Abstract

The present invention provides compositions with increased color shade stability comprising organic pigments and TiO 2 . The combination of specific ingredients disclosed herein prevents the color migration often associated with organic pigments including azo based dyes and lakes.

Claims (35)

1 . A pigmented composition comprising:

(a) pigmentary titanium dioxide;

(b) organic pigments; and

(c) metal oxide particles having an average particle size of less than 50 μm (e.g., as measured by dynamic light scattering);

wherein the weight ratio of said pigmentary titanium dioxide and said organic pigments to said metal oxide particles in said composition is greater than 1:1 (e.g., 100:1 to 1:1, 50:1 to 1:1, 30:1 to 1:1, 100:1 to 2:1, 50:1 to 2:1, 30:1 to 2:1, 50:1 to 1:1, 100:1 to 5:1, 50:1 to 5:1, 30:1 to 5:1);

wherein the metal oxide particles are selected from silica, alumina, zirconia, zinc oxide, indium tin oxide, ceria, and mixtures thereof and/or when said metal oxide particles are a fumed metal oxide particle.

2 . The pigmented composition according to claim 1 , wherein said composition has a change in color (ΔE) of less than 10 after 8 hours at heating at more than 80° C.

3 . The pigmented composition according to claim 1 , wherein said titanium dioxide consists predominantly of rutile phase titanium dioxide.

4 - 5 . (canceled)

6 . The pigmented composition according to claim 1 , wherein said metal oxide particles is a fumed metal oxide particle.

7 . The pigmented composition according to claim 6 , wherein said metal oxide particles comprise fumed alumina.

8 . The pigmented composition according to claim 1 , wherein the weight ratio of said pigmentary titanium dioxide and said organic pigments to said metal oxide particles is from 100:1 to 1:100.

9 . The pigmented composition according to claim 1 , wherein the weight ratio of said pigmentary titanium dioxide and said organic pigments to said metal oxide particles is from 100:1 to 1:1.

10 . The pigmented composition according to claim 1 , wherein the weight ratio of said organic pigments to said pigmentary TiO 2 is between 20:1 and 1:20.

11 . The pigmented composition according to claim 1 , further comprising water and/or glycerin.

12 . The pigmented composition according to claim 1 , wherein said composition is in the form of an emulsion.

13 - 15 . (canceled)

16 . The pigmented composition according to claim 1 , wherein said organic pigments comprise Red 7 and/or Red 6 and/or Red 27 and/or Blue 1 and/or Yellow 5 and/or Red 33.

17 . The pigmented composition according to claim 1 , wherein said organic pigments comprise between 5% and 40% Red 7 by weight of the composition.

18 . The pigmented composition according to claim 1 , wherein said composition further comprises wax.

19 . The pigmented composition according to claim 18 , wherein said wax comprises paraffin wax, microcrystalline petroleum wax, or combinations thereof.

20 . The pigmented composition according to claim 1 , wherein said composition is in the form of a solid stick, a liquid, a cream, a lotion, or a powder.

21 . (canceled)

22 . A pigmented composition in the form of a glycerin-in-oil emulsion comprising:

(a) from 0.1% to 10% rutile pigmentary TiO 2 by weight of the composition; and

(b) from 1% to 10% organic pigments by weight of the composition;

(c) from 0.1% to 10% fumed alumina by weight of the composition;

(d) from 20% to 50% silicone by weight of the composition; and

(e) from 1% to 50% glycerin by weight of the composition;

wherein the weight ratio of said pigmentary titanium dioxide and said organic pigments to said metal oxide particles in said composition is greater than 1:1.

23 . The pigmented composition according to claim 22 , wherein the weight ratio of said organic pigments to said rutile pigmentary TiO 2 is between 20:1 and 1:20.

24 . The pigmented composition according to claim 22 , wherein the weight ratio of said pigmentary titanium dioxide and said organic pigments to said fumed alumina is from 100:1 to 1:1.

25 . The pigmented composition according to claim 22 , wherein the weight ratio of said rutile pigmentary titanium dioxide and said organic pigments to said fumed alumina in said composition is greater than 1:1.

26 . A method for coloring a human integument comprising applying to said human integument a composition according to claim 1 .

27 - 29 . (canceled)
