Use of photoluminescent polymers in cosmetic products

摘要

Disclosed are cosmetic compositions and methods for making up keratinous tissue using the compositions, as well as methods of making the compositions. The compositions contain a photoluminescent polymer (PLP) which is an oligomeric polyester synthesized from a multifunctional monomer and a diol, and which has grafted thereon an amino acid or an amino acid derivative. The compositions achieve a colorizing and/or UV-protectant effect when applied to keratinous tissue.

主权项

1. A cosmetic composition, comprising a) a photoluminescent polymer (PLP) which is a polyester synthesized from a multifunctional monomer containing two carboxylic acid groups and a functional moiety comprising a carboxylic acid group or a hydroxyl group, and a diol, wherein the photoluminescent polymer has grafted thereon or incorporated into the polymer backbone, an amino acid or an amino acid derivative which is S-benzyl-L-cysteine, b) a solvent and c) at least one additional cosmetically acceptable ingredient comprising a structuring agent, a gelling agent, a powder, a filler, an emulsifier, a liquid fatty phase or a combination of two or more thereof, wherein the composition is selected from the group consisting of a non-compressed foundation powder or stick, a compressed foundation powder or stick, a cosmetic paste, mascara, lipstick, lip gloss, lip balm, a cosmetic lotion, a cosmetic cream, and a hair care product.
