Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of shampoo bar technology, and in particular to a traditional Chinese medicine shampoo bar and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the most common hair care products on the market are shampoos and shampoo bars. Traditional shampoos often contain various chemical ingredients, such as foaming agents, thickeners, fluorescent agents, silicones, and dioxane. While some of these chemicals can work quickly—for example, certain silicone oils can make hair instantly smooth after washing—long-term use can disrupt the natural balance between the scalp and hair. Silicone oil forms a difficult-to-wash film on the hair surface, clogging hair follicles, leading to increasingly oily, brittle, and easily broken hair. It also affects the scalp's self-regulating function, resulting in increasingly poor hair quality. Furthermore, long-term exposure to these chemicals may pose potential threats to health.

[0003] Regarding traditional Chinese medicine shampoos, the famous Tang Dynasty physician Sun Simiao's *Qianjin Fang* records a method of boiling 300 hemp seeds, soapberry, and arborvitae leaves in water. This decoction method utilizes traditional Chinese medicine to improve hair quality and cleanse the scalp, removing dirt, nourishing the scalp, reducing dandruff, and addressing hair loss. However, existing traditional Chinese medicine shampoos targeting seborrheic alopecia, dry and frizzy hair, excessive dandruff, itchy scalp, and oily scalp still have unsatisfactory actual effects and cannot meet consumers' diverse hair care needs. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to solve or at least partially solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this application provides a traditional Chinese medicine shampoo soap and its preparation method, which cleanses the scalp with gentle traditional Chinese medicine rather than relying on irritating substances, thus solving problems such as oily scalp, itchy scalp, acne on the scalp, increased dandruff, hair loss, and gray hair.

[0005] The first aspect of this application provides a traditional Chinese medicine shampoo bar, comprising active traditional Chinese medicine components and basic raw materials for forming the soap body; the active traditional Chinese medicine components are formed by soaking, decocting, and filtering traditional Chinese medicine raw materials in the following weight ratios: 40-180g of arborvitae leaves, 20-150g of dried ginger, 20-150g of chrysanthemum, 20-180g of soapberry, 100-190g of soapberry, 10-90g of duckweed, 10-90g of eclipta prostrata, 10-80g of privet fruit, 10-100g of prepared fleeceflower root, 10-100g of sophora flavescens, 20-90g of bitter tea, 60-130g of peppermint, 20-90g of mugwort leaves, 20-90g of ginseng, 20-90g of ganoderma lucidum, 20-90g of angelica sinensis, 30-100g of mulberry leaves, and 30-100g of perilla leaves; The decoction solvent for the Chinese herbal raw materials is 8-15L of rice water.

[0006] Optionally, the base materials used to form the soap include an oil base, alkali, traditional Chinese medicine powder, and plant essential oils; The oil base is composed of coconut oil, palm oil, and perilla oil in a mass ratio of 50:30:20; The alkali is sodium hydroxide; The herbal powder is composed of tea seed powder and arborvitae leaf powder, and the amount added is 3% to 8% of the total mass of the oil base; optionally, the mass ratio of tea seed powder to arborvitae leaf powder is 3:2.

[0007] Optionally, the base ingredients for forming the soap body include: 2000-3000g soap base, 40-60g tea seed cake powder, 20-40g arborvitae leaf powder, and 50-100g camellia oil.

[0008] The second aspect of this application provides a method for preparing a traditional Chinese medicine shampoo soap, comprising the following steps: Step 1: Mix rice and water at a mass-to-volume ratio of 1:8 and soak at 25-30℃ for 2-5 hours, stirring and rubbing the rice by hand every 0.5 hours during soaking. After soaking, add 30% orange peel and 30% lemon peel by mass of rice, mix well, and transfer to a sealed container. Ferment at a constant temperature of 28-32℃ in the dark for 36-60 hours until the pH of the fermentation liquid stabilizes at 3.5-4.5. Filter to remove fruit peel residue to obtain rice water. Step 2: Weigh all the Chinese medicinal materials according to the formula. Soak the prepared Polygonum multiflorum, Sophora flavescens, ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, and Angelica sinensis in warm water at 40-50℃ for 2-4 hours.

Add room temperature water until the liquid level covers all the herbs by 8-12 cm. Continue soaking at room temperature for 2-3 hours. After soaking, drain and collect all the herbs to obtain the pre-treated raw materials. Step 3: Mix the pretreated raw material with half of the rice water, bring to a boil over high heat, then simmer over low heat for 1-3 hours. Cool to below 40°C and filter to separate the first dregs and the first decoction. Mix the first dregs with the other half of the rice water, bring to a boil over high heat, then simmer over low heat for 1-3 hours. Cool to below 40°C and filter to separate the second decoction. Combine the first and second decoctions and cool to room temperature to obtain the active components of the traditional Chinese medicine. Step 4: Slowly and in batches, add sodium hydroxide to room temperature pure water while stirring until completely dissolved to obtain an alkaline aqueous solution; place the alkaline aqueous solution in an ice-water bath to cool it down to 40-45℃; then slowly and in batches, add the active components of the traditional Chinese medicine to the cooled alkaline aqueous solution while stirring until homogeneous to obtain an alkaline traditional Chinese medicine solution; mix coconut oil, palm oil, and perilla oil and heat them, stirring until homogeneous, then cool to 32-43℃ to obtain an oil base; Step 5: Slowly and gradually pour the alkaline Chinese herbal medicine solution into the oil base while stirring continuously. When the mixture becomes viscous and reaches the trace state, add 40-80 mesh Chinese herbal medicine powder and plant essential oil, and continue stirring until evenly mixed to obtain soap solution. Step Six: Pour the soap liquid into the mold, keep it warm at 25~35℃ for 48-72 hours, then unmold it. Place the unmolded soap in a cool and ventilated place to air dry for 30~45 days until the pH value of the soap stabilizes at 7~9, and the herbal shampoo soap is obtained.

[0009] Optionally, the temperature difference between the alkaline herbal solution and the oil-based substrate does not exceed 8°C.

[0010] Optionally, in step two, the prepared Polygonum multiflorum, Sophora flavescens, ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, and Angelica sinensis are soaked in warm water at 40-50°C for 2-4 hours in 8-10 times their total weight.

[0011] The third aspect of this application provides a method for preparing a traditional Chinese medicine shampoo soap, comprising the following steps: Step 1: Mix rice and water at a mass-to-volume ratio of 1:8 and soak at 25-30℃ for 2-5 hours, stirring and rubbing the rice by hand every 0.5 hours during soaking. After soaking, add 30% orange peel and 30% lemon peel by mass of rice, mix well, and transfer to a sealed container. Ferment at a constant temperature of 28-32℃ in the dark for 36-60 hours until the pH of the fermentation liquid stabilizes at 3.5-4.5. Filter to remove fruit peel residue to obtain rice water. Step 2: Weigh all the Chinese medicinal materials according to the formula. Soak the prepared Polygonum multiflorum, Sophora flavescens, ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, and Angelica sinensis in warm water at 40-50℃ for 2-4 hours. Add Platycladus orientalis leaves, dried ginger, chrysanthemum, Sapindus mukorossi, Gleditsia sinensis, duckweed, Eclipta prostrata, Ligustrum lucidum, Kuding tea, mint, Artemisia argyi, mulberry leaves, and Perilla frutescens. Add room temperature water until the liquid level covers all the herbs by 8-12 cm. Continue soaking at room temperature for 2-3 hours. After soaking, drain and collect all the herbs to obtain the pre-treated raw materials. Step 3: Mix the pretreated raw material with half of the rice water, bring to a boil over high heat, then simmer over low heat for 1-3 hours. Cool to below 40°C and filter to separate the first dregs and the first decoction. Mix the first dregs with the other half of the rice water, bring to a boil over high heat, then simmer over low heat for 1-3 hours. Cool to below 40°C and filter to separate the second decoction. Combine the first decoction and the second decoction to obtain the active components of the traditional Chinese medicine. Step 4: Heat and boil the active components of the Chinese herbal medicine, and slowly add the soap base in batches while stirring for 0.5 to 1.5 hours; then slowly add camellia oil while stirring for 0.5 to 1.5 hours; finally add 40 to 80 mesh tea seed powder and arborvitae leaf powder, and continue stirring until a uniform soap paste is formed; the soap base is preferably an amino acid soap base. Step 5: Pour the soap paste into the mold while it is still hot at 50~60℃, let it cool and set, then unmold, cut into pieces, and age to obtain the Chinese herbal shampoo soap.

[0012] Optionally, in step five, the mold is placed in an environment with a temperature of 25-30℃ and a humidity of 40-50% and left to solidify for 12-18 hours, then demolded and cut into blocks to obtain the initial soap blank. Place the initial soap blank in an environment with a temperature of 20-25℃, humidity of 50-60%, and ventilation and light protection for 7-15 days to age.

[0013] This application has the following advantages compared with the prior art: (1) The synergistic combination of the components of the herbal shampoo soap provided in this application constitutes a multi-effect compound system that cleanses, nourishes, controls oil, promotes hair growth, and darkens hair. The natural saponins provided by soapberry and soapberry are used as the main cleansing components; Sophora flavescens, bitter tea, chrysanthemum and Platycladus orientalis leaves work together to clear heat and dry dampness, kill insects and relieve itching, effectively inhibiting the excessive reproduction of resident microorganisms on the scalp, reducing dandruff and inflammatory reactions caused by the decomposition of sebum by microorganisms from the source; the addition of peppermint, mugwort and perilla leaves, with their pungent and cool properties and anti-inflammatory properties, work together to regulate the secretion of sebaceous glands, soothe scalp itching and redness, and maintain the balance of flora and oil in the scalp microenvironment. With arborvitae leaves, processed Polygonum multiflorum, Eclipta prostrata, and Ligustrum lucidum as its core hair growth ingredients, this product promotes hair growth and strengthens hair while providing nutrients to hair follicles. Arborvitae leaves improve local microcirculation in the scalp, providing sufficient blood and oxygen to the hair follicles. Processed Polygonum multiflorum nourishes the liver and kidneys and replenishes essence and blood. Eclipta prostrata and Ligustrum lucidum work synergistically to nourish the liver and kidneys, cool the blood, and nourish the blood, improving the health of hair follicles from within, slowing down hair loss, and promoting the transformation of gray hair to black. The combination of ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, and Angelica sinensis aims to replenish qi and invigorate blood, providing nutritional support to hair follicles and strengthening hair root resilience. The addition of mulberry leaves and duckweed, with their moisturizing properties, helps to moisturize hair and relieve dryness.

[0014] (2) The addition of perilla in the formula of this application plays a key role in synergistic enhancement and bidirectional regulation. Perilla works together with other components in the formula to achieve comprehensive conditioning of the scalp microenvironment. In particular, perilla works synergistically with peppermint and mugwort, utilizing the pungent and dispersing properties of perilla, combined with the cooling properties of peppermint and the warming and meridian-clearing properties of mugwort, to effectively open the scalp pores, promote the penetration of the medicine, and refresh the scalp. At the same time, the warming properties of perilla combine with dried ginger to neutralize the cold properties of components such as sophora flavescens and bitter tea, preventing cold coagulation and blood stasis, thereby maintaining the balance of the medicinal properties at the formula level and avoiding scalp dryness or irritation caused by excessive cleansing. Perilla has a bidirectional regulatory function on scalp sebum secretion. On the one hand, the volatile oil components in perilla can inhibit the excessive proliferation of scalp-resident microorganisms such as Malassezia, thereby reducing dandruff and odor caused by microbial decomposition of oil and achieving oil control from the source. On the other hand, the flavonoids and rosmarinic acid components in perilla have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities, which can soothe scalp itching and redness caused by clogged hair follicles, and have a certain moisturizing property, preventing damage to the scalp barrier function due to excessive degreasing. As a key regulatory unit in the formula system, perilla works synergistically with other components to create a scalp care environment that "controls oil without sacrificing moisture, and cleanses while soothing," thereby enhancing the overall efficacy of this herbal shampoo bar in improving oily scalp, relieving scalp sensitivity, and nourishing hair roots.

[0015] (3) The preparation process of this application involves specific steps such as segmented soaking, double boiling, and step-by-step feeding. By adjusting the process parameters of each step, the extraction efficiency of active ingredients can be optimized, ensuring their stability in the saponification system. Through soaking at specific temperatures and times and constant-temperature, light-protected fermentation, rice water is converted into an acidic fermentation liquid with a pH of 3.5-4.5. This fermentation liquid not only serves as a solvent medium for subsequent extraction, but its own organic acids, small molecule peptides, and B vitamins help to adjust the pH of the scalp surface to a healthy, slightly acidic range during application, and provide micronutrients to the scalp, thus helping to improve the scalp's microecological environment.

[0016] (4) One of the preparation processes in this application involves heating and boiling to physically mix the active components of traditional Chinese medicine with powder and oil. Camellia oil is used as a moisturizer, tea seed powder is used as a natural surfactant, and arborvitae leaf powder is used as an adsorbent. This allows the soap to have excellent physical adsorption and friction cleaning ability after solidification. The scalp is not tight after washing, the integrity of the stratum corneum is maintained, the soap aging time is shortened, and the production cycle is shortened.

[0017] (5) Another preparation process in this application uses an alkaline traditional Chinese medicine solution to mix with an oil base at low temperature, avoiding the damage of high temperature to unsaturated fatty acids (such as perilla oil and palm oil) and traditional Chinese medicine components in the oil. Through aging, the free alkali reacts fully with the oil, and the final pH value stabilizes at 7-9 (weakly alkaline), resulting in a gentle washing experience without damaging the scalp stratum corneum. At the same time, the natural glycerin generated by the saponification reaction is retained in the soap body, playing a moisturizing role. Detailed Implementation

[0018] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this application, the solution of this application will be further described below. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0019] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of this application, but this application may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein; obviously, the embodiments in the specification are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments.

[0020] The first aspect of this application provides a traditional Chinese medicine shampoo bar, comprising active traditional Chinese medicine components and basic raw materials for forming the soap body; the active traditional Chinese medicine components are formed by soaking, decocting, and filtering traditional Chinese medicine raw materials in the following weight ratios: 40-180g of arborvitae leaves, 20-150g of dried ginger, 20-150g of chrysanthemum, 20-180g of soapberry, 100-190g of soapberry, 10-90g of duckweed, 10-90g of eclipta prostrata, 10-80g of privet fruit, 10-100g of prepared fleeceflower root, 10-100g of sophora flavescens, 20-90g of bitter tea, 60-130g of peppermint, 20-90g of mugwort leaves, 20-90g of ginseng, 20-90g of ganoderma lucidum, 20-90g of angelica sinensis, 30-100g of mulberry leaves, and 30-100g of perilla leaves; The decoction solvent for the Chinese herbal raw materials is 8-15L of rice water.

[0021] Optionally, the base materials used to form the soap include an oil base, alkali, traditional Chinese medicine powder, and plant essential oils; The oil base is composed of coconut oil, palm oil, and perilla oil in a mass ratio of 50:30:20; The alkali is sodium hydroxide; the amount of sodium hydroxide used is determined based on the theoretical value of the saponification value of the oil base. The herbal powder is composed of tea seed powder and arborvitae leaf powder, and the amount added is 3% to 8% of the total mass of the oil base; optionally, the mass ratio of tea seed powder to arborvitae leaf powder is 3:2. The plant essential oil is composed of tea tree oil and perilla oil, and the amount added is 1% to 3% of the total mass of the oil base. Optionally, the mass ratio of tea tree oil to perilla oil is 1:1.

[0022] Optionally, the base ingredients for forming the soap body include: 2000-3000g soap base, 40-60g tea seed cake powder, 20-40g arborvitae leaf powder, and 50-100g camellia oil.

[0023] The second aspect of this application provides a method for preparing a traditional Chinese medicine shampoo soap, comprising the following steps: Step 1: Mix rice and water at a mass-to-volume ratio of 1:8 and soak at 25-30℃ for 2-5 hours, stirring and rubbing the rice by hand every 0.5 hours during soaking. After soaking, add 30% orange peel and 30% lemon peel by mass of rice, mix well, and transfer to a sealed container. Ferment at a constant temperature of 28-32℃ in the dark for 36-60 hours until the pH of the fermentation liquid stabilizes at 3.5-4.5. Filter to remove fruit peel residue to obtain rice water. Step 2: Weigh all the Chinese medicinal materials according to the formula. Soak the prepared Polygonum multiflorum, Sophora flavescens, ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, and Angelica sinensis in warm water at 40-50℃ for 2-4 hours. Add Platycladus orientalis leaves, dried ginger, chrysanthemum, Sapindus mukorossi, Gleditsia sinensis, duckweed, Eclipta prostrata, Ligustrum lucidum, Kuding tea, mint, Artemisia argyi, mulberry leaves, and Perilla frutescens. Add room temperature water until the liquid level covers all the herbs by 8-12 cm. Continue soaking at room temperature for 2-3 hours. After soaking, drain and collect all the herbs to obtain the pre-treated raw materials. Step 3: Mix the pretreated raw material with half of the rice water, bring to a boil over high heat, then simmer over low heat for 1-3 hours. Cool to below 40°C and filter to separate the first dregs and the first decoction. Mix the first dregs with the other half of the rice water, bring to a boil over high heat, then simmer over low heat for 1-3 hours. Cool to below 40°C and filter to separate the second decoction. Combine the first and second decoctions and cool to room temperature to obtain the active components of the traditional Chinese medicine. Step 4: Slowly and in batches, add sodium hydroxide to room temperature pure water while stirring until completely dissolved to obtain an alkaline aqueous solution; place the alkaline aqueous solution in an ice-water bath to cool it down to 40-45℃; then slowly and in batches, add the active components of the traditional Chinese medicine to the cooled alkaline aqueous solution while stirring until homogeneous to obtain an alkaline traditional Chinese medicine solution; mix coconut oil, palm oil, and perilla oil and heat them, stirring until homogeneous, then cool to 32-43℃ to obtain an oil base; Step 5: Slowly and gradually pour the alkaline herbal solution into the oil base, stirring continuously. When the mixture becomes viscous and reaches the trace stage, add the 40-80 mesh herbal powder and plant essential oil, and continue stirring until homogeneous to obtain the soap solution. Regarding the trace stage, visually, the soap solution changes from a clear or semi-transparent thin liquid to a milky white, opaque, thick emulsion, similar to the texture of yogurt or whipped cream. Tactilely, the stirring resistance increases significantly; when the stirring stick is lifted, the dripping soap solution leaves a clear trace on the surface, and the trace does not disappear immediately but slowly sinks. In terms of fluidity, it changes from a "watery" to a "paste-like" consistency, flowing continuously in a ribbon-like stream rather than as splashing droplets. Step Six: Pour the soap liquid into the mold, keep it warm at 25~35℃ for 48-72 hours, then unmold it. Place the unmolded soap in a cool and ventilated place to air dry for 30~45 days until the pH value of the soap stabilizes at 7~9, and the herbal shampoo soap is obtained.

[0024] Optionally, the temperature difference between the alkaline herbal solution and the oil-based substrate does not exceed 8°C.

[0025] Optionally, in step two, the prepared Polygonum multiflorum, Sophora flavescens, ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, and Angelica sinensis are soaked in warm water at 40-50°C for 2-4 hours in 8-10 times their total weight.

[0026] The third aspect of this application provides a method for preparing a traditional Chinese medicine shampoo soap, comprising the following steps: Step 1: Mix rice and water at a mass-to-volume ratio of 1:8 and soak at 25-30℃ for 2-5 hours, stirring and rubbing the rice by hand every 0.5 hours during soaking. After soaking, add 30% orange peel and 30% lemon peel by mass of rice, mix well, and transfer to a sealed container. Ferment at a constant temperature of 28-32℃ in the dark for 36-60 hours until the pH of the fermentation liquid stabilizes at 3.5-4.5. Filter to remove fruit peel residue to obtain rice water. Step 2: Weigh all the Chinese medicinal materials according to the formula. Soak the prepared Polygonum multiflorum, Sophora flavescens, ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, and Angelica sinensis in warm water at 40-50℃ for 2-4 hours. Add Platycladus orientalis leaves, dried ginger, chrysanthemum, Sapindus mukorossi, Gleditsia sinensis, duckweed, Eclipta prostrata, Ligustrum lucidum, Kuding tea, mint, Artemisia argyi, mulberry leaves, and Perilla frutescens. Add room temperature water until the liquid level covers all the herbs by 8-12 cm. Continue soaking at room temperature for 2-3 hours. After soaking, drain and collect all the herbs to obtain the pre-treated raw materials. Step 3: Mix the pretreated raw material with half of the rice water, bring to a boil over high heat, then simmer over low heat for 1-3 hours. Cool to below 40°C and filter to separate the first dregs and the first decoction. Mix the first dregs with the other half of the rice water, bring to a boil over high heat, then simmer over low heat for 1-3 hours. Cool to below 40°C and filter to separate the second decoction. Combine the first decoction and the second decoction to obtain the active components of the traditional Chinese medicine. Step 4: Heat and boil the active components of the Chinese herbal medicine, and slowly add the soap base in batches under stirring conditions, stirring continuously for 0.5 to 1.5 hours; then slowly add camellia oil, stirring continuously for 0.5 to 1.5 hours; finally add 40 to 80 mesh tea seed powder and arborvitae leaf powder, stirring continuously until a uniform soap paste is formed; the soap base is preferably an amino acid soap base.

[0027] Since the rice water obtained in step one is an acidic fermentation liquid (pH 3.5-4.5), and the active components of the traditional Chinese medicine in step three also contain a large amount of organic acids, alkaloids in the traditional Chinese medicine (such as matrine and certain structures of ginsenosides) are difficult to dissolve in an acidic environment. Adding alkali to adjust the pH of the system to weakly alkaline or neutral facilitates the ionization of alkaloid components, significantly improving their solubility in the aqueous phase and thus enhancing their efficacy. Simultaneously, under heating and boiling conditions, the alkali solution can hydrolyze pectin, hemicellulose, and lignin in plant cell walls, disrupting cell structure and making it easier for lipid-soluble active ingredients encapsulated within the cells (such as volatile oils in arborvitae leaves and squalene in camellia oil) to be released and dispersed into the system. The addition of alkali increases the viscosity of the concentrated traditional Chinese medicine liquid (containing proteins and polysaccharides), which helps to form a uniform, stable, and non-stratifying paste when tea seed powder and arborvitae leaf powder are subsequently added. An alkaline environment inhibits the fermentation bacteria introduced in step one, as well as the microbial activity carried by the medicinal materials, preventing the paste from spoiling before being melted into the mold. Since rice water is acidic, directly mixing it with camellia oil would easily lead to hydrolysis and rancidity of the oil. Adding alkali neutralizes the acidity, providing a chemically stable environment for the subsequent addition of camellia oil.

[0028] Step 5: Pour the soap paste into the mold while it is still hot at 50~60℃, let it cool and set, then unmold, cut into pieces, and age to obtain the Chinese herbal shampoo soap.

[0029] Optionally, in step five, the mold is placed in an environment with a temperature of 25-30℃ and a humidity of 40-50% and left to solidify for 12-18 hours, then demolded and cut into blocks to obtain the initial soap blank. Place the initial soap blank in an environment with a temperature of 20-25℃, humidity of 50-60%, and ventilation and light protection for 7-15 days to age.

[0030] The present invention will be further described below through specific embodiments, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0031] Example 1: This embodiment provides a traditional Chinese medicine shampoo soap A, comprising active traditional Chinese medicine components. The active traditional Chinese medicine components are formed by soaking, decocting, and filtering the following traditional Chinese medicine raw materials in the indicated weight ratios: 100g of arborvitae leaves, 60g of dried ginger, 60g of chrysanthemum, 100g of soapberry, 150g of soapberry, 50g of duckweed, 50g of eclipta prostrata, 50g of privet fruit, 60g of processed fleeceflower root, 60g of sophora flavescens, 60g of bitter tea, 100g of peppermint, 60g of mugwort leaves, 60g of ginseng, 60g of ganoderma lucidum, 60g of angelica sinensis, 60g of mulberry leaves, and 60g of perilla. The decoction solvent for the traditional Chinese medicine raw materials is 12L of rice water.

[0032] The base ingredients used to form the soap include coconut oil, palm oil, perilla oil, sodium hydroxide, tea tree oil, perilla oil, tea seed powder, and arborvitae leaf powder. The mass ratio of coconut oil, palm oil, and perilla oil is 50:30:20. The amount of tea seed powder and arborvitae leaf powder added is 5% of the total mass of coconut oil, palm oil, and perilla oil, and the mass ratio of tea seed powder to arborvitae leaf powder is 3:2. The amount of tea tree oil and perilla oil added is 2% of the total mass of coconut oil, palm oil, and perilla oil, and the mass ratio of tea tree oil to perilla oil is 1:1.

[0033] Preparation method: (1) Mix rice and water at a mass-to-volume ratio of 1:8 (for example, mix 1875g of rice with 15L of water), soak at 30℃ for 4 hours, and stir and rub the rice by hand every 0.5 hours for 2 minutes each time. After soaking, add 562.5g of orange peel and 562.5g of lemon peel, mix well, transfer to a sealed container, and ferment at 30℃ in the dark for 48 hours until the pH of the fermentation liquid is 4 and there are uniform and fine bubbles on the surface of the liquid. Filter to remove the fruit peel residue to obtain rice water.

[0034] (2) Weigh all the Chinese medicinal materials according to the proportion. Soak the prepared Polygonum multiflorum, Sophora flavescens, ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum and Angelica sinensis in 45℃ warm water at 9 times their total weight for 3 hours (i.e., 2700g, about 2.7L). Add Platycladus orientalis leaves, dried ginger, chrysanthemum, Sapindus mukorossi, Gleditsia sinensis, duckweed, Eclipta prostrata, Ligustrum lucidum, Kuding tea, mint, Artemisia argyi, mulberry leaves and Perilla frutescens. Add room temperature water until the liquid level is 10cm above the surface of the herbs. Soak at room temperature for 3 hours. After soaking, drain and collect all the herbs to obtain the pre-treated raw materials.

[0035] (3) Mix the pretreated raw material with 6L of rice water, boil and simmer for 2 hours, cool to below 40°C and filter to obtain the first medicinal juice and the first medicinal residue; boil the first medicinal residue with the remaining 6L of rice water for 2 hours in the same way, cool and filter to obtain the second medicinal juice; combine the first medicinal juice and the second medicinal juice and cool to room temperature to obtain the active components of traditional Chinese medicine.

[0036] (4) Slowly and gradually add 15g of sodium hydroxide to room temperature pure water, stirring while adding until completely dissolved to obtain an alkaline solution; cool the alkaline solution in an ice water bath, controlling the temperature to drop to 40℃, and then slowly and gradually add 37g of the active components of traditional Chinese medicine to the cooled alkaline solution, stirring while adding. At this time, the temperature is easy to maintain below 45℃ to protect the heat-sensitive components of traditional Chinese medicine. After stirring evenly, an alkaline traditional Chinese medicine solution is obtained; mix 50g of coconut oil, 30g of palm oil, and 20g of perilla oil and heat, stirring evenly, and cool down to 35℃ to obtain an oil base; (5) Slowly and in portions, pour the alkaline Chinese medicine solution into the oil base and stir continuously. When the mixture becomes viscous and reaches the Trace state, add 3g of 60-mesh tea seed powder, 2g of 60-mesh arborvitae leaf powder, 1g of tea tree essential oil and 1g of perilla essential oil, and continue to stir evenly to obtain soap solution. (6) Pour the soap liquid into the mold, keep it warm at 30°C for 60 hours, then unmold it. Place the unmolded soap in a cool and ventilated place to dry for 35 days until the pH value of the soap stabilizes at 7.5, and the herbal shampoo soap A is obtained.

[0037] Example 2: This embodiment provides a traditional Chinese medicine shampoo bar B, comprising active traditional Chinese medicine components. The active traditional Chinese medicine components are formed by soaking, decocting, and filtering the following traditional Chinese medicine raw materials in the indicated weight ratios: 100g of arborvitae leaves, 60g of dried ginger, 60g of chrysanthemum, 100g of soapberry, 150g of soapberry, 50g of duckweed, 50g of eclipta prostrata, 50g of privet fruit, 60g of processed fleeceflower root, 60g of sophora flavescens, 60g of bitter tea, 100g of peppermint, 60g of mugwort leaves, 60g of ginseng, 60g of ganoderma lucidum, 60g of angelica sinensis, 60g of mulberry leaves, and 60g of perilla leaves; wherein, the decoction solvent for the traditional Chinese medicine raw materials is 12L of rice water.

[0038] The base ingredients for forming the soap are: 50g tea seed powder, 30g arborvitae leaf powder, 2500g amino acid soap base, and 80g camellia oil.

[0039] Preparation method: (1) Mix rice and water at a mass-to-volume ratio of 1:8 (for example, mix 1875g of rice with 15L of water), soak at 30℃ for 4 hours, and stir and rub the rice by hand every 0.5 hours for 2 minutes each time. After soaking, add 562.5g of orange peel and 562.5g of lemon peel, mix well, transfer to a sealed container, and ferment at 30℃ in the dark for 48 hours until the pH of the fermentation liquid is 4 and there are uniform and fine bubbles on the surface of the liquid. Filter to remove the fruit peel residue to obtain rice water.

[0040] (2) Weigh all the Chinese medicinal materials according to the proportion. Soak the prepared Polygonum multiflorum, Sophora flavescens, ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum and Angelica sinensis in 45℃ warm water at 9 times their total weight for 3 hours (i.e., 2700g, about 2.7L). Add Platycladus orientalis leaves, dried ginger, chrysanthemum, Sapindus mukorossi, Gleditsia sinensis, duckweed, Eclipta prostrata, Ligustrum lucidum, Kuding tea, mint, Artemisia argyi, mulberry leaves and Perilla frutescens. Add room temperature water until the liquid level is 10cm above the surface of the herbs. Soak at room temperature for 3 hours. After soaking, drain and collect all the herbs to obtain the pre-treated raw materials.

[0041] (3) Mix the pretreated raw material with 6L of rice water, boil and simmer for 2 hours, cool to below 40°C and filter to obtain the first medicinal juice and the first medicinal residue; boil the first medicinal residue with the remaining 6L of rice water for 2 hours in the same way, cool and filter to obtain the second medicinal juice; combine the first medicinal juice and the second medicinal juice to obtain the active components of traditional Chinese medicine.

[0042] (4) Heat and boil the active ingredients of the Chinese medicine, add 2500g of soap base in batches while stirring, and continue stirring for 1 hour. Slowly add 80g of camellia oil and continue stirring for 1 hour. Finally, add 50g of tea seed cake powder with a particle size of 60 mesh and 30g of arborvitae leaf powder with a particle size of 60 mesh, and stir until a uniform soap paste is formed.

[0043] (5) Pour the soap paste into the mold while it is still hot at 55°C, and let it stand and solidify for 15 hours at 28°C and 45% humidity. Demold the soap blank to obtain the soap blank. Place the soap blank flat in a well-ventilated and dark environment at 22°C and 55% humidity for 5 days, and then stand it upright for 5 days to obtain the Chinese herbal shampoo soap B.

[0044] The method of using the herbal shampoo soap A and herbal shampoo soap B in this embodiment of the invention is as follows: After wetting the hair, repeatedly rub the soap to create lather, gently massage the scalp with your fingers for 2-3 minutes, rinse thoroughly, and use 2-3 times a week.

[0045] Experiment 1: Cleansing, oil control, and dandruff removal efficacy test 1. Samples: Chinese herbal shampoo bar A, Chinese herbal shampoo bar B, and commercially available anti-dandruff shampoo.

[0046] 2. Study subjects: 90 volunteers with oily scalp and dandruff were randomly divided into 3 groups: experimental group A, experimental group B, and control group. Experimental group A used herbal shampoo bar A, experimental group B used herbal shampoo bar B, and control group used commercially available anti-dandruff shampoo. They washed their hair three times a week for 4 consecutive weeks.

[0047] 3. Test metrics: (1) Scalp oil removal rate: Measured before and after washing using the Sebumeter skin oil test probe; (2) Time for sebum secretion to recover: Record the time from washing until the scalp sebum content returns to the level before washing; (3) Dandruff reduction rate: Using a professional image analysis system, the area of ​​dandruff in a fixed scalp area was quantified, and the percentage reduction after 4 weeks of use was calculated; (4) Sensory evaluation: Volunteers rated the refreshing feeling and anti-itch effect after washing.

[0048] 4. Experimental Data:

[0049] All data in the table are averages from each group. In terms of cleansing power, both Product A and Product B outperform commercially available products, exhibiting significantly better oil control and longer-lasting effects, indicating that the herbal ingredients in Products A and B have a long-lasting effect in regulating sebum secretion. Regarding dandruff removal, Products A and Product B are significantly superior to commercially available dandruff-reducing products, indicating that the herbal ingredients in Products A and B of this invention have better combined antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects. From a sensory experience perspective, Products A and Product B of this invention receive higher scores in relieving itching and providing long-lasting refreshment, demonstrating their excellent soothing and conditioning effects.

[0050] Experiment 2: Hair growth and hair strengthening efficacy test 1. Samples: Extract of Product A (simulating shampoo contact), extract of Product B (simulating shampoo contact), positive control (minoxidil tincture), negative control (physiological saline).

[0051] 2. Study subjects: C57BL / 6 mouse hair removal model. After hair removal on the backs of mice, they were randomly divided into 4 groups. The treatment was applied topically once daily for 21 days.

[0052] 3. Test metrics: (1) Percentage of hair growth area: Take photos regularly and use ImageJ software to quantify the hair growth area.

[0053] (2) Histological observation of hair follicles: Skin sections were taken on day 21 and stained with HE to observe the number and morphology of hair follicles.

[0054] 4. Experimental Data:

[0055] The products A and B of this invention can significantly promote hair growth and accelerate the entry of hair follicles into the growth phase. Their effects are comparable to those of the positive control, and they can also increase the number of functional hair follicles.

[0056] Example 3: This embodiment provides two traditional Chinese medicine shampoo soaps, C and D. Shampoo soap C is based on Example 1, with the perilla content reduced to 30g; other components and preparation methods are the same as in Example 1. Shampoo soap D is based on Example 2, with the perilla content reduced to 30g; other components and preparation methods are the same as in Example 2.

[0057] The herbal shampoo bars C and D were compared with herbal shampoo bars A and B through tests of their cleansing, oil-controlling, and dandruff-removing effects. The research subjects and test indicators were the same as in Experiment 1. The experimental data are as follows:

[0058] All data in the table are averages from each group. Based on Examples 1 and 2, the perilla content was reduced from 60g to 30g, resulting in herbal shampoo soaps C and D compared to A and B: (1) There was no change in the scalp oil clearance rate and the time for oil secretion to recover.

[0059] (2) The dandruff reduction rate decreased after 4 weeks of use. Perilla has certain antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects and can assist Sophora flavescens and Platycladus orientalis in inhibiting Malassezia. Although Sophora flavescens is the main ingredient, halving the amount of perilla will weaken the synergistic effect. For stubborn dandruff, the reduction rate after long-term use will be slightly reduced.

[0060] (3) The refreshing feeling score after washing decreased significantly. Perilla helps with scalp microcirculation, and the refreshing feeling decreased after the content was halved.

[0061] (4) The anti-itch effect score decreased significantly during use. Perilla volatile oil is the core ingredient that provides a cooling sensation and immediate itch relief during washing. After the content is halved, the cooling and irritating sensation during washing is greatly reduced, and the user's subjective score will decrease significantly.

[0062] Example 4: This embodiment provides a traditional Chinese medicine shampoo bar E and a traditional Chinese medicine shampoo bar F, based on the formulas of Embodiments 1 and 2, with reduced content of four traditional Chinese medicines: Sophora flavescens, bitter tea, chrysanthemum, and Platycladus orientalis leaves.

[0063] Herbal Shampoo Soap E: The herbal ingredients are 50g of arborvitae leaves, 30g of chrysanthemum, 30g of sophora flavescens, and 30g of bitter tea. Other ingredients remain unchanged.

[0064] Chinese herbal shampoo bar F: The Chinese herbal ingredients are 50g of arborvitae leaves, 30g of chrysanthemum, 30g of sophora flavescens, and 30g of bitter tea, with other ingredients remaining unchanged.

[0065] The herbal shampoo bars E and F were compared with herbal shampoo bars A and B based on their cleansing, oil-controlling, and dandruff-removing effects. The research subjects and test indicators were the same as in Experiment 1. The experimental data are as follows: The indicators are compared as follows:

[0066] (1) The dandruff reduction rate decreased significantly: Sophora flavescens and Platycladus orientalis leaves are the core main agents for dandruff removal, and their antibacterial ability was greatly weakened after being halved.

[0067] (2) The antipruritic effect was greatly reduced: the drying and antipruritic effects of Sophora flavescens, the cooling and antipruritic effects of Platycladus orientalis leaves, and the wind-dispelling and heat-clearing effects of Chrysanthemum and Kuding tea were weakened, resulting in insufficient calming sensation of the scalp after washing, and the antipruritic score dropped the most.

[0068] (3) Decreased refreshing feeling: The scalp loses the cool and astringent feeling of chrysanthemum and bitter tea, and the "clear feeling" of the scalp becomes worse after washing.

[0069] (4) The cleaning power and oil control time remain unchanged.

[0070] Example 5: Three groups of active components of traditional Chinese medicine were prepared, with identical formulas. The first group was extracted with fermented rice water from Examples 1 and 2 to obtain herbal shampoo soap A and herbal shampoo soap B; the second group was extracted with an equal volume of ordinary water (control 1) to obtain herbal shampoo soap G and herbal shampoo soap H; the third group was extracted with an equal volume of citric acid aqueous solution adjusted to pH 4.0 (control 2) to obtain herbal shampoo soap I and herbal shampoo soap J.

[0071] The cleansing, oil-controlling, and dandruff-removing effects were tested, comparing Control 1 and Control 2 with herbal shampoo soaps A and B. The subjects and test indicators were the same as in Experiment 1. The experimental data are as follows:

[0072] (1) Regarding scalp health and long-lasting dandruff removal: The dandruff reduction rate of A / B (fermented rice water) was significantly higher than that of Control 1 and Control 2. This indicates that the effect of fermented rice water is not solely due to its acidity. Although Control 2 created the same acidic extraction environment, its dandruff removal effect was still significantly different from that of A / B. This proves that the lactic acid, B vitamins, amino acids, and other microbial metabolites in fermented rice water can assist traditional Chinese medicines such as Platycladus orientalis leaves and Sophora flavescens in synergistically inhibiting Malassezia, repairing the scalp barrier, and regulating the microecology. This effect cannot be achieved by a purely acidic environment.

[0073] (2) In terms of relieving itching and user experience: A / B had the highest scores for both itch relief and post-wash refreshing sensation. Although Control 2 was better than Control 1, it was significantly lower than A / B. This indicates that the active small molecule components in fermented rice water can effectively soothe scalp inflammation and provide an immediate cooling sensation, and its effect surpasses the astringent effect of simple acidic solutions.

[0074] (3) Regarding the duration of oil control: A / B had the longest oil secretion recovery time, while Control 2's oil control time was only slightly better than Control 1, but still lagged behind A / B. This indicates that fermented rice water has a more lasting and gentler regulatory effect on sebaceous glands. The fermented rice water used in this invention not only provides a suitable weakly acidic extraction environment, but its unique fermentation products are also key to its synergistic effect, enabling the final product to achieve better results than simply using water or acidic water in terms of dandruff removal, itch relief, long-lasting oil control, and user comfort.

[0075] Example 6: The preparation method of Example 1 was used to prepare the active component A of traditional Chinese medicine by fermenting rice water and using a segmented decoction process; The preparation method of Example 1 was used to prepare the active component B of the traditional Chinese medicine using ordinary water and a segmented decoction process; The preparation method of Example 1 was used to prepare the active component C of traditional Chinese medicine by fermenting rice water and a single decoction process.

[0076] The total flavonoid, total saponin and total polysaccharide contents were determined by ultraviolet spectrophotometry, and the results are shown in the table below.

[0077]

[0078] The fermented rice water combined with the segmented decoction process used in this invention can significantly improve the extraction efficiency of active components of traditional Chinese medicine. The extraction rates of total flavonoids, total saponins and total polysaccharides are all superior to those of ordinary water extraction or simplified processes, providing a material basis for the final efficacy of the product.
