Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of cosmetics, in particular to a sunscreen composition containing Malus sylvestris Mill seed oil and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Sunscreen active substances can be mainly divided into physical sunscreen and chemical sunscreen. The atomic particles of physical sunscreen are flaky, which can form a protective film on the skin to reflect sunlight and prevent ultraviolet rays from penetrating the skin surface, thereby achieving the purpose of sunscreen. Although physical sunscreen has a high safety factor, physical sunscreen products have the disadvantages of unnatural and insufficient moisturizing after being applied on the face, high requirements for removal, and insufficient sunscreen experience. Chemical sunscreen is a light-transmitting substance that can absorb ultraviolet rays and convert them into molecular vibration energy or heat energy to achieve the effect of sunscreen, and has the advantages of being light and easy to remove, but has a higher degree of irritation to the skin after use, and may not be environmentally friendly.

[0003] The use of chemical sunscreen agents in formulations poses a safety risk. Chemical sunscreen agents are divided into two categories based on safety and environmental friendliness. The first category is safe and environmentally friendly sunscreen agents, and the second category is sunscreen agents with safety risks / regulatory risks / environmental unfriendliness. The high amount of addition of the second category in formulations is commonly used to meet high-efficiency sunscreen, but it affects the proportion of natural ingredients in the formulation and cannot meet the requirements of environmental protection and safety. For example, ethylhexyl methoxy cinnamate, which is widely used in the market, is not environmentally friendly, and the maximum allowable concentration is 10%. Hawaii has banned the use of this sunscreen agent, and there is no solution to reduce or replace this controversial sunscreen agent. At the same time, excessive addition of such chemical sunscreen agents also affects the acceptance of the skin to the formulation product, the greasy feeling of the sunscreen product is aggravated, and the skin feels unwell, such as oiliness, whitening, and skin conditions such as skin sensitivity and pore blockage.

[0004] Environmental friendliness, especially ocean and coral friendliness, is a trend that sunscreen products will inevitably move towards in the future. Unfriendly sunscreen agents will gradually be eliminated when consumers purchase them, and there is an urgent need for more green and natural sunscreen products that do not have regulatory or safety disputes. SUMMARY

[0005] The present application provides a sunscreen composition containing Malus sylvestris Mill seed oil and a preparation method and application thereof.

[0071] Performance test

[0072] 1. The SPF and PA values of the sunscreens of the examples and comparative examples were measured using a SPF-290S instrument. The principle of the instrument is that, according to the performance of the ultraviolet absorbers and shielding agents in sunscreen cosmetics, which can block ultraviolet rays, the product is applied to a special material, irradiated with different wavelengths of ultraviolet rays, and the absorbance value of the sample is measured. In combination with software operation, the SPF value and the critical wavelength of PA can be obtained in a short time, and the sunscreen effect can be directly evaluated according to the size of the measured value. The test method is as follows: the sample is uniformly applied to a 5 cm*5 cm PMMA plate using a syringe, the application amount is 5 mg, a finger cot is worn to apply the sample uniformly, and after the application is completed, the sample is placed in a dark environment for 20 minutes before being scanned and tested on the instrument. After completion, the ultraviolet absorption curve and the SPF and PFA values of the sample are obtained, and the test results are shown in Table 5 below.

[0073] Specifically, the conversion method between PFA value and PA is as follows:

[0074] PFA value less than 2: no UVA protection effect;

[0075] PFA value 2-3: PA+, representing effective, which can delay 2-4 times of tanning time;

[0076] PFA value 4-7: PA++, representing quite effective, which can delay 4-8 times of tanning time;

[0077] PFA value 8-15: PA+++, representing very effective, which can delay 8-15 times of tanning time;

[0078] PFA value ≥ 16: PA++++, which can delay more than or equal to 16 times of tanning time.

[0079] 2. The stability centrifuge test of the sunscreens of the examples and comparative examples was performed using a TG-16 high-speed centrifuge with a centrifuge stability test parameter of 3000 rpm / 30 min. The test results are shown in Table 5 below. If there is centrifugal oil floating, centrifugal stratification, or centrifugal non-uniformity, it is considered to be centrifugally unstable, and is determined to be unqualified.

[0080] Table 5 - Results of instrumental SPF and PA values of sunscreens in examples and comparative examples of the present application

[0081]

[0082]

[0083] Comparing the results of examples 2-6 and comparative examples 1-2, 5 in table 5, and Figure 1 It can be seen that ethylhexyl methoxy cinnamate has a strong absorption peak in the UVB band, and that argan oil has a strong absorption peak in the UVA and UVB ultraviolet full band, so the addition of argan oil can replace ethylhexyl methoxy cinnamate. When the content of argan oil is more than 5%, complete replacement can be achieved, the sunscreen synergistic effect is best, the SPF value and PFA value are both high, and an environmentally friendly mild sunscreen is prepared, which reduces the safety hazards of the formula under the premise of meeting the sunscreen value.

[0084] Comparing the sunscreen coefficients of comparative examples 1-4 and comparative example 2, it can be found that comparative example 2 does not add argan oil compared to examples 1-4. It can be found that the SPF value of example 3 is increased by 26.5% compared to comparative example 2, and the PFA value is increased by 25%. The SPF value of example 4 is increased by 44.3% compared to comparative example 2, and the PFA value is increased by 72%. This shows that when argan oil is used to partially replace ethylhexyl methoxy cinnamate in the formula, the sunscreen synergistic effect is higher, and the safety hazards of the formula are reduced under the premise of improving the sunscreen value.

[0085] Comparing the sunscreen coefficients of comparative examples 5-6, comparative example 1 and comparative example 5, it can be found that comparative example 5 does not add argan oil compared to comparative example 1 and examples 5-6. It can be found that the SPF value of comparative example 1 is increased by 75.4% compared to comparative example 5, and the PFA value is increased by 14.2%. The SPF value of example 5 is increased by 176.6% compared to comparative example 5, and the PFA value is increased by 107.4%. The SPF value of example 6 is increased by 178.5% compared to comparative example 5, and the PFA value is increased by 130.8%. The sunscreen synergistic effect is large, which shows that when argan oil completely replaces ethylhexyl methoxy cinnamate to more than 5%, the sunscreen synergistic effect of argan oil and other components can be better realized.

[0086] It can be seen from the comparison of the results of Examples 3, 7 and Comparative Examples 3, 6 in Table 5 that when the sea buckthorn seed oil is not substituted or partially substituted for ethylhexyl methoxy cinnamate, the sunscreen system composed of the oil-soluble UVA filter, the oil-soluble UVB filter and the full-waveband chemical sunscreen agent can meet the requirement of high sun protection factor, and the addition of titanium dioxide does not result in the failure to meet the sun protection factor, while when the sea buckthorn seed oil is completely substituted for ethylhexyl methoxy cinnamate, the sunscreen system composed of the oil-soluble UVA filter, the oil-soluble UVB filter, the full-waveband chemical sunscreen agent and titanium dioxide is required to meet the requirement of high sun protection factor, and the absence of titanium dioxide or the full-waveband chemical sunscreen agent makes the sunscreen synergistic effect of the sea buckthorn seed oil insufficient.

[0087] The above-described specific embodiments further illustrate the purpose, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the present application, and it should be understood that the above-described embodiments are merely specific embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present application. It is particularly pointed out that any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made by those skilled in the art within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
