Description
CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application is a National Phase filing under 35 U.S.C. § 371 of PCT/EP2011/064195 filed on Jul. 19, 2012; which in turn claims priority to Application No. PCT/EP2011/062522 filed on Jul. 21, 2011; the entire contents of all are hereby incorporated by reference.


THE NAMES OF THE PARTIES TO A JOINT RESEARCH AGREEMENT

The inventions disclosed and claimed herein were made pursuant to a Joint Development Agreement that was in effect on or before the time the claimed inventions were made, between L'ORÉAL and BASF SE.


The present invention relates to new cosmetic and/or dermatological compositions for a topical use, in particular intended for controlling the darkening of the skin and/or preventing the photo-aging of keratinic materials in particular the skin under exposure of UV radiations comprising in a physiologically acceptable medium at least one merocyanine derivative comprising specific polar groups consisting of hydroxyl- and ether-functionalities of formula (1) or (2) which will be detailed below.


It relates also to cosmetic and/or dermatological compositions comprising in a physiologically acceptable medium at least one merocyanine of formula (1) or (2) and further a system for screening out both UVA radiation and UVB radiation


It is known that light radiation with wavelengths between 280 nm and 400 nm permits tanning of the human epidermis and that rays with wavelengths between 280 and 320 nm, which are known as UV-B rays, harm the development of a natural tan. This exposure is also susceptible to also induce an alteration of the biomechanical properties of epidermis which is expressed by the appearance of wrinkles leading to a premature ageing of the skin.


It is also known that UV-A rays, with wavelengths between 320 and 400 nm, penetrate more deeply into the skin than the UV-B rays. UV-A rays promote an immediate and persistent darkening of the skin. A daily exposure to the UVA radiation, even in a short time, in normal conditions, can generate a degradation of the collagen fibers and elastin which is expressed by a modification of the skin micro-relief, the appearance of wrinkles and an irregular pigmentation (ie brown spots, unhomogeneity of the complexion . . . ).


A protection against UVA and UVB radiations is therefore necessary. An efficient photoprotective product must protect both UVA and UVB radiations.


Many photoprotective cosmetic compositions for the skin have been proposed to date. They contain generally organic UV filters and inorganic UV filters which work according to their own chemical nature and according to their own physical properties by absorption, reflexion or diffusion of the UV radiations. They generally contain combinations of organic oil-soluble UV filters and/or organic water-soluble UV filters associated to metal oxide pigments as titanium dioxide (TiO2).


Many cosmetic compositions intended for limiting the darkening of the skin, improving the colour and the homogeneity of the complexion have been proposed to date. In order to obtain such compositions, it is well-known for a skilled man in the field of suncare products to use UV filters in particular UVB filters. Certain compositions may further contain UVA filters. This filtering system has to cover the UVB protection in order to limit and control the neo-synthesis of melanin promoting the global pigmentation but also has to cover the UVA protection in order to limit and control the oxidation of already present melanins leading to a darkening of the skin color.


But no composition contains a particular combination of UV filters which is specifically adapted to the photoprotection of the skin and particularly to an improvement of the quality of the skin both at the level of the colour and of its elasticity mechanical properties.


In an advantageous way, this improvement is particularly visible on already pigmented skins in order not to increase the pigmentary load in melanin neither the structure of the melanin which is already present into the skin.


In fact, most of the organic UV screening agents are aromatic compounds absorbing in the zone between 280 nm and 370 nm. Besides their filtering power of the solar radiation, the desired photoprotecting compounds must also present good cosmetic properties, a good solubility in usual solvents and in particular in fatty substances as oils, greases and also a good photostability alone and in association with other UV filters. They must be also colorless or at least present a cosmetically acceptable colour for the consumer.


One of the major drawbacks of those compositions known until this day is that those filtering systems are insufficiently photoprotective against UV radiations and particularly against long UVA radiations with wavelengths beyond 370 nm in order to control the photo-induced pigmentation and its evolution by an appropriate UV filtering system covering the whole UV spectrum.


Amongst all the compounds which were recommended for this effect, we can mention the particularly interesting UV filters family which consists in carbonated merocyanine derivatives which is disclosed in the U.S. Pat. No. 4,195,999 or the application WO2004/006878. Those compounds present very good filtering properties in the long UVA rays but have a little satisfactory solubility in usual solvents and in particular in fatty substances as the oils and a not satisfactory photostability for certain families of merocyanines


Therefore, there is still a need for finding new merocyanine compounds active in the long UVA which present good cosmetic properties, a good solubility in cosmetic oily or aqueous solvents, a good compatibility with other complementary UVA filters as the dibenzoylmethane derivatives, specifically regarding photostability and also a cosmetically acceptable colour for the consumer.


However, after considerable research conducted in the field of photoprotection mentioned above, the Applicant has now discovered, surprisingly, that this objective could be reached with a new family of merocyanine derivatives comprising specific polar groups consisting of hydroxyl- and ether-functionalities and corresponding to the formula (1) or (2) which will be detailed below.


This discovery forms the basis of the present invention.


A first object of the present invention relates to a cosmetic and/or dermatological composition comprising in a physiologically acceptable medium at least one merocyanine derivative of formula (1) or (2) which will be detailed below.


Another object of the present invention related to a cosmetic and/or dermatological composition comprising in a physiologically acceptable medium at least one merocyanine of formula (1) or (2) and further a system for screening out both UVA radiation and UVB radiation


Another object of the present invention related to a cosmetic and/or dermatological composition comprising in a physiologically acceptable medium at least one merocyanine derivative of formula (1) or (2) and at least one dibenzoylmethane derivative.


A third object of the present invention relates to a cosmetic process for controlling and/or improving the darkening of the skin under exposure to UV radiation and the homogeneity of the colour of the complexion which comprises the application onto the skin of a cosmetic composition as above defined.


Another object of the present invention relates to a cosmetic process for protecting the keratinic materials and particularly the skin against photo-ageing which comprises the application onto the keratinic material of a cosmetic composition as above defined.


Other characteristics, aspects and advantages of the present invention will emerge on reading the detailed description that follows.


The term “physiologically 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 put the consumer off using this composition.


The term “keratinic materials” includes the skin, the scalp, the hair, eyelashes, eyebrows and nails.


In the rest of the present description, the expression “system for screening out both UVA radiation and UVB radiation” is intended to mean an agent for screening out UVA radiation with wavelengths between 320 and 400 nm and UVB radiation with wavelengths between 280 and 320 nm, constituted of either a mixture of several organic compounds and/or inorganic compounds for screening out said UV radiation, for example a mixture comprising a UVA screening agent and a UVB screening agent, or else an organic compound for screening out both UVA radiation and UVB radiation.


According to the present invention the merocyanine derivatives correspond to the following formula (1) or (2)

The additional organic UV-screening agents are preferably present in the compositions according to the invention in proportions ranging from 0.01% to 20% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition, and preferably ranging from 0.1% to 15% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition.


The additional mineral screening agents are chosen from coated or uncoated metal oxide pigments in which the mean size of the primary particles is preferentially between 5 nm and 100 nm (preferably between 10 nm and 50 nm), for instance titanium oxide (amorphous or crystallized in rutile and/or anatase form), iron oxide, zinc oxide, zirconium oxide or cerium oxide pigments, which are all UV-photoprotective agents that are well known per se.


The pigments may 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-based 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.


Such metal oxide pigments, coated or non coated are in particular disclosed in the patent application EP-A-0 518 773. As commercial pigments, we can mention the products sold by the companies Sachtleben, Tayca, Merck et Evonik.

The UV protection efficacy of these compositions has been evaluated.


Emulsification Protocol:


Aqueous and oil Phases A and B are prepared by mixing the raw materials under stirring at 80° C.; the obtained solutions are macroscopically homogeneous. Emulsions are prepared by slow introduction of the oil phase B1 in the aqueous phase under shearing using a rotor/stator Moritz homogenizer at the rotating speed of 4000 RPM during 15 minutes. The emulsion temperature is then decreased from 80° C. down to 40° C. under stirring. Oil phase B2 is then introduced in the emulsion under low shear. The emulsion is cooled down to room temperature under low shear. The emulsion is characterized by droplets which size is between 1 μm and 10 μm.


In vitro Evaluation protocol of UV protection efficacy The Persistant Pigmentation Darkening (PPD) is determined using the in vitro method described by B. L. Diffey in the paper J. Soc. Cosmet. Chem. 40, 127-133, (1989) for Sun Protection Factor (SPF). Measurements are carried out using a Labsphere UV-1000S spectrophotometer. Formulae are applied on a rough PPMA plate, to get a homogeneous film at the rate of 1 mg/cm2.

Protocol of Evaluation of the Photostabilty of the UV Filters


The percentage of residual amount of each UV filter (merocyanine compound and dibenzoylmethane compound) caused by the exposure to a solar simulator of a formula spread in a film having a thickness of about 20 μm was measure.


The evaluation was done by HPLC analysis of each UV filter in a solution after extraction of the film, by comparing exposed and non-exposed samples.


Material and Method:


Solar simulator: Apparatus Oriel 1000W equipped with a 4 pouces outlet, a 81017 filter and a dichroic mirror. The samples were exposed in horizontal position.


UV-Meter: Apparatus OSRAM CENTRA equipped with two reading heads, one for the UVA radiation and the other one for the UVB radiation.


The simulator and UV meter are together calibred annually by spectroradiometry.


Exposure measurements were done at the beginning and at the end of the exposure by positioning the reading heads at the position of the sample.


The UV exposure was characterized by:

    • a UVB flux of 0.35-0.45 mW/cm2
    • a UVA flux 16-18 mW/cm2.


Each residual amount of each UV filter was measured by HPLC chromatography with a sensor having diodes bars.


Each residual amount of each UV filter was measured by HPLC chromatography with a sensor having diodes bars.


Photostability Tests


About 20 mg of the composition are spread on the surface of a rough melt silica disc.


3 films of composition were exposed to the solar simulator and 3 other films were used as control.


The samples were exposed 3 per 3 to the light of the simulator during a sufficient time delivering an UVA dose of 42 J/cm2.


At the end of the exposure, the disc was introduced in a bowl of 600 ml with 10 ml of appropriate solvent (ie generally ethanol). The disc and the bowl were then placed during 5 minutes in an ultrasonic tank.


The solutions were then transferred in appropriate bottles compatibles with the HPLC chromotograph.

It was observed that, in the composition 9, the photostability of the merocyanine compound of the invention and the photostability of the dibenzoylmethane are both satisfactory.


Stability Tests for Compounds 15 and 25


The chemical stability of the compounds can be assessed in a water/ethanol solution 1/1 with compounds solubilized at 0.5%.


These solutions could be acidified to check also stability toward acid media for example HCl 0.1M in a water/ethanol/isopropanol 50/40/10 (v/v/v).


Once the solution prepared, it is placed in an oven at 45° C. for 2 months for stability and 1 h at 60° C. for acidic stress. Then the solution is aliquoted (0.005% w/v in H2O/ACN 50/50) for liquid chromatography analysis to check disappearance or not.
