[0025] <Comparative Example 1> The difference between Comparative Example 1 and Example 1 is that in Comparative Example 1, cinnamon bark, Millettia spatholobi and Centella asiatica are directly added into the extraction container for extraction, and the rest is the same as Example 1.
[0026] <Comparative Example 2> The difference between Comparative Example 2 and Example 1 is that the residue after extracting volatile oil from cinnamon bark and Centella asiatica are not added to Comparative Example 2, that is, only Millettia spatholobi is included, and the rest is the same as Example 1.
[0027] <Acute skin irritation test> Method: The acute skin irritation test was conducted with reference to the Technical Specifications for Safety of Cosmetics (2021) with adaptive modifications, as follows: Select 2.4-2.6kg rabbits, half male and half female, and remove the hair on both sides of their backs 24 hours before the test without damaging the skin. The area of hair removal on each side is about 2cm×2cm. Take about 0.5g of the test substance and apply it on one side of the skin, then cover it with gauze and fix it with non-irritating adhesive tape. The skin on the other side is a blank control. Remove the residual test substance with warm water 6 hours after application. 2 hours after removing the test substance, observe whether the skin on the back of the rabbit is erythematous and edema. According to the degree of erythema and edema, score it according to Table 1, and take the average score of 10 groups of tests as the final score. Collect the final score and compare it with Table 2 to grade the irritation of the test substance to the skin. Among them, the average score = (total score of erythema and eschar formation + total score of edema formation) / total number of animals.
[0028] Table 1 Scoring criteria for skin symptom reactions Table 2 Evaluation criteria for skin irritation intensity Sample: Take the skin care lotions in Examples 1-2 and Comparative Examples 1-2 as test objects, conduct acute skin irritation test, and record the skin irritation intensity of each test object according to Table 2. The specific results are shown in Table 3.
[0029] Table 3 Acute skin irritation test results of each embodiment and comparative example As can be seen from Table 3, when cinnamon is used to prepare skin care lotion without removing volatile oil, it is mildly irritating to the skin. The skin care lotion prepared by using the residue after extracting volatile oil from cinnamon is mild and non-irritating to the skin and is relatively safe to use.
[0030] <Effects of xylene on ear swelling in mice> Methods: Take 6 mice weighing 20-22 g, half male and half female, and evenly apply 0.5 g of the test substance on both sides of the right ear of each mouse. After 20 minutes, evenly apply 0.05 ml of xylene on both sides of the right ear of each mouse to induce inflammation. The left ear was not applied as a control. After 30 minutes of xylene application, the mice were killed, and the left and right ears of the mice were cleaned with distilled water and wiped dry. The same area of the left and right ears of the mice was cut off with a 9 mm diameter puncher, and weighed with an electronic balance. The difference in weight between the left and right ear pieces was used as the swelling index to calculate the swelling degree of each experimental group.
[0031] Sample group: The skin care lotions prepared in Example 1, Example 2 and Comparative Example 2 were respectively used as test objects, and the effect of xylene on the swelling of the auricle of mice was tested. The difference in weight between the left and right auricles of the mice was recorded, and the swelling degree was calculated; Blank group: The difference between the mice in the blank group and the mice in the sample group is that the test substance was replaced with 0.5g of normal saline, and the rest was the same; Each group of experiments was tested six times in parallel and the average value was taken. The average values of the experiments of the sample group and the blank group were collected. The specific results are shown in Table 4.
[0032] Table 4 Swelling results of sample group and blank group <Anti-irritation and repair efficacy test> Methods: 30 volunteers aged 20-45 years without immunodeficiency or history of skin disease were selected as subjects and randomly divided into three groups. The ears of the subjects were used as the test site. Three days before the test, no external products or cosmetics were used on the test site. During the test, after the subjects cleaned their ears, 5% sodium lauryl sulfate solution was evenly applied to the test site of each subject, and then 10% lactic acid was applied to the test site of each subject. After 20 minutes of application, the test site of the subjects showed burning, pain, erythema, itching and edema symptoms (proving that the exogenous substances stimulated the skin to form various skin symptoms successfully). Then the test substance was applied to the test site, 0.3g of the test substance was applied per square centimeter of the test site, once in the morning and evening every day, and after 7 consecutive days of application, the degree of disappearance of various skin symptoms in the test site of the subjects was recorded.
[0033] Sample: The skin care lotions prepared in Example 1, Example 2 and Comparative Example 2 were used as test objects. The degree of relief of various skin symptoms at the test sites of the test subjects in each group of tests was recorded. Each group was tested 10 times in parallel and the average value was taken. The specific results are shown in Table 5.
[0034] Table 5 The degree of relief of skin symptoms of the subjects in each experimental group after continuous application of the test substance to the test site for 7 days It can be seen from Table 5 that the skin care lotion prepared in the present application can more effectively relieve various skin symptoms after continuous application for 7 days, and the skin care lotion with added monk fruit volatile oil can further relieve various skin symptoms, indicating that the skin care lotion of the present application has anti-irritation and repair effects.
[0035] <Whitening and Skin Care Effect Color Difference Test> The subjects of the human test were voluntary participants, and the grouping principle was random grouping. The subjects were aged 35-50 years old, had healthy skin, and had no history of cosmetic allergies. There were 3 people in each group, and a total of 5 groups. The skin care lotions prepared in Example 1, Example 2 and Comparative Example 2 were applied to the left and right front wall arm bends of the subjects, once in the morning and evening. The control group was not treated. The color difference of the left and right arms was tested 6 times continuously using a colorimeter 1 day before using the whitening skin care lotion, and after 1 week, 2 weeks, and 3 weeks of use, and the average value was taken.
[0036] The test index uses a colorimeter to measure the color difference ΔL between the left and right arms. A positive ΔL indicates that the left arm is whiter than the right arm, and a negative ΔL indicates that the left arm is darker than the right arm. The results are shown in Table 6.
[0037] Table 6 Changes in ΔL values of each group before and after use As can be seen from Table 6, when Millettia spatholobi is used alone, the whitening effect is not ideal; Millettia spatholobi has a certain whitening effect when used in combination with cinnamon and Centella asiatica; Millettia spatholobi has a better whitening effect when used in combination with cinnamon, Centella asiatica and Momordica grosvenori.
[0038] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been disclosed as above, they are not limited to the applications listed in the specification and the implementation modes. They can be fully applied to various fields suitable for the present invention. For those familiar with the art, additional modifications can be easily implemented. Therefore, without departing from the general concept defined by the claims and the scope of equivalents, the present invention is not limited to specific details.
