Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an emulsion cosmetic composition having excellent stability. Background Art

[0002] In order to provide various functional ingredients to the skin, a variety of emulsified cosmetics are used, and emulsified cosmetics are generally divided into oil-in-water (O / W) type and water-in-oil (W / O) type formulations. They all contain an oil phase and an aqueous phase, and therefore have the advantages of providing a softening effect and a moisturizing effect. Various technologies are being developed to improve the physical properties of formulation stability of oil-in-water (O / W) type or water-in-oil (W / O) type cosmetic compositions, for example, Korean Patent Publication No. 1996-001690 discloses a water-in-oil-in-water (W / O / W) type cosmetic composition containing a W / O preparation containing a polyperfluoromethyl isopropyl ether group. However, there is a problem in conventional emulsified formulations that when an unstable component is loaded in the functional ingredient, the formulation is easily separated, or the functional ingredient precipitates from the formulation.

[0003] In order to improve the stability of these emulsion-type cosmetic compositions, a high content of surfactant is generally used, but this goes against the preferences of consumers who recently pay attention to environmental protection and skin safety. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an emulsion cosmetic composition that is excellent in the stability of the interfacial film between the aqueous phase and the oil phase without containing a surfactant.

[0022] The self-emulsifying stabilizer may be included in an amount of 0.01 wt % to 5 wt % based on the total weight of the cosmetic composition. When the content of the self-emulsifying stabilizer is lower than the above range, the self-emulsifying particles may not be maintained, and when the content exceeds the above range, irritation to the skin may be caused.

[0023] The self-emulsification inducer and the self-emulsification stabilizer can be mixed in a weight ratio of 1:0.002 to 100. When the mixing ratio of the self-emulsification stabilizer to the self-emulsification inducer is lower than the above range, self-emulsification or emulsification may not be maintained, and when it exceeds the above range, skin irritation may be caused or self-emulsification may not be maintained.

When the content of the active ingredient is lower than the above range, it is difficult to expect the efficacy on the skin, and when it exceeds the above range, it may cause irritation to the skin.

[0034] The aqueous phase comprises purified water in an amount satisfying 100 wt % of the total weight of the cosmetic composition. For example, based on the total weight of the cosmetic composition, the aqueous phase may comprise 5 wt % to 95 wt % of purified water.

[0035] oil phase

[0036] The oil phase of the emulsion cosmetic composition according to the present invention comprises an oil phase stabilizer, and the oil phase may further comprise a self-emulsifying stabilizer, an effective ingredient, and additives conventionally used in the art.

[0037] The oil phase contains an oil phase stabilizer.

For example, the oil phase stabilizer may include amino acid derivatives such as N-lauroyl-L glutamic acid, α,γ-di-n-butylamine, etc., dextrin fatty acid esters such as dextrin palmitate, dextrin stearate, dextrin palmitate / ethylhexanoate, dextrin myristate, etc., sucrose fatty acid esters such as sucrose palmitate, sucrose stearate, etc., oligofructose fatty acid esters such as inulin stearate, oligofructose 2-ethylhexanoate, etc., sorbitol benzylidene derivatives,Such as monobenzyl sorbitol, dibenzylidene sorbitol, polyurethane-79, polyethylene, glyceryl behenate, glyceryl behenate / eicosadioate, stearyl inulin, trihydroxystearin, polybutene, polyamide-2, polyamide-3, polyamide-5, polyamide-8, hydrogenated vegetable oil, isophorone diisocyanate copolymer, bentonite, hectorite, montmorillonite, attapulgite, sepiolite, calcium silicate, etc. At least one of the group consisting of silicate, silica, silica silylate, silica dimethyl silylate, polymethylsilsesquioxane / silica crosspolymer, mica, polymethyl methacrylate, nylon-6, iron oxide, tin oxide, methyl methacrylate crosspolymer, titanium dioxide, synthetic fluorphlogopite, polymethylsilsesquioxane, ethylene / propylene / styrene copolymer, butylene / ethylene / styrene copolymer, but not limited thereto.

[0038] Based on the total weight of the cosmetic composition, the oil phase stabilizer may be included in an amount of 0.5 wt % to 80 wt %, for example, 1 wt % to 40 wt %. When the content of the oil phase stabilizer is lower than the above range, the high temperature and long-term stability enhancement effect may be minimal, and when it exceeds the above range, the viscosity and hardness increase, which not only destroys the feeling of use, but also makes the preparation of the emulsion difficult.

[0039] The oil phase may further contain a self-emulsifying stabilizer.
