Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to an encapsulated oil-in-water composition and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] With the rise of e-commerce platforms, the displayability of cosmetics has become a significant competitive factor. During live streams or video demonstrations, consumers are drawn to products with unique appearances. Therefore, there is a need to develop products that differentiate themselves from traditional creams, making them more competitive. Research has found that products with unique capsule-like packaging are more popular with consumers. This is partly due to their aesthetic appeal, and partly because the capsules suggest a higher concentration of active ingredients, encouraging consumers to choose more potent products for better results. Based on these factors, there is an urgent need in this field to develop a product with a unique capsule-like packaging.
[0003] Furthermore, in the cosmetics market, consumers are increasingly focusing on products with high efficacy and high content.
[0004] Retinol, widely recognized as a highly effective ingredient, has garnered increasing attention. However, due to its strong irritant properties, poor stability, and photosensitivity, it is difficult to use in formulations. Currently, few products on the market claim to contain retinol, and even those that do typically have a retinol content of only 0.1%-0.2% by weight.
[0005] Therefore, how to achieve a high content of retinol in capsule products is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in this field. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the defects of low retinol content, high irritation and inability to fully exert its efficacy in existing cosmetic formulations, and to provide an encapsulated water-in-oil composition and its preparation method.
[0007] In this invention, retinol is applied to a capsule product, which has good sustained-release properties, enabling the retinol to achieve high content and high efficacy while also maintaining good formulation stability and improving the skin irritation problem caused by retinol.
[0008] The capsules in this invention are crystal clear, and both the hydrogel and oleogel have a transparent appearance, which is different from conventional semi-transparent or opaque capsules, increasing the product's aesthetics and improving the smoothness of the skin. Furthermore, in this invention, the oil phase component and the water phase component are dissolved by heating, and the oil phase component is added to the cooled water phase component at a high temperature, so there is no need to precisely control the temperature of the water phase or the oil phase to form a better appearance.
[0009] This invention provides an encapsulated oil-in-water composition, which, by weight percentage, comprises the following components:
[0010] 0.1-1% retinol;
[0011] 1-5% of an oil phase thickener, wherein the oil phase thickener is selected from one or more of dextrin palmitate, castor oil / IPDI copolymer, HDI / trimethylolhexyl lactone crosspolymer, glyceryl behenate, hydrogenated (styrene / butadiene) copolymer, and dibutyllauroyl glutamine;
[0012] 10%-20% oil components, including caprylic / capric triglycerides;
[0013] 0.1%-5% rheology modifier;
[0014] 5-20% humectant;
[0015] The remainder is water.
[0016] In this invention, the chemical formula of the retinol is C 20 H 30 O is one of the forms of vitamin A, CAS Registry Number 68-26-8.

[0104] Commercially available product: HBN Retinol Firming and Revitalizing Night Cream. Purchased from Shenzhen Hujia Technology Co., Ltd., product model number: Yue G Zhuangwang Bei Zi 2023229016.
[0105] Compared with Comparative Example 2, the encapsulated face creams in Examples 1-5 of the present invention have the following advantages:
[0106] (1) Appearance advantages: The capsules of the present invention are more crystal clear, and both hydrogel and oleogel have a transparent appearance, while HBN products present semi-transparent and opaque capsules.
[0107] (2) Advantages of active substances: The retinol content in this invention is above trace (≥0.1%), while the retinol content in HBN products is below trace (not exceeding 0.1%).
[0108] Example 1: Stability Test
[0109] 1) The retinol face cream with hydrogel encapsulated in oleogel prepared in Example 3 and the non-encapsulated face cream prepared in Comparative Example 1 were stored in constant temperature incubators at different temperatures (-18℃, -7℃, 4℃, 25℃, 37℃, 45℃, 50℃) and their appearance changes were observed after three months.
[0110] 2) The retinol face cream with hydrogel encapsulating oleogel prepared in Example 3 and the non-encapsulated face cream prepared in Comparative Example 1 were placed in a circulation chamber (-18 to 45°C) and tested for three cycles (6 days) to observe their appearance changes.
[0111] The test results of the retinol face cream containing hydrogel-encapsulated oleogel prepared in Example 3 are as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the non-encapsulated face cream prepared in Comparative Example 1 is as follows: Figure 3 As shown. Figure 2 , Figure 3 The groups marked -18℃, -7℃, 4℃, 25℃, 37℃, 45℃, and 50℃ respectively indicate that the items were stored at that temperature for three months. The group marked "C" indicates that the items were tested for three cycles (6 days) in a cyclic chamber (-18 to 45℃).

The following retinol creams were prepared: the hydrogel-encapsulated oil gel retinol cream prepared in Example 3; the hydrogel-encapsulated oil gel retinol cream prepared in Example 5; a commercially available sample (“HBN Retinol Firming and Revitalizing Night Cream” from Comparative Example 2); and the non-encapsulated retinol cream prepared in Comparative Example 1. The control group served as a blank control, receiving no treatment. The patch containing the test substance was applied to the flexor surface of the subject's forearm, and the palm was gently pressed to ensure even application to the skin. Continue for 24 hours; 30 min, 24 h, and 48 h after removing the test sample from the apparatus, according to the table. 3. Observe the skin irritation and sensitization, and record the observation results.
