Abstract

A changing color composition in the form of a gel for caring for and/or making up keratin materials is disclosed. The composition comprises in a physiologically acceptable medium, a) from 0.1 to 10% by weight preferably from 0.5 to 10% more preferably from 1 to 5% by weight relative to the weight of the composition of microcapsules containing releasable colorant(s), said microcapsules comprising: —a core comprising one organic material, —at least one layered coating surrounding said core, the layered coating comprising at least one polymer at least one colorant, and advantageously at least one lipid-based material, b) at least 3% by weight, preferably at least 5% by weight, more preferably at least 8% by weight and advantageously at least 10% by weight relative to the weight of the composition of an aqueous phase comprising water and at least one compound chosen from polyols, glycols and C2-C8 monoalcohols, and mixtures thereof, and c) at least one hydrophilic gelifying agent.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A changing colour composition in the form of a gel comprising, in a physiologically acceptable medium,
a) from 0.1 to 10% by weight relative to the weight of the composition of microcapsules containing releasable colorant(s), said microcapsules comprising:
a core comprising one organic material,
at least two layered coatings surrounding said core, at least one of the layered coatings comprising
at least one polymer,
at least one colorant,

b) at least 3% by weight relative to the weight of the composition of an aqueous phase comprising water and at least one compound chosen from polyols, glycols and C 2 -C 5 monoalcohols, and mixtures thereof, and
c) at least one hydrophilic gelifying agent, wherein
the core comprises at least one monosaccharide-polyol selected from the group consisting of mannitol, erythritol, xylitol, sorbitol and mixtures thereof,
the core does not contain colorant material, and
the microcapsules comprise at least two layers of different colors.

2. The changing colour composition according to claim 1 , wherein said microcapsules further comprise at least one hydrophilic polymer.

3. The changing colour composition according to claim 1 , wherein the gel is transparent or translucent.

4. The changing colour composition according to claim 1 , comprising at least one hydrophilic gelifying agent chosen from water-soluble or water dispersible polymers wherein the water-soluble or water dispersible polymers are chosen from:
modified or unmodified carboxyvinyl polymers;
polyacrylates;
polymethacrylates;
polyacrylamides;
2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid polymers and copolymers;
crosslinked anionic copolymers of acrylamide and of ammonium polyacryloyldimethyltaurate (AMPS);
polysaccharide biopolymers;
celluloses;
and mixtures thereof.

5. The changing colour composition according to claim 4 , wherein the water-soluble or water dispersible polymers are chosen from Acrylates/C 10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer; Ammonium acryloyldimethyl Taurate/Steareth-8 Methacrylate copolymer; Acrylates copolymer; Ammonium acryloyldimethyl taurate/steareth-25 Methacrylate Crosspolymer; Ammonium acryloyldimethyl taurate, and xanthan gum.

6. The changing colour composition according to claim 1 , wherein the hydrophilic gelifying agent(s) are present in an amount ranging from 0.001 to 10% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition.

7. The changing colour composition according to claim 1 , further comprising one or more water soluble emollient(s) and/or lipid(s) with a polar moiety.

8. The changing colour composition according to claim 1 , wherein the microcapsules have a size ranging from 50 μm to 800 μm in diameter of the microcapsule and comprise:
a core (A);
ii) one first layer (B) surrounding said core comprising:
at least one colorant, and
a binder selected from at least one polymer, at least one lipid-based material, and their mixture:

iii) one second layer (C) surrounding said first layer (B), comprising:
titanium dioxide particles, and
a binder selected from at least one polymer, at least one lipid-based material, and their mixture.

9. The changing colour cosmetic composition according to claim 1 , wherein the compound in part (b) of claim 1 is selected from polyols or glycols, and wherein said polyols or glycols are present in an amount of 12% to 50% based on the weight of the aqueous phase composition.

10. The changing colour cosmetic composition according to claim 1 , comprising water in an amount of at least 30% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition.

11. The changing colour cosmetic composition according to claim 1 , comprising an aqueous phase in a content ranging from 30% to 99% by weight relative to the total weight of the said composition.

12. The changing colour cosmetic composition according to claim 1 , wherein at least one layer of the microcapsules is obtained by fluid bed process.

13. The changing colour cosmetic composition according to claim 1 , wherein said composition is for caring for and/or making up keratin materials.

14. A cosmetic process for caring for and/or making up keratinic materials, comprising applying on said keratinic materials a composition as defined according to claim 1 .
