Disclosed herein is a cosmetic composition comprising at least one anionic surfactant, at least one amphiphilic polymer chosen from branched block acrylic copolymers, and at least one conditioning agent chosen from cationic polymers. Further disclosed herein is a method for treating hair using such a composition.
Although a very large number of fixing polymers are known in the field of hair-styling, most of them may have, for example, a limited fixing power when they are used in rinse-out hair compositions such as shampoos or conditioners.
The very advantageous hair-styling properties of a group of amphiphilic, branched, block acrylic copolymers which have a structure wherein blocks of relatively hydrophilic acrylic monomers are attached to a block of acrylic monomers which is relatively more hydrophobic than the blocks which it carries have been recently discovered. These novel amphiphilic, branched, block copolymers are described in International Patent Application Nos. WO 00/40628 and WO 01/96429.
International Patent Application Nos. WO 00/40628 and WO 01/96429 describe the structure of these novel polymers and a method for preparing them and their use in the hair-styling field in the form of leave-in hair-styling compositions such as hair-styling lacquers and mousses in the form of aerosol compositions comprising organic solvents and propelling agents.
The inventor has discovered that the amphiphilic, branched, block acrylic copolymers disclosed in the above-mentioned International patent applications could also be used in rinse-out compositions if they were combined with at least one cationic polymer and with at least one anionic surfactant.
Indeed, the introduction, into at least one anionic surfactant base, of the combination of at least one cationic polymer and at least one amphiphilic polymer chosen from branched, block copolymers as described below can give rise to shampoos which have excellent hair-styling properties and which can confer good cosmetic properties on the hair, for example, sleekness and gloss.
The good results obtained with the combination of the polymers disclosed herein were not predictable because the use of cationic polymers in combination with anionic polymers in a surfactant base to provide a hair-styling effect has, up until now, not allowed satisfactory cosmetic properties to be obtained, for example, hair sleekness and gloss.
The compositions disclosed herein may also, for example, be used on the skin. They then make it possible to obtain very good conditioning properties.
Disclosed herein is a cosmetic composition comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable medium,
Also disclosed herein is a method for treating a keratinous material comprising applying to the keratinous material the composition disclosed herein and, after an optional exposure time, rinsing the keratinous material.
The exposure time for the composition may range, for example, from 0 seconds to 30 minutes.
The at least one amphiphilic polymer chosen from branched block copolymers disclosed herein and its preparation are disclosed in International Patent Application Nos. WO 00/40628 and WO 01/96429, which are incorporated herein by reference.
The at least one amphiphilic polymer may comprise, for example, a macromolecular structure wherein at least one relatively hydrophilic sequence, comprising at least one anionic monomer, is attached via the at least one polyfunctional unit (for example at least one unit comprising at least two polymerizable carbon-carbon double bonds) to at least one relatively more hydrophobic block.
The at least one amphiphilic polymer is obtained by a method of polymerization in two stages: in a first stage, monomers or a mixture of monomers, which are relatively hydrophobic, are polymerized in the presence of at least one polyfunctional comonomer comprising at least two polymerizable functional groups having different reactivities. In this first stage, the hydrophobic monomers polymerize by reacting with the most reactive functional group of the at least one polyfunctional comonomer so as to form a copolymer chain comprising a certain number of polymerizable groups corresponding to less reactive groups of the at least one polyfunctional comonomer. In a second stage, the copolymer chain comprising the polymerizable groups, which is obtained in the first stage, is reacted with monomers or a mixture of monomers, which are relatively more hydrophilic, of which a certain fraction comprises carboxylic acid groups. These relatively more hydrophilic monomers polymerize by reacting with the polymerizable groups of the hydrophobic copolymer chain so as to form relatively more hydrophilic blocks, attached in the form of branches to this first copolymer chain.
As explained in International Patent Application Nos. WO 00/40628 and WO 01/96429, the sequences forming these branched acrylic copolymers do not only differ in their more or less hydrophobic character, but also in their glass transition temperatures. Indeed, the relatively more hydrophilic sequences are so-called “hard” sequences because they have a glass transition temperature greater than room temperature (defined herein as 20° C.), whereas the relatively more hydrophobic sequences are so-called “soft” sequences because they have a glass transition temperature which is well below room temperature.
The block character of the at least one amphiphilic polymer used herein consequently manifests itself by the existence of at least two glass transition temperatures (Tg), at least one Tg being greater and at least one other Tg being less than room temperature (20° C.).
The relatively more hydrophobic blocks of the at least one amphiphilic polymer may have, for example, a weight-average molecular mass ranging from 10 000 to 100 000, and the relatively more hydrophilic blocks of the at least one amphiphilic polymer may have a weight-average molecular mass, for example, ranging from 1000 to 100 000.
Each of the monomers forming the at least one polyfunctional unit (c), for example, comprises at least two polymerizable functional groups which have a different reactivity from each other. This difference in reactivity makes it possible to polymerize, in a first instance, only the most reactive functional groups and to preserve the less reactive functional groups which will serve, in a second instance, for the attachment of the relatively more hydrophilic sequence.
For example, the at least two polymerizable functional groups may be chosen, for example, from, vinyl, allyl, acryloyl and methacryloyl groups, the latter two having a considerably higher reactivity than the former.
For example, the at least one polyfunctional unit (c) may be derived, for example, from at least one monomer of the following formula:
wherein
For example, the at least one polyfunctional unit (c) may be derived from at least one monomer chosen from allyl methacrylate, allyl acrylate, vinyl methacrylate, vinyl acrylate, vinylacrylamide, vinylmethacrylamide, allylmethacrylamide, allylacrylamide. In one embodiment, the at least one polyfunctional unit (c) is derived from allyl methacrylate.
In one embodiment, the at least one amphiphilic polymer consists essentially of the units (a), (b) and (c) as described above.
The proportions of the units (a), (b) and (c) in the at least one amphiphilic polymer are, for example:
In one embodiment, the at least one amphiphilic polymer consists essentially of:
For example, the copolymer FIXATE® G100 by the company NOVEON may be used.
The compositions disclosed herein may, for example, comprise from 0.01 to 10% by weight, for example, from 0.1 to 5% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition, of the at least one amphiphilic polymer.
The composition disclosed herein further comprises, in addition to the at least one amphiphilic polymer described above, at least one cationic polymer.
The expression “at least one cationic polymer” means any polymer comprising cationic groups and/or groups which can be ionized into cationic groups.
The at least one cationic polymer is chosen from all those already known per se for their capacity to improve the cosmetic properties of hair treated with detergent compositions. For example, those described in patent applications EP 0 337 354, FR 2 270 846, FR 2 383 660, FR 2 598 611, FR 2 470 596 and FR 2 519 863 may be used.
For example, the at least one cationic polymer can be chosen from those comprising units comprising at least one amine group chosen from primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary amine groups which may either form part of the principal polymer chain, or which may be carried by a side functional group directly linked to the principal polymer chain.
The at least one cationic polymer may be chosen, for example, from polymers of the polyamine, polyaminoamide and poly(quaternary ammonium) type. These polymers are known in the art.
The polymers of the polyamine, polyaminoamide and poly(quaternary ammonium) type, which can be used in the composition disclosed herein, are those described in French Patent Nos. 2 505 348 and 2 542 997. For example, these polymers can be chosen from the following families of polymers:
