Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of cosmetics, specifically a cold cream with high barrier repair effect and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Cold cream originated in ancient Greece and Rome. Traditional cold creams were mostly water-in-oil emulsions, producing a cooling sensation upon application due to the burst of water, hence the name. However, traditional cold creams often use a saponification system of fatty acids and alkalis, resulting in a greasy feel, strong occlusive properties, and a tendency to clog pores and cause breakouts, leading to a poor skin experience. Currently, some non-traditional cold creams exist on the market, using a water-in-oil system, but these suffer from a rough appearance and poor stability. Other cold creams employ low-temperature ingredient technology, such as adding cooling agents, which, while providing a cooling sensation, may also cause irritation. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a functional cold cream that offers a pleasant appearance and feel, is gentle and non-irritating, and possesses good stability.
[0003] Skin lipids contain approximately 26% wax esters. Wax esters are more effective than other lipids in resisting skin damage caused by oxidants and improving the skin's water retention function. Plant-based wax esters are rich in unsaponifiables, sterols, and fatty acids, and when applied to cosmetics, they can achieve similar effects, providing enhanced skin benefits. Cold curtain tunnel technology is a cooling process that achieves instantaneous and uniform cooling. Tunnel air curtains are formed at the ends of each internal section, reducing heat exchange with the external airflow and creating a negative pressure zone inside. This forms a circulating gas flow, maintaining a certain humidity and temperature within the cavity. It is primarily used in the food industry and is currently not applied in skin creams. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the aforementioned problems in existing technologies, the present invention aims to design and provide a technical solution for a cold cream with high barrier repair efficacy and its preparation method. It innovatively applies cold tunnel technology to the preparation of the cold cream, allowing the material to rapidly crystallize after passing through the cold tunnel. Combined with a unique plant wax ester technology, it achieves a balance point between solid and liquid oils, resulting in a lightweight, melting feel and a premium texture. It precisely locks in oil with wax esters, forming a lightweight, breathable, intelligent protective film, providing a pleasant, lightweight, melting skin experience. It exhibits good stability, locks in the freshness of active ingredients, and demonstrates significant soothing and redness-reducing effects in extreme environments. It also provides highly effective skin barrier repair, significantly enhances skin defense, and has anti-wrinkle effects. Suitable for sensitive skin, it can promote post-medical aesthetic repair.

[0023] Comparative Example 1: Compared with Example 1, this comparative example is the same as Example 1 except that the material was not treated with cold curtain tunnel technology after discharge.
[0024] Comparative Example 2: Compared with Example 1, the plant wax ester combination in this comparative example consists of 8.8 parts of plant cold esters, 5.2 parts of liquid plant oils, and 0.5 parts of plant waxes. Specifically, the proportions are: 4 parts of shea butter, 1 part of guacamole, 2.8 parts of star palm kernel oil, 1 part of sagebrush butter, 3 parts of baccharis fruit oil, 1 part of star palm fruit oil, 1 part of camellia seed oil, 0.2 parts of bridge fruit oil, 0.2 parts of carnauba wax, 0.1 parts of wild lacquer fruit wax, and 0.2 parts of green chaste tree flower wax. The remaining raw materials and their amounts are the same as in Example 1. The mixture is balanced with water to 100 parts, and the preparation method is the same as in Example 1.
[0025] The following test results and experimental data further demonstrate the beneficial effects of the present invention.
[0026] Experiment 1: Hardness Test The test was conducted at 25℃, and the hardness of the prepared cold cream was measured using a viscometer (BROOKFIELD DV2TRVTJ0). The hardness test results are shown in Table 2.
[0027] Table 2 Hardness Test Results As shown in Table 2, the cold creams in Examples 1-5 treated with the cold curtain tunnel technology have a significantly higher hardness than the untreated Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 with different wax ester ratios. This is because the rapid cooling process and unique plant wax ester technology allow the plant-based cooling oils, liquid plant fats, and plant waxes to reach a balanced critical point, resulting in a solid appearance. Without the rapid cooling process or with an unsuitable wax ester ratio, the cold cream cannot achieve sufficient hardness. Therefore, the cold curtain tunnel technology combined with the unique plant wax ester formulation method provided by this invention allows the cream to exhibit a more solid appearance and texture.
[0028] Experiment 2: Stability Test The above-described examples and comparative examples were placed under different environmental conditions for different periods of time: one month at -18℃, 5℃, 25℃, 40℃, 48℃, and three months under light conditions. The stability of the samples was then tested, and the results were observed at 4 weeks and 12 weeks. The test results are shown in Table 3.
[0029] Table 3 Stability Test Results As shown in Table 3, the ointments of Examples 1-5 have better stability. Comparative Examples 1 and 2 exhibited instability, such as coarsening at low temperatures and oiliness at high temperatures. Figure 2It is evident that the cold cream prepared using the cold curtain tunneling technology provided by this invention, combined with a unique wax ester ratio, exhibits uniform particle size with minimal variation under both high and low temperature conditions, resulting in a more stable formulation structure. This avoids particle size variations caused by poor stability of the cold cream, which could lead to the precipitation of some oil-soluble active ingredients within the emulsion particles, hindering their absorption by the skin and affecting product efficacy. Therefore, the cold cream prepared using the cold curtain tunneling technology combined with a unique wax ester ratio provided by this invention possesses excellent stability, instantly locking in freshness and allowing the unsaponifiables, sterols, and fatty acids abundant in plant wax esters to maintain their efficacy.
[0030] Experiment 3: Skin Feel Evaluation Test Ten professional team members used the prepared Examples 1-5, Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 to evaluate the melting sensation, penetration sensation, film-forming sensation and stickiness of the skin feel after application and absorption. The scores ranged from 1 to 9 points. The higher the score, the stronger the melting sensation, penetration sensation, film-forming sensation and stickiness. The mean data of the skin feel evaluation results are shown in Table 4.
[0031] Table 4. Results of Skin Feel Evaluation Test As shown in Table 4, compared to the comparative examples, Examples 1-5 exhibited better melting and penetration sensations, a thin and breathable film texture, and lower greasiness. Therefore, the cold curtain tunnel technology combined with the wax ester formulation delivers a three-stage skin experience: from cream to oil to film. The initial stage features a firm cream that melts into a smooth, silky texture upon application; the middle stage, upon contact with the skin, gradually releases elastic oils through massage with body temperature, penetrating layer by layer; and the final stage, after complete absorption, transforms into a breathable film, providing high hydration while enhancing skin's breathability. Due to the rapid cooling process, precise and quick solidification is achieved, locking in oil with wax esters and enhancing their mutual fusion effect. This allows for oil repair while simultaneously achieving skin oil balance. Therefore, the cold cream provided by this invention, with its unique combination of plant-based wax esters, melts upon contact with the skin and automatically adjusts according to environmental changes. It is breathable at high temperatures and locks in moisture at low temperatures. Combined with the cold curtain tunnel technology, it precisely locks in oil with wax esters, achieving skin oil balance and forming a thin, breathable, intelligent protective film, resulting in a superior, thin, melting skin experience.
[0032] Experiment 4: Stimulation Test Thirty-two volunteers, aged 18-60 years, were selected. Irritation tests were conducted according to the "Cosmetic Safety Technical Specifications 2015 Edition" – Human Skin Patch Test. Samples from Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-2 were added to a patch applicator. The applicator containing the sample was then applied to the back of the subject using non-irritating adhesive tape. Gently pressing with the palm of the hand ensured even application to the skin. After 24 hours, the patch applicator was removed, and any remaining sample was gently wiped away with a moistened cotton ball. Skin reactions were observed 0.5 hours after the indentation disappeared, and again at 24 and 48 hours after patch removal. Reaction results were recorded according to a grading standard. If fewer than five people experienced Grade 1 adverse skin reactions and no Grade 2-4 adverse skin reactions were observed, the product was considered to have no adverse effects on humans. Test results are shown in Table 5.
[0033] Table 5 Results of the Stimulation Test As shown in Table 5, the patch test results showed that only a few Grade 1 adverse reactions occurred in Example 2 and Comparative Example 1, but there were fewer than 5 people and no Grade 2 to 4 skin adverse reactions. Therefore, it can be determined that there are no adverse reactions in humans. Thus, the face creams of the examples and comparative examples all showed no adverse reactions in humans, indicating that the cold cream provided by the present invention has high safety and is gentle and non-irritating.
[0034] Experiment 5: Performance Testing in Extreme Environments Thirty-five healthy Chinese subjects aged 18-60 years with dry, rough skin, facial redness, erythema, and symptoms such as burning, stinging, itching, and tightness, a Bauman Skin Type Questionnaire (Sensitive Skin) score ≥30, and who used the test product once, were placed in a low-temperature environment (-8℃±2℃) for 30 minutes. Researchers randomly selected one side of each subject as the experimental group, using the test product (prepared in Example 1), while the other side served as the control group, without any product. Skin measurements were taken before, immediately after, and 30 minutes after the low-temperature environment. The stratum corneum moisture content was measured using a Corneometer, transepidermal water loss (TEWL) was measured using a Tewameter™ Hex probe, and the Erythema Index (EI) was measured using a Mexameter MX 18 probe. Facial images were captured using VISA-CR. Descriptive statistics were performed on each measurement using Excel, and data were analyzed using SPSS software. A significance level of P < 0.05 was considered. The test results are shown in Table 6.
[0035] Table 6 Results of Extreme Environment Efficacy Tests As shown in Table 6, compared with before the low temperature, the water content of the stratum corneum on the cheeks increased significantly by 34.84% immediately after product application and by 44.35% after 30 minutes of low temperature. Furthermore, the experimental group showed a significantly better trend in stratum corneum water content compared to the control group. Compared with before the low temperature, the transepidermal water loss rate of the cheek skin decreased significantly by 10.01% immediately after product application and by 22.20% after 30 minutes of low temperature. The experimental group also showed a lower trend in transepidermal water loss rate compared to the control group. Compared with before the low temperature, the erythema index (EI) value decreased significantly by 6.92% immediately after product application and by 13.90% after 30 minutes of low temperature. The experimental group also showed a significantly lower trend in EI value compared to the control group. Simultaneously, from... Figure 2 It can be clearly seen that the skin's moisture content remains at a high level even in low-temperature environments, demonstrating that using the face cream of this invention can enhance the skin's resistance to cold environments. Therefore, the cold cream provided by this invention has high soothing, redness-reducing, repairing, and moisturizing effects in extremely cold environments, exhibiting highly effective skin barrier repair and significantly improving skin's defense capabilities. The products prepared in Examples 2-5 of this invention, used as test products, also achieve the beneficial effects described in this invention.
[0036] Experiment 6: Post-medical aesthetic treatment efficacy test Thirty-one healthy Chinese subjects aged 18-60 years with dry, rough skin, facial redness, erythema, and symptoms such as burning, stinging, itching, and tightness, a Bauman Skin Type Questionnaire (Sensitive Skin) score ≥30, and who underwent phototherapy, were selected. After the subjects underwent phototherapy, researchers randomly selected one side of the subject's face as the experimental group and the other side as the control group. The experimental group used the cold cream provided by this invention (the product prepared in Example 1), while the control group did not use the product. The subjects used the product continuously for one week. During the test, they could not use cosmetics or drugs with similar effects to the product. Skin was tested before the medical treatment (BL), after the medical treatment (BL'), one day after using the product (D1), three days after using the product (D3), and one week after using the product (W1). The skin stratum corneum moisture content was measured using a Corneometer, transepidermal water loss (TEWL) was measured using a Tewameter™ Hex probe, and the skin erythema index (EI) value was measured using a Mexameter MX 18 probe for skin erythema and hemoglobin testing. Facial images were captured using a VISA-CR. Descriptive statistics for each measurement value were performed using Excel. Data were analyzed using SPSS software. The significance level was P < 0.05. The test results are shown in Table 7.
[0037] Table 7 Results of efficacy tests after cosmetic surgery Table 7 shows that the stratum corneum moisture content significantly increased after the cosmetic procedure compared to before. However, there was no significant difference in the trend of stratum corneum moisture content change between the experimental group and the control group. Compared to after the cosmetic procedure, the trend of stratum corneum moisture content change was significant in the experimental group after using the test product for 1 day, 3 days, and 1 week. The transdermal water loss rate test results show that compared to after the cosmetic procedure, the transdermal water loss rate of the experimental group decreased significantly by 8.11% after 1 day, 15.81% after 3 days, and 22.27% after 1 week. Furthermore, the trend of transdermal water loss rate change was significantly better in the experimental group than in the control group. Regarding the skin erythema index, compared to after the cosmetic procedure, the EI value decreased significantly by 6.98%, 11.89%, and 18.38% after 1 day, 3 days, and 1 week, respectively. The trend of EI value change was significantly better in the experimental group than in the control group. Additionally, no adverse reactions were observed when using the cold cream after the cosmetic procedure, indicating that the cold cream provided by this invention can be used after the cosmetic procedure. Figure 3 It is evident that after one week of use, the subjects' skin was effectively soothed, indicating that the cold cream prepared according to this invention can promote post-medical aesthetic repair and has moisturizing, repairing, and soothing effects. The products prepared in Examples 2-5 of this invention, used as test products, also achieved the beneficial effects described in this invention.
[0038] Experiment 7: Skincare Efficacy Test Thirty-four healthy Chinese subjects aged 30-65 years were selected. They had facial redness and erythema, and were prone to burning, stinging, itching, and tightness. Their wrinkle grades were 2-4, their lactic acid stinging test was positive, and their total score was ≥3. They considered their facial skin to be dry, rough, and with fine lines. After cleansing in the morning and evening, and following their basic skincare routine, they applied an appropriate amount of the cold cream from Example 1 evenly to their facial skin and gently pressed it into absorption. During the test, they did not use other skincare products with similar effects, avoided prolonged outdoor activities, and paid attention to sun protection. The volunteers' faces were selected as the test sites.
