellent feeling upon use, which is not found in the conventional silicone oils.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide novel silicone derivatives which exhibit good compatibility with the skin.

It is another object of the present invention to provide novel silicone derivatives which provide good feeling to the skin when used as a cosmetic.

It is another object of the present invention to provide novel silicone derivatives which exhibit a reduced tendency to result in a squeaky feeling on-the skin.

It is another object of the present invention to provide novel silicone derivatives which are compatible with hydrocarbon type oily substances, polar oily substances, and water, and can stably maintain systems, such as emulsions, containing these substances.

It is another object of the present invention to provide novel cosmetic compositions which contain such silicone derivatives.

These and other objects, which will become apparent during the following detailed description, have been achieved by the inventors' discovery that a silicone derivative (1) having polysiloxane units represented by the general formulae (A), (B) and (C), which will be described subsequently, is good in compatibility with hydrocarbon type oily substances, polar oily substances, water and the like and can stably maintain systems containing them, and cosmetic compositions containing this silicone derivative are good in compatibility to the skin, do not have a squeaky feel peculiar to silicone oils and give an excellent moisturized feeling upon use.

In a first aspect of the present invention, there is thus provided a silicone derivative (1) having polysiloxane units represented by the following general formulae (A), (B) and (C): ##STR2## wherein R.sup.1 is a polycyclic hydrocarbon group having 7-30 carbon atoms, R.sup.2 denotes a straight-chain, branched, alicyclic or aromatic hydrocarbon group having 2-30 carbon atoms, X is a single bond, --COO--, --CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 --OCOO-- or --CH.sub.2 COO--, n stands for an integer of 2-16, p is an integer of 1-100, and q and r are each independently an integer of 0-100.

In another aspect of the present invention, there is also provided a cosmetic composition comprising this silicone derivative (1).

The silicone derivative (1) according to the present invention is good in compatibility with hydrocarbon type oily substances, polar oily substances, water and the like and can stably maintain systems containing them and hence is useful as an oily substance for cosmetic compositions, which is widely applied. In addition, the silicone derivative (1) of the present invention is (1) liquid at room temperature, (2) low in viscosity and not sticky to the touch, (3) chemically stable, (4) extremely low in irritation to the skin, (5) good in compatibility with the skin owing to the similarity of its skeleton to the lipid between horny cells. Therefore, it is particularly useful as an oily substance for cosmetic compositions which are applied directly to the skin.

Besides, the cosmetic compositions containing the silicone derivative (1) according to this invention are good in conformability to the skin, greatly reduced in squeaky feel peculiar to silicone oils and give an excellent moisturized feel upon use.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

As illustrative examples of the polycyclic hydrocarbon group represented by R.sup.1 and having 7-30 carbon atoms in the polysiloxane unit (A) of the silicone derivative (1) according to the present invention, may be mentioned a cholesteryl group, dihydrocholesteryl group, tetrahydroabiethyl group and the like. It is preferred that the polycyclic hydrocarbon of R' have 10-30 carbon atoms.

In the polysiloxane unit (B), the hydrocarbon group represented by R.sup.2 is preferably a straight-chain or branched alkyl or alkenyl group having 2-30 carbon atoms, or an aromatic group such as a phenyl group, with a straight-chain or branched alkyl group having 2-30 carbon atoms being particularly preferred. As specific examples thereof, may be mentioned an ethyl group, propyl group, butyl group, hexyl group, heptyl group, octyl group, nonyl group, decyl group, tetradecyl group, hexadecyl group, octadecyl group, docosyl group and the like.

No particular limitation is imposed on the average molecular weight of the silicone derivative (1) of this invention. However, it is preferably 500-30,000 particularly 1,000-20,000. Besides, the molecular weight of the methylpolysiloxane moieties [the portions of --Si(CH.sub.3)O--] in this silicone derivative (1) is preferably 10,000 or lower. Thus, the sum of p+q+r is typically an integer of 1 to 160, preferably 5 to 120.

No particular limitation is imposed on the combination of the siloxane unit of (A) with the other siloxane units (B) and (C) in the silicone derivative (1) of the present invention and on their combination form, so long as the siloxane unit (A) is contained therein.

Further, the units (A), (B) and (C) may be combined either at random or in the form of blocks. Thus, the present silicone derivatives include homopolymers of (A) and both random and block copolymers of (A) with (B) and/or (C). In all the cases, the units (A) and (B) may be selected independently from the permitted values even within a particular silicone derivative. Thus, the present derivatives include polymers in which two or more different (A) units and/or (B) units are present.

It is also to be understood that the extra valencies occurring on the terminal groups of the present .silicone derivatives are bonded to a suitable monovalent group, such as methyl group. It is further to be understood that when X is --CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 --OCOO--, the bond from the methylene group is attached to the O bonded to X, and the bond from the carbonate moiety is attached to R.sub.1. Similarly, when X is --CH.sub.2 COO--, the bond from the methylene group is attached to the O atom bonded to X, and the bond from the carboxylate moiety is attached to R.sub.1.
