Description

Technology Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a bilayer liquid sunscreen cosmetic composition having a transparent appearance. More specifically, the invention relates to a liquid sunscreen cosmetic composition having a bilayer that separates transparently, comprising a water-soluble sunscreen agent, phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid, and terephthalilyliden dicamphor sulfonic acid in the aqueous phase, and an oil-soluble sunscreen agent, isoamyl p-methoxycinnamate, in the oil phase. Background Technology

[0002] Sunlight can be broadly classified into visible light, infrared, and ultraviolet light. Among these, ultraviolet light can be divided into UV A (320-400nm), UV B (290-320nm), and UV C (200-290nm) based on wavelength. In particular, UV B is known to penetrate the epidermis and cause erythema, freckles, and inflammation, while UV A is known to penetrate the dermis, forming melanin and wrinkles and inducing skin cancer. Due to these dangers of ultraviolet radiation, consumer interest in sunscreen products is increasing, leading to the release of sunscreen products in various formulations.

[0003] With the launch of numerous sunscreen products, there is an effort to differentiate them in terms of appearance and ease of use to enhance competitiveness. In particular, continuous efforts have been made to develop transparent sunscreen products with distinctive appearances, such as in the previously disclosed Korean Patent No. 10-2020-0105091, "Anhydrous sunscreen in a transparent gel formulation," or the registered patent No. 10-1798024, "Transparent cosmetic composition having a UV-blocking function." However, these products all have limitations in that they are anhydrous formulations, resulting in a sticky texture and poor absorption, which makes them inconvenient to use. The problem to be solved

[0004] The inventors completed the present invention by confirming that by applying an aqueous phase containing a suitable water-soluble sunscreen and an oil phase containing an oil-soluble sunscreen in two layers, a transparent appearance, excellent usability, and superior UV blocking effect is achieved.

[0005] Accordingly, the present invention aims to provide a sunscreen in the form of a two-layer liquid formulation to realize a cosmetic composition for sunscreen that exhibits a transparent appearance. In particular, since there are dozens or more types of sunscreens, appropriate water-soluble and oil-soluble sunscreens were selected by verifying numerous combinations to find conditions for transparent separation, and the invention aims to provide a two-layer liquid cosmetic composition for sunscreen that separates transparently. means of solving the problem

[0006] The above-mentioned problem is achieved by a transparent bilayer cosmetic composition for sunscreen, characterized by comprising water-soluble sunscreen agents, phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid and terephthalilyliden dicamphor sulfonic acid, in the aqueous phase, and oil-soluble sunscreen agent, isoamyl p-methoxycinnamate, in the oil phase.

[0007] Preferably, the phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid, the terephthalilyliden dicamphor sulfonic acid, and the isoamyl p-methoxycinnamate may each be included in an amount of 0.001 to 15.0 weight% relative to the total weight of the cosmetic composition.

[0008] Additionally, preferably, the cosmetic composition may include one or more selected from the group consisting of purified water, moisturizers, emulsifiers, pH adjusters, and preservatives.

[0009] Also, preferably, the terephthalilylidendicampersulfonic acid is an aqueous solution diluted to a volume percentage of 33%.

[0010] Also preferably, the phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid, the aqueous solution of terephthalilylidendicampersulfonic acid diluted to a volume percentage of 33%, and the isoamyl p-methoxycinnamate may be included in a weight ratio of 1:1:1. Effects of the invention

[0011] The cosmetic composition for sunscreen according to the present invention contains phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid and terephthalilylidendicamphor sulfonic acid, which are water-soluble sunscreen agents, and isoamyl p-methoxycinnamate, which is an oil-soluble sunscreen agent, and has a two-layer liquid formulation with a transparent appearance and excellent sunscreen ability.
