Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of cosmetics, and particularly relates to a composition with improved skin color and antioxidant effect, and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the growth of age, the functions of the body begin to decline, and the most intuitive phenomenon is that the skin appears dark and aging. Scientific research shows that the main reasons for these phenomena are three points: first, too much exposure to ultraviolet light or even ionizing radiation, and a large number of free radicals accumulated in the body, while the clearance speed is relatively slow; second, due to irregular work and rest, excessive pressure and low immunity, etc., causing poor circulation and insufficient blood in the body; third, with the increase of age, the metabolism decreases, and a large amount of collagen is lost.

[0003] In order to solve the above skin problems, the existing skin care products mainly use chemical ingredients such as vitamin C, salicylic acid, and vitamin A alcohol, which have a quick effect on improving skin color and antioxidant effect, but are prone to allergic risks; some skin care products use plant extracts as active ingredients, which are natural and mild, but the effect of improving skin color and antioxidant is not obvious. In addition, most of the existing products on the market have the disadvantages of single function, single active ingredient or low bioavailability of active ingredient, which leads to an unobvious improvement effect.

[0004] In summary, in order to better realize product upgrading, developing a composition with quick and efficient improvement of skin color and antioxidant effect and mildness without irritation is one of the common goals pursued in the current cosmetic field. SUMMARY

[0005] In view of the above defects or improvement needs of the prior art, the present application provides a composition with improved skin color and antioxidant effect, and a preparation method and application thereof, which solves the problems of poor improvement of skin color, antioxidant and anti-aging effect and strong irritation of the existing products.

[0115] Effect Test Example 1 Tyrosinase Activity Inhibition Test

[0116] In the process of melanin production, tyrosinase, as the key rate-limiting enzyme, catalyzes the hydroxylation of L-tyrosine to generate dopa, and further oxidizes it to dopaquinone. Dopaquinone spontaneously cyclizes and gradually polymerizes to form melanin through non-enzymatic reactions. The degree of inhibition of the test compound on the catalytic activity of tyrosinase is analyzed by detecting the absorbance change of the reaction system at 475 nm wavelength corresponding to the generation rate of dopaquinone.

[0117] This test example refers to “T / GDCA006-2021 Cosmetic Raw Material Tyrosinase Activity Inhibition Test Method (In Vitro Method)”, detects the inhibition rate of the compositions prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-10 on tyrosinase activity, and thus evaluates the inhibition effect of the compositions on tyrosinase activity.

[0118] The specific test operation is as follows:

[0119] The test substances (compositions prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-10) are respectively diluted with PBS buffer to a sample solution with a concentration of 0.80 mg / mL; four groups of holes are set in a 96-well enzyme plate, 40 μL of PBS buffer is added to the solvent background hole (T a ), 40 μL of L-tyrosine solution and 40 μL of PBS buffer are added to the solvent reaction hole (T b ), 40 μL of sample solution is added to the sample background hole (T c ), and 40 μL of L-tyrosine solution and 40 μL of sample solution are added to the sample reaction hole (T d ), and three duplicate holes are made for each group; each hole is thoroughly mixed, incubated at 37°C for 10 min, and then 20 μL of tyrosinase solution is added to each hole in turn, mixed at 37°C for 5 min, and then placed in an enzyme marker, and the absorbance value is measured at 475 nm wavelength;

[0120] The tyrosinase activity inhibition rate is calculated according to the following formula:

[0121]

[0122] In the formula: A a is the average absorbance of the solvent background hole; A b is the average absorbance of the solvent reaction hole; A c is the absorbance of the sample background hole; and A d is the absorbance of the sample reaction hole.

[0123] The specific results are shown in Table 2.

[0124] Table 2 Tyrosinase inhibition rate data

[0125]

[0126]

[0127] Example 2 Antioxidant effect test

[0128] Free radicals have strong oxidizing properties, can attack biological macromolecules such as lipids, proteins, DNA, etc., cause oxidative damage, lead to cell dysfunction and tissue lesions, and show skin aging, wrinkles, etc. Therefore, the DPPH free radical scavenging capacity is an important indicator for evaluating the anti-aging activity, and by determining the DPPH free radical scavenging rate of the compositions prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-10, the anti-aging efficacy is evaluated.

[0129] The specific test method is as follows:

[0130] The test substance (compositions prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-10) was diluted with anhydrous ethanol to a concentration of 5 mg / mL of the test solution; a DPPH free radical solution with a concentration of 0.2 mmol / L was prepared with anhydrous ethanol; 2 mL of the test solution was taken in a test tube for each test sample group, and 2 mL of the aforementioned prepared DPPH free radical solution was added; 2 mL of anhydrous ethanol was taken in a test tube for the control group, and 2 mL of the aforementioned prepared DPPH free radical solution was added; 2 mL of the test solution was taken in a test tube for the blank group, and 2 mL of anhydrous ethanol was added; each group was mixed well, and after reaction at room temperature for 30 min in the dark, the absorbance value was measured at 517 nm, and the scavenging rate was calculated according to the following formula:

[0131]

[0132] In the formula: A0 is the absorbance value of the blank group; A1 is the absorbance value of the control group; A x is the absorbance value of the test substance group; each group was determined in triplicate, and the data was presented as the average value;

[0133] The test results are shown in Table 3.

[0134] Table 3 Antioxidant test results

[0135]

[0136] Compared with Example 1, Comparative Examples 1-5 do not add one of the extracts of Buxus harlandii, Morus alba, Rubus chingii, 4-butylresorcinol and ascorbic acid tetraisopalmitate respectively, Comparative Example 6 is out of the range of the weight ratio of the extracts of Buxus harlandii, Morus alba, Rubus chingii, 4-butylresorcinol and ascorbic acid tetraisopalmitate, and the preparation process of the extracts in Comparative Examples 7-10 is different from that in Example 1; wherein the eutectic emulsion in Comparative Examples 7-8 uses different molar ratios of hydrogen bond acceptor and hydrogen bond donor respectively; Comparative Example 9 does not use microfluidization for secondary extraction; and Comparative Example 10 uses the traditional preparation method of the extract of Buxus harlandii, i.e., the method of enzymolysis combined with ultrasonic-assisted ethanol extraction.

[0137] As can be seen from the data of tyrosinase inhibition rate and DPPH clearance rate of Example 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-5 in Tables 2-3, the compositions of Example 1-3, which are prepared by using the extracts of Buxus harlandii, Morus alba, Rubus chingii, 4-butylresorcinol and ascorbic acid tetraisopalmitate, have high tyrosinase inhibition rate and DPPH clearance rate, which indicates that the five components have synergistic effect, thereby improving the effects of improving skin color and antioxidant anti-aging.

[0138] As can be seen from the data of Example 1-3 and Comparative Example 6 in Tables 2-3, when the weight ratio of the extracts of Buxus harlandii, Morus alba, Rubus chingii, 4-butylresorcinol and ascorbic acid tetraisopalmitate is (15-18):(12-15):(7-10):(6-9):(8-10), the composition has good effects of improving skin color and antioxidant, and when the weight ratio is 17:14:9:7:9, the effects are best.

[0150] Application Example: An essence with the effects of improving skin color and antioxidation

[0151] The compositions of Examples 1-3 are added into essences respectively to obtain the essences of Application Examples 1-3.

[0152] The essence with the effects of improving skin color and antioxidation comprises the following components in mass percentage: the composition with the effects of improving skin color and antioxidation 3%, polyacryloyldimethyltaurinate 0.7%, xanthan gum 0.1%, cetyl stearyl alcohol 2.5%, carbomer 0.2%, trehalose 0.8%, propylene glycol 2.6%, squalane 1.0%, cyclononamethyl siloxane 2.0%, vitamin C 0.4%, phenoxyethanol 0.5%, essence 0.1%, and deionized water in remainder.

[0153] The preparation method of the essence with the effects of improving skin color and antioxidation specifically comprises the following steps:

[0154] S1, polyacryloyldimethyltaurinate, xanthan gum, trehalose, propylene glycol, squalane and 1 / 2 amount of deionized water are mixed and heated to 80℃, and then homogenized at a speed of 1000 rpm to obtain phase A;

[0155] S2, cetyl stearyl alcohol, carbomer and cyclononamethyl siloxane are mixed and heated to 80℃, and then homogenized at a speed of 1000 rpm to obtain phase B;

[0156] S3, phase A and phase B are mixed and homogenized at a speed of 1000 rpm to obtain a mixed solution;

[0159] Effect Test Example 4: Human trial evaluation test

[0160] This test example evaluates the effects of improving skin color and antioxidation and anti-aging of the essences in Application Examples 1-3 and the blank application example.

[0161] Select 24 subjects (healthy, normal skin, no cosmetic allergy history, age 35-45 years old), the subjects were randomly divided into 4 groups, 6 people in each group, the volunteers used 1.5g of the essence on the face after cleansing and moisturizing in the morning and evening, and then absorbed it by massage, and used it on the whole face once a day in the morning and evening, and returned to visit on the 0th and 28th day; the volunteers did not apply any product after washing their faces with water in the test area on the day of the visit, and sat in an air-conditioned room with a temperature of 21±1℃ and a humidity of 50±10% for 20 minutes; the improvement of facial aging indicators was quantified and photographed using instruments, including Cutometer 2mm MPA 580 to determine the skin plasticity elasticity value (R2), and the improvement before and after use was significantly different, to determine whether the sample has an elasticity effect; Skin-Colorimeter CL400 and Visia 7 (IPP) to determine the skin brightness, and the improvement before and after use was significantly different, to determine whether the sample has an improvement effect on skin brightness;

[0162]

[0163] In the formula: X 使用前 is the data of each indicator before use (0th day) of each group; X 使用后 is the data of each indicator after use (28th day) of each group;

[0164] Wherein, the larger the brightness value, the more the color is biased towards white, and the smaller the brightness value, the more the color is biased towards black; the skin plasticity elasticity value R2 is used to represent the size of the skin's ability to recover after being stretched in the test, the larger R2 is, the younger the skin is and the better the elasticity is; on the contrary, the smaller R2 is, the older the skin is and the worse the elasticity is;

[0165] The results are averaged, as shown in Table 5, the skin plasticity elasticity value and skin brightness of application examples 1-3 are significantly improved compared with the blank application example, which shows that the essence prepared from the composition provided by the technical scheme of the application can significantly improve the elasticity and color of facial skin, and has excellent effects of improving skin color and antioxidant and anti-aging.
