Abstract

The present invention is directed to long wearing, water-resistant mascara including an oil-soluble polar modified polymer and an amine compound.

Claims

1. A mascara composition comprising:

(a) at least one oil-soluble polar modified polymer;

(b) at least one amine compound selected from the group consisting of a basic amino acid and a vinylamine/vinylamide copolymer.

2. The composition of claim 1, wherein the amine compound is a basic amino acid.

3. The composition of claim 1, wherein the amine compound is a vinylamine/vinylamide copolymer.

4. The composition of claim 1, further comprising water.

5. The composition of claim 2, further comprising at least one aqueous polyurethane dispersion.

6. The composition of claim 1, wherein the oil-soluble polar modified polymer is present in an amount of from about 1% to about 30% by weight, based on the weight of the composition.

7. The composition of claim 1, wherein the oil-soluble polar modified polymer is a polypropylene and/or polyethylene-maleic anhydride modified wax.

8. The composition of claim 2, wherein the basic amino acid is lysine and/or arginine.

9. The composition of claim 2, wherein the basic amino acid is arginine.

10. The composition of claim 2, wherein the basic amino acid is present in an amount of from about 0.5% to about 7.5% by weight based on the weight of the composition.

11. The composition of claim 3, wherein the vinylamine/vinylamide copolymer comprises from 10 to 60 mol % of units of formula A:

12. The composition of claim 3, wherein the vinylamine/vinylamide copolymer comprises from 30 to 90 mol % of unit of formula B:

13. The composition of claim 3, wherein the vinylamine/vinylamide copolymer is composed solely of units A and of units B identified below:

14. The composition of claim 3, wherein the vinylamine/vinylamide copolymer is present in an amount of from about 1% to about 10% by weight based on the weight of the composition.

15. The composition of claim 4, wherein water is present in an amount of from about 5% to about 50% by weight, based on the weight of the composition.

16. The composition of claim 5, wherein the aqueous polyurethane dispersion is present in an amount from about 5% to about 50% of the total weight of the composition.

17. The composition of claim 5, wherein the aqueous polyurethane dispersion comprises polyurethane-35.

18. The composition of claim 2, wherein the oil-soluble polar modified polymer and the basic amino acid form a reaction product.

19. The composition of claim 3, wherein the oil-soluble polar modified polymer and the vinylamine/vinylamide copolymer form a reaction product.

20. A method of making up eyelashes comprising applying the composition of claim 1 to eyelashes.
