Description
An anti-aging and repairing composition containing Camellia chrysantha extract and its application Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of liposomes, specifically to an anti-aging and repairing composition containing Camellia chrysantha extract, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] In today's society, with the improvement of people's living standards and the enhancement of health awareness, anti-aging and repair have become one of the core demands in the skin care field. Facial skin aging is a complex and gradual process, affected by multiple factors such as natural aging, photoaging, unhealthy lifestyle, environmental pollution, and mental stress. It manifests as a series of problems such as increased wrinkles, loose skin, age spots, and decreased barrier function, which seriously affect people's appearance and mental health.
[0003] Currently, there are numerous anti-aging and repair products on the market, with lotions serving as a basic category in daily skincare. However, existing anti-aging and repair lotions still have many shortcomings. On the one hand, some product formulas lack scientific rigor and systematic approach, relying excessively on single ingredients or blindly piling on popular ingredients, making it difficult to comprehensively and effectively address skin aging issues. They may even cause secondary damage to the skin due to incompatibility or irritation between ingredients. Therefore, how to reduce product irritation and improve user comfort while ensuring anti-aging and repair effects has become a key issue that urgently needs to be addressed in current anti-aging and repair products. On the other hand, the active ingredients in skincare products often have difficulty penetrating deeply to exert their effects due to the skin barrier. Therefore, this can be addressed by developing novel liposome-enhanced permeation technology. Liposomes, due to their similarity to cell membrane structures, can smoothly pass through the gaps between keratinocytes, promoting the transdermal absorption of active ingredients and thus improving bioavailability. Simultaneously, liposomes have an encapsulation effect, protecting active ingredients and improving their stability and solubility. However, most liposomes currently on the market encapsulate single ingredients and have poor stability. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide an anti-aging and repairing composition containing Camellia chrysantha extract, its preparation method and application. The core layer of the liposome composition includes Camellia chrysantha extract and sodium DNA, and the shell layer includes ceramide and enzymatically hydrolyzed tea extract. By using coated liposome encapsulation technology, this invention can simultaneously promote the transdermal absorption of these active ingredients, thereby achieving better efficacy.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:
[0006] In a first aspect, the present invention provides an anti-aging and repairing composition containing Camellia chrysantha extract, wherein the anti-aging and repairing composition is a liposome composition, the liposome composition comprising, from the inside out, a core layer, a shell layer, and a chitosan coating; wherein the core layer comprises Camellia chrysantha extract and sodium DNA; the shell layer comprises lecithin, cholesterol, ceramide, and enzymatically hydrolyzed tea extract; the chitosan coating comprises chitosan; and the weight ratio of Camellia chrysantha extract, sodium DNA, lecithin, cholesterol, ceramide, enzymatically hydrolyzed tea extract, and chitosan is (0.1-10):(0.001-2):(0.1-10):(0.1-5):(0.001-2):(0.001-2):(0.01-3).
[0007] The function of the raw material in the liposome shell of the present invention is as follows:
[0008] The lecithin, as the main component of liposomes, possesses both hydrophilic and lipophilic properties. It is an important component of cell membranes, replenishing skin lipids, repairing damaged stratum corneum, and strengthening the skin barrier. Cholesterol, a crucial component of the skin's natural barrier, binds to lipids in liposomes, enhancing their stability and elasticity, and simultaneously strengthening skin barrier function. Chitosan molecules modify the liposome surface, giving it a positive charge, improving stability and skin absorption / permeability. It also possesses strong water absorption, repairing the skin barrier. Ceramides, a major component of intercellular lipids in the stratum corneum, help metabolize aging cells, stimulate new cell generation, smooth wrinkles, and repair the stratum corneum, playing a vital role in maintaining skin barrier function. The enzymatic hydrolysis technology for tea extract precisely breaks down tea cell walls, releasing more tea polyphenols, making the active ingredients in the tea extract more easily absorbed by the skin, exerting antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. Furthermore, the encapsulation of the tea extract within the liposome shell further enhances its skin permeability and stability.
[0009] The role of the raw material in the liposome core layer of the present invention is as follows:
[0010] The flavonoids and tea polyphenols in the Camellia chrysantha extract are the main antioxidants, which have the activity of scavenging free radicals, reducing the damage of oxidative stress to the skin, delaying skin aging, enhancing skin elasticity, and reducing the formation of wrinkles. The core advantage of the sodium DNA (polydeoxyribonucleic acid, PDRN) lies in activating the skin's self-repair ability at the cellular level, while providing a gentle anti-aging solution. It is encapsulated in the liposome core layer to improve its skin permeability and anti-aging effect.
[0011] The chitosan-coated liposomes have a positively charged surface. This positively charged liposomes can interact with the negatively charged surface of the skin, altering the secondary structure of keratin in the stratum corneum, increasing cell membrane fluidity and skin permeability, making it easier for the active ingredients in skincare products to be absorbed, thus enhancing product efficacy. Secondly, the chitosan-coated liposomes can exert antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects, reducing inflammatory symptoms and promoting skin healing. Their antibacterial mechanism mainly involves interacting with negatively charged components on the bacterial surface, disrupting the bacterial cell wall and cell membrane structure, leading to bacterial death. Furthermore, the liposomes of this invention have a core layer encapsulating Camellia chrysantha extract and sodium DNase, and a shell layer encapsulating ceramide and enzymatically hydrolyzed tea extract, which can simultaneously promote the stability and transdermal absorption of these active ingredients, thereby achieving better efficacy.

[0101] Sample group: Add 100 μL of cell suspension to each well, then add 50 μL (per well) of the sample solution of the compositions of Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-8 at 50 μg / mL, and pre-treat the 96-well plate in an incubator for 1 hour. After pre-treatment, add 50 μL of 1 μg / mL LPS solution to each well.
[0102] Positive control group: 100 μL of cell suspension was added to each well, followed by 50 μL of 1 μM dexamethasone solution. After pretreatment for 1 hour, 50 μL of 1 μg / mL LPS solution was added.
[0103] (2) Specific operations
[0104] Following the group settings, accurately add the corresponding drugs and LPS solution using a multichannel pipette to achieve a final volume of 200 μL per well. When adding the solution, avoid direct impact of the liquid on the cells; instead, gently add the solution by placing the pipette tip against the edge of the well wall.
[0105] After adding the samples, gently shake the 96-well plate to mix the solution thoroughly. Seal the 96-well plate with sealing film to prevent moisture evaporation and contamination. Incubate the treated cells in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator for 24 hours. During the incubation process, avoid frequently opening the incubator door to maintain a stable culture environment.
[0106] IV. Detection and Calculation of Inflammatory Factors
[0107] After 24 hours of incubation, remove the 96-well plate from the incubator and place it on an ice pack to prevent degradation of inflammatory factors. Transfer the cell culture supernatant from the 96-well plate to a new 96-well plate, avoiding aspirating cell pellets as much as possible. If further processing of the supernatant is required (e.g., centrifugation to remove cell debris), centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes at 4°C and collect the supernatant for detection. Follow the ELISA kit instructions, placing the ELISA plate in a microplate reader. Select the corresponding detection wavelength based on the TNF-α and IL-1α inflammatory factors in the kit and measure the absorbance (OD value) of each well. Plot the standard concentration on the X-axis and the OD value on the Y-axis using four-parameter logistic regression (4-PL) or linear regression to fit the curve. Substitute the sample OD values into the standard curve equation to calculate the TNF-α or IL-1α concentration (pg / mL), as shown in the following formula:
[0108] TNF-α inhibition rate (%) = (1 - TNF-α concentration in LPS group / TNF-α concentration in test sample group) × 100%;
[0109] IL-1α inhibition rate (%) = (1 - IL-1α concentration in LPS group / IL-1α concentration in test sample group) × 100%;
[0110] The test sample group includes the sample group, blank control group, and positive control group. Specific data are shown in Table 2.
[0111] Table 2. TNF-α inhibition rate and IL-1α inhibition rate of the compositions in each group.
[0112] Group / Performance TNF-α Inhibition Rate / % IL-1α Inhibition Rate / % Example 1 78.4 66.3 Example 2 76.3 64.5 Example 3 76.5 64.8 Example 4 72.2 62.2 Example 5 76.2 63.9 Example 6 69.4 61.2 Example 7 69.9 61.5 Comparative Example 1 29.7 24.5 Comparative Example 2 50.7 41.2 Comparative Example 3 57.9 49.2 Comparative Example 4 35.2 30.3 Comparative Example 5 39.9 31.7 Comparative Example 6 65.6 55.7 Comparative Example 7 63.0 54.1 Comparative Example 8 38.2 30.0 Blank Control Group 0.2 0.4 Positive Control Group 83.5 75.3 surface
[0113] As shown in Table 2, the higher the values of TNF-α inhibition rate and IL-1α inhibition rate, the better the anti-inflammatory properties of the composition.
[0114] Combining the data from Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-5, it can be seen that the TNF-α inhibition rate and IL-1α inhibition rate of Comparative Examples 1-5 were both lower than those of Example 1 to varying degrees. This indicates that the Camellia chrysanthemi extract contains flavonoids (quercetin, kaempferol), which reduce TNF-α transcription by inhibiting the NF-κB pathway, thus playing a key role in anti-inflammation. Tea leaves release small-molecule EGCG through enzymatic hydrolysis, enhancing permeability and directly inhibiting IL-1α convertase activity. Chitosan has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects, alleviating inflammatory symptoms. Sodium DNase accelerates tissue repair and indirectly reduces inflammatory triggering.
[0115] Based on the data from Example 1 and Comparative Examples 6 and 7, it can be seen that the active ingredients encapsulated by liposomes have a significant impact on the anti-inflammatory effect of the composition.
[0116] As can be seen from the comparison of Example 1 and Comparative Example 7, the anti-inflammatory properties of Comparative Example 7 are significantly lower than those of Example 1. This may be because the tea extract of Comparative Example 7 has not undergone enzymatic hydrolysis. The tea releases small molecule EGCG through the enzymatic hydrolysis process, which enhances permeability and directly inhibits the activity of IL-1α convertase.
[0117] Based on the data from Examples 1 and 1-7, it can be seen that when the weight ratio of Camellia chrysantha extract, sodium DNA, lecithin, cholesterol, ceramide, enzymatically hydrolyzed tea extract, and chitosan is (1.5-2):(0.05-0.1):(4-5):(0.8-1):(0.05-0.1):(0.05-0.1):(0.4-0.5), the anti-inflammatory effect of the composition is at a relatively optimal level.
[0118] Test Example 2: Composition Test for Promoting Collagen Production
[0119] I. Reagent Preparation
[0120] 1. Culture medium preparation: Prepare DMEM culture medium containing 10% (V / V) fetal bovine serum (FBS).
[0121] 2. Trypsin-EDTA solution: Aliquot the 0.25% trypsin-EDTA solution into small volumes and store at -20°C. Before use, thaw rapidly in a 37°C water bath to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles that may affect activity.
[0122] 3. PBS buffer: Prepare PBS buffer with pH 7.2-7.4, autoclave it, and store it at 4°C for cell washing.
[0123] 4. Cell lysis buffer: Select a suitable cell lysis buffer (such as RIPA lysis buffer containing protease inhibitors) according to experimental needs, and prepare it fresh for use to ensure lysis effect.
[0124] 5. Collagen test kit: Carefully read the kit instructions and remove the required reagents (such as standards, detection antibodies, colorimetric reagents, etc.) from the refrigerator in advance to allow them to reach room temperature.
[0125] 6. Sample Composition Solution: Dissolve the compositions of Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-8 separately in DMSO to prepare a stock solution of 10 mg / mL, and store at -20℃. During experiments, dilute with culture medium to a working concentration of 100 μg / mL, ensuring the final DMSO concentration does not exceed 0.1%.
[0126] II. Consumables Preparation
[0127] Cell culture consumables: Prepare sterile T75 culture flasks, 96-well cell culture plates, 15mL and 50mL centrifuge tubes, pipette tips (10μL, 200μL, 1000μL), cell scrapers, etc. Use as soon as possible after opening.
[0128] Other consumables: Prepare 96-well plate sealing film, ice box (to keep samples at low temperature), vortex shaker, aluminum foil (to protect reagents from light), etc.
[0129] III. Instrument Preparation
[0130] 1. Cell culture related instruments: Turn on the CO2 incubator in advance, adjust the temperature to 37℃, CO2 concentration to 5%, and humidity to above 95%, and clean and sterilize it. Pre-cool the centrifuge to 4℃ for cell centrifugation.
[0131] 2. Testing Instruments: Preheat and calibrate the ELISA reader in advance to ensure testing accuracy. Simultaneously, prepare instruments such as micropipettes and vortex mixers, and perform functional checks and calibrations.
[0132] IV. Cell Culture and Inoculation
[0133] Human fibroblasts were removed from the liquid nitrogen tank and rapidly thawed in a 37°C water bath, with constant shaking during the process. The thawed cell suspension was then seeded into T75 culture flasks and cultured in DMEM medium containing 10% FBS at 37°C and 5% CO2. Once the cells reached the logarithmic growth phase, they were digested with 0.25% trypsin-EDTA, and the cell density was adjusted to an appropriate level (e.g., 2 × 10⁶ cells / year). 5 The cells were seeded into 96-well plates, with an appropriate amount of cell suspension added to each well (100 μL per well).
[0134] V. Drug Treatment
[0135] 1. Group settings
[0136] Blank control group: 100 μL of cell suspension and 100 μL of culture medium were added to each well, without adding sample composition solution.
[0137] Sample group: Add 50 μL (per well) of the sample composition solution of Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-8 at a concentration of 100 μg / mL, and then add 50 μL of culture medium to make the final volume of each well 200 μL.
[0138] 2. Specific operations
[0139] Use a multichannel pipette to accurately add the corresponding sample solution and culture medium according to the group settings. When adding the solution, try to avoid liquid impacting the cells. You can put the pipette tip against the edge of the well wall and add the solution slowly.
[0140] After adding the samples, gently shake the 96-well plate to mix the solution thoroughly. Seal the 96-well plate with sealing film to prevent moisture evaporation and contamination. Place the treated cells in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator for 48 hours. During the incubation process, avoid frequently opening the incubator door to maintain a stable culture environment.
[0141] VI. Sample Collection and Collagen Detection
[0142] 1. Cell lysis
[0143] After culture, remove the 96-well plate from the incubator and place it on an ice box to prevent collagen degradation. Discard the culture medium and gently wash the cells twice with 100 μL PBS to remove residual medium. Add 50 μL of cell lysis buffer to each well and place the 96-well plate on ice for lysis for 30 minutes, gently shaking the plate every 5-10 minutes to ensure complete cell lysis. After lysis, transfer the lysis buffer to a 1.5 mL centrifuge tube and centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 10 minutes at 4°C. Collect the supernatant, avoiding aspirating any precipitate. Transfer the supernatant to a new centrifuge tube and store at -80°C for later use, or immediately perform collagen detection.
[0144] 2. Collagen detection and result calculation
[0145] Follow the instructions for the collagen detection kit. Place the ELISA plate in a microplate reader, select an appropriate wavelength (as specified in the kit), and measure the absorbance (OD value) of each well. Plot the standard concentration on the X-axis and the OD value on the Y-axis, and fit a curve using four-parameter logistic regression (4-PL) or linear regression. Substitute the sample OD values into the standard curve equation to calculate the collagen concentration (pg / mL). The specific formula is as follows:
[0146] Collagen concentration increase rate (%) = (collagen concentration) 样品组- Collagen concentration 空白对照组 Collagen concentration 空白对照组 ×100%; the results are shown in Table 3.
[0147] Table 3. Collagen increase rate of each group of samples
[0148] Group / Performance Collagen Increase Rate / % Example 1 296.0 Example 2 278.5 Example 3 280.8 Example 4 268.6 Example 5 277.3 Example 6 252.2 Example 7 221.2 Comparative Example 1 157.0 Comparative Example 2 142.5 Comparative Example 3 189.6 Comparative Example 4 172.7 Comparative Example 5 195.3 Comparative Example 6 206.2 Comparative Example 7 201.6.7 Comparative Example 8 180.6 Blank Control Group 0 surface
[0149] As shown in Table 3, the higher the collagen promotion rate, the better the repair effect of the composition.
[0150] Combining the data from Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-5, it can be seen that the collagen promotion rate of Comparative Examples 1-5 decreased to varying degrees compared to Example 1. This indicates that sodium DNA, as a direct activator of collagen synthesis, significantly increases dermal density by stimulating fibroblast proliferation and type III collagen expression. Camellia chrysanthemi extract is rich in flavonoids (such as kaempferol), which protect collagen structure by inhibiting MMP-1 enzyme, and its synergistic effect with sodium DNA enhances collagen density. Enzymatic hydrolysis of tea extract releases small molecule EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate), which penetrates the dermis and activates collagen gene transcription. Ceramides indirectly promote collagen synthesis by strengthening the skin barrier, reducing inflammatory damage, and protecting fibroblast function.
[0151] Based on the data from Example 1 and Comparative Examples 6 and 7, it can be seen that the collagen-promoting effect of the liposome-encapsulated component composition has a significant impact.
[0152] Based on the comparison of Example 1 and Comparative Example 7, it can be seen that the anti-inflammatory properties of Comparative Example 7 are significantly lower than those of Example 1. This may be because the tea extract of Comparative Example 7 has not undergone enzymatic hydrolysis, resulting in a lower EGCG content.
[0153] Based on the data from Examples 1 and 1-7, it can be seen that when the weight ratio of Camellia chrysantha extract to sodium DNA is (1.5-2):(0.05-0.1) and the weight ratio of lecithin, cholesterol, ceramide, enzymatically hydrolyzed tea extract and chitosan is (4-5):(0.8-1):(0.05-0.1):(0.05-0.1):(0.4-0.5), the composition has a better effect on promoting collagen production.
[0154] Application Example 1-7 and Comparative Application Example 1-8
[0155] The compositions of Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-8 were added to the emulsion at a concentration of 10 wt% to obtain the emulsions of Application Examples 1-7 and Comparative Application Examples 1-8. The formulations are shown in Table 4.
[0156] The methods for preparing emulsions in Application Examples 1-7 and Comparative Application Examples 1-8 include the following steps:
[0157] (1) Mix the thickener and humectant evenly, add pure water, heat at 75°C water bath temperature for 10 minutes, then homogenize at 4000 rpm for 5 minutes, keep warm for later use, and obtain component A.
[0158] (2) Mix the oil and emulsifier, heat to 75°C, stir to dissolve evenly, keep warm for later use, and obtain component B.
[0159] (3) Heat component A to 75°C, add component B, and homogenize at 4000 rpm for 5 min to obtain emulsion base material.
[0160] (4) Stir the emulsified base material and cool it down to 50°C. Add the anti-aging and repair composition and continue stirring until the material is uniform. Then add the preservative and pH adjuster to adjust the pH to 6.5. Stop stirring and discharge the material to obtain the emulsion.
[0161] Table 3. Emulsion formulations of Application Examples 1-7 and Comparative Application Examples 1-7
[0162]
[0163] Comparative Application Example 9
[0164] In contrast, the emulsion in Application Example 9 did not contain the anti-aging and repair composition, but used an equal amount of deionized water instead of the composition, and the preparation method was the same as in Application Example 1.
[0165] Test Example 3: Human Patch Test of Emulsion
[0166] Thirty volunteers were recruited, 15 men and 15 women, aged 20-50 years. A closed patch test method was used. Equal amounts (0.5g-0.6g) of test samples (emulsions prepared in Application Examples 1-7 and Control Examples 1-9) were placed in a specific patch applicator. The patch was then applied to the volunteers' arms with hypoallergenic adhesive tape, with eight samples applied to each arm. The patches were gently pressed to ensure even application to the skin and left on for 24 hours. After 24 hours, the patch applicator was removed, and skin reactions were observed at 0.5 hours, 24 hours, and 48 hours, and the results were recorded. The severity of adverse skin reactions is shown in Table 4 below.
[0167] Table 4. Adverse skin reaction grades
[0168] Skin reaction rating scale: 0 Negative reaction; 1 Suspicious reaction, only slight erythema; 2 Weak positive reaction (erythema reaction): erythema, infiltration, edema, papules may be present; 3 Strong positive reaction (herpes reaction): erythema, infiltration, edema, papules; reaction may extend beyond the test area; 4 Very strong positive reaction (confluent herpes reaction): obvious erythema, severe infiltration, edema, confluent herpes; reaction extends beyond the test area. surface
[0169] After testing, the lotions provided in Application Examples 1-7 and Comparative Application Examples 1-9 all showed negative reactions after human patch testing, indicating that they are safe and non-irritating to human skin.
[0170] Test Example 4: Test on the anti-wrinkle, firming, soothing, and repairing effects on the human body

[0173] 2. Subject selection
[0174] Inclusion criteria: We are recruiting Asian adult female volunteers aged 45-60 who meet the following conditions:

[0179] Number of participants: A total of 90 qualified volunteers were included and divided into 16 groups of 5 people each using a random number table.
[0180] 3. Sample application method
[0181] Test samples: Emulsions prepared in Application Examples 1-7 and Comparative Application Examples 1-9 (double-blind method numbering), wherein the serum prepared in Comparative Application Example 9 served as the blank control group, and the other application examples and comparative application examples served as the sample groups.
[0182] How to use: After cleansing in the morning and evening, volunteers should take 1mL of the sample and apply it evenly to the entire face, gently massaging until fully absorbed.
[0183] 4. Testing Cycle and Process
[0184] Test periods: 14, 28, and 56 days (D0, D...) 14 D 28 and D 56 ).
[0185] Visit time points: D0 (baseline period), D 14 D 28 and D 56 (At the end of the test) Instrument testing will be conducted.
[0186] Preparation before testing:
[0187] a) After the participants arrived, they used a uniform, non-irritating facial cleanser to clean their faces.
[0188] b) Rest for 30 minutes in a constant temperature and humidity environment (temperature 21±1℃, humidity 50±10%);
[0189] c) Keep your eyes closed and relax during the test to avoid facial expressions and movements that may interfere with the process.
[0190] The facial skin condition was tested on days 14, 28, and 56 after product use to comprehensively evaluate the product's firming and anti-wrinkle effects. Specific experimental parameters and equipment are shown in Table 5, and evaluation parameters are shown in Table 6.
[0191] Result determination: If the R2 / R7 / Q1, Wrinkle Area, and Wrinkle Length values of the test area increase significantly after product use, it indicates that the test sample has a firming and anti-wrinkle effect; conversely, if the parameters do not increase and do not show significant differences, it indicates that the test product does not have a firming and anti-wrinkle effect.
[0192] Table 5 Test Parameters and Equipment
[0193]
[0194] Table 6 Evaluation Parameters
[0195] Evaluation Parameters and Their Meanings: R² Skin Elasticity: The R² value characterizes the improvement of facial skin elasticity; a higher elasticity value indicates better skin elasticity. Wrinkle Area Value: The Wrinkle Area value represents the area of wrinkles; a lower Wrinkle Area value indicates a smaller area of crow's feet, under-eye wrinkles, and nasolabial folds. Wrinkle Length Value: The Wrinkle Length value represents the length of wrinkles; a lower Wrinkle Length value indicates a shorter length of crow's feet, under-eye wrinkles, and nasolabial folds. surface
[0196] The formulas for calculating the evaluation parameters are as follows:
[0197] (T14, 28, 56) R² improvement rate = (R²) T0 -R2 Tn ) / R2 T0 ×100%; where, T n =T 14 T 28 T 56 .
[0198] (T14, 28, 56) Wrinkle Area value improvement rate = (Wrinkle Area) T0 -Wrinkle Area Tn Wrinkle Area T0 ×100%; where, T n =T 14 T 28 T 56 .
[0199] (T14, 28, 56) Wrinkle Length improvement rate = (Wrinkle Length) / (T14, 28, 56) T0 Wrinkle Length Tn Wrinkle Length T0 ×100%; where, T n =T 14 T 28 T 56 The data is shown in Table 7.
[0200] Table 7 Test results of each emulsion group after use
[0201]
[0202] As shown in Table 7, combining the data from Application Example 1 and Comparative Application Examples 1-5, it can be seen that the liposomes whose main components are Camellia chrysantha extract, sodium DNA, ceramide, enzymatically hydrolyzed tea extract, and chitosan can synergistically enhance the anti-wrinkle and elasticity-enhancing effects of the emulsion.
[0203] Combining the data from Application Example 1 and Comparative Application Example 6, it can be seen that the performance of the emulsion is significantly lower than that of Application Example 1. This may be because the anti-aging effect of Calendula extract is not as good as that of Camellia chrysantha extract.
[0204] Combining the data from Application Example 1 and Comparative Application Example 7, it can be seen that the performance of the emulsion is lower than that of Application Example 1. This may be because the enzymatic hydrolysis technology of tea extract precisely decomposes the cell walls of tea leaves, releasing more tea polyphenols, making the active ingredients in the tea extract easier to be absorbed by the skin and exert antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.
[0205] Combining the data from Application Example 1 and Comparative Application Example 8, it can be seen that Comparative Application Example 8 directly mixes the raw materials of the composition without using liposomes as a carrier for the ingredients. Its emulsion performance is significantly lower than that of Application Example 1. This may be because the form of liposomes can promote the transdermal absorption of active ingredients, and the use of coated liposome encapsulation technology to encapsulate active substances can better help the active substances penetrate the skin and achieve significant anti-aging and repair effects.
[0206] In summary, the anti-wrinkle, repairing, and elasticity-enhancing effects of the lotion are mainly based on the addition of an anti-aging and repairing composition. As shown in Figure 1, after using the lotion of Application Example 1 for 56 days, the crow's feet, under-eye wrinkles, and nasolabial folds all showed varying degrees of reduction. This may be because the anti-aging and repairing composition of the present invention can comprehensively improve the skin's aging condition from multiple dimensions, such as promoting collagen synthesis, enhancing skin elasticity, anti-oxidation, and repairing the damaged skin barrier.
[0207] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
