DYE COMPOSITION COMPRISING A PARA-PHENYLENEDIAMINE OXIDATION BASE AND A PARTICULAR COUPLER

The present invention relates to a composition for dyeing keratin fibres using a specific para-phenylenediamine oxidation base and a particular coupler.

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

One of the dyeing methods is "permanent" or oxidation dyeing, which uses dye compositions containing oxidation dye precursors, generally known as oxidation bases. These oxidation bases are colourless or weakly coloured compounds, which, when combined with oxidizing products, may give rise to coloured compounds via a process of oxidative condensation.

It is also known that the shades obtained with these oxidation bases may be varied by combining them with couplers or colouring modifiers, the latter being chosen in particular from aromatic meta-diamines, meta-aminophenols, meta-diphenols and certain heterocyclic compounds such as indole compounds. The variety of the molecules used as oxidation bases and couplers allows a wide range of colours to be obtained.

Permanent dyeing processes thus consist in using, with the composition containing the dye precursors, an aqueous composition comprising at least one oxidizing agent, under alkaline pH conditions in the vast majority of cases. The role of this oxidizing agent is to at least partly degrade the melanin of the hair, which, depending on the nature of the oxidizing agent present, leads to more or less pronounced lightening of the fibres. The oxidizing agent used is generally hydrogen peroxide.

The basifying agent makes it possible to adjust the pH of the composition to an alkaline pH to enable activation of the oxidizing agent. In addition, this basifying agent causes swelling of the keratin fibre, with raising of the scales, which promotes the penetration of the oxidizing agent, and also of the dyes, if they are present, essentially oxidation dyes, into the fibre, and thus increases the efficacy of the dyeing or lightening reaction.

In the long term, the use of an oxidizing agent and an alkaline agent may lead to degradation of the keratin fibres and also to inconvenience at the time of use; in particular, ammonia may give rise to inconvenience to the user due to its strong characteristic odour. Moreover, not only may the user be inconvenienced by the odour, but he may also be confronted with greater risks of intolerance, for instance irritation of the scalp, which is in particular reflected by stinging.

It is also important to obtain intense colouring, which is resistant to external factors such as light, shampoos and sweat, and which is as uniform as possible along the entire fibre, irrespective of the level of damage of the keratin fibre.

Oxidation bases of the para-phenylenediamine type are commonly used in the field of hair dyeing. It is known practice, for example, to use 3-(2,5-diaminophenyl)-1 -propanol (or 2-Y-hydroxypropyl-para-phenylenediamine) in oxidation dyeing, in particular in document WO 80/00214. However, the dye compositions obtained using this oxidation base are not always satisfactory in particular for ensuring suitable coverage of grey hair with an acceptable colouring selectivity between the root and the end and/or sufficient fastness with respect to external attacking factors such as light, shampoos, bad weather, etc.

One of the objects of the present invention is to propose compositions for dyeing human keratin fibres such as the hair, which have superior dyeing properties relative to the existing compositions.

In particular, the composition according to the invention in the presence of a chemical oxidizing agent must make it possible to obtain colours that are satisfactory, in particular in terms of power, but also with sufficient uniformity of the colour from the end to the root of the hair, which makes it possible to avoid a "root" effect of the colouring.

Finally, it is also possible to obtain colourings that are very stable towards external agents.

Furthermore, the invention makes it possible to achieve substantial degrees of lightening while at the same time colouring, and does so without using oxidizing agents such as persalts or forcing the amount of chemical oxidizing agent or of basifying agent.

Moreover, the composition of the invention makes it possible to obtain formulations that are less malodorous during their application to the hair or during their preparation.

These aims and others are achieved by the present invention, one subject of which is thus a composition for dyeing keratin fibres, in particular human keratin fibres such as the hair, comprising:

^* Active material

At the time of use, each composition B' and B" is mixed with the oxidizing composition C of example 1 at a weight ratio of 1/1 . '

The resulting mixture are each applied on natural hair locks (BN), which represents the hair root, and permed hair locks (BP), which represents the hair tips, in an amount of 10 g of composition per 1 g of hair, and left for 35 minutes at room temperature (25°C).

Then the hair was rinsed with water, washed with the "Pro Classics concentrated" shampoo (L'Oreal Professionnel), diluted at 10%, and dried. Selectivity evaluation

The color of the hair was determined using the CIE L ^* a ^* b ^* system with a Minolta CM2006D spectrophotometer (illuminant D65, angle 10°, specular component included) in the CIELab system.

According to this system, L ^* indicates the lightness of the color of the hair.

The chromaticity coordinates are expressed by the parameters a ^* and b ^* , a ^* indicating the axis of red / green shades and b ^* the axis of yellow / blue shades.

The selectivity of the dyeing is measured by calculating the variation of ΔΕ according to the formula :

Δ Ε = ^(L* - L ₀ *) ² + (a* - a ₀ *) ² + (b* - b ₀ *) ²

In which L, a ^* and b ^* represent the values measured on medium sensibilized hair and L0 ^* , aO ^* and bO ^* represent the values measured on highly sensibilized hair.

The selectivity is represented by the difference of color between the colored natural hair and sensibilized hair : the more is the ΔΕ value, the more the difference of color between natural and sensibized hair is important, which is representative of the homogeneity of the coloration between the raw and the tips along the lock of hair .

The following results are obtained :

The mixtures B'+C according to the invention provide less selective colorations (lower ΔΕ value) than the mixture of compositions B"+C (comparative) : the difference between the raw and the tips is lower with B'+C than with B" + C : the coloration along the lock of hair is more homogenous with B'+C .
