[0032] Unless otherwise specified, all raw materials, reagents, instruments and equipment used in this invention can be purchased from the market or prepared by existing methods.

[0033] In the quantitative experiments in the following examples, three replicate experiments were set up, and the data are the average of the three replicate experiments or the average ± standard deviation.

[0034] Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-3 each provide a skin care composition, the specific components and contents of which are shown in Table 1, in units of weight percentage.

[0035] Table 1

[0036] Specifically, the preparation method of the coltsfoot leaf extract in the above embodiments and comparative examples includes the following steps: S1. Wash the coltsfoot leaves, dry them at room temperature, pulverize them, and pass them through a 40-60 mesh sieve to obtain coltsfoot leaf powder; S2. Add a 60% ethanol solution to the coltsfoot leaf powder, with a ratio of 1g coltsfoot leaf powder to 20mL ethanol solution. Mix well to obtain a mixed solution. S3. Place the mixed solution obtained in step S2 into a microwave reactor for microwave reaction. The microwave power is 600W and the time is 10min. After the reaction is completed, cool to room temperature to obtain the reaction solution. S4. The reaction solution is concentrated in a water bath at a temperature of 30°C, a rotation speed of 20 rpm, and a time of 1 hour to obtain a concentrated sample. The concentrated sample is then vacuum dried at a temperature of 30°C, a vacuum degree of -0.08 MPa, and a time of 1 hour to obtain coltsfoot leaf extract.

[0037] The method for preparing the skincare composition of the above embodiments includes the following steps: A1. Raw material preparation: Weigh out the oil and emulsifier as the oil phase, and the moisturizer, thickener and pure water as the water phase according to the formula. Weigh out the remaining raw materials. A2. Heating to dissolve: Heat the oil phase and water phase to 75-85℃ respectively, and stir to completely melt the oil phase components and fully disperse and dissolve the water phase components, keeping the temperature difference between the two phases ≤2℃; A3. Emulsification and homogenization: Under stirring, slowly pour the oil phase into the aqueous phase and homogenize with a homogenizer at 3000 r / min for 5 minutes to form a preliminary emulsion; A4. Cooling and Adding: Cool the emulsion to below 45°C while stirring. Add preservatives, coltsfoot leaf extract, panthenol, and fragrance. Stir at low speed until homogeneous. Cool to 35°C and add sodium hydroxide. Take a sample and dilute it with pure water at a ratio of 1:9. After measuring the pH value to 5-7, stop stirring to obtain the finished product.

[0038] The preparation method for the comparative example is similar; if there are any substances that should not be added, they can be removed in the corresponding preparation steps.

[0039] The above embodiments and comparative examples were evaluated by user sensory assessment and instrument efficacy evaluation. The specific test results are shown in Tables 2 and 3.

[0040] Test method: 1. Selecting volunteers Seventy volunteers aged 20-60 years were randomly divided into seven groups of ten. Groups 1-4 corresponded to Examples 1-4, and groups 5-7 corresponded to Comparative Examples 1-3.

[0041] The efficacy of the product was tested by measuring skin moisture content, skin a* value, transepidermal water loss, and subject self-reports before and after 7, 14, and 28 days of continuous use of the test product in a subject population following skin damage treatment.

[0042] 2. Inspection Principles Moisturizing: The test area showed a significant difference in skin moisture content before and after product use, indicating that the test sample has a moisturizing effect.

[0043] Repair: Before and after product use, compared with the control area, if the transepidermal water loss of the skin at any viewing point is significantly reduced, the a* value is significantly reduced, or the skin moisture content is significantly increased, it indicates that the test sample has a repair effect; otherwise, it does not have a repair effect.

[0044] Soothing effect: Before and after product use, if the a* value of any viewing point in the sample area is significantly reduced compared to the control area, or if the transepidermal water loss of the skin is significantly reduced or the skin moisture content is significantly increased, it indicates that the test sample has a soothing effect; otherwise, it does not have a soothing effect.

[0045] 3. Testing Process (1) No products (cosmetics or topical medications) should be used on the test area for 3 days prior to the test, and the area should not come into contact with water for 3 hours. Before the test, the test area should be cleaned uniformly by wiping it clean with a dry tissue. The skin on the arm was treated with 1% SLS (sodium lauryl sulfate) the day before the test. After 24 hours, the patch was removed, and the test was performed 30 minutes later. Before the test, the subjects should sit quietly for at least 20 minutes in a laboratory with a temperature of 20-22°C and a relative humidity of 40-60%, without drinking water or beverages, with the test area exposed and remaining relaxed. Baseline values ​​(T0d) of skin moisture content, transepidermal water loss, and a* value were collected from the test area.

[0046] (2) Sample application: Use (2.0±0.1) mg / cm³ in the sample area. 2 The test samples were used in the control area, while no product was used in the control area.

[0047] (3) After using the product, the transdermal water loss, skin moisture content and a* value of the test area were collected 7 days, 14 days and 28 days after using the product (T7d / T14d / T28d).

[0048] For the difference analysis, P value < 0.050 indicates a significant difference between before and after sample use; P ≥ 0.050 indicates no significant difference between before and after sample use.

[0049] Table 2

[0050] The test results from Examples 1-4 show that, with the proportional increase in the amount of *Lysimachia christinae* extract added in Examples 1-4, the highest average skin moisture content (18.55%), the highest significant reduction in transepidermal water loss (18.3%), and the highest significant reduction in a* value (23.97%) were observed in the test subjects after 7 days of continuous use of the test sample compared to before the experiment. After 14 days of continuous use of the test sample compared to before the experiment, the highest average skin moisture content (25.32%), the highest significant reduction in transepidermal water loss (28.28%), and the highest significant reduction in a* value (28.35%) were observed. After 28 days of continuous use of the test sample compared to before the experiment, the highest average skin moisture content (28.22%), the highest significant reduction in transepidermal water loss (36.32%), and the highest significant reduction in a* value (38.63%) were observed, indicating that the test sample has moisturizing, repairing, and soothing effects. When the amount of coltsfoot extract added is 5%, the effect of addition and efficacy is better.

[0051] Comparing the test results of Example 3 and Comparative Examples 1-3, it can be seen that Comparative Example 1 did not add coltsfoot leaf extract and panthenol, Comparative Example 2 only added coltsfoot leaf extract, and Comparative Example 3 only added panthenol. The experimental data shows that adding either coltsfoot leaf extract or panthenol alone resulted in lower moisturizing and soothing effects compared to adding both coltsfoot leaf extract and panthenol simultaneously. This indicates that coltsfoot leaf extract and panthenol have a synergistic effect, jointly enhancing the moisturizing, soothing, and repairing effects of the composition of the present invention. Further comparison of the 28-day data in Example 3 and Comparative Example 2 shows that when coltsfoot leaf extract and panthenol are used synergistically, they have long-lasting moisturizing, soothing, and repairing effects.

[0052] After using the sample from Example 3 for 28 days, the subjects performed self-evaluation on the sample from Example 3, and the specific results are shown in Table 3.

[0053] Table 3

[0054] The test data in Table 3 shows that 100.00% of the subjects were satisfied with the product's moisturizing effect; 100.00% of the subjects were satisfied with the product's long-lasting moisturizing effect; 96.66% of the subjects were satisfied with the product's soothing effect; 96.66% of the subjects were satisfied with the product's long-lasting soothing effect; 96.66% of the subjects were satisfied with the product's repairing effect; and 96.66% of the subjects were satisfied with the product's long-lasting repairing effect.

[0055] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above. However, the present invention is not limited to the specific details in the above embodiments. Within the scope of the technical concept of the present invention, various simple modifications can be made to the technical solution of the present invention, and these simple modifications all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0056] It should also be noted that the various specific technical features described in the above embodiments can be combined in any suitable manner without contradiction. To avoid unnecessary repetition, the present invention will not describe the various possible combinations separately.

[0057] Furthermore, various different embodiments of the present invention can be combined in any way, as long as they do not violate the spirit of the present invention, they should also be regarded as the content disclosed by the present invention.
