Description
The invention relates to cosmetic compositions containing at least one nonionic surface-active agent of the alkyl polyglycoside and/or polyglycerolated type and at least one polyetherurethane.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,155,892 essentially describes the use of some polyetherurethanes for thickening latex-based paint compositions.
Polyetherurethanes are moreover known as thickeners for compositions containing surface-active agents. Europena Application EP 260 430 describes polyetherurethanes capable of being used in cosmetics for thickening oxyethylenated fatty alcohols containing 8.5 to 15 moles of ethylene oxide, and oxyethylenated sorbitan monoester containing 20 moles of ethylene oxide.
Surface-active agents of the family of alkyl polyglycosides or polyglycerolated agents have already been recommended in washing compositions for the hair or the skin. They are mild detergents which are well tolerated and are biodegradable.
Hair which is attacked by environmental agents such as light or chemical treatments, and washed with conventional washing bases, is difficult to disentangle and this disadvantage is increased further in the case of fine hair. The compositions, containing polyetherurethanes and nonionic surface-active agents, described in European Application EP 260 430 do not confer disentangling properties.
The applicant has just discovered, surprisingly, that the combination, in washing and/or treating compositions for keratinous materials, of polyetherurethanes with special nonionic surface-active agents of the alkyl polyglycoside and/or polyglycerolated type conferred on these compositions substantially improved disentangling properties. Moreover, the combination conforming to the invention makes it possible to obtain a very mild foam compared with the generally harsh foam resulting from the use of nonionic agents.
Furthermore, the applicant observed that compositions containing such a combination had good cosmetic properties such as mildness and a pleasant feel.
The subject of the present invention is therefore cosmetic compositions containing at least one nonionic surface-active agent of the alkyl polyglycoside and/or polyglycerolated type and at least one polyetherurethane.
Another subject of the invention consists in the use of these compositions for treating and/or washing keratinous materials such as the hair or the skin, hair being particularly preferred.
Another subject of the invention consists in a process for the cosmetic treatment of the hair or the skin by means of the compositions conforming to the invention; the process for washing and treating hair being particularly preferred.
Other subjects of the invention will emerge on reading the following description and examples.
The cosmetic compositions according to the invention contain, in a cosmetically acceptable medium, at least one nonionic surface-active agent of the alkyl polyglycoside and/or polyglycerolated type and at least one polyetherurethane.
