Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of skin care essential oil preparation technology, specifically relating to a children's skin care essential oil and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Children's skin has the following characteristics: 1. Children's skin has a high metabolic rate and is only 1 / 10 the thickness of adult skin. It is relatively delicate and sensitive to environmental factors such as dryness, cold, and humidity, as well as chemical stimuli such as alkaline and acidic substances. Its resistance is also weak. Children's skin is very delicate and requires special care. Improper care can lead to a series of problems and affect children's health. Children's skin loses moisture easily, and the loss of moisture and oil can cause leaks in the skin's natural protective barrier, resulting in a deficiency of both water and oil. This can cause gaps and loosening of the stratum corneum, reducing its ability to resist external stimuli and leading to various skin problems.

[0003] 2. Children's skin accounts for a higher proportion of their body weight, and their skin barrier function is not as perfect as that of adults. Therefore, their skin permeability is higher than that of adults, and their skin absorbs topical skin care products more efficiently.

[0004] 3. Children's skin has not yet fully developed melanosomes and has fewer melanosomes, making them less resistant to ultraviolet rays and more prone to sunburn.

[0005] 4. Because newborns' skin secretes a lot of sebum and their skin is less able to resist external stimuli, insufficient cleaning can easily lead to bacterial infections.

[0006] In general, children's skin has poor resistance to irritants from the external environment and is prone to skin diseases. Therefore, children's skin care products have higher requirements for the safety of raw material sources and should be gentle and free of side effects.

[0007] Many natural skincare products are available on the market now, but besides natural active ingredients, most contain added chemically synthesized products such as surfactants, preservatives, thickeners, moisturizers, and fragrances. These chemically synthesized products are highly irritating to the skin and still pose a threat to children's skin health.

[0008] Essential oils are concentrated substances extracted from plants. When applied to the skin, they offer benefits such as moisturizing, anti-inflammation, anti-oxidation, promoting repair, and regulating oil production. Therefore, using essential oils in children's skincare has great potential. However, because children's skin is delicate, the use of essential oils requires extra caution. High-purity essential oils are highly irritating, and direct application may harm children's skin. While they are usually diluted before use, issues such as high oil content, poor efficacy, and difficulty in meeting the safety requirements for children's skincare (allergic reactions, etc.) still exist. Therefore, selecting essential oil ingredients suitable for children's skincare and optimizing the processing methods are essential.

[0009] Patent CN105616210B discloses a children's sunscreen rose skin care product, which includes a dispersion of N-trans-feruloyl norsylephrine and rose essential oil. In addition to the natural ingredient rose essential oil, it also contains chemically synthesized ingredients such as N-trans-feruloyl norsylephrine, which is highly irritating to children's skin.

[0099] Security inspection The safety of the skin care essential oils obtained in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 4 and 5 was investigated. Specifically, 50 healthy children (aged 3-5 years, half boys and half girls, with similar lifestyles and physical conditions) were randomly divided into 5 groups of 10 children each. During the experiment, their daily routines and diets remained normal. Every evening after bathing, they applied the skin care essential oil to the same area on the inner forearm (2cm × 2cm), using 0.03mL of the oil. The application method was to apply evenly and massage clockwise for 3 minutes. The condition of the treated area was assessed after 3 days, and the results are shown in Table 1.

[0100] Table 1. Safety Assessment

[0101] As shown in Table 1, the skin care essential oils obtained in Examples 1-3 do not cause allergic reactions on children's skin and have good safety.

[0102] Comparative Example 4 omitted tyramine-modified β-cyclodextrin, and Comparative Example 5 directly mixed the individual essential oils without further treatment, resulting in a significant decrease in safety. This indicates that the present invention reduces high-dose contact between essential oil components and the skin through the combined effect of thiol-modified chitosan porous microsphere loading and tyramine-modified β-cyclodextrin coating, thus avoiding irritation to children's skin.

[0103] Skincare effect evaluation The skincare effects of the skincare essential oils obtained in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-4 were investigated (Comparative Example 5 had poor safety and was not investigated for skincare effects). The specific method was as follows: Seventy healthy children (aged 3-5 years, half male and half female, with similar lifestyles and physical conditions) were randomly divided into 7 groups of 10 children each. During the experiment, their daily routines and diets were normal. Every night after bathing, they applied the skincare essential oil to the same area on the inner forearm (2cm × 2cm), using 0.03mL of the oil. The application method was to apply the oil evenly and massage clockwise for 3 minutes. The skin moisture content of the skincare area was measured using a moisture meter at 0h, 2h, 6h, and 12h after skincare. The increase in skin moisture content at 2h, 6h, and 12h was calculated, and the average value was calculated. The results are shown in Table 2.

[0104] The formula for calculating the increase in skin moisture content is: W = (M1 - M0) / M0 × 100%, where W is the increase in skin moisture content, M1 is the skin moisture content after 2 hours, 6 hours or 12 hours of skin care, and M0 is the skin moisture content after 0 hours of skin care.

[0105] Table 2. Evaluation of Skin Care Effects

[0106] As shown in Table 2, the skin care essential oils obtained in Examples 1 to 3 can still maintain a certain increase in skin moisture content after 12 hours of skin care, indicating that they can provide long-lasting moisturization and have good skin care effects.

[0107] Comparative Example 1 omitted ginger oil, Comparative Example 2 omitted black pepper essential oil, Comparative Example 3 omitted the preparation of the loading material, and Comparative Example 4 omitted tyramine-modified β-cyclodextrin. The skin care effect of all of them was significantly worse. Although the increase in skin moisture content was large at the beginning of Comparative Examples 3 and 4, the increase in skin moisture content was significantly smaller after 6 hours of skin care. This shows that the essential oil formulation of the present invention, the loading of thiol-modified chitosan porous microspheres, and the coating of tyramine-modified β-cyclodextrin work together to improve the skin care effect and long-lasting skin care.

[0108] The present invention has been illustrated through the above embodiments, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, that is, it does not mean that the present invention must rely on the above embodiments to be implemented. Those skilled in the art should understand that any improvements to the present invention, equivalent substitutions of individual raw materials in the product of the present invention, addition of auxiliary components, selection of specific methods, etc., all fall within the protection scope and disclosure scope of the present invention.
