Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of cosmetic technology, specifically to an ultrafine emulsified spray cream containing oryzanol and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Oryzanol is a natural active ingredient derived from rice, composed mainly of ferulic acid esters of cycloarpine and sterols, with cycloarpine ferulic acid esters comprising approximately 80%. It possesses excellent anti-inflammatory, UV absorption, whitening, and antioxidant properties, and has wide applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries. For example, Chinese invention patent CN105997927A provides a formulation and preparation process for oryzanol nanocrystalline capsules; Chinese invention patent CN111529500A provides a pharmaceutical preparation for improving the solubility of oryzanol and its preparation method.

[0003] However, the application and research of oryzanol in the skincare industry are still relatively limited. Among the many dosage forms of skincare products, spray formulations are widely used in the market due to their convenience and low risk of contamination. However, spray formulations generally require low product viscosity, which greatly limits the formulation options. The oil content cannot usually be increased significantly, especially for poorly soluble active ingredients like oryzanol, making it difficult to meet its dissolution requirements. Furthermore, oryzanol emulsions prepared using traditional emulsification techniques have larger particle sizes, making it difficult to penetrate the stratum corneum of the skin, resulting in low bioavailability and insufficient efficacy.
