Patent Application
20210244649
The present invention aims to propose, for the field of caring for and/or making up keratin materials, especially the skin, a novel composition comprising at least one silicone/polyurea copolymer and/or the silicone/polyurethane copolymer and/or a silicone/polyurea/polyurethane copolymer in accordance with the invention is chosen from compounds having the chemical structure of formula (I) as defined below, at least one silicone resin, at least one volatile alkane and at least one monoalcohol comprising from 2 to 8 carbon atoms.
Cosmetic makeup compositions are commonly used to give keratin materials such as the skin an esthetic color, but also to enhance the beauty of irregular skin, by making it possible to hide marks and dyschromias, and to reduce the visibility of relief imperfections such as pores and wrinkles. Many formulations have been developed to date.
For several years, consumers have been searching for compositions which provide a good wear property of the make-up effect over time in order to be able to avoid having to re-apply the composition too often. A poor wear property over time may be reflected in particular by poor wearing of the color and/or poor retention of matteness over time. This poor wear property may be characterized by a modification in the color (change or fading of the color) or the matteness following an interaction with the sebum and/or sweat secreted by the skin in the cases of foundation and pressed powder. This obliges the user to reapply the makeup very regularly, which may be time consuming.
For several years, consumers have been searching for “transfer-free” makeup compositions for keratin materials, which are compositions that have the advantage of forming a deposit that does not transfer, at least partly, onto supports with which they come into contact (glass, clothing, cigarette or fabrics).
Patent application WO 2017/216475 proposes makeup compositions comprising, in a physiologically acceptable medium, at least one silicone-polyurethane polymer such as the polymer with the INCI name: Bis-Hydroxypropyl Dimethicone/SMDI Copolymer (SILMER UR-5050® by Siltech), a silicone resin and isododecane, with a view to obtaining good makeup properties, a good wear property and good resistance to rubbing. However, some of these compositions may produce, after application, a tacky effect which is unpleasant for the consumer's comfort.
There is thus the need to find new cosmetic compositions which have a good compromise between wear property, being transfer-free and significantly reducing or even eliminating the tacky effect after application.
The Applicant has just discovered, surprisingly, that this objective could be achieved with a composition, especially a composition for coating keratin materials, more particularly for making up and/or caring for keratin materials such as the skin, and comprising, in particular in a cosmetically acceptable medium:
a) at least one silicone/polyurea copolymer and/or a silicone/polyurethane copolymer and/or a silicone/polyurea/polyurethane copolymer of formula (I) as defined below; and
b) at least one volatile alkane; and
c) at least one monoalcohol comprising from 2 to 8 carbon atoms; and
d) at least one silicone resin.
Indeed, the Applicant has observed, during its research, that the composition according to the invention results in compositions which have an excellent wear property and a good transfer-free effect while at the same time reducing or even eliminating its tacky nature.
The invention also relates to a process for coating keratin materials, more particularly for making up and/or caring for keratin materials such as the skin, characterized in that it comprises the application to the keratin materials of a composition as defined previously.
The present invention also relates to a cosmetic assembly comprising
a) at least one silicone/polyurea copolymer and/or a silicone/polyurethane copolymer and/or a silicone/polyurea/polyurethane copolymer of formula (I) as defined below; and
b) at least one volatile alkane; and
c) at least one monoalcohol comprising from 2 to 8 carbon atoms; and
d) at least one silicone resin
This discovery forms the basis of the present invention.

Silicone Resin
The composition according to the invention comprises at least one silicone resin.
More generally, the term “resin” means a compound of which the structure is three-dimensional. “Silicone resins” are also known as “siloxane resins”. Thus, for the purposes of the present invention, a polydimethylsiloxane is not a silicone resin.
The nomenclature of silicone resins (also known as siloxane resins) is known under the name “MDTQ”, the resin being described as a function of the various siloxane monomer units it comprises, each of the letters “MDTQ” characterizing a type of unit.
The letter M represents the monofunctional unit of formula R1R2R3SiO1/2, the silicon atom being bonded to only one oxygen atom in the polymer comprising this unit.
The letter D means a difunctional unit R1R2SiO2/2 in which the silicon atom is bonded to two oxygen atoms.
The letter T represents a trifunctional unit of formula R1SiO3/2.
Such resins are described, for example, in the Encyclopedia of Polymer Science and Engineering, vol. 15, John Wiley and Sons, New York, (1989), pp. 265-270, and U.S. Pat. Nos. 2,676,182, 3,627,851, 3,772,247, 5,248,739 or else U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,082,706, 5,319,040, 5,302,685 and 4,935,484.
In the units M, D and T defined previously, R, namely R1, R2 and R3, represents a hydrocarbon-based radical (especially alkyl) containing from 1 to 10 carbon atoms, a phenyl group, a phenylalkyl group or a hydroxyl group.
Finally, the letter “Q” means a tetrafunctional unit SiO4/2 in which the silicon atom is bonded to four oxygen atoms, which are themselves bonded to the rest of the polymer.
Various silicone resins with different properties may be obtained from these different units, the properties of these polymers varying as a function of the type of monomer (or unit), the nature and number of the radical R, the length of the polymer chain, the degree of branching and the size of the side chains.
As silicone resins that may be used in the compositions according to the invention, use may be made, for example, of silicone resins of MQ type, of T type or of MQT type.
MQ Resins:
As examples of silicone resins of MQ type, mention may be made of the alkyl siloxysilicates of formula [(R1)3SiO1/2]x(SiO)y (MQ units) in which x and y are integers ranging from 50 to 80, and such that the group R1 represents a radical as defined previously, and is preferably an alkyl group containing from 1 to 8 carbon atoms or a hydroxyl group, preferably a methyl group.
As examples of solid silicone resins of MQ type of trimethyl siloxysilicate type, mention may be made of those sold under the reference SR1000®, E 1 170-002® or SS 4230® by the company General Electric, under the reference TMS 803®, WACKER 803® and 804® by the company Wacker, under the name “KF-7312J®” by the company Shin-Etsu, “DC 749®”, “DC 593®” by the company Dow Corning.

on condition that at least 40 mol % of the groups R3 are propyl groups,
in which the weight ratio A/B is between 95/5 and 15/85 and preferably the weight ratio NB is 30/70.
Advantageously, the weight ratio NB is between 95/5 and 15/85. Preferably, the ratio NB is less than or equal to 70/30. These preferred ratios have proven to afford comfortable deposits.
Preferably, the composition according to the invention comprises, as silicone resin, at least one MQ resin as described previously, and more particularly of trimethylsiloxysilicate type.
According to a particular embodiment of the invention, the silicone resin is present in the composition in a resin solids content ranging from 2% to 20% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition, preferably ranging from 3% to 15% by weight relative to the weight of the composition.

The compositions of the invention may comprise one or more monoalcohol(s).
This monoalcohol can be represented, for example, by the formula RaOH, in which Ra represents a linear or branched alkyl group comprising from 2 to 8 carbon atoms.
As monoalcohol, mention may be made of ethanol, isopropanol, propanol or butanol, and mixtures thereof.
According to one embodiment, the compositions of the invention comprise isopropanol.
The amount of monoalcohol(s) preferentially ranges from 2% to 20% by weight and more preferentially from 3% to 15% by weight relative to the total weight of said composition.
Pigments
According to a particular embodiment of the invention, the composition according to the invention also comprises at least one pigment.
The term “pigments” means white or colored, mineral or organic particles, which are insoluble in an aqueous medium, and which are intended to color and/or opacify the resulting composition and/or deposit. These pigments may be white or colored, and mineral and/or organic.
Preferably, the composition comprises at least 5% by weight of pigments, more preferentially from 5% to 40% by weight of pigments, in particular from 10% to 30% by weight and preferably from 10% to 20% by weight of pigments, relative to the total weight of said composition.
According to a particular embodiment, the pigments used according to the invention are chosen from mineral pigments.
The term “mineral pigment” refers to any pigment that satisfies the definition in Ullmann's encyclopedia in the chapter on inorganic pigments. Among the mineral pigments that are useful in the present invention, mention may be made of zirconium oxide or cerium oxide, and also zinc oxide, iron oxide (black, yellow or red) or chromium oxide, manganese violet, ultramarine blue, chromium hydrate and ferric blue, titanium dioxide, and metal powders, for instance aluminum powder or copper powder. The following mineral pigments may also be used: Ta2O5, Ti3O5, Ti2O3, TiO, ZrO2 as a mixture with TiO2, ZrO2, Nb2O5, CeO2, ZnS.
The size of the pigment that is useful in the context of the present invention is generally greater than 100 nm and may range up to 10 μm, preferably from 200 nm to 5 μm and more preferentially from 300 nm to 1 μm.
According to a particular form of the invention, the pigments have a size characterized by a D[50] greater than 100 nm and possibly ranging up to 10 μm, preferably from 200 nm to 5 μm and more preferentially from 300 nm to 1 μm.
The sizes are measured by static light scattering using a commercial MasterSizer 3000 particle size analyzer from Malvern, which makes it possible to determine the particle size distribution of all of the particles over a wide range which may extend from 0.01 μm to 1000 μm. The data are processed on the basis of the standard Mie scattering theory. This theory is the most suitable for size distributions ranging from submicron to multimicron; it allows an “effective” particle diameter to be determined. This theory is especially described in the publication by Van de Hulst, H. C., Light Scattering by Small Particles, Chapters 9 and 10, Wiley, New York, 1957.
D[50] represents the maximum size that 50% by volume of the particles have.
In the context of the present invention, the mineral pigments are more particularly chosen from iron oxides and/or titanium dioxides, and more preferentially iron oxide and/or titanium dioxide pigments coated with at least one lipophilic or hydrophobic compound.
Examples that may be mentioned more particularly include titanium dioxides and iron oxide coated with aluminum stearoyl glutamate, sold, for example, under the reference NAI® by the company Miyoshi Kasei.
As mineral pigments that may be used in the invention, mention may also be made of nacres.
The term “nacres” should be understood as meaning colored particles of any form, which may or may not be iridescent, especially produced by certain molluscs in their shell, or alternatively synthesized, and which have a color effect via optical interference.
The nacres may be chosen from nacreous pigments such as titanium mica coated with an iron oxide, titanium mica coated with bismuth oxychloride, titanium mica coated with chromium oxide, titanium mica coated with an organic dye and also nacreous pigments based on bismuth oxychloride. They may also be mica particles at the surface of which are superposed at least two successive layers of metal oxides and/or of organic colorants.
Examples of nacres that may also be mentioned include natural mica coated with titanium oxide, with iron oxide, with natural pigment or with bismuth oxychloride.

For the purposes of the invention, the term “stabilized” means lacking the effect of variability of the color with the angle of observation or in response to a temperature change.
For example, this material may be chosen from particles with a metallic tint, goniochromatic coloring agents, diffractive pigments, thermochromic agents, optical brighteners, and also fibers, in particular interference fibers.

Thus, with the Fe2O3/SiO2/Al/SiO2/Fe2O3 structure, the color changes from greenish gold to reddish grey for SiO2 layers of 320 to 350 nm; from red to gold for SiO2 layers of 380 to 400 nm; from violet to green for SiO2 layers of 410 to 420 nm; from copper to red for SiO2 layers of 430 to 440 nm.
As examples of pigments with a polymeric multilayer structure, mention may be made of those sold by the company 3M under the name Color Glitter®.
Examples of liquid-crystal goniochromatic particles that may be used include those sold by the company Chenix® and also the product sold under the name Helicone® HC by the company Wacker.
Hydrophobic Coated Pigments
Preferably, the compositions according to the invention comprise at least one pigment coated with at least one lipophilic or hydrophobic compound and especially as detailed below.
This type of pigment is particularly advantageous in so far as it may be considered in a large amount together with a large amount of water. What is more, in so far as they are treated with a hydrophobic compound, they show a predominant affinity for the oily gelled phase, which can then convey them.
Needless to say, the compositions according to the invention may in parallel contain uncoated pigments.
The coating may also comprise at least one additional non-lipophilic compound. For the purposes of the invention, the “coating” of a pigment according to the invention generally denotes the total or partial surface treatment of the pigment with a surface agent absorbed, adsorbed or grafted onto said pigment.
The surface-treated pigments may be prepared according to surface treatment techniques of chemical, electronic, mechanochemical or mechanical nature that are well known to those skilled in the art. Commercial products may also be used.
The surface agent may be absorbed, adsorbed or grafted onto the pigments by evaporation of solvent, chemical reaction and creation of a covalent bond.
According to one variant, the surface treatment is constituted of a coating of the pigments.
The coating may represent from 0.1% to 20% by weight and in particular from 0.5% to 5% by weight of the total weight of the coated pigment.
The coating may be realized, for example, by adsorption of a liquid surface agent onto the surface of the solid particles by simple mixing with stirring of the particles and of said surface agent, optionally with heating, prior to the incorporation of the particles into the other ingredients of the makeup or care composition.
The coating may be realized, for example, by chemical reaction of a surface agent with the surface of the solid pigment particles and creation of a covalent bond between the surface agent and the particles. This method is especially described in the U.S. Pat. No. 4,578,266.
The chemical surface treatment may consist in diluting the surface agent in a volatile solvent, dispersing the pigments in this mixture and then slowly evaporating off the volatile solvent, so that the surface agent is deposited at the surface of the pigments.
