Abstract

The present invention relates generally to cosmetic compositions that impart a matte finish to human integuments. More specifically, the invention relates to lip cosmetics that impart a matte finish.

Claims

1. A cosmetic lip composition comprising a mattifying powder comprising Polyethylene (and) Calcium Silicate (and) Silica;

wherein said composition is characterized by a gloss value of less than about 50.

2. The cosmetic lip composition according to claim 1, wherein said mattifying powder comprises from about 50% to about 70% by weight polyethylene, from about 30% to about 50% by weight calcium silicate, and from about 0.5% to about 5% by weight silica.

3. The cosmetic lip composition according to claim 1, wherein said mattifying powder is a product of co-extrusion of polyethylene powder, calcium silicate, and silica.

4. The cosmetic composition according to claim 1, further comprising an emollient comprising a silicone crosspolymer or silicone elastomer, and wherein said composition is characterized by a gloss value of less than about 40.

5. The cosmetic composition according to claim 2, wherein said emollient comprises Dimethicone Crosspolymer (INCI).

6. The cosmetic lip composition according to claim 4, wherein said mattifying powder comprises between about 0.5% and about 10% by weight of said composition and wherein said emollient comprises between about 10% and about 30% of said composition.

7. The cosmetic composition according to claim 1, further comprising an emollient comprising hydrogenated Polyisobutene (and) Polymethylsilsesquioxane (and) Vinyl Dimethicone/Methicone Silseaquioxane Crosspolymer (and) Ethylene/Propylene Copolymer (INCI);

and wherein said composition is characterized by a gloss value of less than about 40.

8. The cosmetic lip composition according to claim 7, wherein said emollient comprises from about 60% to about 80% by weight hydrogenated polyisobutene, from about 5% to about 15% by weight polymethylsilsesquioxane, from about 5% to about 15% by weight vinyl dimethicone/methicone silseaquioxane crosspolymer, and from about 1% to about 10% by weight ethylene/propylene copolymer.

9. The cosmetic lip composition according to claim 1, characterized by a gloss value of less than about 20.

10. The cosmetic lip composition according to claim 1, further comprising a pigment and wherein the total particulate content comprises less than about 30% by weight of the composition.

11. The cosmetic lip composition according to claim 1, further comprising micronized polyethylene.

12. The cosmetic lip composition according to claim 1, wherein the composition is substantially free of shine agents.

13. The cosmetic lip composition according to claim 1, further comprising an oil selected from the group consisting of isopropyl palmitate, isopropyl isostearate, isostearyl neopentanoate, isostearyl stearate, castor oil, lauryl lactate, ethylhexyl palmitate, glyceryl triacethyl hydroxystearate, diisopropyl adipate, octyl isononanoate, neopentyl glycol dioctanoate, neopentyl glycol dicaprate, isodecyl oleate, and myristyl myristate.

14. The cosmetic lip composition according to claim 1, wherein the composition is substantially anhydrous.

15. A method of imparting matte color to a human integument comprising applying to the human integument a film of a composition comprising a mattifying powder comprising Polyethylene (and) Calcium Silicate (and) Silica, wherein said composition is characterized by a gloss value of less than about 50.

16. The method of claim 15, wherein the composition further comprises an emollient comprising a silicone crosspolymer or silicone elastomer;

and wherein said composition is characterized by a gloss value of less than about 40.

17. The method of claim 16, wherein said silicone crosspolymer comprises Dimethicone Crosspolymer (INCI);

and wherein said composition is characterized by a gloss value of less than about 40.

18. The method of claim 15, wherein the composition further comprises an emollient comprising hydrogenated Polyisobutene (and) Polymethylsilsesquioxane (and) Vinyl Dimethicone/Methicone Silseaquioxane Crosspolymer (and) Ethylene/Propylene Copolymer;

and wherein said composition is characterized by a gloss value of less than about 40.

19. A method for imparting a matte film to human lips, comprising applying thereto a composition comprising from about 1-10% by weight of a mattifying polymeric powder characterized by an oil absorption value greater than 100 (g/100 g) as measured by ASTM D281-12, in an anhydrous vehicle comprising an emollient characterized by a gloss value less than the gloss value of castor oil;

a wax content between about 10-27% by weight; and

one or more pigments, fillers, or cosmetic powders, wherein the total particulate content of said composition is less than 25% by weight, and wherein said composition is characterized by a gloss value of less than about 40.

20. The method according to claim 19, wherein said emollient comprises Dimethicone Crosspolymer, said mattifying powder comprises Polyethylene (and) Calcium Silicate (and) Silica, and wherein said composition further includes a fatty alcohol and/or ester oil in an amount from about 20-75% by weight of the composition.
