The present invention relates to a stable emulsified skin external preparation containing a tocopherol glycinate derivative.
The invention also relates to a method for stabilizing an emulsified skin external preparation containing a tocopherol glycinate derivative.
Tocopherol (α-tocopherol, β-tocopherol, γ-tocopherol and δ-tocopherol) known as vitamin E and derivatives thereof such as tocopherol acetate and tocopherol nicotinate (hereinafter, the tocopherols) are known to produce effects such as antioxidation, biomembrane stabilization, immunostimulation and facilitation of blood circulation. They have been used in medicines, cosmetics and diets.
The present applicant has reported skin external preparations containing tocopherol glycinate and derivatives thereof based on the finding that among the tocopherols, the tocopherol glycinate and derivatives thereof have particularly excellent conversion efficiency into active tocopherol in skin tissues (JP-A-2004-2277 and JP-A-2004-2278).
However, formulating the tocopherol glycinate derivatives into emulsified skin external preparations has often resulted in changes in appearance such as viscosity reduction and separation during storage.

The emulsified skin external preparation contains the tocopherol glycinate derivative, at least one fatty acid ester selected from the glycerin mono fatty acid esters, polyglycerin fatty acid esters and dextrin fatty acid esters, and the additional components described above. Emulsified cosmetics are the most frequent form of emulsified skin external preparations.
The emulsified cosmetics are not particularly limited as long as they are used directly on skin, and examples thereof include milky lotions, sera, creams and gels. They may be used regardless of user's gender and age.
The emulsified cosmetic according to the present invention may contain existing cosmetic ingredients while still achieving the effects of the invention.
The existing cosmetic ingredients include those listed in the following documents: The Japanese Standards of Cosmetic Ingredients 2nd edition (edited by Society of Japanese Pharmacopoeia and published by Yakuji Nippo, Ltd. (1984)), The Japanese Cosmetic Ingredients Codex (edited by Ministry of Health and Welfare, Pharmaceutical Examination Division and published by Yakuji Nippo, Ltd. (1993)), Supplement to The Japanese Cosmetic Ingredients Codex (edited by Ministry of Health and Welfare, Pharmaceutical Examination Division and published by Yakuji Nippo, Ltd. (1993)), The Comprehensive Licensing Standards of Cosmetics by Category (edited by Ministry of Health and Welfare, Pharmaceutical Examination Division and published by Yakuji Nippo, Ltd. (1993)), The Japanese Cosmetic Ingredients Codex by Category (edited by Ministry of Health and Welfare, Pharmaceutical Examination Division and published by Yakuji Nippo, Ltd. (1997)), and Dictionary of Cosmetic Ingredients (Nikko Chemicals., Co. Ltd. (1991)).
The emulsified skin external preparation and emulsified cosmetic of the present invention may be produced by common methods depending on the formulations, for example by dissolving, mixing or dispersing the aforesaid ingredients in predetermined amounts.
The emulsified skin external preparation of the invention contains the tocopherol glycinate derivative in combination with at least one fatty acid ester selected from the glycerin mono fatty acid esters, polyglycerin fatty acid esters and dextrin fatty acid esters, whereby the viscosity reduction and separation during storage are prevented.
Specifically, the combined use of the tocopherol glycinate derivative and at least one fatty acid ester selected from the glycerin mono fatty acid esters, polyglycerin fatty acid esters and dextrin fatty acid esters stabilizes the skin external preparation containing the tocopherol glycinate derivative. This method for stabilizing the skin external preparation containing the tocopherol glycinate derivative is an aspect of the present invention.
Hereinbelow, the present invention will be described in greater detail by examples. However, it should be construed that the invention is not limited thereto.
The glycerin mono fatty acid esters used in Examples were glyceryl stearate, glyceryl isostearate, glyceryl laurate, glyceryl myristate, glyceryl oleate and glyceryl ricinoleate. The polyglycerin fatty acid esters used in Examples were poly (10) glyceryl monostearate, poly (10) glyceryl monoisostearate and poly (10) glyceryl myristate. The dextrin fatty acid esters used in Examples were dextrin stearate, dextrin palmitate and dextrin myristate. The glycerin used in Examples had a purity of at least 98% by mass. The storage stability was tested as follows.
The sample was placed in a glass bottle and was allowed to stand at 40° C. for a month. The state and appearance were visually observed. In addition, viscosity was measured before and after the test. Samples having no defect were evaluated as “AA” and samples having defects (such as separation and fluidization due to viscosity reduction) were evaluated as “BB”. The viscosity was measured with the E type viscometer (VISCONIC EHD manufactured by Tokyo Keiki Co., Ltd., rotor No. 4) using 1 g of the sample under the condition of 25° C. and 0.5 rpm.
The materials of component I were mixed together in the amounts shown in Table 1 at 80° C. and were dissolved. Separately, the materials of component II were mixed together in the amounts shown in Table 1 at 80° C. and were dissolved. The component II was added to the component I. The mixture was cooled with stirring and was emulsified. The emulsion was cooled to 30° C. to give a cream. The cream was tested for storage stability. The results are shown in Table 1, in which the values are % by mass except for the viscosity value.
As shown in Table 1, Examples 1 to 7 used glyceryl stearate, whilst Comparative Example 1 did not use glyceryl stearate and Comparative Example 2 replaced glyceryl stearate by stearic acid and potassium hydroxide. The creams of Examples 1 to 7 were shown to have superior storage stability to the creams of Comparative Examples 1 and 2.
Creams were prepared as described above using the materials in the amounts shown in Table 2. The creams were tested for storage stability. The results are shown in Table 2, in which the values are % by mass except for the viscosity value.
