Description

The present invention relates to a composition for dyeing keratin fibers, preferably human keratin fibers such as the hair.


More specifically, one subject of the present invention is a dye composition comprising at least one polysaccharide-type polymer, at least one fatty ether that is solid at room temperature and atmospheric pressure and at least one dye and/or dye precursor.


It likewise relates to a process for dyeing keratin fibers using such a composition and also to the use of the composition according to the invention.


Many people have sought for a long time to modify the color of their hair and in particular to mask their white hair.


It is notably known practice to dye keratin fibers, in particular human keratin fibers, with dye compositions containing oxidation dye precursors, which are generally known as oxidation bases. These oxidation bases are colorless or weakly colored compounds which, when combined with oxidizing products, may give rise to colored compounds via a process of oxidative condensation.


The shades obtained with these oxidation bases may be modified by combining them with couplers or color modifiers. The variety of molecules used as oxidation bases and couplers allows a wide range of colors to be obtained.


Another well-known method consists in obtaining “semipermanent” dyeing by applying to the keratin fibers direct dyes which are colored and coloring molecules that have an affinity for said fibers.


The direct dyes conventionally used are chosen from nitrobenzene, anthraquinone, nitropyridine, azo, xanthene, acridine, azine and triarylmethane direct dyes. The chemical species may be nonionic, anionic (acidic dyes) or cationic (basic dyes). The direct dyes may also be natural dyes.


Conventional direct dyeing processes consist in applying to the keratin fibers dye compositions comprising direct dyes. After application, a leave-on time is observed so as to allow the dye molecules to penetrate by diffusion into the fibers. On conclusion of the process, the fibers are rinsed.


In contrast with oxidation dyeing, these direct dyeing processes have a tendency to better protect the integrity of the fibers. The resulting colorings are generally chromatic, but are, however, only semi-temporary. The nature of the interactions that bind the direct dyes to the keratin fibers and their desorption from the surface and/or the core of the fiber are responsible for their weak dyeing power. It is thus possible to observe less favorable kinetics, a reduced intensity of the shade obtained, a worse homogeneity of the color from one fiber to the next and/or depending on the location on the fiber (root/tip), etc.


Thus, there is a real need to provide dye compositions that do not have the abovementioned drawbacks, i.e. which make it possible in particular to result in colorings that have good properties, notably in terms of chromaticity, power, intensity and selectivity, which are persistent with respect to shampoo washing and/or which do not impair the cosmetic properties of the keratin fibers.


Thus, one subject of the present invention is a composition comprising:

    • at least one polysaccharide-type polymer,
    • at least one fatty ether that is solid at room temperature and atmospheric pressure, of formula R—O—R′ wherein R and R′, which are identical or different, denote a linear or branched alkyl or alkenyl radical, R and R′ comprising at least 12 carbon atoms, and
    • at least one direct dye and/or one dye precursor.


Another subject of the invention is a process for dyeing keratin fibers, in particular human keratin fibers such as the hair, using such a composition.


Lastly, the invention relates to the use of the composition according to the invention for dyeing keratin fibers, in particular human keratin fibers such as the hair.


The composition according to the invention makes it possible to obtain powerful, chromatic and sparingly selective colorings, while giving the treated fibers good cosmetic properties, notably in terms of sheen and while limiting the degradation thereof.


The compositions in accordance with the present invention furthermore have a texture that is particularly well suited for use in dyeing the hair. Specifically they are unctuous, sufficiently thick and opacified or nacreous for an accurate, rapid and easy application, with good removal on rinsing, without leaving the hair greasy, without however running beyond the areas of the head of hair that it is desired to treat.


Other features and advantages of the invention will emerge more clearly on reading the description and the examples that follow.


For the purposes of the present invention and unless otherwise indicated:

    • for the purposes of the present invention, the term “direct dye” means colored species—natural and/or synthetic dyes—which are soluble in the cosmetic medium; these are dyes which will diffuse superficially on the keratin fibers;
    • for the purposes of the present invention, the term “dye precursor” means means any colorless molecule which, under the action of an oxidizing agent, gives a colored species which colors the keratin fibers; preferably these are oxidation dyes; and
    • the term “alkyl” means a linear or branched saturated hydrocarbon chain which comprises between 1 and 6 carbon atoms, and
    • the term “alkenyl” means a hydrocarbon chain comprising one or more conjugated or non-conjugated double bonds, which comprises between 2 and 6 carbon atoms, and
    • the expression “at least one” is equivalent to “one or more”; and
    • the limits of a range of values are included in that range, in particular in the expressions “between” and “ranging from . . . to . . . ”.

Compositions A1 and A2 are applied to locks of natural dry hair containing 90% white hair and to locks of permanent-waved dry hair containing 90% white hair in an amount of 5 g of composition per 1 g of hair.


After a leave-on time of 30 minutes on a hot plate at 33° C. under plastic wrap, the locks are rinsed with water then shampooed and dried.


Colorimetric Results:


The coloration of the hair is evaluated visually and read on a Minolta spectrocolorimeter (CM3600d, illuminant D65, angle 10°, SCI values) for the L*, a*, b* colorimetric measurements.


In this L*a*b* system, L* represents the intensity of the color, a* indicates the green/red color axis and b* indicates the blue/yellow color axis. The lower the value of L*, the darker or more intense the color. The higher the value of a*, the redder the shade, and the higher the value of b*, the yellower the shade.


Selectivity


The variation in coloration between the dyed locks of natural/permanent-waved hair is defined by (ΔE*) according to the following equation:





ΔE*=√{square root over ((L*−Lo*)2+(a*−ao*)2+(b*−bo*)2)}


In this equation, L*, a* and b* represent the values measured after dyeing locks of natural hair, and L0*, a0* and b0* represent the values measured on locks of permanent-waved hair.


The higher the value of ΔE, the greater the difference in color between the natural and permanent-waved locks. The locks of permanent-waved hair are representative of the tips of hair whereas the locks of natural hair are representative of the hair at the root. A low ΔE difference is representative of a more uniform coloring between the roots and the tips of the hair.


The results are given in the table below:

Homogeneous smooth and shiny cream gels that are very easy to apply and to rinse are obtained in the case of the compositions according to the invention (B1, C1) whereas in the case of the comparative composition B2 the presence of aggregates (inhomogeneous formula) is noted.


Compositions B1, B2, C1 and C2 are applied to locks of permanent-waved dry hair containing 90% white hair, with a bath ratio of 5 g of composition per 1 g of hair.


After a leave-on time of 30 minutes on a hot plate at 33° C. under plastic wrap, the locks are rinsed with water then shampooed and dried.


Colorimetric Results:


The coloration is evaluated as described in example 1.


The increase in coloration is represented by ΔE* in the table below which corresponds to the difference in coloration between the untreated locks and the dyed locks.


The variation in coloration between the dyed locks of permanent-waved white hair and the locks before treatment are defined by (ΔE*) according to the following equation:





ΔE*=√{square root over ((L*−Lo*)2+(a*−ao*)2+(b*−bo*)2)}


In this equation, L*, a* and b* represent the values measured after dyeing permanent-waved hair, and L0*, a0* and b0* represent the values measured on untreated permanent-waved hair.


The higher the value of ΔE, the greater the difference in color between the control locks and the dyed locks.


L* represents the lightness; the lower the value of L*, the more intense the coloring obtained.
