Definitions
- Aging skin is the result of more than just chronological age. Skin is exposed to environmental elements that cause radicals to form in the skin. These radicals attack the collagen layer of the skin and break it down, causing lines and wrinkles to appear. This process is commonly called photo-aging. Diseases and disorders of skin that also may result from radical damage include skin cancer, skin irritation or inflammation, dermatitis, allergy, psoriasis, acne, eczema, rosacea.
- antioxidants can help prevent radical-induced damage in skin.
- Applying Vitamin C, for example, to the skin can provide antioxidant protection, prevent photo-aging, and stimulate collagen production.
- Vitamin C formulations produce these benefits due to lack of stability.
- the present invention is thus directed to a composition and process for inhibiting radical-induced damage to skin which does not suffer from conventional stability issues.

Abstract
An anti-aging composition containing: (a) at least one first active ingredient chosen from phloretin and its derivatives; (b) at least one second active ingredient chosen from cinnamic acid, resveratrol, retinol, ascorbic acid, tocopherol, and their derivatives; and (c) at least one non-aqueous organic solvent, with the proviso that if the composition contains ascorbic acid, water is present as a co-solvent.
Description
- This application is a non-provisional application of, and claims benefit to, U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/784,571, filed Mar. 22, 2006, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety for all purposes.
- Aging skin is the result of more than just chronological age. Skin is exposed to environmental elements that cause radicals to form in the skin. These radicals attack the collagen layer of the skin and break it down, causing lines and wrinkles to appear. This process is commonly called photo-aging. Diseases and disorders of skin that also may result from radical damage include skin cancer, skin irritation or inflammation, dermatitis, allergy, psoriasis, acne, eczema, rosacea.
- Application of antioxidants can help prevent radical-induced damage in skin. Applying Vitamin C, for example, to the skin can provide antioxidant protection, prevent photo-aging, and stimulate collagen production. However, not all Vitamin C formulations produce these benefits due to lack of stability.
- The present invention is thus directed to a composition and process for inhibiting radical-induced damage to skin which does not suffer from conventional stability issues.
- The present invention is directed to an anti-aging composition containing:
- (a) at least one first active ingredient chosen from phloretin and its derivatives;
- (b) at least one second active ingredient chosen from cinnamic acid, resveratrol, retinol, ascorbic acid, tocopherol, and their derivatives; and
- (c) at least one non-aqueous organic solvent, and with the proviso that, if the composition contains ascorbic acid, water is present as a co-solvent.
- The present invention is also directed to a process for treating radical-induced damage to skin by contacting the skin with the above-disclosed composition.
- Other than in the operating examples, or where otherwise indicated, all numbers expressing quantities of ingredients and/or reaction conditions are to be understood as being modified in all instances by the term “about”.
- The present invention is directed to the surprising discovery that by combining at least one first active ingredient chosen from phloretin, and its derivatives, with at least one second active ingredient chosen from cinnamic acid, resveratrol, retinol, ascorbic acid, tocopherol and their derivatives, an effective treatment for radical-induced damage to skin is realized.

- Other Ingredients
- It may also be desired to include certain other ingredients in the composition of the invention, such as surfactants, waxes, colorants, preservatives, and the like.
- Surfactants
- Silicone Surfactants
- The term “surfactant” is defined, in accordance with the invention, as a compound having at least one hydrophilic moiety and at least one lipophilic moiety. The surfactants may be silicone surfactants (also referred to as organosiloxane emulsifiers) or organic surfactants.
- Suitable silicone surfactants used in the compositions of the invention may be liquid or solid at room temperature and are generally a water-in-oil or oil-in-water type surfactants which are preferably nonionic, having an Hydrophile/Lipophile Balance (HLB) of 2 to 18. Preferably the organosiloxane is a nonionic surfactant having an HLB of 2 to 12; such as 2 to 10; such as 4 to 6. The HLB of a nonionic surfactant is the balance between the hydrophilic and lipophilic portions of the surfactant and is calculated according to the following formula:
-
HLB=20(1−S/A) - where S is the saponification number of the surfactant and A is the acid number of the surfactant.
- The silicone surfactant or emulsifier used in the compositions of the invention is a polymer containing a polymeric backbone including repeating siloxy units that may have cyclic, linear or branched repeating units, e.g. di(lower)alkylsiloxy units, preferably dimethylsiloxy units. The hydrophilic portion of the organosiloxane is generally achieved by substitution onto the polymeric backbone of a radical that confers hydrophilic properties to a portion of the molecule. The hydrophilic radical may be substituted on a terminus of the polymeric organosiloxane, or on any one or more repeating units of the polymer. In general, the repeating dimethylsiloxy units of modified polydimethylsiloxane emulsifiers are lipophilic in nature due to the methyl groups, and confer lipophilicity to the molecule. In addition, longer chain alkyl radicals, hydroxy-polypropyleneoxy radicals, or other types of lipophilic radicals may be substituted onto the siloxy backbone to confer further lipophilicity and organocompatibility. If the lipophilic portion of the molecule is due in whole or part to a specific radical, this lipophilic radical may be substituted on a terminus of the organosilicone polymer, or on any one or more repeating units of the polymer. It should also be understood that the organosiloxane polymer in accordance with the invention should have at least one hydrophilic portion and one lipophilic portion.
- The term “hydrophilic radical” means a radical that, when substituted onto the organosiloxane polymer backbone, confers hydrophilic properties to the substituted portion of the polymer. Examples of radicals that will confer hydrophilicity are hydroxy-polyethyleneoxy, hydroxyl, carboxylates, sulfonates, sulfates, phosphates, or amines.
- The term “lipophilic radical” means an organic radical that, when substituted onto the organosiloxane polymer backbone, confers lipophilic properties to the substituted portion of the polymer. Examples of organic radicals which will confer lipophilicity are C1-40 straight or branched chain alkyl, fluoro, aryl, aryloxy, C1-40 hydrocarbyl acyl, hydroxypolypropyleneoxy, or mixtures thereof. The C1-40 alkyl may be non-interrupted, or interrupted by one or more oxygen atoms, a benzene ring, amides, esters, or other functional groups.

- All products were applied at a rate of 4 mg/cm2, with a finger provided with a finger cot.
- One hour and a half after application, the treated zones were exposed to 320-440 nm UVA at a dose corresponding to 2 Individual Minimal Erythemal Doses (iMED).
- Colorimetric measurements and visual assessments were performed 2 hours after exposure in order to evaluate the intensity of UVA-induced erythema and that of the Persistent Pigment Darkening (PPD).
- Colorimetric Measurements
- The equipment used for colorimetric measurements was as follows:
- MINOLTA CR 300 No2 COLORIMETER
- 1600 Watts Xenon lamp ORIEL 4×4 with filters WG 335 3 mm (A) and dichroic mirror for UVA spectrum in the field 320-440 nm, was used for colorimetric measurements in compliance with the in vivo PPD method as described in the following articles: A. Chardon, D. Moyal, C. Hourseau: Persistent pigment darkening response as a method for evaluation of UVA protection assays published in “Sunscreens: development, evaluation and regulatory aspects”, 2nd edition (N. Lowe, N. Shath, M. Pathak, ed.; Marcel Dekker Inc.), pp. 559-582, 1986, and D. Moyal, A. Chardon, N. Kollias: UVA protection efficacy of sunscreens can be determined by the persistent pigment darkening (PPD) method (Part 2), published in Photo-dermatol. Photoimmunol. Photomed., 16, 250-255, 2000.
- UV-METER PMA No5 with UVA Sensor SN 2423 used to measure and calculate the amounts of UVA received (J.cm2).
- Balance
- Finger cot
- Evaluation Criteria
- Colorimetric measurements were performed on the treated exposed zones (TEZ) and on the non-treated exposed zones (NTEZ) (2 measurements in triplicate). The measurements were expressed as L*, a*, and b* values (CIE 1976 L*a*b* also known as CIELAB). The L*, a*, and b* values obtained from the zones treated with a product were compared to the L*, a*, and b* values obtained from the zones treated with the control formulation.
- The UVA-induced erythema is expressed as Δa*, which represents the difference in a* values between the treated exposed zones (TEZ) and the non-treated exposed zones (NTEZ). Δa* represents the red hue, which quantifies the intensity of the UVA-induced erythema. The larger the Δa*, the more intense the erythema.
- Visual assessments of the UVA-induced erythema were performed 2 hours after exposure, and reported on a scale having 14 levels of evaluation, from 0=no pink color observed (no erythema) to 13=darkest pink color observed.
- The Persistent Pigment Darkening (PPD) is reported as ΔE, which represents the total modification of the coloring of the skin.
- ΔE is expressed as the square root of (Δa*2+Δb*2+ΔL*2).
- The larger the ΔE, the more intense the persistent pigment darkening (PPD). ΔE may be used to represent the overall change in color.
