Abstract
The instant disclosure relates to a cosmetic composition containing high amounts of lactone polyols and to methods for treating skin with the compositions. The cosmetic compositions include: (a) poly C10-30 alkyl acrylate; (b) at least 5 wt. % of one or more lactone polyols; (c) one or more nonionic emulsifiers; (d) one or more fatty compounds; and (e) water. In addition, the amount of the one or more lactone polyols in the composition is typically at least 10-fold higher than the amount of the poly C10-30 alkyl acrylate in the composition.
Claims20
A cosmetic composition comprising:
- (a) about 0.3 to about 3 wt. % of poly C10-30 alkyl acrylate;
- (b) at least 5 wt. % of one or more lactone polyols,
- wherein (a) and (b) are in a weight ratio of 10:1 to 25:1 (a):(b));
- (c) about 0.5 to about 6 wt. % of one or more nonionic emulsifiers;
- (d) one or more fatty compounds;
- (e) about 50 to 80 wt. % of water;
- and
- (f) about 0.1 to about 8 wt. % of one or more thickening agents;
- wherein the composition is an oil-in-water emulsion, and
- all weight percentages are based on a total weight of the composition.
A cosmetic composition comprising:
- (a) about 0.5 to about 1.5 wt. % of poly C10-30 alkyl acrylate;
- (b) at least 5 to about 15 wt. % of gluconolactone, 3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid, or a combination thereof;
- wherein (b) is in an amount at least 10-fold higher than (a);
- (c) about 0.1 to about 5 wt. % of one or more nonionic emulsifiers;
- (d) about 5 to about 25 wt. % of a plurality of fatty compounds, wherein the plurality of fatty compounds comprises:
- (d)(1) about 0.1 to about 5 wt. % of one or more fatty alcohols;
- (d)(2) about 1 to about 10 wt. % of one or more fatty compounds in addition to the one or more fatty alcohols;
- (e) about 50 to about 85 wt. % of water;
- (f) about 0.1 to about 5 wt. % of one or more thickening agents, wherein at least one of the one or more thickening agents is selected from taurate polymers and copolymers;
- (g) about 5 to about 10 wt. % of one or more alpha hydroxy acids, beta hydroxy acids, salts thereof, or a combination thereof;
- (h) about 5 to about 20 wt. % of one or more water-soluble organic solvents selected from glycerin, C2-C5 mono-alcohols, polyols, glycols, or mixtures thereof;
- wherein the composition is an oil-in-water emulsion, and all weight percentages are based on a total weight of the composition.
