[0050] Skin is the body's first line of defense against external aggressors, helping to protect the body from harmful substances such as bacteria. Healthy, hydrated skin helps ensure that it constantly renews itself to maintain its protective barrier function.
[0051] In today's society, people not only have to face the stimulation of sunlight ultraviolet rays, air pollution, and electronic products, but also have to face various pressures brought by life and work. People are in all kinds of adverse environments. Due to anxiety, inadequate sun protection, excessive skin care and other unhealthy lifestyles, the skin barrier becomes sub-healthy or even damaged, and the skin suffers from problems such as lack of moisture, oil-water imbalance, allergic redness, dryness, itching, stinging, redness and swelling.
[0052] Most of the products currently on the market that claim to have moisturizing and soothing effects mainly work by adding various moisturizing and anti-allergic ingredients to hydrate and block inflammation. Although these products can temporarily eliminate discomfort such as itching when used, their mechanism is only to relieve symptoms by inhibiting the release of inflammatory factors. The pathway of action is relatively simple and cannot fundamentally solve the problem of damaged skin barrier.
[0053] Dry and sensitive skin isn't a static state; it's a vicious cycle that, without intervention, can continue to worsen. The key focus at each stage of the sensitivity cycle should be on the damaged stratum corneum barrier. Therefore, truly disrupting the dry and sensitive skin cycle requires not only treating the symptoms but also repairing and strengthening the stratum corneum barrier function.
[0054] Based on this, the present application provides a skin care active ingredient and skin care product that can gently and efficiently produce moisturizing and soothing effects, effectively protect the skin barrier, maintain skin health, and has high safety.
[0055] The present invention provides a skin care active ingredient, comprising, by weight, 0.1-15 parts by weight of a moisturizing agent and 0.05-2 parts by weight of a soothing and anti-allergic agent; wherein the moisturizing agent comprises at least two of ceramide NP, hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate, and sodium hyaluronate; and the soothing and anti-allergic agent comprises a peony root extract.
[0056] Ceramide NP is the primary building block of the skin barrier's brick wall structure, stimulating the synthesis of endogenous sebum components to moisturize and repair dry, aging skin. Both hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate and sodium hyaluronate achieve moisturizing effects by strengthening the skin barrier and locking in moisture. The combination of hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate and sodium hyaluronate, which contain hyaluronic acid of varying molecular weights, covers the skin from the surface to the deeper layers, strengthening the skin's barrier function and locking in moisture for a moisturizing effect. Paeonia lactiflora root extract optimizes cellular energy efficiency through mitochondrial autophagy, combating skin aging.
[0057] By designing skin care active ingredients including ceramide NP, hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate, at least two of sodium hyaluronate and peony root extract, they work together to achieve efficient and gentle moisturizing and soothing effects, improve skin condition and maintain skin health.
[0058] In addition, the weight ratio of moisturizers and soothing anti-allergic agents in the skin care active ingredients is designed as above, so that the skin care active ingredients can act on the skin to moisturize and soothe, and the effect is long-lasting, while not causing any burden on the skin. It is highly safe, gently and efficiently improves the skin condition, effectively protects the skin barrier, and maintains the health of the skin.
[0059] It's important to note that healthy skin refers to skin that is smooth, soft, hydrated, even, firm, elastic, and flawless, based on the normal functioning of its physiological functions. Health is the foundation of beauty, and only healthy skin can achieve beauty. By empowering the skin with "balance, resilience, and self-healing abilities," we can gently and effectively maintain healthy skin.
[0060] Balance: The skin's surface and underlying layers, the stratum corneum and basal layer, each tightly bound together, enable the skin to maintain moisture and prevent water loss. The skin's ability to absorb and retain water, as well as the skin cells' ability to absorb and utilize oxygen, influence the skin's water balance and moisturizing capacity, as well as its metabolism and health, including its ability to heal itself.
[0061] Self-healing ability: The skin's ability to repair itself from damage, trauma, cell aging, etc., as well as the skin cells' ability to absorb and metabolize nutrients, affect the skin's metabolism and repair ability.
[0062] Resistance: The skin's ability to resist external environmental factors, including sunlight, pollutants, ultraviolet rays, bacteria, etc., as well as the skin cells' ability to identify and resist external pathogens and viruses, affect the health and appearance of the skin.
[0063] In this application, ceramide NP corresponds to "resistance," hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate and sodium hyaluronate correspond to "balance," and peony root extract corresponds to "self-healing power." By designing skincare actives consisting of at least two of ceramide NP, hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate, and sodium hyaluronate, along with peony root extract, this skincare active simultaneously incorporates "self-healing power," "resistance," and "balance," fundamentally improving skin and gently and efficiently maintaining healthy skin.
[0064] From another perspective, based on the framework of "balance, resistance, and self-healing power", the use of a combination of active ingredients that are "human homologous and plant-derived" can gently and efficiently achieve moisturizing and soothing effects, promoting the skin to a healthy state. In this application, ceramide NP, hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate, and sodium hyaluronate are ingredients that are human homologous, and peony root extract is an ingredient that is plant-derived. This application designs skin care active ingredients to include at least two of ceramide NP, hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate, and sodium hyaluronate, as well as peony root extract, so that the skin care active ingredients have both human homologous ingredients and plant-derived ingredients, achieving moisturizing and soothing effects efficiently and gently.
[0065] In one embodiment, the skin care active comprises 0.5-5 parts by weight of ceramide, 0.1-10 parts by weight of hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate and sodium hyaluronate. It will be appreciated that when the moisturizing agent for the skin care active comprises ceramide NP, hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate and sodium hyaluronate, the skin care active comprises 0.5-5 parts by weight of ceramide, 0.1-10 parts by weight of hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate and sodium hyaluronate. Wherein, 0.1-10 parts by weight of hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate and sodium hyaluronate refer to the total weight of hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate and sodium hyaluronate in the skin care active is 0.1-10 parts by weight. In the 0.1-10 parts by weight of hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate and sodium hyaluronate, the weight ratio of hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate to sodium hyaluronate is (2.5-4):(1.5-3). Exemplarily, in 0.1-10 parts by weight of hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate and sodium hyaluronate, sodium hyaluronate includes sodium hyaluronate with a molecular weight of 220 WDa, sodium hyaluronate with a molecular weight of 138 WDa, and sodium hyaluronate with a molecular weight of 36 WDa, and hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate includes hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate with a molecular weight of 3.9 WDa and hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate with a molecular weight of 7-8 KDa. 0.1-10 parts by weight of hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate and sodium hyaluronate have hyaluronic acid of various molecular weights, covering the skin surface to the deep layers of the skin, strengthening the skin barrier function, locking in moisture, and achieving a moisturizing effect. The 0.1-10 parts by weight of hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate and sodium hyaluronate in the following content are the same as this and will not be repeated here. For example, in 0.1-10 parts by weight of hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate and sodium hyaluronate, the weight ratio of hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate to sodium hyaluronate can be 3.5:2.5, 3:2.5, 3:2, 3.5:2, etc.
[0066] In one embodiment, the skin care active comprises 0.5-5 parts by weight of ceramide NPs and 0.1-10 parts by weight of hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate. It will be appreciated that when the moisturizing agent for the skin care active comprises ceramide NPs and hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate, the skin care active comprises 0.5-5 parts by weight of ceramide and 0.1-10 parts by weight of hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate.
[0067] In one embodiment, the skin care active comprises 0.5-5 parts by weight of ceramide NPs and 0.1-10 parts by weight of sodium hyaluronate. It will be appreciated that when the moisturizing agent for the skin care active comprises ceramide NPs and sodium hyaluronate, the skin care active comprises 0.5-5 parts by weight of ceramide and 0.1-10 parts by weight of sodium hyaluronate.
[0068] In one embodiment, the skin care active comprises 0.1-10 parts by weight of hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate and sodium hyaluronate. It will be appreciated that when the moisturizing agent for the skin care active comprises hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate and sodium hyaluronate, the skin care active comprises 0.1-10 parts by weight of hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate and sodium hyaluronate.
[0069] In one embodiment, when the soothing and anti-allergic agent is composed of a peony root extract, the skin care active comprises 0.05-2 parts by weight of the peony root extract.
[0070] In one embodiment, the skin care active further comprises 0.01-25 parts by weight of a moisturizing and repairing agent, comprising at least one of acetylglucosamine, α-hydroxy acid, hydroxyethylpiperazineethane sulfonic acid, phytic acid, and hexanoyl dipeptide-3 norleucine acetate. The moisturizing and repairing agent has moisturizing and repairing properties; for example, acetylglucosamine has moisture-locking, moisturizing, brightening, and repairing properties. Including a moisturizing and repairing agent in the skin care active further enhances the moisturizing effect while also imparting a repairing effect to the skin care active. By adjusting the weight ratio of the moisturizing and repairing agent as described above, the skin care active achieves moisturizing and repairing properties without burdening the skin, resulting in increased safety. Optionally, the skin care active comprises, by weight, at least one of: 0.01-5 parts by weight of acetylglucosamine, 0.01-5 parts by weight of α-hydroxy acid, 0.01-5 parts by weight of hydroxyethylpiperazineethanesulfonic acid, 0.01-5 parts by weight of phytic acid, and 0.01-5 parts by weight of hexanoyl dipeptide-3 norleucine acetate. Optionally, the skin care active comprises a moisturizing and repairing agent.

[0092] Experimental steps:
[0093] (1) Cells were seeded into 96-well plates, and 100 μL of culture medium containing 8 × 103 cells was added to each well. The plates were incubated at 37°C for 24 h until the cells adhered to the plate and entered the logarithmic growth phase.
[0094] (2) After 24 hours, the culture medium in step (1) was discarded, and 100 μL of the test solution of different concentrations was added to each well. Three parallel wells were set for each concentration, and the cells were incubated for 24 hours.

[0096] (4) Measure the absorbance at 450 nm using an enzyme-labeled instrument.
[0097] Calculation method: Cell viability*(%)=[A(sample added)-A(blank) / [A(0 sample added)-A(blank)]×100;
[0098] Wherein, A(sample added) represents the absorbance of the wells containing cells, CCK-8 solution, and test solution;

[0120] (3) Detection: The absorbance at 517 nm was measured using an enzyme-labeled instrument, and the inhibition rate was calculated.
[0121] Calculation method: inhibition rate % = (1-A1 / A0) × 100%;
[0122] Wherein, A0 represents the absorbance value of the blank group at 517 nm; A1 represents the absorbance value of the sample group at 517 nm.
[0123] It should be noted that the sample is the skin care product of this application. The blank group refers to the wells without sample added.
