  • SPF is a commonly used measure of photo protection of a sunscreen against erythema. This number is derived from another parameter, the minimal erythemal dose (MED). MED is defined as the "least exposure dose at a specified wavelength that will elicit a delayed erythema response.” The MED indicates the amount of energy irradiating the skin and the responsiveness of the skin to the radiation.
  • the SPF of a particular photo protector is obtained by dividing the MED of protected skin by the MED of unprotected skin. The higher the SPF, the more effective the agent in preventing sunburn. The SPF value tells how many times longer a person can stay in the sun before the person will experience 1 MED.
  • utilizing a sunscreen with an SPF of 6 will allow an individual to stay in the sun six times longer before receiving 1 MED.
  • SPF value of a sunscreen increases, the less chance exists for development of tanning of the skin.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Exposure to ultraviolet light, primarily through exposure to the sun's rays, produces a number of harmful effects including premature skin aging, loss of elasticity, wrinkling, drying, and an increased risk of developing skin cancer. Currently a number of sunscreen products are marketed to protect against these harmful effects. AU of these products contain agents known to filter out some of the sun's harmful rays incorporated into creams, ointments, lotions, solutions or suspensions. Such products are applied just prior to anticipated sun exposure, provide short term protection, and are removed by bathing, washing or normal desquamation of skin. Soap in the form of bodywash has for years been used to remove oil due to its surfactant composition and associated charges. A normal soap contains both charges of a positive and negative nature. Although attempts have been made to combine sunscreens with soaps (i.e., surfactant agents), none has provided an ideal combination of high sun protection factor (SPF) and long-lasting effect in a composition that maintains its integrity. Other additives in addition to sunscreen are also potentially useful when applied in conjunction with a bodywash, but at present few products utilize this potential. The current invention addresses these lacks.

[0007] AU publications and patent applications mentioned in this specification are herein incorporated by reference to the same extent as if each individual publication or patent application was specifically and individually indicated to be incorporated by reference. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0008] The present invention encompasses compositions containing one or more active ingredients (also referred to herein as "actives") that may be added to a bodywash composition to provide an active/bodywash combination. The invention also encompasses a bodywash containing such an active ingredient. In some embodiments, the active ingredient is one or more sunscreens. The invention further encompasses methods of use and manufacture of the compositions, and business methods. [0009] As used herein, "bodywash" encompasses all cleansing vehicles applied to the body. Exemplary forms of cleansing vehicles include, but are not limited to, liquid, bar, gel, foam, aerosol or pump spray, cream, lotion, stick, powder, or incorporated into a patch or a towelette. In addition, soapless cleansers may be used as well. The bodywash can be made into any suitable product form. Thus, as used herein, "bodywash" includes, but is not limited to, a soap including liquid and bar soap; a shampoo; a hair conditioner; a shower gel; including an exfoliating shower gel; a foaming bath product (e.g. gel, soap or lotion); a milk bath; a soapless cleanser, including a gel cleanser, a liquid cleanser and a cleansing bar; moist towelletes; a body lotion; a body spray, mist or gel; bath effervescent tablets (e.g., bubble bath); a hand and nail cream; a bath/shower gel; a shower cream; a depilatory cream; a shaving product e.g. a shaving cream, gel, foam or soap, an after-shave, after-shave moisturizer; and combinations thereof, and any other composition used for cleansing or post-cleansing application to the body, including the skin and hair. Especially useful as bodywashes in the invention are soaps, e.g., liquid soaps and bar soaps, and shampoos.
I. Compositions [0010] In one aspect, the invention provides additives containing active ingredients, where the additive is designed to be added to a bodywash (e.g., soap or shampoo). In some embodiments, the invention provides sunscreen compositions ("sunscreen additives") that may be added to a bodywash preparation to impart sun protection. In some embodiments, the invention provides a combination of a sunscreen additive and a bodywash preparation ("sunscreen/bodywash"). Thus, a sunscreen additive of the invention may be mixed with a conventional bodywash; alternatively, the invention provides pre-mixed sunscreen/bodywash. In either case, the sunscreen/bodywash composition is generally applied in the same manner as the bodywash alone and, typically, rinsed, with additive, e.g., sunscreen protection, being left on the skin after rinsing. In some cases, e.g., soapless cleansers, the bodywash is applied without rinsing. For sunscreen additives as part of a sunscreen/bodywash, the sunscreen protection after application and, typically, rinsing is, on average, greater than an SPF of 1, up to about SPF 50. As used herein in the context of SPF, "average SPF" is the SPF, determined as described herein, for about 5 to about 50 subjects, or about 5 to about 20 subjects, or about 5 to about 10 subjects, where the subjects preferably have Type II skin. In some embodiments, the average SPF provided by the sunscreen/bodywash after rinsing is about 1 to about 50, or about 2 to about 50, or about 2 to about 40, or about 2 to about 30, or about 2 to about 20, or about 2 to about 10, or about 2 to about 5, or about 5 to about 25, or about 5 to about 20, or about 5 to about 15, or about 5 to about 10. In some embodiments, the average SPF provided by the sunscreen/bodywash, after rinsing, is above about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, or 20. In some preferred embodiments, the average SPF after rinsing is above about 2. In some preferred embodiments, the average SPF after rinsing is above about 5. In some preferred embodiments, the average SPF after rinsing is above about 10. In some preferred embodiments, the average SPF after rinsing is above about 15. In some embodiments, the average SPF provided by the sunscreen/bodywash of the invention remains above about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, or 20, for an average of at least about 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, or more than about 10 hours after rinsing, hi some embodiments the average SPF provided by the sunscreen/bodywash of the invention increases with each additional washing after a first wash, so that after a second, third, fourth, or fifth wash, the SPF provided can be above about 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 15,, 20, 25, 30, 40, 45, or more than about 45. SPF is a commonly used measure of photo protection of a sunscreen against erythema. This number is derived from another parameter, the minimal erythemal dose (MED). MED is defined as the "least exposure dose at a specified wavelength that will elicit a delayed erythema response." The MED indicates the amount of energy irradiating the skin and the responsiveness of the skin to the radiation. The SPF of a particular photo protector is obtained by dividing the MED of protected skin by the MED of unprotected skin. The higher the SPF, the more effective the agent in preventing sunburn. The SPF value tells how many times longer a person can stay in the sun before the person will experience 1 MED. For example, utilizing a sunscreen with an SPF of 6 will allow an individual to stay in the sun six times longer before receiving 1 MED. As the SPF value of a sunscreen increases, the less chance exists for development of tanning of the skin. Typically, commercially available sunscreening products have SPF values ranging from about 2 to 45. [00Ϊ2] ' Methods for measuring SPF are described in, e.g., FDA monograph C.F.R. 21. A method for applying the sunscreen prior to measurement is as follows: Wet 50 cm square area of testing site with 10 ml of water delivered with a syringe. Apply test sample as per FDA monograph to area. Work lather on the subject for 3 minutes to allow the product to absorb into the skin. Rinse area after 2 additional minutes with 20ml of water. Pat dry and allow 15 minutes before exposure to radiation as per FDA monograph.
[0013] In some embodiments, after application of the bodywash containing the additive
(e.g., sunscreen) to the skin followed by rinsing, the additive (e.g., sunscreen) penetrates to an average of at least about 5 microns beneath the skin surface. In some embodiments, the additive penetrates to an average of at least about 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100,120, or 150 microns beneath the skin surface. In some embodiments, after application of the bodywash containing the additive (e.g., sunscreen) to the skin followed by rinsing, the additive (e.g., sunscreen) penetrates to an average of no more than about 30 microns beneath the skin surface. In some embodiments, the additive penetrates to an average of no more than about 50, 40, 30, 25, 20, 15, 10, or 5 microns beneath the skin surface. In some embodiments, after application of the bodywash containing the additive (e.g., sunscreen) to the skin followed by rinsing, the additive (e.g., sunscreen) penetrates to an average of about 5 to about 50, or about 5 to about 40, or about 5 to about 30, or about 10 to about 40, or about 15 to about 40, or about 20 to about 40, or about 5, 10, 15,
20, 25, 30, 25, 40, 45, or 50 microns beneath the skin surface. Depth of penetration may be tested by tape stripping methods, as are well-known in the art.

In some embodiments, the sunscreen additives or sunscreen/bodywashes of the invention include more than one organic sunscreen (e.g., at least one UVB absorber and at least one UVA absorber) and at least one inorganic sunscreen.
[0023] In preferred embodiments, one or more of the sunscreens used in the invention are encapsulated. [0024] Any sunscreen known in the art or apparent to the skilled artisan may be used in the invention. The term "sunscreen" or "sunscreen agent" as used herein defines ultraviolet ray-blocking compounds exhibiting absorption or blockage within the wavelength region between about 290 and 420 nm. Sunscreens may be classified into five groups based upon their chemical structure: para-amino benzoates; salicylates; cinnamates; benzophenones; and miscellaneous chemicals including menthyl anthralinate and digalloyl trioleate. Inorganic sunscreens may also be used including titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, iron oxide and polymer particles such as those of polyethylene and polyamides. [0025] Specific suitable sunscreens include, for example: p-aminobenzoic acid, its salts and its derivatives (ethyl, isobutyl, glyceryl esters; p-dimethylaminobenzoic acid);

Other cosmetically-acceptable sunscreens and concentrations (percent by weight of the total cosmetic sunscreen composition) include diethanolamine methoxycinnamate (10% or less), ethyl-[bis(hydroxypropyl)]aminobenzoate (5% or less), glyceryl aminobenzoate (3% or less), 4-isopropyl dibenzoylmethane (5% or less), 4- methylbenzylidene camphor (6% or less), terephthalylidene dicamphor sulfonic acid
(10% or less), and sulisobenzone (also called benzophenone-4, 10% or less). [0026] In preferred embodiments, sunscreens are FDA-approved or approved for use in the European Union. For example, FDA-approved sunscreens may be used, singly or, preferably, in combination. See, e.g., U.S. Patent Nos. 5,169,624; 5, 543,136; 5,849,273; 5,904,917; 6,224,852; 6,217,852; and Segarin et al., chapter ViI, pages 189 of Cosmetics
Science and Technology, and Final Over-the-Counter Drug Products Monograph on Sunscreens (Federal Register, 1999:64:27666-27963), all of which are incorporated herein by reference. [0027] For example, for a product marketed in the United States, preferred cosmetically- acceptable sunscreens and concentrations (reported as a percentage by weight of the total cosmetic sunscreen composition, and referring to the final percentage of the sunscreen after addition to the bodywash) include: aminobenzoic acid (also called para- aminobenzoic acid and PABA; 15% or less; a UVB absorbing organic sunscreen), avobenzone (also called butyl methoxy dibenzoylmethane; 3% or less, a UVA I absorbing organic sunscreen), cinoxate (also called 2-ethoxyethyl p-methoxycinnamate;

[0028] For a product marketed in the European Union, preferred cosmetically-acceptable photoactive compounds and concentrations (reported as a percentage by weight of the total cosmetic sunscreen composition, and referring to the final percentage of the sunscreen after addition to the bodywash) include: PABA (5% or less), camphor benzalkonium methosulfate (6% or less), homosalate (10% or less), benzophenone-3 (10% or less), phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid (8% or less, expressed as acid), terephthalidene dicamphor sulfonic acid (10% or less, expressed as acid), butyl niethoxydibenzoylmethane (5% or less), benzylidene camphor sulfonic acid (6% or less, expressed as acid), octocrylene (10% or less, expressed as acid), polyacrylamidomethyl benzylidene camphor (6% or less), octyl methoxycinnamate (10% or less), PEG-25 PABA (10% or less), isoamyl p-methoxycinnamate (10% or less), ethylhexyl triazone (5% or less), drometrizole trielloxane (15% or less), diethylhexyl butamido triazone (10% or less), 4-methylbenzylidene camphor (4% or less), 3-benzylidene camphor (2% or less), ethylhexyl salicylate (5% or less), ethylhexyl dimethyl PABA (8% or less), benzophenone-4 (5%, expressed as acid), methylene bis-benztriazolyl tetramethylbutylphenol (10% or less), disodium phenyl dibenzimidazole tetrasulfonate (10% or less, expressed as acid), bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenol triazine (10% or less), methylene bisbenzotriazolyl tetramethylbutylphenol (10% or less, also called TINOSORB M), and bisethylhexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyl triazine.(10% or less, also called TINOSORB S).
[0029] In some embodiments, the sunscreen additives or sunscreen/bodywashes of the invention include a silicone long-chain molecule with chromophores, e.g., PARASOL SLX (DSM Nutritional Products), which contains benzyl malonate chromophores attached to specific points on a polysiloxane chain. Thus, in some embodiments, the invention provides a sunscreen additive or sunscreen/bodywash composition that contains sunscreen that comprises a silicone long-chain molecule with chromophores. For example, compositions of the invention include a composition containing octyl methoxycinnamate, octocrylene, avobenzone, titanium dioxide, and a silicone long-chain molecule with chromophores. The silicon long-chain molecule may be used in sunscreen additives at about 0.5 to about 5%, or in sunscreen/bodywashes at about 0.2 to about 2%. [0030] Inorganic physical blockers of UVA and UVB useful in the invention further include iron oxide and polymer particles such as those of polyethylene and polyamides. [0031] In some embodiments, the sunscreen additives and sunscreen/bodywashes contain at least one sunscreen active that is cinnamate (e.g., Octylmethoxycinnamate (ethyl hexyl methoxycinnamate), (available under the tradename PARSOL MCX), oxybenzone (e.g., benzophenone-3 (2-Hydroxy4-Methoxybenzophenone), avobenzone (4-tert-Butyl-4'- methoxydibenzoylmethane or PARSOL 1789), octyl salicylate (2-Ethylhexyl Salicylate), octocrylene (2-Ethylhexyl 2-Cyano-3,3-Diphenylacrylate), methyl anthranilate, and/or titanium dioxide, or combinations thereof.
[0032] Sunscreen additives and sunscreen/bodywashes of the invention may, in some embodiments, contain as a sunscreen component only titanium dioxide. When titanium dioxide is used in compositions of the invention, either alone or in combination with other sunscreens, the titanium dioxide can have an anatase, rutile, or amorphous structure. The titanium dioxide particles can be uncoated or can be coated with a variety of materials including, but not limited to, aluminum compounds such as aluminum oxide, aluminum stearate, aluminum laurate and the like; phospholipids such as lecithin; silicone compounds; and mixtures thereof. Various grades and forms of titanium dioxide are described in CTFA Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary, Third Edition (1982), pp. 318- 319; U.S. Pat. No. 4,820,508 to Wortzman, issued Apr.l 1, 1989; and World Patent No.
WO 90/11067 to Elsom et al, published Oct. 4, 1990; these three references are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety. Suitable grades of titanium dioxide for use in the compositions of the present invention are available commercially such as the MT micronized series from Tri-K Industries (Emerson, NJ). These micronized titanium dioxides generally have a mean primary particle size ranging from about 10 nm to about
50 nm. For example, titanium dioxide having a mean primary particle size of about 15 nm is available under the trade designations MT-15OW (uncoated) and MT-100T (coated with stearic acid and aluminum compounds). Uncoated titanium dioxides having mean primary particle sizes of around 35 nm and around 50 nm are available under the trade designations MT-500B and MT-600B, respectively. Other coated titanium dioxides having a mean primary particle size around 15 nm include MT-100F (modified with stearic acid and iron hydroxide) and MT-100S (treated with lauric acid and aluminum hydroxide). Mixtures of two or more types and particle size variations of titanium dioxide can be used in the present invention. [0033] A particularly preferred form of titanium dioxide is silica-coated TiO2. Such a silica-coated TiO2 is available under the tradename T-AVO (Eusolex). [0034] If a zinc compound is chosen as the inorganic sunscreen, some zinc-based compositions (e.g., Z-CoteTM HPl [registered trademark, SkinCeuticals]) provide micro-fine zinc oxide coated with a form of dimethicone. As expressed by the manufacturer, the dimethicone coating transforms the frequently granular and pasty particles of zinc oxide to a smooth formulation which is transparent. The micronizing of these particles achieves the important advantage of providing effective sunscreening without giving the appearance of skin coated with white paint. [0035] Also to be noted in relation to inorganic blockers are Tioveil and Spectraveil (both of the Tioxide Group). Tioveil include products which are 40% dispersions of surface-treated titanium dioxide in a range of cosmetic vehicles. Spectraveil include products which are 60% dispersions of zinc oxide in a range of cosmetic vehicles. In certain variations, these products may be film-formers and may have advantageous uses here. [0036] In sunscreen additives, the total sunscreens comprise about 0.1-50%, or about 1-
30%, or about 1-25%, or about 3-25%, or about 5-25%, or about 10-25% or about 15- 25%, or about 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, or 50% of the composition (all percentages herein are weight percent unless otherwise specified). In sunscreen/bodywash compositions, the total sunscreens can comprise 0.05-30%, or about 0.5-15%, or about 0.5-12%, or about 1.5-12%, or about 2.5-12%, or about 5-12% or about 7-12%, or about 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10, 12.5, 15, 20, 25, 30, 33, 35, 40, 45, 50, or more than 50% of the composition. [0037] In some embodiments, a sunscreen additive of the invention includes octyl methoxycinnamate at about 4.5-9% , Octocrylene at about 0.5-15%, Avobenzone (e.g., PARSOL 1789) at about 2-4%, and titanium dioxide at about 3-9%. In some embodiments, the octyl methoxy ciniiamate is encapsulated, e.g., in amorphous silica. Such encapsulated octyl methoxy cinnamate is commercially available under the trade name UV PEARLS; about 20-40% UV PEARLS supplies about 4.5-9% octyl methoxy cinnamate. In some embodiments, a sunscreen additive of the invention includes octyl methoxycinnamate at about 7.6% (in some embodiments, encapsulated as described, e.g., in UV PEARLS wherein the UV PEARLS are provided at about 33.3%), Octocrylene at about 11.3 %, Avobenzone (PARSOL 1789) at about 2.8%, and titanium dioxide at about 6.4%. The sunscreen additives may further include a polyquatemium, e.g., polyquaternium-4. In some embodiments, the polyquaternium-4 is present at about 0.5% to about 5%, in some embodiments, the polyquaternium-4 is present at about 2.8%. The sunscreen additives may further include a film-former, which may comprise dimethicone and/or petrolatum, and/or a preservative, such as BHT. This sunscreen additive may be added to a conventional bodywash formulation (e.g., SUAVE Bodywash) in a ratio of about one part sunscreen additive to two parts bodywash (w/w). Other ratios are encompassed by the invention, e.g., about one part sunscreen additive to about 0.2, 0.5,
0.7 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 2.8, 2.9, 3.0, 3.2, 3.5, 3.7, 4.0, 4.2, 4.5, 4.7, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, 10, 12, 15, or 20 parts bodywash (w/w). [0038] It will be appreciated by those of skill in the art that the various ingredients of the sunscreen additive may be added to the bodywash all at once, or in groups, or separately.
In some embodiments, the sunscreen additive comprises at least two components. For example, the first component may comprise all the ingredients except an inorganic or physical blocker sunscreen, and the second component may comprise the inorganic or physical blocker sunscreen. The first component is added to the bodywash with thorough mixing, then the second component is added. For example, in some embodiments, all ingredients except the titanium dioxide are mixed, then added to the bodywash, and then the titanium dioxide is added (see Examples).
[0039] In some embodiments, the sunscreen additives of the invention include about 0.1 to 7.5 weight percent of octylmethoxy cinnamate, about 0.1 to 6 parts weight percent of octyl salicylate, about 0.1 to 5 parts weight percent of oxybenzone, about 1 to 10 weight percent of cationic surfactant, and about 0.01 to 1 weight percent of a quaternized compound. These composition may further include a film former. These compositions may further include 0.01 to 1 weight percent of a preservative.
[0040] Encapsulation Sunscreens and other actives used in the invention may be encapsulated. One or more of the sunscreens used in a composition may be encapsulated; preferably, all sunscreens used are encapsulated. Sunscreen actives may be encapsulated together, or may be encapsulated separately, in any combination, in the same or in different types of encapsulations. Generally, encapsulation involves trapping the sunscreen in, e.g., a vesicle. Depending on the vesicle of choice, the vesicle may break open when applied, without being limited by theory, it is thought that the vesicle breaks open in various types of encapsulation due to friction, temperature, or pH from the skin or hair, or some combination of these. By choosing the appropriate capsule and additives for the system, the stability, durability, and/or SPF provided by the sunscreen additives and sunscreen/bodywashes of the invention can be increased.
[0041] Any means of encapsulation known in the art, including but not limited to liposomes, maltodextrin capsules, silica gels, siloxanes, and the like, may be used in the compositions of the invention. A cationic or catanionic in dry powder form may also be used to encapsulate sunscreen. Commercial embodiments of encapsulated sunscreens or vehicles suitable for encapsulating sunscreens include CATEZOMES (Engelhard Corp.),
EUSOLEX UV PEARLS (EMD Biosciences), and others known in the art. Methods of encapsulation suitable for delivering benefit agents that are mixed with a bodywash composition are well-known in the art. See, e.g., U.S. Patent Nos. 6,825,161; 6,436,375; 6,238,650; 6,468,509, 6,362,146; 6,074,630; 5,455,048; 5,770,556; 5,955,409; 5,876,755; 4,803,195; 5,508,259; 4,749,501 ; 6,248,703 ; 5,476,660; and 4,904,524 and EP Pat. Nos.
0,254,447; 0,025,379; and 0,399,911.
[0042] A particularly preferred method of encapsulation is sol-gel encapsulation. This technique is described in, e.g., U.S. Patent Nos. 6,238,650; 6,436,375, 6,303,149; and 6,468,509. Any or all of the sunscreens and/or other active ingredients of the compositions of the invention may be encapsulated by such sol-gel encapsulation. The sol-gel capsules maybe prepared so as to have a surface charge, e.g., a cationic charge. This is advantageous in that otherwise water-insoluble components may be encapsulated within the microcapsules, which are then freely miscible in water, e.g., without the need for an emulsifying agent. For example, in some embodiments, a UVA absorber, a UVB absorber (e.g., octyl methoxycinnamate) and/or a physical blocker, e.g., titanium dioxide, is provided as a silica sol-gel encapsulate, optionally with further ingredients including PVP, Chlorphenesin, and an antioxidant such as BHT. A commercial embodiment of such an encapsulation containing octyl methoxycinnamate, PVP, chlorphenesin, and BHT, is available under the trade name EUSOLEX UV PEARLS (EMD Biosciences). Such a silica sol-gel encapsulated UVB absorber, e.g., octyl methoxycinnamate, may be used in a sunscreen additive at a concentration that results in a final concentration of the UVB absorber of about 1% to about 40%, or about 2% to about 20%, or about 2% to about 10%, or about 5% to about 10%, or about 6%, 7%, 7.4%, 7.5%, 7.6%, 8%, or 9%. The preferred final concentration is about 7.6%. In other embodiments, more than one sunscreen is encapsulated as silica sol-gel encapsulate. In these embodiments, the final concentration of each of the sunscreens, independently, in the final sunscreen additive, is about 1% to about 40%, or about 2% to about 20%, or about 2% to about 10%, or about 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 7.5%, 8%, 9%, or 10%. The sunscreens may be encapsulated together or separately, or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, the invention provides an additive for addition to a bodywash that includes a sunscreen encapsulated in a sol-gel microcapsule and a cationic polymer (described below). Further ingredients in these embodiments may include a film former, antioxidant, preservative, chelating agent, thickener, emollient, and/or other active and inactive ingredients as described herein. [0043] In some embodiments wherein encapsulation, e.g., sol-gel microencapsulation, is utilized, the composition of the microcapsule, e.g., sol- gel microcapsule, may be varied so as to allow for varying amounts of the active, e.g., sunscreen, within the microcapsule to be released. The microcapsules, e.g., sol-gel microcapsules, can be prepared so as to experience no or minimal breakage when applied to the skin and when left on the skin. Alternatively, the microcapsules, e.g., sol-gel microcapsules, can be prepared so as to experience various degrees of breakage, on average, when applied to the skin and when left on the skin. Thus, the microcapsules, e.g., sol-gel microcapsules, may be prepared so as to experience about 0% breakage, or breakage in a range from about 0.1, 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, or 90% to about 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, or 90%, after application (or application and rinsing in the case of a or bodywash containing the microcapsules). Furthermore, the microcapsules may be formulated so as to break open in response to conditions that occur on the skin, so that after application the microcapsules act to release their contents in a time-release or controlled manner. Non- limiting exemplary skin or hair conditions that can vary with the user's environment, the variation of which can trigger breakage of microcapsules, include pH, temperature, friction, exposure to light or air, pressure, and the like.
[0044] Other forms of immobilization or entrapment of sunscreen and other active components are also useful. For example, as a further variant of the use of chemical sunscreen agents, compositions of the invention may employ an organic sunscreen such as octyl methoxycinnamate trapped within a matrix. A commercial example of such a composition is found in SunCapsTM) (trademark, SkinCeuticals) in which the organic sunscreen molecules are evenly distributed throughout the particle. B. Non-sunscreen actives
[0045] In one aspect, the invention provides additives containing non-sunscreen active ingredients, where the additive is designed to be added to a composition for topical application, e.g., a bodywash. These actives may be used in combination with the sunscreens described above in a sunscreen additive or sunscreen/bodywash, or may be used in separate, non-sunscreen compositions. In some embodiments, at least one of the actives is encapsulated. In another aspect, the invention provides a composition for topical application, e.g., a bodywash, containing one or more such actives. These actives may be used in combination with the sunscreens described above in a sunscreen additive or sunscreen/bodywash, or may be used in separate, non-sunscreen compositions.
[0046] Non-limiting examples of non-sunscreen actives useful in compositions of the invention include sunless tanning actives, skin lightening actives, anti-acne actives, anti- skin wrinkling and anti-skin aging actives, vitamins, anti-inflammatory actives, anesthetic actives, analgesic actives, anti-pruritic actives, anti-microbial actives (e.g. antifungals, antibacterials, and antiparasitics), anti-virals, anti-allergenics, medicinal actives (e.g., skin rash, skin disease and dermatitis medications), anti-cellulite additives, insect repellant actives, antioxidants, hair growth promoters, hair growth inhibitors, hair bleaching agents, deodorant compounds, and mixtures and combinations thereof. [0047] Sunless tanning actives include dihydroxyacetone (DHA); glyceryl aldehyde; tyrosine and tyrosine derivatives such as malyltyrosine, tyrosine glucosinate, and ethyl tyrosine; phospho-DOPA, indoles and derivatives; and mixtures thereof [0048] Non-limiting examples of skin lightening actives include EMBLICA (also an antioxidant), monobenzone (a depigmenting agent), kojic acid, arbutin, ascorbic acid and derivatives thereof (e.g., magnesium ascorbyl phosphate or sodium ascorbyl phosphate), and extracts (e.g., mulberry extract, placental extract). Non-limiting examples of skin lightening agents suitable for use herein also include those described in WO 95/34280, WO 95/07432, and WO 95/23780. [0049] Vitamins may be included in the compositions of the present invention. Examples include Vitamin A and derivatives thereof (including, for example, retinol, see anti- wrinkling actives), ascorbic acid (Vitamin C and derivatives), Vitamin B (e.g., riboflavin, vitamin B2), biotin, Vitamin D (all forms), Vitamin E and derivatives thereof such as tocopheryl acetate, beta-carotene, pantothenic acid and mixtures thereof. [0050] Anti-acne actives include benzoyl peroxide, erythromycin, clindamycin phosphate, 5,7-dichloro-8-hydroxyquinoline, resorcinol, resorcinol acetate, salicylic acid, azaleic acid, long chain dicarboxylic acids, sulfur, zinc, various natural agents such as tnose derived, irom green tree, and mixtures thereof.

[0051] Anti-skin wrinkling actives include a variety of agents, often in combination, that prevent or treat wrinkling through a variety of actions. Many approaches are taken to reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles based on the understanding of the molecular basis of wrinkle formation. Such treatments include cosmetic products, drug therapy and surgical procedures. For example, many cosmetic products contain hydroxy acids, which may stimulate collagen synthesis. Another common treatment utilizes retinol, retinoic, retinol palmitate, a derivative of vitamin A, (or its stronger, prescribed version Retin-A and Renova) which helps collagen production. Bicyclic aromatic compounds with retinoid-type activity, which are useful in particular in preventing or treating various keratinization disorders, are described in EP 679 630. These compounds are particularly active for repairing or combating chronological or actinic ageing of the skin, for example such as in anti-wrinkle products. Antioxidants such as vitamin C and E and coenzyme Q-
10 are believed to counteract free radicals, which damage cells and cause aging and have been used in treatments of wrinkles. Recently, the FDA approved cosmetic use of Botox (an extremely diluted form of botulinum toxin) to treat glabella frown lines. Thus non- sunscreen actives of the invention that are anti-skin aging or anti-wrinkling actives may contain, alone or in combination, the bicyclic aromatic compounds defined above, other compounds which have retinoid-type activity, free-radical scavengers, hydroxy or keto acids or derivatives thereof. The term "free-radical scavenger" refers to, for example, a- tocopherol, superoxide dismutase, ubiquinol or certain metal-chelating agents. Hydroxy acids include, e.g., alpha-hydroxy acids such as lactic acid and glycolic acid or beta- hydroxy acids such as salicylic acid and salicylic acid derivatives such as the octanoyl derivative; other hydroxy acids and keto acids include malic, citric, mandelic, tartaric or glyceric acids or the salts, amides or esters thereof. [0052] Other anti-wrinkling agents and anti-skin aging agents useful in the invention include sulfur-containing D and L amino acids and their derivatives and salts, particularly the N-acetyl derivatives, a preferred example of which is N-acetyl-L-cysteine; thiols, e.g. ethane thiol; fat-soluble vitamins, ascorbyl palmitate, ceramides, pseudoceramides (e.g., pseudoceramides described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,198,210; 4,778,823; 4,985,547; 5,175,321, all of which are incorporated by reference herein), phospholipids (e.g., distearoyl lecithin phospholipid), fatty acids, fatty alcohols, cholesterol, plant sterols, phytic acid, lipoic acid; lysophosphatidic acid, and skin peel agents (e.g., phenol and the like), and mixtures thereoi. .Preferred fatty acids or alcohols are those that have straight or branched alkyl chains containing 12-20 carbon atoms. A particularly preferred fatty acid is linoleic acid since linoleic acid assists in the absorption of ultraviolet light and furthermore is a vital component of the natural skin lipids.

[0076] The compositions of the present invention may contain a wide range of additional active components. The CTFA Cosmetic Ingredient Handbook, Seventh Edition, 1997 and the Eighth Edition, 2000, which are incorporated by reference herein in its entirety, describes a wide variety of active ingredients commonly used in skin care compositions, which are suitable for use in the compositions of the present invention. Other topically- active compounds are listed in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 20th Ed., Lippincott Williams & Witkins, Baltimore, MD (2000) (hereinafter Remington's), U.S. Pharmacopeia and National Formulary, The United States Pharmacopeial Convention, Inc., Rockville, Md. and Physician's Desk Reference, Medical Economics Co., Inc., Oradell, N J.incorporated herein by reference. [0077] The non-sunscreen active may be provided as is or in encapsulated form.
Encapsulation is described for sunscreen additives, above. Besides the encapsulated active, in some embodiments an additive or composition for topical application containing the active further includes a cationic polymer, as described herein, as well as, optionally, a film former, a preservative, and/or an antioxidant that is stable upon exposure to sunlight. Other components may be as described herein, hi some embodiments the additive or composition for topical application may comprise two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, or more than ten actives, each of which may be encapsulated or non-encapsulated, in any combination. [0078] hi preferred embodiments, the active is encapsulated sol-gel microcapsules, such as silica sol-gel microcapsules. Such microcapsules are described in U.S. Patent Nos. 6,238,650; 6,436,375, 6,303,149; and 6,468,509. Thus, in some embodiments the invention provides an additive for addition to a composition for topical application, where the additive comprises an encapsulated non-sunscreen active, and optionally further comprises a cationic polymer, hi other embodiments the invention provides a composition for topical application that contains an additive, where the additive comprises an encapsulated non-sunscreen active, and optionally further comprises a cationic polymer. Further ingredients include film formers, antioxidants, preservatives, and other ingredients as listed herein. The composition for topical application may be, e.g., a bodywash.
[0079] hi some embodiments the invention provides microcapsules, e.g., sol-gel microcapsules (e.g., as described in U.S. Patents No. 6,238,650; 6,436,375, 6,303,149; and 6,468,509) that act as a protective barrier on the skin when used either alone, or as an additive in a bodywash. hi these embodiments, the sol-gel microcapsules may be used without any additional active ingredients (i.e., empty) , providing a physical barrier, or they may be used with additional encapsulated active ingredients that enhance their barrier function. For example, the microcapsules may contain substances that act to screen toxic agents (e.g., biological or chemical warfare agents) or radiation (e.g., alpha, beta, or gamma radiation) partially or completely from penetrating the user's skin, hi some embodiments, the microcapsules may contain one or more agents that absorb radiation, such as graphite, lead, tungsten, and others known in the art, or agents that reflect radiation such as ceramic beads. As the microcapsules maybe designed so as to experience minimal or no breakage when applied to the skin, as well as to experience minimal penetration of the skin, it is possible to use even toxic substances (e.g., lead) that provide a screening effect, since these substances will not be released or will be released m only minimal amounts, l He microcapsules are eventually removed from the skin through repeated washing and/or normal sloughing of the external skin cell layers. Especially for agents used for one-time or very few exposures, such as can occur for personnel engaged in combating or containing terrorist attacks or in warfare, the invention provides a means to deliver a last line of defense on the skin of personnel where the active used in the microcapsules may be one that is not appropriate for long- term use, but that is appropriate for a limited number of applications in order to protect the wearer from a greater risk (e.g., microcapsules encapsulating lead to protect against a radiation attack). [0080] The microcapsules, e.g., sol-gel microcapsules, can be prepared so as to experience no or minimal breakage when applied to the skin, either as is or in the form of a bodywash. Alternatively, the microcapsules, e.g., sol-gel microcapsules, can be prepared so as to experience various degrees of breakage, on average, when applied as is or in a bodywash. Thus, the microcapsules, e.g., sol-gel microcapsules, may be prepared so as to experience about 0% breakage, or breakage in a range from about 0.1, 0.5, 1, 2,
5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, or 90% to about 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, or 90%, after application (or application and rinsing in the case of a bodywash containing the microcapsules). Furthermore, the microcapsules may be formulated so as to break open in response to conditions that occur on the skin, so that after application the microcapsules act to release their contents in a time-release or controlled manner. Non- limiting exemplary skin or hair conditions that can vary with the user's environment, the variation of which can trigger breakage of microcapsules, include pH, temperature, friction, exposure to light or air, pressure, and the like.
C. Cationic component
[0081] In some embodiments the additives, e.g., sunscreen additives and sunscreen/bodywashes of the invention further include a cationic component. Without being bound by theory, it is thought that this component serves as a protein binder, to provide a positive charge to promote attachment of the composition to proteins of the skin and hair, thus increasing retention of the components, e.g., sunscreen, after rinse and during normal activities. This positive charge creates a strong affinity for the protein in the hair or skin. Any means of imparting a positive charge may be used. [0082] Preferred means are by including one or more cationic polymers in the composition. Various cationic polymers may be used. Examples of cationic polymers are described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,224,852; 3,816,616; 4,272,515; 4,298,494; 4,080,310; 4,048"j3'0l; 4,009,256; and 3,186,911. Cationic polymers are available commercially, e.g., from Union Carbide Corp. under the trademark POLYMER JR., from Celanese- Stein Hall under the trademark JAGUAR, from GAF Corporation under the tradename Gafquatm and from Merck & Co., Inc under the trademark MERQUAT by. Representative one are Merquat 100, a highly charged cationic dimethyldiallylammonium chloride homopolymer, and Merquat™ 550, a highly charged cationic copolymer prepared with dimethyidiallylammonium chloride and acrylamide. These materials are designated in the CTFA dictionary as Quaternium40 and Quaternium-41, respectively. [0083] Especially preferred are polyquaterniums. Quaternized material in powder form, not limited to the polyquaterniums, may also be used. Exemplary polyquaterniums of use in the invention include polyquaternium-4, -7, -11, -22, -37, -44, -51, and -64. Poryquaternium compounds are available commercially, e.g., CELQUAT L-200 for polyquaternium-4. Further exemplary polyquaterniums can be quaternized copolymers of vinylpyrrolidone, methacrylamide, vinylimidiazole, and quaternized vinylimidiazole and or with vinyl caprolactum. They all range with different charge densities. We are mainly concerned with those of gretaer cationic charges. Some of the new polyquaterniums we havent listed are the 68, 46,16Without being limited by theory, it is thought that with the trapping of the encapsulate (e.g., sunscreen active inside the capsule) by this cationic component, rinse off is difficult and renders the active substantive to the protein in the skin and hair.
[0084] Useful in some embodiments of the invention is a dry cationic component, such as sold under the tradename CAE (Anjinomoto Co., Inc.), containing DL-pyrrolidone Carboxylic acid salt of L-Cocoyl Arginine Ethyl Ester, which is a cationic agent useful for binding to proteins and providing an antimicrobial effect.
[0085] In some embodiments of additives, e.g., sunscreen additives, the cationic component (e.g., cationic polymer) comprises about 0.1 to about 20%, or about 0.1 to about 10%, or about 0.5 to about 10%, or about 1 to about 10%, or about 0.5 to about 5%, or about 0.5 to about 3%or about 1 to about 5%, or about 1 to about 3%, or about 1% of the total composition. In some embodiments, the cationic component is polyquaternium-
4; in some embodiments the polyquaternium-4 is present at about 1%. [0086] In some embodiments of active/bodywashes, e.g., sunscreen/bodywashes, the cationic component (e.g., cationic polymer) comprises about 0.03 to about 7%, or about 0.03 to about 4%, or about 0.2 to about 4%, or about 0.3 to about 4%, or about 0.2 to about 2%, or about 0.3 to about 4%, or about 0.3 to about 1%,, or about 0.3 or 0.4% of the total composition, in some embodiments, the cationic component is polyquaternium- 4; in some embodiments the polyquaternium-4 is present at about 0.33%.
D. Film formers [0087] In some embodiments, compositions of the invention further include a component that provide a film barrier system, typically a hydrophobic layer that serves to maintain the residual sunscreen after rinse. Film barrier systems are well-known in the art and include, without limitation, petrolatum, silicon derivatives, and combinations thereof. Also useful are polymers with carboxylic ends which render themselves insoluble until neutralized. After being neutralized they can act as film formers. Film formers also include emollient esters, lanolin derivatives (e.g., acetylated lanolins), and superfatted oils. Film formers are available commercially, e.g., a preferred film former is MOISTUREGUARD™, which contains petrolatum, dimethicone, stearamidopropyl dimethylamine stearate, and tocopheryl acetate, available from Engelhard. [0088] It may also be desirable to add acrylic co-polymers to the formulations of the invention as film formers. An exemplary liquid acrylic copolymer formulation is DERMACRYL, marketed by National Starch and Chemical. Acrylic co-polymers may be included in sunscreen additives at about 0.1 to about 5%, or about 0.2 to about 3%, or about 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4%, or 0.5%, or in sunscreen/bodywashes at about 0.05 to about 2%, or about 0.1 to about 1%, or about 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4%, or 0.5%.
[0089] A secondary film former may also be used, e.g., keratin or other protein derivative in an amino acid complex such as cysteine.
[0090] The film former may be present in the sunscreen additive in the range of about
0.1 to about 25%, or about 1 to about 10%; or about 2 to about 6%; or about 3, 4, or 5%. In some embodiments, the film former MoistureGuard is used at a concentration of about
4.2%. Equivalent film formers, at equivalent concentrations, may also be used. [0091] As noted, some preparations may perform more than one function, for example, inorganic blockers such as Tioveil and Spectraveil (both of the Tioxide Group), in certain variations, may be film-formers and may have advantageous uses here. [0092] .hi addition, many emollients may also perform a film former function in that they provide a barrier on the skin. Thus, compositions of the invention may include water- insoluble emollients that include fatty acids such as oleic and stearic; fatty alcohols such as cetyl, and hexadecyl (ENJAY); esters such as diisopropyl adipate, benzoic acid esters of C9 -C15 alcohols, and isononyl iso-nonanoate; alkanes such as mineral oil; silicones; such as dimethyl polysiloxane and ethers such as polyoxypropylene butyl ethers and polyoxypropylene cetyl ethers. If a water-insoluble emollient is used it may be in an amount from about 2% to about 15% by weight, and most preferably from about 4% to about 10%.
[0093] Other useful film formers include polythylenes, such as those available from New Phase Technologies as PERFORMALENE 400, a polyethylene having a molecular weight of 400. Another suitable water-proofing agent is polyethylene 2000 (molecular weight of 2000), which is available from New Phase Technologies as PERFORMALENE 2000. [0094] Yet another suitable film former/waterproofing agent is synthetic wax, also available from New Phase Technologies as PERFORMA V-825.

Also see CTFA Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary, 4th Edition 1991, pages 509-514 for various long chain alkyl cationic surfactants; incorporated herein by reference.
[00130] The total surfactants, e.g., cationic surfactant, may be present in the sunscreen/bodywash at about 0.1 to about 20%, or about 0.1 to about 10%, or about 0.1 to about 5%, or about 0.5 to about 5%, or about 1 to about 10%, or about 1 to about 5%, or about 0.1 to about 2%, or about 1 to about 2%. In some embodiments, a sunscreen/bodywash composition of the invention contains a surfactant, e.g., a cationic surfactant, at about 1%.
[00131] hi addition to surfactants, other ingredients, as described above for additives, may be included in the additive/bodywash. Any component known in the art or useful in bodywashes may be used. [00132] hi some embodiments, soapless cleansers may be used in addition to, or instead of, soaps/surfactants. For example, Oilatum™ AD (registered trademark, Stiefel Laboratories), Aquanil (registered trademark, Person & Covey, Inc.), Cetaphil (trademark, Galderma Laboratories, Inc.) or SpectroDerm™ (registered trademark, Draxis Pharmaceutical Inc.), or their equivalents, may be utilized as a soapless component in the present invention.
[00133] As noted above, the sunscreen additives of the invention may also be combined with conventional bodywash compositions, as well as with shampoos for hair, and post- wash skincare compositions. Proportions for addition and mixing are given above as well as in more detail hereafter. An exemplary bodywash that may be used with additives of the invention is exemplified by SUAVE Body Wash. Ingredients of a typical
SUAVE bodywash include: Water, Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate, Ammonium Laureth Sulfate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Fragrance, Glycerin, Hydrolyzed Milk Protein & Honey Extract, PEG-10 Sunflower Glycerides, Cocamide MEA, Guar Hydroxypropylrimonium Chloride, Acrylates Copolymer, PEG-5 Cocamide, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil or Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil, Tetrasoidum EDTA, Propylene Glycol, Ammonium Chloride, Sodium Hydroxide, Methylchloroisothiazolinone, Methylisothiazolinone, Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891)
II. Methods A. Preparation
[00134] The compositions of the invention may be prepared by any suitable method. In one preferred method, a "Phase I," which is a "water phase," is prepared by mixing the more water-soluble components of the composition. For example, Polyquaternium-4, a film former (e.g., in MOISTUREGUARD), and encapsulated sunscreen (e.g., in UV PEARLS), may be mixed until uniform. A "Phase II," which is an "oil phase," is prepared by mixing the more hydrophobic components of the composition. For example, Avobenzone (e.g., PARSOL 1789) maybe mixed with Octocrylene, with heating, until dissolved. Then Phase I and Phase II are combined with gentle agitation, until a uniform composition is obtained (Phase III). Phase III may be further combined with a bodywash composition (e.g., SUAVE bodywash) and mixed until uniform. A further sunscreen, such as titanium dioxide, may be added to the Phase III/bodywash composition and mixed until uniform. Alternatively, the sunscreen may be added before addition to the bodywash or soap to provide an additive ready for formulation with a bodywash or soap.
B. Use
[00135] Additives, e.g., sunscreen additives of the invention are generally designed to be used in combination with a bodywash. Thus, the compositions of the invention are typically designed to be applied while washing. This characteristic facilitates ease of use and may have the added benefit of being cumulative. Compositions of the present invention are readily applied during washing in a suitable or effective amount and may be generally applied all over the body. Shampoos may be applied specifically to the hair. A selected amount of a composition may be applied directly to the skin or may be used through intermediate application to a washcloth, pad, sponge, or other applicator. After lathering, dirt and sloughed-off skin may be washed away by rinsing with water leaving behind one or more of the additives, e.g., sunscreen components. Additives of the invention, e.g., sunscreen additives of the invention are also useful in hair shampoos and conditioners, and in after- wash lotions. [00136] Thus, methods of the invention include methods for protection of skin from sunlight, comprising applying a bodywash comprising a sunscreen to the skin, wherein after application of the bodywash to skin and rinsing, the skin is protected from sunlight with an average SPF of at least about 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, or more than 20. In some preferred embodiments, the skin is protected from sunlight with an average SPF of at least about 2. In some preferred embodiments, the skin is protected from sunlight with an average SPF of at least about 5. In some preferred embodiments, the skin is protected from sunlight with an average SPF of at least about
10. In some preferred embodiments, the skin is protected from sunlight with an average SPF of at least about 15. In some embodiments, the bodywash is applied more than once; in these cases, the SPF may be cumulative and can increase with the second wash to, e.g., an average ofmore than 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 15, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, or more than about 45. In some embodiments the bodywash is applied once per day. In some embodiments, the bodywash is applied more than once per day, for example, 2, 3, 4, or more than 4 times per day. In some embodiments, the bodywash is applied about every other day. In some embodiments, the body wash is applied about 10, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 or 1 time per week. [00137] In these methods, the active additive, e.g., sunscreen, often does not penetrate beyond a certain level in the skin, typically due to encapsulation. Thus, in some embodiments of the methods of the invention, the active additive, e.g., sunscreen, does not penetrate more than about 10, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, or 50 microns into the skin with one washing with a bodywash containing the additive. In some embodiments, the active additive, e.g., sunscreen, does not penetrate more than about 10, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45,
50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 120, or 150 microns into the skin, even with repeated washings. [00138] In other embodiments the sunscreen or other additive is designed to penetrate into the skin, thus, in these embodiments, the active additive, e.g., sunscreen, penetrates to at least about 10, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, or 50 microns into the skin with one washing with a bodywash containing the additive. In some embodiments, the active additive, e.g., sunscreen, penetrates more than about 10, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 120, or 150 microns into the skin. In some embodiments this penetration occurs with a single washing and rinsing. In some embodiments this penetration occurs with repeated washings and rinsings. [00139] Any additive described herein, e.g., sunscreen additives, generally as a component of a bodywash, may be used in the methods of the invention. In some embodiments, the additive is a non-sunscreen additive and is encapsulated, e.g., in the form of sol-gel microcapsules. In these embodiments, the additive may be used in combination with a non- bodywash vehicle, such as a skin lotion, gel, cream, and the like, as are well-known in the art. [00140] While it is ordinarily preferred to use the compositions of the present invention in a manner similar to ordinary soap (i.e., wetting, application of composition, rinsing), it is also anticipated that the composition may be used by application without wetting followed by removal through, for example, wiping. This is the case for soapless cleansers.
C. Business Methods
[00141] The invention also encompasses methods of doing business in the field of topical delivery of cosmeceuticals and the transdermal delivery of pharmaceuticals using lathering products, including everyday soap and shampoo, as the delivery agents.
[00142] Consumers spend more than $30 billion annually on products that take advantage of topical and transdermal delivery methods. Despite enormous growth in this area, there have been few major innovations. Most delivery methods still rely on lotions, creams or patches. By combining a cosmetic or even pharmaceutical regimen with an activity as routine as washing up or showering, the business methods of the invention capture a significant share of the topical and transdermal delivery market. Products enable personal care product makers to secure a piece of the growing market for cosmeceuticals, like sunscreen, by enhancing existing product lines. They will also enable drug makers to offer consumers more appealing ways to administer prescription and over-the-counter pharmaceuticals
[00143] Business methods of the invention encompass a method of doing business comprising marketing an additive for use with an existing bodywash, wherein the additive, when combined with the bodywash, causes an additional effect to the normal effect of the soap or the bodywash. The business methods include methods involving any of the additives described herein, including sunscreens, insect repellants, anti-acne medications, anti-wrinkling agents, deodorants, and all others described herein In some embodiments, the methods include marketing a sunscreen benefit agent (additive) for use with a bodywash, e.g., bar and liquid soaps, and shampoos, to add the benefit of a sunscreen. The sunscreen may be any one of the sunscreen additives described herein. This embodiment is designed to appeal to soap manufacturers looking to broaden the market for their products among the growing population of consumers concerned about skin cancer and wrinkles. Generally, the benefit agent is marketed as a brand-neutral additive for use with existing brands. In some cases, a stand-alone brand may be created. [00144] The sunscreen or other benefit agent may be licensed as an additive, in both liquid and bar soap forms, to personal care product makers of all sizes, to enhance and differentiate their branded product offerings. The license may be exclusive or, preferably, non-exclusive. If exclusive, it may be exclusive in a defined geographical territory, for a defined time period (often with an option to renew or right of first refusal at the expiration of the time period), for a defined type of skin care product, or any combination of these. The methods also include supplying one or more customers with an option to license or buy the additive, generally for a defined period of time. As with licenses, such an option may be exclusive or non-exclusive. Alternatively, the sunscreen or other benefit agent may be manufactured and supplied to personal care product makers. A further alternative is to manufacture a stand-alone brand of soap/bodywash that includes the additive.
[00145] A further component of the business methods of the invention typically includes receiving payment for supplying the additive, license, or the like, to the customer. It will be appreciated that "payment" may be any form of consideration, included monetary consideration. Typically, license payments take the form of an up-front payment, royalties, license maintenance fees or some combination thereof. Also included in payment options are equity in the company receiving the additive or the license to the additive. It will be appreciated that any other form of consideration may also constitute payment in the business methods of the invention [00146] The business methods of the invention may further include manufacturing the additive and/or the additive/bodywash. In some embodiments, different entities perform different aspects; for example, a first entity may manufacture the additive and a second entity may market and/or distribute it. In some embodiments, a single entity performs both manufacturing and marketing. [00147] Business methods of the invention further include a method including the steps of: a) designing an additive for use in a personal care product; b) testing the additive for safety and effectiveness in humans; c) arranging for distribution and marketing of the additive. In some embodiments, steps a) and c) are performed by a first entity, typically a business entity, and step b) is performed by a second entity, such as a business entity or an academic entity. In some or these embodiments, step b) is performed as a joint venture between the two entities.
[00148] All publications and patent applications mentioned in this specification are herein incorporated by reference to the same extent as if each individual publication or patent application was specifically and individually indicated to be incorporated by reference. [00149] It will be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art that many changes and modification can be made to the disclosures presented herein without departing from the spirit or scope of the appended claims.
EXAMPLES
EXAMPLE 1 [00150] A sunscreen additive for addition to a bodywash was prepared as follows: To
13.7 g water was added 1 g of polyquaternium-4 (CELQUAT-200), 1.5 gm of MOISTUREGUARD, and 12 g of UV PEARLS. The mixture was stirred until uniform, to produce Phase I. Separately, 1 g of PARSOL 1789 was added to 4 g of Octocrylene with heating, and stirred until uniform, to produce Phase II. Phase I and Phase II were combined with gentle agitation until uniform to produce Phase III, a sunscreen additive. [00151] The sunscreen additive of Phase III was added to 64.5 g of SUAVE Bodywash and stirred until uniform. Finally, 2.3 g of titanium dioxide were added with stirring.
The final composition was a sunscreen/bodywash.
EXAMPLE 2
[00152] The sunscreen/bodywash of Example 1 was tested for SPF capability as follows:
50 cm2 of testing site was wetted with 10ml of water delivered with a syringe. The test sample was applied as per FDA monograph C.F.R. 21 to the area. Lather was worked into the subject for 3 minutes to allow the product to absorb into the skin. The area was rinsed after 2 additional minutes with 20ml of water, then the area was patted dry and allowed 15 minutes before exposure to radiation as per FDA monograph. The skin was exposed to UV radiation and the MED was noted and compared to the MED for skin without treatment. Results are shown in the Table below.

Ranges of polyquats in the base can vary from .001%- 10% to the base to enhance the system. The addition of additional film formers can also enhance the additive, an example being the Acrylate Copolymer, Dermacryl AQFtm . Acrylates especially carboxylated added at a .001%- 20% level, being hydrophobic offer substantial water resistance allowing the final product to be water resistant to a greater degree. These components can all be added in the soap base formulation to create a synergistic effect with the additive.
EXAMPLE 6 [00158] 50 subjects were tested with the sunscreen/bodywash of Example 1 of the invention for skin irritation. Subjects bathed or washed as usual, then 0.2ml or 0.2g of test material was dispensed on a designated area of the subject's back and allowed to air dry. The procedure was completed nine consecutive times (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for three consecutive weeks). Areas of application were monitored for erythema and edema. Subjects were then given a 10-14 day rest followed by reapplication at another test site, equivalent to any one of the original nine exposures. [00159] No adverse reactions of any kind were noted during the course of this study.
EXAMPLE 7
[00160] A water resistance test was performed using the sunscreen/bodywash of Example 1. Per the FDA Monograph for Water Resistant and Very Water Resistant claims, the product sample was applied to dry skin of subjects, then submersed in a whirlpool bath tor 40 or 80 minutes prior to measurement. The average SPF after the 40 minute immersion was 12.45 and after the 80 minute immersion was 10.35.
