Description

COSMETIC COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING VITAMIN B3 FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to topical cosmetic compositions containing crystalline cylindrical vitamin B3 compounds.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Niacin, also known as vitamin B3, is the common name for nicotinic acid. The physiologically active form of niacin is niacinamide, also a member of the family of vitamin B3 compounds. Niacin and niacinamide (nicotinic acid amide) function in the body as components of two coenzymes: nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP). Recently, these vitamin B3 compounds were used exclusively to treat niacin and pellagra deficiency. However, nowadays, vitamin B3 compounds have also found use in the area of active skin care. British Patent 1 370,236 discloses skin lightening compositions containing 0.5% to 10% niacin. In the same way, the patent of E.U.A. 4,096,240 describes the use of 0.1% to 10% niacinamide to lighten the skin. It has also been found that vitamin B3 compounds are useful for regulating the texture of human skin. See PCT application WO 97/39733, for Oblong et al. However, when applied to the skin in crystalline (i.e., powder) form, the vitamin B3 compounds tend to give a rough feeling to the skin. In the past, crystalline vitamin B3 compounds were solubilized in a polar solvent before application to the skin, destroying the crystalline structure and thus alleviating the rough sensation of the crystals. However, solubilization reduced the efficacy of the vitamin B3 compound at the time of contact with the skin. Thus, there is a need for cosmetic compositions comprising the non-solubilized crystalline vitamin B3 compound (s) which provides an improved skin feel that the consumer can sense. The present inventors have discovered that cosmetic formulations incorporating crystalline vitamin B3 compounds of a specific crystalline structure and an emollient improve the sensation perceived by the consumer of the vitamin B3 compound in the skin. The inventors of the present invention have further discovered that these compositions are especially useful for providing the benefits of vitamin B3 to the lips with improved skin feel when used in lipstick compositions including a solidifying agent. It is, therefore, an aspect of the present invention to provide cosmetic compositions, preferably anhydrous cosmetic compositions, which comprise selecting crystalline structured vitamin B3 compounds that improve the appearance and feel of the skin while alleviating the harsh feeling of the crystalline vitamin B3 compound. . Another aspect of the present invention is to provide anhydrous cosmetic compositions comprising vitamin B3 compounds of selected crystal structure that improve the feel of the vitamin B3 compound in the skin. These and other aspects will be readily apparent from the following detailed description.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to cosmetic compositions providing improved skin feel, containing from about 0.01% to about 50%, by weight, of the crystalline cylindrical vitamin B3 compound particles having a particle size distribution of so that at least about 70% of the crystalline particles have a height to width ratio greater than 1; from about 1% to about 90%, by weight, of an emollient; from about 1% to about 90%, by weight of a solidifying agent; and from about 1% to about 90%, on an anhydrous basis, of one color. Preferably the compositions are anhydrous. The compositions of the present invention are useful for improving the skin feel that is perceived by the consumer of crystalline cylindrical vitamin B3 compounds when applied to the skin. All percentages, parts and ratios are based on the total weight of the cosmetic compositions of the present invention, unless otherwise specified. All weights, while belonging to the aforementioned ingredients, are based on the active level and, therefore, do not include carriers or by-products that may be included in commercially available materials, unless otherwise specified.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION As used herein, the term "cosmetics" includes makeup, make-up base, and skin care products. The term "makeup" refers to the products that give color to the face, including base for makeup, dark and tanned, that is, mascara, eyeliners, eyebrow color, eye shadows, blushes, lip colors, etc. Skin care products are those that are used to treat or care for, or in some way moisturize, improve, or cleanse the skin. Products covered by the phrase "skin care products" include, but are not limited to, adhesives, bandages, toothpaste, anhydrous occlusive humectants, laundry detergents, fabric softening towels, patches which provide occlusive drugs, antiperspirant, deodorants, nail enamels, powders, fabrics, cloths, solid emulsion compact articles, anhydrous hair conditioners, and the like. The term "foundation for makeup" refers to liquids, cream, foam, powder, or similar products created or reintroduced by cosmetic companies to match the overall color of the skin. The base for makeup is made to work better on moisturized and / or oily skin.

The term includes the terms "consists of" and "consists essentially of".
ESSENTIAL COMPONENTS Vitamin B Compound The compositions of the present invention comprise a safe and effective amount of a natural or synthetic cylindrical crystalline vitamin B3 compound. The compositions of the present invention preferably comprise from above 0.01% to about 50%, more preferably from about 0.1% to about 30%, even more preferably from 0.5% to about 20%, more preferably from about 1% to about 10%. % of the vitamin B3 compound.
As used herein, "vitamin B3 compound" means a compound having the formula: wherein R is -CONH2 (for example, niacinamide), -COOH (for example, nicotinic acid) or -CH2OH (for example, nicotinyl alcohol), derivatives thereof and salts of any of the above. Examples of derivatives of these vitamin B3 compounds as used herein include vitamin B3 derivatives known in the art, such as nicotinic acid ethers, including non-vasodilating esters of nicotinic acid, nicotinic amino acids, acid nicotinyl alcohol esters carboxylic acids, and also nicotinic acid N-oxide and niacinamide N-oxide are included. Suitable nicotinic acid esters include nicotinic acid esters of C 1 -C 22, preferably C 1 -C 16, more preferably C 1 -C 2 alcohols. The alcohols are suitably straight chain or branched chain, cyclic or acyclic, saturated or unsaturated (including aromatic), and substituted or unsubstituted. The esters are preferably non-blushing. As used herein "non-blushing" means that the ester does not commonly produce a visible flow response after application to the skin of the target compositions (the majority of the general population does not experience a visible flow response, although said compounds can cause the swimming vasodium not visible to the exposed eye). Alternatively, a nicotinic acid material that is vasodilator in high doses can be used in a lower dose to reduce the vasodilator effect. Non-vasodilating esters of nicotinic acid include tocopherol nicotinate and inositol hexanicotinate. Other derivatives of the vitamin B3 compound are the niacinamide derivatives that result from the substitution of one or more of the hydrogens of the amide group. Non-limiting examples of niacinamide derivatives useful herein include nicotinyl amino acids, derived, for example, from the reaction of an activated nicotinic acid compound (e.g., nicotinic acid azide or nicotinyl chloride) with an amino acid, and nicotinyl alcohol esters of organic carboxylic acids (e.g., C? -C ? s). Specific examples of such derivatives include nicotinuric acid having the following chemical structures: nicotinuric acid: Examples of nicotinyl alcohol esters include nicotinyl alcohol esters of carboxylic acids, salicylic acid, acetic acid, glycolic acid, palmitic acid, and the like. Other non-limiting examples of the vitamin B3 compounds useful herein are 2-chloronicotinamide, 6-aminonicotinamide, 6-methylnicotinamide, n-methyl-nicotinamide, n, n-diethylnicotinamide, n- (hydroxymethyl) -nicotinamide, quinolinic acid, nicotinanilide, n-benzylnicotinamide, n-ethylnicotinamide, nifenazone, nicotinaldheido, isonicotinic acid, methylisonicotinic acid, thionicotinamide, nialamide, 1- (3-pyridylmethyl) urea, 2-mercaptonicotinic acid, nicomol, and niaprazine. Examples of the above vitamin B3 compounds are well known in the art and are commercially available from a number of sources, for example, the Sigma Chemical Company (St. Louis, MO); ICN Biomedicals, Inc. (Irvin, CA) and the Aldrich Chemical Company (Milwaukee, Wl). One or more vitamin B3 compounds can be used herein. Preferred compounds of vitamin B3 are nicotinic acid, niacinamide, tocopherol nicotinate, nicotinic acid N-oxide and niacinamide N-oxide. Niacinamide is the most preferred. The salts of the vitamin B3 compound are also useful herein. Non-limiting examples of salts of the vitamin B3 compound useful herein include organic or inorganic salts, such as inorganic salts with anionic inorganic species (eg, chloride, bromide, iodide, carbonate, preferably chloride), and carboxylic acid salts organic (including mono-, di- and tricarboxylic acid salts of C1-C18, for example, acetate, salicylate, glycolate, lactate, malate, citrate, preferably salts of monocarboxylic acid such as acetate). These and other salts of the vitamin B3 compound can be easily prepared by the person skilled in the art, for example, as described by W. Wenner, "The Reaction of L-Ascorbic and D-lsoascorbic Acid with Nicotinic Acid and Its Amide" , J. Organic Chemistry, Vol. 14, 22-26 (1949), which is incorporated herein by reference. Wenner describes the synthesis of the ascorbic acid salt of niacinamide. When used, the salts, derivatives, and derivatives of niacinamide salts are preferably those which have substantially the same efficacy as niacinamide in the skin condition regulation methods described herein. In a preferred embodiment, the ring nitrogen of the vitamin B3 compound is chemically free substantially (for example unbound and / or unimpeded), or after delivery to the skin chemically becomes substantially free ("chemically free"). "hereinafter referred to alternatively as" without complex "). More preferably, the vitamin B3 compound is essentially without complex. Therefore, if the composition contains the vitamin B3 compound in a salt or other form with complex, said complex preferably is substantially reversible, more preferably essentially reversible, in the delivery of the composition to the skin. For example, said complex must be substantially reversible at a pH of about 5.0 to about 6.0. Said reversibility can be easily determined by the person skilled in the art.
More preferably, the vitamin B3 compound is substantially free of complex in the composition prior to delivery to the skin. Examples of approaches to minimize or avoid the formation of undesirable complexes include the omission of materials whose form is substantially irreversible or other complexes with the vitamin B3 compound, pH adjustment, ionic strength adjustment, the use of surfactants, and formulations in where the vitamin B3 compound and materials whose complex therein is in different phases. Such approaches are within the skill level of the person skilled in the art.

Methods for determining solubility of vitamin B ^ compounds in emollients. The solubility of the vitamin B3 compound in the different non-polar emollients of the present invention can be determined as follows: l. Preparation of samples for analysis: 1) the emollient is placed in a pre-weighed bottle and then saturated with a vitamin B3 compound; 2) the bottle is shaken and allowed to settle in a bath at 30 ° C for 1 hour. A small stirring bar is used to stir the contents of the jar. If precipitation does not occur in the bottle, then more niacinamide is added. This is repeated until precipitation occurs. The sample is left in the bath for an additional 48 hours to ensure saturation; 3) the saturated emollient is extracted in a syringe; 4) a 0.45 micron filter (Gelman Acrodisc) is fitted at the end of the syringe and the emollient is filtered in a separate pre-weighed jar for analysis; 5) The emollient is analyzed using CLAR to determine the amount of niacinamide in it.
II. Analysis: Approximately, 0.25 g of the sample (sample weight) is weighed into a 15 mL plastic screw cap centrifuge tube. The sample is mixed with approximately 3 mL of 50/50 v / v methanol / chloroform and homogenized by swirl mixture. Then, approximately 7 mL of water is added to extract the vitamin B3 compound from the methanol / chloroform phase. Each sample is mixed by stirring 50 times in a forward and backward movement to facilitate transfer of the niacinamide from methanol / chloroform to the aqueous phase. This mixture creates an emulsion at the interface of the two phases. The emulsion can be dissipated by letting the sample sit for several hours or by brief centrifugation (15 seconds) at high speed. Once the two phases have completely separated, a pipette is used to cally transfer the aqueous phase into a separate, previously weighed bottle.
The weight of the aqueous phase (weight of aqueous phase) is noted. An aliquot of the aqueous phase is transferred to an analysis container and analyzed for niacinamide by HPLC (Waters 2690 Separation Module coupled with a Waters 996 PDA detector, both supplied by Waters Corporations). lll. Calculations: The percentage of vitamin B3 compound is determined by taking the concentration of vitamin B3 compound measured through CLAR and multiplying by the dilution factor. The dilution factor is the weight of the aqueous phase divided by the sample weight.

Once sufficient dispersion is achieved, the mixer speed is reduced, preferably to about 1,000 rpms, and the mixture is allowed to incorporate until it is uniform. The mixture is then poured into a suitable container and sealed for storage, preferably at room temperature. The long-lasting cosmetic composition is applied to the skin to provide color, moisture and improved skin feeling.
