FATTY SUBSTANCE
A subject of the invention is a composition the caring for keratin fibres intended for the cosmetic treatment of keratin fibres and in particular the conditioning of keratin fibres, in particular in terms of disentangling, straightening, combability and manageability of keratin fibres. Another subject-matter of the invention is the use of such a composition for conditioning keratin fibres.
It is well known that human keratin fibres, corresponding in particular to the hair, the eyebrows, the eyelashes, beard hairs, moustache hairs or pubic hairs, can be sensitized, in particular damaged and/or embrittled, to various degrees, under the action of atmospheric agents or under the action of mechanical and/or chemical treatments, such as cleansing, styling, cutting, dyeing, bleaching or permanent-waving. These keratin fibres then become difficult to disentangle and to style, and also lack suppleness and softness.
Compositions containing fatty substances as conditioning agents have already been proposed for the treatment of keratin fibres and in particular the hair, the beard or the moustache.
However, such compositions generally comprise high contents of plant oils, which have the drawback of developing an unpleasant odour as they become oxidized in contact with the air.
It has already been proposed to replace said plant oils with synthetic oils, but the resulting compositions do not yet have the desired cosmetic qualities, in particular in terms of sensory properties, in particular of feel of the keratin fibres after treatment. It in particular appears that the known compositions leave a tacky feeling which detrimentally modifies the feel and/or the styling of these keratin fibres even after drying.
It is therefore of great interest to find compositions for caring for keratin fibres which make it possible to improve the straightening, disentangling, combability and manageability of keratin fibres such as the hair, beard hairs or moustache hairs; to facilitate their shaping and to make the feel of the keratin fibres more pleasant and fluid.
This technical problem is solved with the present invention, a subject of which is a composition comprising: a) a) from 5% to 30% polybutene by weight relative to the total weight of the composition;
b) at least one first non-silicone liquid fatty substance; and
c) at least one second non-silicone liquid fatty substance, different from b), wherein said composition comprises less than 5% by weight of plant oil, relative to the total weight of the composition.
In one particular embodiment, the polybutene is present in the composition according to the invention in a content ranging from 7% to 20% by weight, and preferably from 8% to 15% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.
In one particular embodiment, said at least one first non-silicone liquid fatty substance is chosen from esters derived from a fatty acid, in particular a C6-C32 fatty acid, and/or from a fatty alcohol, in particular a C6-C32 fatty alcohol; ethers of C6-C20, preferably C 6 -C 12 , and even more preferentially Cs-Cio fatty alcohols; C6-C12 glycerol ethers; and Guerbet alcohols or derivatives of the latter. It is preferably chosen from liquid esters of saturated or unsaturated, linear or branched, C1-C26 aliphatic monoacids or polyacids and of saturated or unsaturated, linear or branched, C1-C26 aliphatic monoalcohols or polyalcohols, the total number of carbon atoms in the esters being greater than or equal to 10; preferably from monoesters of monoacids and of monoalcohols; and more preferentially from ethyl and isopropyl palmitates. Said first liquid fatty substance is present in a content ranging from 10% to 80% by weight and preferably from 55% to 70%) by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition. In one particular embodiment, said at least one second liquid fatty substance is chosen from natural or synthetic esters of mono-, di- or triacids with glycerol or mixture thereof, and preferably chosen from caprylic/capric acid triglycerides. It is present in a total content ranging from 10% to 60% by weight and preferably from 15% to 25% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.
In one particular embodiment, the composition according to the invention also comprises at least one liquid polar solvent, preferably at least one alkanol and more preferably ethyl alcohol. Said liquid polar solvent is preferably present in a content ranging from 2% to 20% and preferably from 2.5% to 7.5% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.
The composition according to the invention is preferably characterized in that it is anhydrous, that it does not comprise plant oils, and/or that it does not contain silicone compounds.
The present invention also relates to the use of a composition according to the invention for conditioning keratin fibres, and in particular in terms of disentangling, straightening, combability and manageability of keratin fibres, and more particularly keratin fibres chosen from the hair, eyelashes, eyebrows, beard hairs, moustache hairs and pubic hairs. Preferably, the composition according to the invention is used for conditioning beard and/or moustache hairs.
The present invention also relates to a process for conditioning keratin fibres, by treatment or application to said keratin fibres of a composition according to the invention.
DESCRIPTION
For the purposes of the present invention, the term "keratin fibres" is intended to mean in particular human keratin fibres, and more particularly the hair, body hairs, in particular beard and/or moustache hairs, eyelashes, eyebrows and pubic hairs. POLYBUTENE
The composition according to the invention comprises polybutene.
The polybutene used in a composition according to the invention is preferably likened to a nonvolatile liquid fatty substance. The term "liquid fatty substance" is intended to mean an organic compound which is water- insoluble at ambient temperature of 25°C and at atmospheric pressure, but which is in liquid form under these temperature and atmospheric pressure conditions. The liquid fatty substances according to the invention preferably have a viscosity of less than or equal to 2 Pa.s, better still less than or equal to 1 Pa.s and even better still less than or equal to 0.1 Pa.s at 25°C and at a shear rate of 1 s-1.
The term "non- volatile liquid fatty substance" is intended to mean a liquid fatty substance which remains on the keratin fibre at ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure. More precisely, a non- volatile liquid fatty substance has an evaporation rate strictly less than 0.01 mg/cm2/min. To measure this evaporation rate, 15 g of volatile liquid fatty substance or mixture of volatile liquid fatty substances to be tested are placed in a crystallizing dish 7 cm in diameter, placed on a balance that is in a large chamber of about 0.3 m 3 which is temperature-regulated, at a temperature of 25°C, and hygrometry-regulated, at a relative humidity of 50%. The liquid is allowed to evaporate freely, without stirring it, while providing ventilation by means of a fan (Papst-Motoren, reference 8550 N, rotating at 2,700 rpm) placed in a vertical position above the crystallizing dish containing said liquid fatty substance or said mixture, the blades being directed towards the crystallizing dish, 20 cm away from the bottom of the crystallizing dish. The weight of of liquid fatty substance remaining in the crystallizing dish is measured at regular intervals. The evaporation rates are expressed in mg of liquid fatty substance evaporated per unit of surface area (cm 2 ) and per unit of time (minutes).

These additives may be present in the composition according to the invention in an amount ranging from 0 to 20% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition.
Those skilled in the art will take care to select these optional additives and the amounts thereof so that they do not harm the properties of the compositions of the present invention. Needless to say, the composition of the invention should be cosmetically or
dermatologically acceptable, i.e., it should contain a non-toxic physiologically acceptable medium and should be able to be applied to the keratin fibers, and more particularly to those of human beings. For the purposes of the invention, the expression "cosmetically acceptable" means a composition of pleasant appearance, odor, feel and/or taste. In a particular embodiment, compositions according the invention are cosmetic and/or non-therapeutic compositions.
EXAMPLES
Example 1
The following compositions are prepared (% by weight of active material):
(1) 70/30 C8-C10 Triglycerides (DBU MCT 7030) sold by Stearineries Dubois
(2) Tinogard TT sold by BASF
^ Isopropyl palmitate sold by BASF
(4) Indopol H 1500 sold by Ineos
The compositions are prepared according to the following method: the components are mixed with regular Rayneri stirring. The mixture is brought to a temperature below 50°C in order to improve and accelerate the dispersion of the polybutene.
Compositions A and B are then tested under the same conditions, in order to evaluate their cosmetic properties, after the first application, then after 10 days of application. The sensory evaluations were carried out on two panels of men according to the following protocol:
For each formula, the tests were conducted on a panel of 60 individuals, corresponding to men 18 to 60 years old, representative of all types of facial skin, 50% of whom had sensitive skin. The individuals had a beard at least 1 cm in length, and combed their beard either with their fingers or with a comb. At least 50% of the subjects of the panel had a slightly fizzy beard.
Composition A or B was applied to the beard at least once a day, for a total period of 21 days. The application was carried out on dry beard: the composition is placed in the palm of a hand, both hands are rubbed together, and are then applied to the beard. The beard is then combed with the fingers or with a comb.
The cosmetic properties of the beard are evaluated by the subjects at given time intervals during the study, using a 5-point value scale ("agree" - "relatively agree" - "neither agree nor do not agree" - "relatively do not agree" - "do not agree"). The values indicated in the table correspond to the proportion measured, in the panel in question, of the accumulation of "agree" and "relatively agree" responses.
The results of the tests carried out show that composition A according to the invention results in an improvement in the softness of the beard immediately after the first application, and even more significantly after 10 days of use, in comparison with a composition not containing any polybutene.
These results also show that the composition according to the invention reduces the feeling of tackiness between the hairs and of the beard as a whole, immediately after the first application and more significantly after 10 days of use.
Finally, the composition according to the invention also results in an improvement in other cosmetic properties of the beard, for instance a decrease in the frizzy appearance of the beard.
