Description:
HYDROCOMPATIBLE LIPOPHILIZED MINERAL POWDER PIGMENT COMPOSITION FIELD OF INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to a composition comprising surface treated mineral particles and a cosmetic composition comprising the same. The invention particularly relates to a powder having a hydrophobic and a hydrophilic surface treatment, and a cosmetic composition comprising the powder; the cosmetic composition having a dry feeling of use, a satisfactory dispersibility in aqueous media while maintaining sebum resistance and advantageous sensorial properties. BACKGROUND OF INVENTION [0002] Friction, and oily skin secretions are external factors that deteriorate the durability of skin product pigment compositions. Since the surface of metal oxide pigments such as titanium or iron oxides, is hydrophilic, they tend not to adhere well to the skin and if used as such they tend to run off from the skin. Therefore, in order to improve their cosmetic durability, pigment compositions are surface treated with hydrophobic compositions in order to shield them with a hydrophobic coating. [0003] In order to impart hydrophobicity, the surface of the particles is treated so as to be more hydrophobe prior to their use by means of constituting a hydrophobic coating. Typical hydrophobic coatings that have been reported in the art encompass silicone-based surface coating compositions and coatings with amino acids substituted with fatty acids. However, such coated particles have poor cleanability with water due to their elevated water repellency. In addition, the coated particles tend to form particle aggregates, which are not easy to disperse during the manufacturing of cosmetic formulations or even on the skin thereby leading to a negative sensorial perception during their use. [0004] Furthermore, hydrophobically coated pigment particles cannot be formulated in stable water dispersions since their hydrophobic character leads them to phase out into a biphasic system. Thus, hydrophobically coated pigment particles can be formulated only in cosmetic emulsions. [0005] Consequently, there is a substantial need to supply a pigment composition that addresses the aforementioned shortcomings, in particular to supply pigment compositions that do not form aggregates on the skin or in the cosmetic formulations, that can be formulated in aqueous dispersions while maintaining satisfactory sensorial properties. [0006] The powder composition comprising composite particles according to the present invention maintains the lipophilic character of the particles towards the skin while maintaining its dispersibility in aqueous media thereby addressing the technical problems set above. Advantageously, the present composition enables ingredients that are readily available in the cosmetic market. SUMMARY [0007] The present invention relates to a powder composition comprising composite particles, that present an inorganic core, a hydrophobic coating composition and a hydrophilic coating composition, wherein the hydrophilic composition comprises from 20% to 60% of hydroxypropylmethylcellulose in weight relative to the total weight of the hydrophilic composition, typically in association with microcrystalline cellulose.

[0010] In some embodiments, the microcrystalline cellulose is in an amount ranging from 5% to 25% in weight relative to the total weight of the hydrophilic composition. [0011] In some embodiments, the hydrophilic coating composition further comprises from 15% to 40% in weight relative to the hydrophilic composition of an inorganic filler selected from the group consisting of magnesium carbonate, calcium carbonate, titanium dioxide, silica, silica beads, mica, talc, sericite, and mixtures thereof, preferably the inorganic filler is magnesium carbonate. [0012] In some embodiments, the hydrophilic composition comprises in weight relative to the total weight of the hydrophilic composition: − from 30% to 55%, preferably from 45% to 55%, of hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, − from 5% to 25%, preferably from 8% to 12%, of microcrystalline cellulose, and − from 15% to 40%, preferably from 25% to 35%, of magnesium carbonate. [0013] The hydrophilic composition may further comprise at least one triglyceride, hydroxypropylcellulose or mixtures thereof. [0014] Thus, in some embodiments, the hydrophilic composition comprises in weight relative to the total weight of the hydrophilic composition: − from 45% to 55%, of hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, − from 8% to 12%, of microcrystalline cellulose, − from 25% to 35%, of magnesium carbonate, − from 1% to 10%, of hydroxypropylcellulose, and − from 1% to 10%, of at least one triglyceride. [0015] According to some embodiments, the hydrophobic composition comprises: − at least one N-acylamino amino acid or a salt thereof, wherein the acyl is a C12-C18 acyl group, − at least a silicone surface agent, or − mixtures thereof. [0016] In some embodiments, the hydrophobic coating composition comprises at least one N-acylamino amino acid or a salt thereof, preferably selected from stearoyl glutamine, palmitoyl glutamine, myristoyl glutamine, sodium salts thereof, aluminum salts thereof or mixtures thereof. [0017] Regarding the inorganic core that is coated with the aforementioned hydrophobic and hydrophilic coating compositions, it can be selected from the group consisting of titanium dioxide, red iron oxide, yellow iron oxide, black iron oxide, mica, nacre, chromium oxide, ultramarine blue, ferric blue, manganese violet, zinc oxide, aluminum oxide, zirconium oxide, boron nitride, barium sulfate or mixtures thereof. [0018] The invention further relates to a cosmetic composition comprising the powder composition according to any one of the embodiments described hereinabove. [0019] In some embodiments, the cosmetic composition according to the invention can be selected from a sunscreen composition, a facial make-up composition, a cosmetic foundation composition or a hair make-up composition. [0020] Lastly, the invention relates to a process for preparing a powder composition of the invention, said process comprising the steps of: a. Supplying a hydrophobized inorganic powder composition comprising hydrophobized composite particles presenting an inorganic core and a coating of a hydrophobic composition, then b. Contacting the hydrophobized inorganic powder composition of step a) with a hydrophilic composition, wherein the hydrophilic composition comprises microcrystalline cellulose and from 20% to 60% of hydroxypropylmethylcellulose in weight relative to the total weight of the hydrophilic composition; then c. Optionally drying and/or grinding the composition obtained in step b), and d. Recovering the powder composition according to the invention.

Likewise, the black iron oxide pigment composition according to the invention presented a darker black tone compared to the black iron oxide pigment composition that was coated only with a hydrophobic composition. [0135] Furthermore, powder compositions 4% HPW-306W and 8% HPW- 306Y according to table 2 were subjected to a water affinity test. [0136] Powder compositions 4% HPW-306W and 8% HPW- 306Y were suspended into water followed by adding an equal volume of isononyl isononanoate thereby forming a biphasic system. [0137] After stirring and letting the biphasic system to set, it could be observed that both powders were retrieved in the lower water phase. After one month: - no significant migration to the oil phase could be observed for either of the 4% HPW-306W and 8% HPW- 306Y powders - both 4%HPW-306W and 8% HPW- 306Y powders presented some sedimentation in the water phase that was easily reconstituted by gentle shaking, and - no particle aggregates were observed. [0138] In view of the above, the powder composition according to the invention not only allows the improvement of the sensorial properties of skin-compatible hydrophobized pigment compositions but also paves the way to handling hydrophobized pigment particles in aqueous cosmetic compositions without the need to generate emulsions.
