Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of skin care raw materials, in particular to a whitening composition and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Skin care products are products for skin care. With the progress of science and technology, skin care products are no longer luxury goods, but have become daily consumer goods for most beauty lovers. Among them, whitening is one of the most popular skin care functions. Existing whitening skin care products mainly achieve whitening effect by inhibiting melanin synthesis. However, the existing raw materials with tyrosinase activity cannot achieve 100% inhibition of tyrosinase, so they can only reduce the synthesis of melanin and cannot completely inhibit the synthesis of melanin. Under the persistent attack of ultraviolet rays and free radicals, cells will continue to stimulate the synthesis of melanin, resulting in insignificant whitening effect, which is difficult to meet the needs of consumers. Therefore, there is still room for improvement. SUMMARY
[0003] In order to further improve the whitening effect, the present application provides a whitening composition and application thereof.
[0004] In a first aspect, the present application provides a whitening composition, which adopts the following technical solution: A whitening composition, comprising the following components in mass fraction: 1.02-2.2 parts of a composite extract; 1.02-2.2 parts of a moisturizing agent; 0.002-0.02 parts of a preservative; 0.158-1.58 parts of a solvent; The composite extract is a compound of Norway spruce leaf extract, Indian rhizoma baulinophyllum extract and rhododendron extract.
[0005] By adopting the above technical solution, the composite extract composed of Norway spruce leaf extract, Indian rhizoma baulinophyllum extract and rhododendron extract can significantly inhibit the activity of tyrosinase under the cooperation of the active ingredients of each extract. At the same time, it can also resist ultraviolet rays, significantly reduce the attack of ultraviolet rays on cells, and effectively remove free radicals to reduce the attack of free radicals on skin. Through multiple synergies, the amount of melanin synthesis is reduced to a lower level, so that the whitening effect of skin is more significant, and the needs of consumers are better met. Moreover, since there is no need to add ingredients to physically block ultraviolet rays, the skin care product prepared from the composition does not need to cover a thick protective layer on the skin surface, so that the skin can breathe more smoothly, which is more conducive to skin health and better product experience.
[0006] Preferably, in the complex extract, the mass ratio of the Picea abies leaf extract, the Klamath weed extract and the Pittosporum tobira extract is 1-2:0.01-0.1:0.01-0.1.
[0007] By adopting the technical scheme, the mass ratio of the Picea abies leaf extract, the Klamath weed extract and the Pittosporum tobira extract is specifically selected, so that the active ingredients are combined in a specific ratio, the synergistic effect is more remarkable, and the significant whitening effect can be better exerted.
[0008] Preferably, the moisturizing agent is a combination of magnolia alcohol and butylene glycol.
[0009] By adopting the technical scheme, the addition of magnolia alcohol and butylene glycol makes the moisturizing effect better, the skin can be better cared for, the skin is healthier, and thus the skin can be more conducive to expelling melanin and assisting in improving the whitening effect.
[0010] Preferably, in the moisturizing agent, the mass ratio of the magnolia alcohol and the butylene glycol is 1-2:0.02-0.2.
[0011] By adopting the technical scheme, the mass ratio of the magnolia alcohol and the butylene glycol is specifically selected, and the moisturizing effect is more remarkable.
[0012] Preferably, the preservative is a combination of 1,2-hexanediol and p-hydroxyacetophenone.
[0013] By adopting the technical scheme, the specific selection of 1,2-hexanediol and p-hydroxyacetophenone makes the preservative effect better and the irritation lower, and the skin is more friendly.
[0014] Preferably, in the preservative, the mass ratio of the 1,2-hexanediol and the p-hydroxyacetophenone is 0.001-0.01:0.001-0.01.
[0015] By adopting the technical scheme, the mass ratio of the 1,2-hexanediol and the p-hydroxyacetophenone is specifically selected, and the preservative effect is better.
[0016] Preferably, the solvent is water.
[0017] By adopting the technical scheme, the specific selection of the solvent as water makes the solubility of each component in the solvent higher, the synergistic effect can be better exerted, and the skin is more easily absorbed.
[0018] In a second aspect, the application provides an application of a whitening composition, which adopts the following technical scheme: The application of the whitening composition described above, the whitening composition is added to a skin care product or a cosmetic formula to prepare a skin care product or a cosmetic with a whitening effect.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solutions, the skin care products or cosmetics produced can achieve a very significant whitening effect. They can effectively protect the skin, reduce the damage of ultraviolet rays and free radicals to cells, reduce the factors that increase melanin synthesis, and inhibit melanin synthesis, resulting in a smaller overall amount of melanin synthesis and thus a very significant whitening effect.
[0020] In summary, this application has the following beneficial effects: 1. Because this application uses a compound extract made from Norway spruce leaf extract, Indian swert sprout extract, and heather extract, the active ingredients of each extract work synergistically to significantly inhibit tyrosinase activity. It also effectively resists ultraviolet radiation, significantly reducing UV damage to cells, and effectively scavenges free radicals, reducing their damage to the skin. Through multi-component synergy, melanin synthesis is reduced to an even lower level, resulting in a more significant skin whitening effect, better meeting consumer needs. Furthermore, since no physical UV-blocking ingredients are required, the skincare products made from this composition do not need a thick protective layer on the skin surface, allowing for better skin respiration and promoting skin health, resulting in a superior user experience.
[0021] 2. In this application, the preferred method is to select the specific mass ratio of Norway spruce leaf extract, Indian spruce sprout extract, and broom photinia extract so that the active ingredients are combined in a specific ratio to exert a more significant synergistic effect and better achieve a significant whitening effect.
[0022] 3. In this application, the addition of magnolol and butylene glycol is preferred to improve the moisturizing effect, better care for the skin, make the skin healthier, and thus facilitate the skin to excrete melanin more quickly, thereby helping to improve the whitening effect.

[0091] Experiment 1 The SPF value of the sample to be tested prepared from the whitening composition of each example and comparative example is determined according to the detection method of the sun protection index (SPF value) of sunscreen cosmetic in Chapter 8, Section 2 of the 2015 edition of the Cosmetics Safety Technical Specification.
[0092] The PFA value of the test sample prepared from each of the whitening compositions of the examples and the comparative examples was determined according to the detection method of the ultraviolet A wave (i.e., UVA) protection index (PFA value) in Chapter 8, Section 4 of the Cosmetic Safety Technical Specifications 2015 edition.
[0093] Each group of experiments was performed ten times, and the average value was taken.
[0094] Test sample: 1 g of the whitening composition was taken, 99 g of deionized water was added, and the mixture was uniformly mixed to obtain a test sample.
[0095] Experiment 2 The tyrosinase inhibition rate (%) of the test sample prepared from each of the whitening compositions of the examples and the comparative examples was detected according to T / GDCA 006-2021 Cosmetic Raw Material Inhibition Test Method for Tyrosinase Activity (In Vitro Method).
[0096] Each group of experiments was performed ten times, and the average value was taken.
[0097] Test sample: 1 g of the whitening composition was taken, 99 g of deionized water was added, and the mixture was uniformly mixed to obtain a test sample.
[0098] Experiment 3 The DPPH free radical scavenging rate (%) of the test sample prepared from each of the whitening compositions of the examples and the comparative examples was detected according to T / SHRH 006-2018 Cosmetics - Free Radical (DPPH) Scavenging Test Method.
[0099] Each group of experiments was performed ten times, and the average value was taken.
[0100] Test sample: 1 g of the whitening composition was taken, 99 g of deionized water was added, and the mixture was uniformly mixed to obtain a test sample.
[0101] The specific experimental data of experiments 1-3 are shown in Table 1.
[0102] Table 1 According to the comparison of the data of each of the examples and the comparative examples in Table 1, the SPF value, the PFA value, the tyrosinase inhibition rate (%), and the DPPH free radical scavenging rate (%) of each of the examples are significantly higher than those of the comparative examples. It can be seen that after the Norwegian spruce leaf extract, the Indian kyllinga extract, and the Photinia serratifolia extract in the examples are replaced by other plant extracts with whitening effect, the whitening effect on the skin is general, the effect of inhibiting melanin synthesis is not as good as that of the examples, the effect of preventing ultraviolet rays is significantly reduced, and the effect of clearing free radicals is also not good.
[0103] It is proved that only when the Norway spruce leaf extract, the Indian Swertia herb extract and the Pittosporum tobira extract are compounded, can the special synergistic effect be volatilized, so as to realize the comprehensive whitening effect inside and outside, and make the whitening effect very remarkable.
[0104] The embodiment is only an explanation of the present application, and is not a limitation of the present application, and those skilled in the art can make modifications to the embodiment without creative contribution according to the needs after reading the specification, but as long as the modifications are within the scope of the claims of the present application, they are protected by the patent law.
