Abstract

The present disclosure relates to methods and compositions for providing at least broad spectrum photo protection to skin, which includes protection from at least infrared (IR) radiation and/or visible light. The methods typically entail applying to skin a cosmetic composition comprising: (a) one or more antioxidants selected from the group consisting of baicalin, Venuceane™, ferulic acid, polydatin, silymarin, punica granatum extract, mango leaf extract, soliprin, catechin, hesperetin, astilbin, and DHC V; (b) optionally, one or more solubilizers; and (c) a cosmetically acceptable carrier; wherein the combination of (a), optional (b), and (c) alone, provide at least broad spectrum protection from both infrared (IR) radiation and visible light. UV filters can also optionally be included to provide additional protection from UV light.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A method for providing at least broad spectrum photo protection to skin, which includes protection from infrared radiation and visible light, the method comprising topically applying to the skin of a subject a cosmetic composition comprising:
(a) 0.001 to 20 wt. %, based on the total weight of the composition of one or more antioxidants selected from the group consisting of baicalin, thermus thermophillus ferment, ferulic acid, polydatin, silymarin, punica granatum extract, mango leaf extract, catechin, hesperetin, astilbin, and DHC V;
(b) 0.001 wt. % to 30 wt. % of one or more cosmetically acceptable hydrotropes selected from the group consisting of nicotinamide, caffeine, sodium PCA, sodium salicylate, urea, and hydroxyethyl urea; and
(c) a cosmetically acceptable carrier;
wherein the combination of (a), (b), and (c) alone provides at least broad spectrum protection from both infrared radiation and visible light.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more antioxidants of (a) comprises baicalin.

3. The method of claim 1 where the one or more antioxidants of (a) comprises polydatin.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
(d) 0.001 to 10 wt. %, based on the total weight of the compositions, of one or more nonionic emulsifiers.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the nonionic emulsifier is selected from a polyol ester, a glycerol ether, an oxyethylenated, an oxypropylenated ether, an ethylene glycol polymer, and combinations thereof.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the nonionic emulsifier comprises a combination of a polyol ester and an ethylene glycol polymer.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
(e) one or more UV filters.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the total amount of the one or more UV filters of (e) is 0.001 to 30 wt. %, based on the total weight of the composition.

9. The method of claim 7 , wherein the one or more UV filters of (e) are selected from the group consisting of a para-aminobenzoic acid derivative, a salicylic derivative, a cinnamic derivative, a benzophenone or an aminobenzophenone, an anthranillic derivative, a β,β-diphenylacrylate derivative, a benzylidenecamphor derivative, a phenylbenzimidazole derivative, a benzotriazole derivative, a triazine derivative, a bisresorcinyl triazine, an imidazoline derivative, a benzalmalonate derivative, a 4,4-diarylbutadiene derivative, a benzoxazole derivative, a merocyanine, malonitrile or a malonate diphenyl butadiene derivative, and a chalcone.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the cosmetically acceptable carrier of (c) comprises water, an organic solvent, or a mixture thereof.

11. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
(f) one or more skin active ingredients.

12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composition further comprises:
(g) one or more silicon oils.

13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the one or more silicon oils of (g) are selected from the group consisting of polydimethylsiloxanes (PDMSs), polydimethylsiloxanes comprising alkyl or alkoxy groups which are pendent and/or at the end of the silicone chain, which groups each contain from 2 to 24 carbon atoms, or phenyl silicones, such as phenyl trimethicones, phenyl dimethicones, phenyl(trimethylsiloxy)diphenylsiloxanes, diphenyl dimethicones, diphenyl(methyldiphenyl)trisiloxanes and (2-phenylethyl)trimethylsiloxysilicates.

14. The method of claim 11 , wherein the one or more silicone oils of (g) comprises dimethicone.

15. A method for providing at least broad spectrum photo protection to skin, which includes protection from infrared radiation and visible light, the method comprising topically applying to the skin of a subject a cosmetic composition comprising:
(a) 0.001 to 20 wt. %, based on the total weight of the composition, of one or more antioxidants selected from the group consisting of baicalin, polydatin, thermus thermophillus ferment, and punica granatum extract;
(b) 0.001 wt. % to 30 wt. %, based on the total weight of the composition, of one or more cosmetically acceptable hydrotropes selected from the group consisting of nicotinamide, caffeine, sodium PCA, sodium salicylate, urea, and hydroxyethyl urea;
(c) a cosmetically acceptable carrier selected from the group consisting of water and an organic solvent;
(d) 0.001 to 10 wt. %, based on the total weight of the composition, of one or more nonionic emulsifiers; and
(e) one or more UV filters;
wherein the combination of (a), (b), and (c) alone provides at least broad spectrum protection from both infrared radiation and visible light.

16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the cosmetic composition comprises both nicotinamide and caffeine.

17. The method of claim 16 , wherein the one or more antioxidants of (a) comprises baicalin.

18. The method of claim 16 , wherein the one or more antioxidants of (a) comprises polydatin.

19. The method of claim 16 , wherein the one or more antioxidants of (a) comprises thermus thermophillus ferment.

20. The method of claim 16 , wherein the one or more antioxidants of (a) comprises punica granatum extract.
