Abstract

The present specification relates to an oil-in-water type emulsion cosmetic composition containing an amphiphilic anisotropic powder and ceramide, wherein the amphiphilic anisotropic powder contains a first polymer spheroid which is hydrophilic and a second polymer spheroid which is hydrophobic, wherein the first polymer spheroid and the second polymer spheroid bind by at least partially penetrating the other polymer spheroid, wherein the first polymer spheroid has a core-shell structure, wherein the shell contains a functional group, and wherein the ceramide contains oil phase ceramide included in oil phase and ceramide particles included in water phase.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. An oil-in-water emulsion cosmetic composition comprising amphiphilic anisotropic powder, an oil-phase ceramide contained in an oil phase, and ceramide particles contained in an aqueous phase,
wherein the amphiphilic anisotropic powder comprises a first hydrophilic polymer spheroid and a second hydrophobic polymer spheroid,
the first polymer spheroid and the second polymer spheroid are bound to each other with a structure in which one polymer spheroid at least partially penetrates into the other polymer spheroid,
the first polymer spheroid has a core-shell structure, the shell has a functional group, and
wherein the ceramide particles are formed as a crystalline phase in which a ceramide in the aqueous phase is surrounded with the amphiphilic anisotropic powder, and wherein the ceramide particles have an average particle diameter of 5-200 μm.

2. The composition according to claim 1 , which comprises the ceramide in an amount of 0.5-10 wt % based on the total weight of the composition.

3. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the ceramide particles are present in an amount of 50-95 wt % based on the total weight of the ceramide.

4. The composition according to claim 1 , which comprises the amphiphilic anisotropic powder in an amount of 0.1-30 wt % based on the total weight of the composition.

5. The composition according to claim 1 , which has a viscosity of 1000-10000 cps.

6. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the ceramide is at least one selected from natural ceramides and pseudo-ceramides.

7. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the functional group is siloxane.

8. The composition according to claim 1 , the second polymer spheroid and wherein the core of the first polymer spheroid comprise vinyl polymers, and the shell of the first polymer spheroid comprises a copolymer of a vinyl monomer with a functional group-containing monomer.

9. The composition according to claim 8 , wherein the vinyl polymer is a vinyl aromatic polymer.

10. The composition according to claim 8 , wherein the vinyl monomer is a vinyl aromatic monomer.

11. The composition according to claim 8 , wherein the functional group-containing monomer is a siloxane-containing (meth)acrylate.

12. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the amphiphilic anisotropic powder has a symmetric shape, asymmetric snowman shape or asymmetric reverse snowman shape on the basis of the binding portion where the first polymer spheroid and the second polymer spheroid are bound to each other.

13. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the amphiphilic anisotropic powder has a particle size of 100-2500 nm.

14. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the amphiphilic anisotropic powder forms macroemulsion particles having an average particle diameter of 50-300 μm.

15. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the shell of the first polymer spheroid comprises a hydrophilic functional group introduced additionally thereto.

16. The composition according to claim 15 , wherein the hydrophilic functional group is at least one selected from the group consisting of a carboxylate group, sulfone group, phosphate group, amino group, alkoxy group, ester group, acetate group, polyethylene glycol group and hydroxyl group.

17. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the shell of the first polymer spheroid comprises a saccharide-containing functional group additionally introduced thereto.

18. The composition according to claim 17 , wherein the saccharide-containing functional group is derived from at least one selected from the group consisting of N-{N-(3-triethoxysilylpropyl) aminoethyl}gluconamide, N-(3-triethoxysilylpropyl) gluconamide and N- {N-(3 -triethoxysilylpropyl)aminoethyl}-oligo-hyaluronamide.
