Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of skin care technology, and in particular to a composition, skin care product, and preparation method that have skin smoothing and firming functions. Background Technology

[0002] As we age, our skin exhibits signs of aging, primarily manifested as decreased smoothness and elasticity, and increased roughness. Since facial skin is in direct contact with the external environment, this environment inevitably influences its condition. Therefore, protecting the skin and minimizing environmental damage is crucial, and this requires safeguarding the skin barrier. During this contact, the skin barrier can be damaged to varying degrees, resulting in changes in skin roughness and elasticity. This is especially true for people with sensitive skin, whose skin barriers are more easily compromised, making them more susceptible to harm. Therefore, when choosing skincare products, it is essential to consider those that reduce skin roughness, improve elasticity and smoothness, and repair the skin barrier.

[0003] Many commercially available daily cosmetics claiming to tighten skin and reduce roughness have certain drawbacks. For example, the domestic patent application CN202010385535.0 uses unclear active ingredients, lacks sufficient safety, and has excessively high hardware costs, making large-scale production difficult. Another example is the domestic patent application CN201811515102.1, which uses specific active ingredients, but the composition of these ingredients is extremely complex, and the manufacturing process is cumbersome, also hindering large-scale production and application. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a product with a simple active ingredient composition, a simple production process, and effective skin-smoothing and firming properties.

[0086] Table 1. Percentage of each ingredient in the face cream by mass

[0087]

[0088] The efficacy of the face creams prepared in Examples 1 to 5 and Comparative Examples 1 to 7 was tested.

[0089] 1. Subjects:

[0090] The study included 120 female participants aged 20-55 years. Each group consisted of 10 participants, divided into 12 groups, who used the face creams prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-7, respectively.

[0091] All enrolled participants were healthy volunteers from Shanghai, with no history of skin diseases or other serious illnesses within the past three months, and who had not taken any antibiotics or hormonal medications. Written informed consent forms were provided to all participants before the study began, and they signed them after thorough communication. This research protocol has been approved by the Fudun Ethics Committee, and the entire research process was subject to strict supervision and guidance from the committee. The personal privacy and data security of the participants were strictly guaranteed.

[0092] Environmental conditions: The experimental environment was set according to the experimental requirements (temperature 20℃~22℃, humidity 40%~60%), and the subjects adapted to the experimental environment for 15 to 30 minutes or more.

[0093] 2. Test instruments:

[0094] (1) Vc20 (Courage & Khazaka GmbH, Visioscan® vc20plus, Cologne, Germany)

[0095] The Vc20 testing principle: A special CCD skin imaging system with an ultraviolet light source within the probe tests the skin surface, obtaining an image of the skin's active state. The black-and-white video signal reflecting the skin's active state is input into the testing system's digitizer for processing, and then into a computer. Analysis using dedicated active skin surface evaluation software SELS yields four numerical parameters evaluating the active skin surface condition, including the skin roughness SEsc value. This instrument can be used by dermatologists, cosmetic and pharmaceutical researchers to observe skin pathology and pigmentation, and to evaluate the efficacy of cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.

[0096] (2) Cutometer (Courage & Khazaka GmbH, Cologne, Germany)

[0097] Cutometer test principle: Based on the suction method, the skin's shape is mechanically changed by using negative pressure to measure the elasticity of the epithelial layer. The R2, R5, R7, F4 values ​​and collagen density values ​​can be obtained. A significant increase in the R2, R5, R7 values ​​and collagen density values ​​or a significant decrease in the F4 value before and after product use indicates that the product has the effect of tightening the skin.

[0098] 3. Test methods:

[0099] A series of tests were conducted on volunteers using various instruments. First, the subjects who passed the selection / exclusion screening form arrived at the testing center to sign the informed consent form, wash their face, straighten their hair, and sit quietly for 30 minutes. After the sitting time, VC20 images were taken. After the images were taken, the elasticity and texture of the skin around both eyes were tested. The data collection time points were before application (W0), after 2 weeks of consistent application (W2), after 4 weeks of consistent application (W4), and after 8 weeks of consistent application (W8).

[0100] 4. Data Analysis:

[0101] This experiment calculates the average value of the data obtained from each experiment, and compares the average value of the data measured before applying different examples or comparative proportions of the product to any test sample to obtain the mean change rate of the relevant parameters. If the change rate maintains a certain increase or decrease over a long period of time, it has a certain degree of universality.

[0102] 5. Test Results and Analysis

[0103] The Sesc, F4, R2, R5, R7, and collagen density values ​​mentioned below are the average values ​​of the Sesc, F4, R2, R5, R7, and collagen density values ​​of each of the 10 subjects in each group.

[0104] (1) Changes in the roughness of the skin around the eyes of the subjects:

[0105] Using the Vc20 instrument, skin images of each subject before and after applying the products of each embodiment and comparative example can be obtained. After digital processing, the skin roughness SEsc value can be obtained from the skin images.

[0106] SEsc value reduction rate (%) = (SEsc value before application - SEsc value after application) / SEsc value before application * 100%.

[0107] Table 2. Decrease rate of SEsc value of skin roughness around the eyes after 8 weeks of applying face cream.

[0108]

[0109] As shown in Table 2, after the subjects used the face creams of Examples 1 to 5 and Comparative Examples 1 to 7, the skin roughness of the subjects decreased to a certain extent. Compared with Comparative Examples 1 to 7, the decrease in skin roughness of Examples 1 to 5 was more obvious, indicating that Examples 1 to 5 had a better effect on improving skin roughness, especially Example 3, which had the most significant effect.

[0110] (2) Changes in the elasticity of the skin around the eyes of the subjects:

[0111] The Cutometer instrument was used to test the skin physiological parameters of each subject before and after using the face cream in each embodiment and comparative example, including F4 value, R2 value, R5 value, R7 value, and collagen density value.

[0112] 1) Analysis of F4 value changes over time:

[0113] The rate of decrease in F4 value is shown in Table 3 below.

[0114] F4 value reduction rate (%) = [F4 value before application - F4 value after application] / F4 value before application * 100%.

[0115] Table 3. Rate of decrease in F4 value of skin around the eyes after 8 weeks of applying face cream.

[0116]

[0117] 2) Analysis of R² value changes over time:

[0118] The rate of increase of R2 values ​​is shown in Table 4 below.

[0119] R2 value increase rate (%) = [R2 value after application - R2 value before application] / R2 value before application * 100%.

[0120] Table 4. Increase rate of R2 value in the skin around the eyes after 8 weeks of applying face cream.

[0121]

[0122] 3) Analysis of R5 value changes over time:

[0123] The rate of increase of R5 values ​​is shown in Table 5 below.

[0124] R5 value increase rate (%) = [R5 value after application - R5 value before application] / R5 value before application * 100%.

[0125] Table 5. Increase rate of R5 value in the skin around the eyes after 8 weeks of applying face cream.

[0126]

[0127] 4) Analysis of R7 value changes over time:

[0128] The rate of increase of R7 values ​​is shown in Table 6 below.

[0129] R7 value increase rate (%) = [R7 value after application - R7 value before application] / R7 value before application * 100%.

[0130] Table 6. Increase rate of R7 value in the skin around the eyes after 8 weeks of applying face cream.

[0131]

[0132] 5) Analysis of changes in collagen density over time:

[0133] The rate of increase in collagen density values ​​is shown in Table 7 below.

[0134] Collagen density increase rate (%) = [Collagen density value after application - Collagen density value before application] / Collagen density value before application * 100%.

[0135] Table 7. Increase rate of collagen density in the skin around the eyes after 8 weeks of applying face cream.

[0136]

[0137] As shown in Tables 3 to 7, after the subjects used the face creams of Examples 1 to 5 and Comparative Examples 1 to 7, the subjects' skin F4 values ​​all decreased to some extent, while the R2, R5, R7 values ​​and collagen density values ​​all increased to some extent. Compared with Comparative Examples 1 to 7, the decrease rate of skin F4 value and the increase rate of R2, R5, R7 values ​​and collagen density values ​​of Examples 1 to 5 were more obvious, indicating that Examples 1 to 5 have better effects on tightening the skin and restoring skin elasticity, especially Example 3, which has the most significant effect.
