Description
The present invention relates to a new cosmetic composition for imparting to human skin a coloration essentially comparable to a natural tan.
As is known, natural tanning of human skin is due to melanization resulting from exposure of the skin to light rays having a wave length between 280 and 400 millimicrons. However, this exposure which is necessary to obtain a tan appearance of the skin very often, and especially when the exposure is for a long period of time, can cause not only very painful burns but also for those with sensitive skin, long term skin problems, and for many very unesthetic peeling of the skin.
To avoid these disadvantages, it is possible to apply to the skin compositions containing a more or less selective solar filter. However, if these compositions are successful in avoiding solar burns, they generally also retard by reason of their very nature, the production of the desired tan appearance. This often prompts persons who desire a rapid tanning not to use these compositions thereby risking encountering the above mentioned disadvantages.
Heretofore, it has also been proposed to use compositions for imparting to the skin an artificial tan appearance. A particular composition of this type is one which is based on dihydroxy acetone, disclosed for instance in French Pat. No. 1,250,185. The tan obtained through the use of dihydroxy acetone results from a reaction between the active product and the protein components of the skin, independently of an exposure to the sun.
The use of such compositions, however, has several drawbacks in achieving an artificial tan which resembles as much as possible a natural tan.
In effect, because of the mechanism at the outset, very often after successive applications different shades result depending on the amount of callous skin treated. Further, the coloration obtained is irregularly removed by washing which also leads to undesired shade variations.
Moreover the production of a skin coloration which is independent of exposure to sunlight accentuates for many the artificiality of the tan. Thus, even though many people may deisre to get tanned rapidly, nonetheless they generally desire that the tanning be effected as naturally as possible, that is to say, by exposure to the sun.
It has now been found that by applying to the skin a composition containing at least one pyridine derivative a coloration essentially similar to a natural tan can be achieved in less time than is required to obtain a natural tan after exposure of the thus treated skin to ultra-violet rays having a wave length between 320 and 400 millimicrons.
It has also been found that this coloration does not result from a reaction of the active product with the protein components of the skin. The tan coloration achieved is uniform; it covers completely the areas of the skin exposed to the sun rays and it is removed in a regular manner with washing.
The compounds employed in the composition of the present invention also do not react with solar filters conventionally employed in this type of composition. Therefore, these compounds can be used in combination with these known solar filters, thus providing not only protection for the skin but also a rapid tanning of the skin.
It is therefore a principal object of the present invention to provide a cosmetic composition for imparting to human skin a coloration essentially identical to a natural tan, after exposure of the skin to radiation having a wave length between 320 and 400 millimicrons, said composition containing at least one pyridine derivative.
Another object of the present invention is the provision of a process for coloring the skin by the action of ultra violet rays.
The composition according to the present invention comprises a cosmetic vehicle for topical application to the skin and an effective amount of at least one pyridine derivative having the formula: ##STR2## wherein:

The surfactant is present preferably in an amount from 1 to 25 and, preferably, from 1 to 10 weight percent; the gel forming agent, in an amount from 0.5 to 5, and preferably from 1 to 2.5 weight percent; and the silicone oil, in an amount up to 2 weight percent and preferably 0.1 weight percent, based on the total weight of the composition.
In a particularly preferred emboiment of the invention, the composition is provided in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion. This emulsion contains a surfactant, an oil, a thickening agent and a humectant. The surfactant which is present, preferably in an amount from 2 to 20, and more preferably, from 10 to 16 weight percent, is selected from such emulsifying agents as a fatty alcohol having 12-18 carbon atoms and oxyethylenated with 10-15 moles of ethylene oxide; isopropyl palmitate; isopropyl myristate; glycerol monostearate; polyoxyethylenated sorbitan monostearate; a self-emulsifying wax selected from partially sulfated or partially oxyethylenated cetyl-stearyl alcohols; and a mixture of these emulsifying agents or waxes. The oil or fatty phase of this emulsion is present in an amount between 10 and 50 weight percent and can be a light petrolatum oil; perhydrosqualene; a vegetable oil such as sweet almond oil, ricin oil, colza oil, olive oil, peanut oil, coconut oil and palm oil; a fatty alcohol having for example 7 carbon atoms and a saturated fatty acid having, for example, 18 carbon atoms.

Representative adjuvants include principally perfumes, preservatives, softening agents, super-fatting agents, emollients, anti-foam agents and the like.
The pH of the composition of the present invention can be adjusted by the addition thereto of an acid such as acetic acid, or citric acid, or a base, such as monoethanolamine or triethanolamine.
The composition according to the present invention can also contain a solar filter so as to protect the skin against harmful radiations.

The cosmetic composition of this invention is stored out of contact with light and is perfectly stable.
The process for coloring the skin in accordance with the present invention comprises applying to the skin the composition defined above using any procedure so as to obtain a uniform distribution of the composition on the skin and exposing the thus treated skin to light rays having a wave length of 320 to 400 millimicrons. After a period of time which is clearly shorter than would be necessary to obtain a natural tan, a skin coloration, essentially comparable to the said natural tan, is obtained. This process also makes it possible to modulate, over a period of time, the appearance of this coloration by the addition to the composition of a solar filter as defined above. The appearance of the coloration if it is delayed by the inclusion of a solar filter nonetheless is effected quite rapidly relative to the exposure time required to obtain a natural tan and without producing a sunburn.
The pyridine derivatives employed in the composition of the present invention are known and can be prepared in accordance with procedures described in the literature, including the acetylation of an amino-pyridine, followed by oxidation of the resulting acetylamino pyridine and subsequent hydrolysis of the resulting acetamino pyridine N-oxide to provide amino pyridine N-oxide.
The pyridine derivatives can be prepared more particularly in accordance with the following process:
A--Preparation of acetylamino pyridine.
0.1 mole of amino pyridine is dissolved in 10 cc of acetic acid. To the resulting solution there is added with agitation 0.15 mole of acetic anhydride. The mixture is then heated at reflux for 3 hours at which time the acetic acid and acetic anhydride are distilled under reduced pressure. The resulting syrup crystallizes on cooling.
B--Preparation of acetylamino pyridine N-oxide.
0.1 mole of crude acetylamino pyridine is added, with agitation, to 20 cc of a 40% solution of peracetic acid in acetic acid. The mixture is heated for 4 hours at 70.degree. C. and then evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure. Acetylamino pyridine N-oxide crystallizes on cooling.
C--Preparation of amino pyridine N-oxide.
A solution of 0.1 mole of acetylamino pyridine N-oxide in 50 cc of 5 N HCl is heated at reflux for two hours. The solvent is distilled under reduced pressure and the crystalline mass thus obtained is pasted in 50-100 cc of acetone. The resulting amino pyridine N-oxide hydrochloride is then filtered, washed with acetone and recrystallized.
The following non-limiting examples are given to illustrate the invention. Unless otherwise specified, all parts and percentages are by weight.
Example 1--Nonionic-Based Emulsion
Nonionic emulsions are prepared and contain:
(a) 10-18% of an emulsifying agent comprising Sipol wax (mixture of stearyl alcohol and oleo-cetyl alcohol oxyethylenated with 25 moles of ethylene oxide), glycerol monostearate and cetyl alcohol;
(b) 10-20% of an oil comprising a silicone oil, sold under the mark RHODORSIL 47 V 300, which is a dimethylpolysiloxane having a viscosity of 300 cp at 25.degree. C., a flash point of 320.degree. C., a density at 20.degree. C. of 0.95-0.97, and petrolatum oil-Codex;
(c) 1-20 percent of a humectant comprising glycerine;
(d) 0-1% perfume;
(e) 1-5% of the pyridine derivative of formula (I); and
(f) water, sufficient for 100%.
The pH of this composition is between 5 and 6 and is stored in a bottle out of contact with light.
This composition is applied to the skin or on an inert support using conventional spreading means.
This procedure imparts to the skin a coloration resembling a natural tan after an exposure to light rays as defined above, for a period ranging from 5 to 30 minutes. In order to provide a more objective evaluation of the results, which are not influenced by the nature or the initial appearance of the human skin, or by the solar illumination which can be variable, most of the following tests have been carried out using an inert support.
A specific composition of this invention in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion is prepared by admixing the following components:
This composition which had been stored out of contact with light for several days was applied to the skin. After exposure of the thus treated skin to the bright midday sun, for a period of 10-20 minutes, a coloration similar to a natural tan developed on the skin.
The application of this same composition to an inert support comprising a glass plate also provided after an exposure of about 10-20 minutes to ultra violet rays a brown coloration resembling that of a natural tan.
Using essentially the same composition but replacing a portion of the petrolatum oil-CODEX with 1.5 g of benzylidene camphor, there resulted on the inert support, a deepening of the color identical to that previously obtained, at the end of 15-25 minutes.
By replacing the 2-amino pyridine N-oxide hydrochloride with another photo-dye responding to formula I, results set forth in Table I were achieved. These tests have been carried out as mentioned above on an inert support to provide a more objective reference. However, the color developed on the inert support is essentially the same natural tan coloration achieved when the same composition is applied to human skin.
Similar results are obtained by varying the amount of the different components of the composition within said ranges specified above.
The pH of these compositions varies with the photo-dye added. The pH is, for example, equal to 4 for the composition given in Table I and containing 2.5 wt.percent of 2-amino pyridine N-oxide hydrochloride.
Example 2--Ionic-Based Emulsion
Ionic-based emulsions are prepared and contain:
(a) 10-16% of an emulsifying agent comprising self-emulsifiable glycerine monostearate (sold under the mark ARLACEL 165), sorbitan monostearate polyoxyethylenated with 60 moles of ethylene oxide (sold under the mark TWEEN 60), stearic acid (triple pressure) and cetyl alcohol;
(b) 35-50% of an oil comprising petrolatum oil-CODEX;
(c) 0-1% triethanolamine;
(d) 0-1% perfume;
(e) 1-5% of the pyridine derivative of formula (I); and
(f) water sufficient for 100%.
The pH of these compositions is adjusted to 7.
As in Example 1, the ionic-based emulsion is applied to the skin or onto the same inert support. As before, at the end of a period ranging from 10 minutes to 20 minutes, the appearance of a coloration essentially the same as that obtained using the same compound in Example 1 is achieved.
Using an emulsion having the following composition:
a brown coloration, on normal skin after a 20 minute exposure to the bright midday sun is achieved, this coloration being essentially the same as a natural tan.
The use of a solar filter and/or another pyridine derivative of Formula (I) in various other compositions provides those results set forth in Table II. The tests leading to these results have been carried out, as before, on an inert support.
Similar results are obtained by varying the amount and nature of the different components in these compositions.
Example 3--Lotions
A composition of the present invention in lotion form is prepared and contains:
(a) 0.5-2% of lanolin ethoxylated with 25 moles of ethylene oxide;
(b) 0.5-5% of polyethylene glycol (M.W.=400);
(c) 1-10% of sorbitol (70%);
(d) 40-60% ethyl alcohol (96.degree.);
(e) 0-1% of perfume;
(f) 1-5% of the pyridine derivative of formula (I); and
(g) water, sufficient for 100%.
This lotion is applied to the skin, for example, by spraying and provides after exposure to the sun for a period between 10 and 20 minutes, a coloration essentially the same as a natural tan.
Using a lotion having the following composition:
a coloration resembling a natural tan is achieved after an exposure of 20 minutes to a bright midday sun.
The inclusion of an ethoxylated derivative of p-aminobenzoic acid in an amount of 1.5% based on the ethyl alcohol, provides after an exposure of 30 minutes to the sun to a tan coloration essentially the same as that obtained above.
By replacing the photo-dye and/or filter by the components listed in Table III, the results shown therein are achieved. These tests, as before, have been made using an inert support.
Amerscreen P is the mark for a product comprising ethyl monohydroxy propylamino benzoate and ethyl dihydroxy propyl amino benzoate in a ratio of 1:3, which has a molecular weight of 281.
SC 9155 is the mark for a solar filter having fixed on a mole of p-amino benzoic acid about 25 moles of ethylene oxide; it has an OH index of 75.85 and a saponification index of 36.44.
