View Patent ↗The present invention relates generally to cosmetic compositions that impart a matte finish to human integuments. More specifically, the invention relates to lip cosmetics that impart a matte finish.
1. A matte lipstick comprising ethylhexyl palmitate and isopropyl isostearate, wherein the weight ratio of said ethylhexyl palmitate to said isopropyl isostearate is from about 1.72:1 to about 2:1.
2. The matte lipstick according to claim 1 , further comprising from about 5% to about 20% by weight non-volatile dimethicone oil and from about 1% to about 10% by weight silicone crosspolymer.
3. The matte lipstick according to claim 1 , wherein the gloss value of said composition is less than 7.
4. The matte lipstick according to claim 1 , comprising one or more additional emollients, wherein the aggregate amount of all emollients is between about 40% to about 60% by weight.
5. The matte lipstick according to claim 4 , wherein said additional emollients comprise non-volatile dimethicone oil, polyglycerol diisostearate, or silicone crosspolymers.
6. The matte lipstick according to claim 1 , comprising one or more additional ester oils and one or more waxes, wherein the aggregate weight of all ester oils is greater than the aggregate weight of all waxes.
7. The matte lipstick according to claim 6 , wherein the aggregate weight all ester oils is between about 10% and about 40% by weight.
8. The matte lipstick according to claim 7 , wherein said waxes are present in amount between about 5% and about 20% by weight.
9. The matte lipstick according to claim 8 , wherein said waxes comprise paraffin wax, ozokerite wax, and microcrystalline wax.
10. The matte lipstick according to claim 1 comprising from about 1% to about 10% by weight of a silicone crosspolymer.
11. The matte lipstick according to claim 1 , further comprising spherical silica, calcium silicate, and polyethylene powder.
12. A method of imparting matte color to a human integument comprising applying to the human integument a film of a composition according to claim 1 .
13. A method of imparting matte color to a human integument comprising applying to the human integument a film of a matte lipstick comprising:
(a) from about 10% to about 30% by weight ethylhexyl palmitate and between about 1% and about 20% by weight isopropyl isostearate, wherein the ratio of ethylhexyl palmitate to isopropyl isostearate is from about 1.72:1 to about 2:1;
(b) from about 1% to about 10% by weight of a silicone crosspolymer;
(c) from about 1% to about 20% by weight of a mattifying powder comprising calcium silicate, spherical silica, and polyethylene powder; and
(d) from about 1% to about 25% by weight of one or more colorants;
wherein said film is characterized by a gloss value of less than 10.
14. The method according to claim 13 , wherein said ethylhexyl palmitate comprises from about 15% to about 25% by weight of the composition; said isopropyl isostearate comprises from about 5% to about 15% by weight of the composition.
15. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein said composition comprises:
(a) from about 10% to about 30% by weight ethylhexyl palmitate and between about 5% and about 15% by weight isopropyl isostearate;
(b) from about 1% to about 10% by weight of a silicone crosspolymer;
(c) from about 1% to about 20% by weight of a mattifying powder comprising calcium silicate, spherical silica, and polyethylene powder; and
(d) from about 1% to about 25% by weight of one or more colorants.
16. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein said composition comprises between about 1% and about 10% polyethylene powder by weight of the composition.
