AI Technical Summary
Among existing anti-aging skincare products, GHK tripeptide is highly water-soluble but lacks stability, while retinol is easily oxidized and degraded in emulsion systems and can easily cause skin irritation when used at high concentrations. Therefore, it is difficult for them to coexist stably in the same formula and play an effective role.
A combination of oil phase, water phase, antioxidant phase and final phase was used. By controlling the temperature and adding in stages, GHK tripeptide and palmitoyl GHK tripeptide were loaded into different phases respectively, and retinol was encapsulated in antioxidants. Anhydrous lanolin was used as a solvent to avoid differences in solubility and oxidative decomposition. Moisturizers such as glycerin and propylene glycol were combined to improve permeability.
It achieves stable coexistence of GHK tripeptide, palmitoyl GHK tripeptide and retinol, significantly improving anti-wrinkle, firming and repair effects, extending the product's shelf life, reducing the irritation of retinol, and improving the mildness and user tolerance of the formula.

Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to a cosmetic formulation, more particularly, it relates to an anti-wrinkle skin care composition and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Skin aging is a complex and multi-factorial biological process, with age, the synthesis of collagen and elastin in the skin decreases, cell renewal slows down, and the structure of the dermis deteriorates, resulting in external signs of aging such as fine lines, dry lines, sagging, and dullness.
[0003] The functional ingredients commonly used in anti-aging skin care products at present mainly include: (1) Retinoids, which can effectively improve skin texture and fine lines by stimulating dermal collagen synthesis, promoting cell renewal, and improving sebum secretion; (2) Signal peptides, such as GHK tripeptide (Gly-His-Lys), which can promote fibroblast proliferation and collagen synthesis; (3) Antioxidants, which can inhibit cell damage caused by free radicals.
[0004] GHK tripeptide is a natural small molecule peptide that can effectively activate skin repair signals, improve wound healing, and delay skin aging. However, it has strong water solubility, limited skin penetration ability, and insufficient stability in emulsion systems.
[0005] Palmitoyl-GHK tripeptide is modified by palmitoyl group to enhance its liposolubility and skin penetration, and has good biological stability and sustained release effect. It is widely used in cosmetic formulations to enhance deep action and efficacy persistence.
[0006] Retinol is a derivative of vitamin A and is one of the anti-aging ingredients commonly recommended by dermatologists. It can regulate gene expression, increase cell metabolic rate, and increase dermal collagen production. However, it is easily oxidized and degraded in formulations, and high concentrations may cause skin redness or irritation, so the amount needs to be reasonably controlled and combined with soothing or repair ingredients.

[0011] The final phase component comprises 1.5-4.0% dimethicone, 0.01-0.05% GHK tripeptide, essence and water.
[0012] The present application further provides that the weight percentage of water in the aqueous phase component and the final phase component is set to 100% based on the weight percentage of the remaining raw materials.
[0013] The present application further provides that the lanolin can be replaced by bleached lanolin, and the heavy liquid paraffin can be replaced by virgin olive oil.
[0014] The present application further provides a preparation method of the anti-wrinkle skin care composition, comprising the following steps: S1, configuring each component: mixing based on the weight percentage of each material to form the oil phase component, the aqueous phase component, the antioxidant and active substance phase and the final phase component;
[0015] S2, aqueous phase component treatment: heating the aqueous phase component to 75°C and continuously stirring;
[0016] S3, adding the oil phase component: after the heating of the aqueous phase component is completed, the oil phase component is added to the aqueous phase component, and stirring is continuously performed during the addition of the oil phase component and the temperature is maintained at 70-75°C, and the stirring time is set to 20 min;
[0017] S4, adding antioxidant and active substance phase: after the completion of stirring, the mixture of step S3 is cooled to 60℃, after the completion of cooling, the antioxidant and active substance phase is added;
[0018] S5, adding final phase component: continue to cool the mixture formed in step S4, the cooling temperature is 40℃, after the completion of cooling, the final phase component is added;
[0019] S6, viscosity adjustment: continue to stir the mixture formed in step S5, the stirring time is 25min, after the completion of stirring, water is added to the mixture based on the volume and viscosity parameters of the required final product, and the required final product is formed.

The application combines the oil phase, the water phase, the active phase antioxidant and the final phase, and through a special preparation process, the problem of coexistence, stability and high efficiency of water-soluble GHK tripeptide, fat-soluble palmitoyl GHK tripeptide and unstable retinol in the same formula is effectively solved. Specifically, GHK tripeptide activates the epidermal repair pathway as a short-acting and rapid repair component, palmitoyl GHK tripeptide provides sustained release and deep dermal layer support, and retinol promotes cell renewal, enhances keratin metabolism and stimulates collagen synthesis, thereby synergistically acting on multiple skin layers to resist external aging signs. In addition, in order to ensure the stability and skin tolerance of retinol in the emulsion base, the application introduces an appropriate amount of antioxidant (such as BHT, BHA) in the emulsion system, and avoids thermal degradation of active components through temperature control process, thereby realizing a mild, stable and efficient polypeptide A anti-wrinkle composition. The above composition contains double GHK peptides acting on different skin layers, successfully compounding the powerful anti-wrinkle ingredient retinol, and the above active ingredients can effectively maintain biological activity and synergistically act with the aid of propylene glycol and glycerol, thereby resisting wrinkles from multiple targets such as promoting collagen synthesis, inhibiting matrix metalloproteinase activity and stimulating cell renewal, significantly improving the overall anti-wrinkle, firming and repair synergistic effect of the formula, and achieving comprehensive anti-aging effect that cannot be achieved by single component or simple compounding.

At the same time, the glycerol, propylene glycol and sorbitol in the formula serve as humectants, which significantly improve the permeability of the two GHK peptides together with Tween 60, glycerol monostearate and dimethicone.
[0022] 3、Meanwhile, for retinol, the present application sets retinol in the antioxidant component, which effectively isolates the threat of moisture to the stability of retinol by using anhydrous lanolin as the main solvent and a wrapping matrix, anhydrous environment, significantly delays the oxidative decomposition of retinol, protects its activity during storage and use, and avoids the destruction of retinol at high temperatures by adding the antioxidant and active substance phase containing retinol at 60°C during preparation. The above-mentioned scheme not only greatly improves the chemical stability of retinol, prolongs the effective period and efficacy persistence of the product, but also helps to release retinol by wrapping with lanolin, to a certain extent, reduces the irritation that may be caused by direct contact with the skin, and improves the mildness and user tolerance of the formula.
