Water-in-oil emulsion foundation

Description

[0001] The subject of the present invention is a fluid foundation cosmetic composition in the form of a water-in-oil emulsion comprising a silicone surfactant and coated pigments. The subject of the invention is also a method for applying make-up to the skin comprising the application of the foundation to the skin.

[0002] The foundation composition is a make-up composition for the skin of human beings. The composition according to the invention may be a foundation to be applied to the face or the neck, a concealer, a tinted cream or a make-up composition for the body.

[0003] Foundation compositions are commonly used to give an aesthetic colour to the skin, in particular to the face, but also to conceal skin imperfections such as redness and spots.

[0004] There are known from the document FR-A-2686510 fluid emulsions of water-in-oil foundation comprising, as surfactant, ABIL® WE 09 sold by the company Goldschmidt, which is a mixture of cetyl dimethicone copolyol, polyglyceryl-4 isostearate and hexyl laurate in a 40/30/30 weight ratio. However, it has been observed that the fluid emulsions prepared with this mixture are not stable over time: the emulsion, after storing for 4 months at room temperature (25° C.), can release oil at the surface of the composition and is therefore no longer homogeneous. Without prior stirring, the application for such a composition to the skin leaves a sensation of greasiness which damages the quality sought for the foundation, in particular the ease of application to the skin, the pleasant feel and the drying speed. The resistance of the mattness of the make-up is impaired, the make-up rapidly appearing glossy. The make-up thus obtained is not therefore aesthetic.

[0005] The aim of the present invention is to make available a foundation composition which has good stability after storing at room temperature (25° C.) for at least 4 months and which makes it possible to obtain a homogeneous make-up on the skin, which has satisfactory aesthetic qualities.

[0006] The inventors have discovered that such a foundation could be obtained using an alkyl dimethicone copolyol and polyglyceryl-4 isostearate in particular quantities or even after removing the latter compound from the composition, and also using hydrophobic coated pigments.

[0007] More precisely, the subject of the invention is a found in the form of a water-in-oil emulsion comprising a fatty phase, an aqueous phase, a C8-C22 alkyl dimethicone copolyol, at least 5% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition, of hydrophobic coated pigments, the composition being free of polyglyceryl-4 isostearate or containing polyglyceryl-4 isostearate in a quantity such that the weight ratio of the C8-C22 alkyl dimethicone copolyol to the polyglyceryl-4 isostearate is greater than or equal to 2.

[0008] The subject of the invention is also a cosmetic method for the non-therapeutic application of make-up to the skin which comprises the application to the skin of a composition as defined above.

[0009] The subject of the invention is also the use of a C8-C22 alkyl dimethicone copolyol in a foundation composition in the form of a water-in-oil emulsion containing at least 5% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition, of hydrophobic coated pigments, the composition being free of polyglyceryl-4 isostearate or containing polyglyceryl-4 isostearate in a quantity such that the weight ratio of the C8-C22 alkyl dimethicone copolyol to the polyglyceryl-4 isostearate is greater than or equal to 2, in order to obtain an emulsion which is stable and/or which is homogeneous and/or which can be easily applied to the skin, and/or in order to obtain a homogeneous application of make up to the skin.

[0010] The emulsion according to the invention has very good stability at room temperature (25° C.), in particular after a storage of 4 months or even better of 6 months, or even of 8 months. The foundation can be easily applied to the skin, with a sensation of unctuousness, softness and non-greasiness, it dries rapidly and spreads homogeneously on the skin. The make-up obtained exhibits good stability of the mattness over time.

[0011] The C8-C22 alkyl dimethicone copolyol present in the foundation according to the invention is an oxypropylenated and/or oxyethylenated polymethyl (C8-C22) alkyl dimethyl methyl siloxane.

[0012] The C8-C22 alkyl dimethicone copolyol is advantageously a compound of the following formula (I):

[0013] in which:

[0014] PE represents (—C2H4O)x—(C3H6O)y—R, R being chosen from a hydrogen atom and an alkyl radical of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, x ranging from 0 to 100 and y ranging from 0 to 80, x and y not being simultaneously 0
