Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of cosmetics, specifically relating to a gel emulsion spray and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing demand for personal care products, lotion sprays have gained a significant position in the cosmetics and skincare market due to their ease of use and portability. A lotion spray is a product that uses a specific spray device to atomize lotion into fine mist particles, which can be evenly distributed on the skin surface, providing moisturizing and repairing effects.
[0003] Currently, there are many types of lotion spray products on the market, among which moisturizing and repairing lotion sprays are quite common. For example, CN109528579A discloses a moisturizing and repairing lotion spray and its preparation method. This lotion spray is composed of emulsifiers, emollients, preservatives, functional additives, anti-inflammatory agents, moisturizers, chelating agents, thickeners, pH adjusters, and fragrances, and has good moisturizing and repairing effects. CN109223669A provides a spray-type moisturizing body lotion. By adding a flu modifier and optimizing its content, it meets the spray effect required for spray-type body lotions, enabling the body lotion to be sprayed evenly and achieve a long-lasting refreshing and moisturizing effect.
[0004] In the formulation design of emulsion sprays, the selection and use of thickeners have a significant impact on product performance. CN114632028A discloses a lifting and firming face cream that uses a thickener system composed of carbomer, sodium polyacrylate grafted starch, and xanthan gum, giving the product good moisturizing ability and lifting and firming effects. CN114668688A, on the other hand, uses ammonium acryloyl dimethyl taurate / VP copolymer as a thickener, enabling the BB cream to achieve a thickening effect while maintaining a refreshing feel.
[0005] Emulsifiers also play a crucial role in emulsion sprays, enabling the aqueous and oil phases to form a stable emulsion system. CN112274448A discloses a spray foundation in which, by adjusting the ratio of the aqueous and oil phases and adding an appropriate emulsifier, the spray foundation achieves both the lightweight, easy-to-apply, and non-sticky effects of a liquid foundation, as well as moisturizing and concealing effects.
[0006] However, existing emulsion spray products still have some technical problems. Traditional emulsion sprays, in order to achieve a good atomization effect, typically control the product viscosity during formulation design. This leads to poor stability of the emulsion system, making it prone to layering and demulsification. At the same time, low-viscosity emulsion sprays often produce less than ideal atomization during use, failing to form uniform and fine mist particles, affecting the user experience and efficacy of the product. Therefore, existing emulsion spray formulations struggle to simultaneously achieve stability and good spray performance, particularly lacking systematic optimization in the proportions of thickeners, emulsifiers, water-based solvents, and oil-based solvents.
[0007] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a gel emulsion spray. By optimizing the ratio and preparation process of water-based thickeners, emulsifiers, pH adjusters, active ingredients, humectants, water-based solvents, and oil-based solvents, the technical problems of poor stability and poor atomization effect of traditional emulsion sprays can be solved, thereby improving the product's performance and user experience.

Detailed Implementation
[0208] The present invention is further illustrated below by way of embodiments, but the invention is not limited to the scope of the embodiments described herein. Experimental methods in the following embodiments that do not specify specific conditions were performed according to conventional methods and conditions, or as selected according to the product instructions.
[0209] Example 1
[0210] The specific steps of the preparation method are as follows:
[0211] Raw material preparation:
[0212] The aqueous thickener is selected from 0.4 g of acrylate / sorbitol polyether-25 methacrylate copolymer, 0.2 g of acrylate / C10-30 alkanol acrylate crosspolymer, 5 g of propylene glycol as aqueous solvent, 2 g of sorbitol polyether-30 tetraoleate as emulsifier, 0.3 g of tromethamine as pH adjuster, 3 g of vitamin C derivative as active ingredient, 5 g of glycerin as humectant, 5 g of isododecane as oil solvent, and 79.1 g of purified water.
[0213] Preparation steps:
[0214] S1: Aqueous phase preparation: The aqueous thickener acrylate / behenol polyether-25 methacrylate copolymer and acrylate / C10-30 alkanol acrylate crosspolymer were slowly added to 6 g of purified water and stirred at room temperature until completely dissolved to form a uniform colloidal solution.
[0215] S2: Dissolving the active ingredient: Add the active ingredient, vitamin C derivative, and the aqueous solvent, propylene glycol, to 40 g of purified water and stir until completely dissolved; then add S2 to S1.
[0216] S3: Oil phase preparation: The emulsifier sorbitol polyether-30 tetraoleate and the oily solvent isododecane are mixed and stirred at 40°C for 10 minutes to form a uniform oil phase;
[0217] S4: Emulsification process: Under continuous stirring, the oil phase is slowly added to the aqueous phase, the stirring speed is controlled at 6000 rpm, and the emulsification time is 5 minutes to form an emulsion;
[0218] S5: Add excipients: Add the moisturizing agent glycerin to the lotion and continue stirring for 10 minutes to mix thoroughly;
[0219] S6: pH adjustment: Add tromethorphan to adjust the pH to 5.5;
[0220] S7: Make up the volume with water: Add 33.1 g of purified water and stir well;
[0221] S8: Filtration and Filling: Filter the prepared gel emulsion spray through a 300 mesh filter cloth, and then fill it into a spray bottle and seal it for storage.
[0222] Example 2
[0223] Following the steps and conditions of Example 1, the aqueous thickeners in step S1, namely acrylate / behenol polyether-25 methacrylate copolymer and acrylate / C10-30 alkanol acrylate crosslinker, were replaced with acrylate / C10-30 alkanol acrylate crosslinker at a dosage of 0.5 g. The acrylate / C10-30 alkanol acrylate crosslinker exhibits excellent thickening properties, providing good viscosity at lower dosages, resulting in finer mist particles during spraying.
[0224] Example 3
[0225] Following the steps and conditions of Example 1, the aqueous solvent propylene glycol in step S2 was replaced with 1,3-butanediol, and the amount used was 3 g. 1,3-Butanediol not only has good solubility but also provides additional moisturizing effects, making the skin feel more comfortable after using the product.
[0226] Example 4
[0227] Following the steps and conditions of Example 1, the emulsifier sorbitan polyether-30 tetraoleate in step S3 was replaced with sorbitan sesquioleate at a dosage of 3g. This emulsifier provides a more stable emulsification effect, enabling the product to maintain good stability under different temperature conditions.
[0228] Example 5
[0229] Following the steps and conditions of Example 1, the pH adjuster tromethamine in step S6 was replaced with sodium citrate at a dosage of 0.2 g. Sodium citrate, as a mild pH adjuster, can maintain the product's pH value between 5.0 and 5.5, which is closer to the physiological pH value of the skin.
[0230] Example 6
[0231] Following the steps and conditions of Example 1, the active ingredient, vitamin C derivative, in step S2 was replaced with sodium hyaluronate at a dosage of 1 g. Sodium hyaluronate has excellent moisturizing effects and biocompatibility, and can form a moisturizing film on the skin surface to lock in moisture for a long time.
[0232] Example 7
[0233] Following the steps and conditions of Example 1, the moisturizing agent glycerin in step S5 was replaced with a mixture of propylene glycol and glycerin in a ratio of 1:2, with a total amount of 6 g. This mixed moisturizer provides multi-layered moisturizing effects, offering both immediate and long-lasting hydration.
[0234] Example 8
[0235] Following the steps and conditions of Example 1, the oily solvent isododecane in step S3 was replaced with squalane, at a dosage of 3g. Squalane has good skin affinity, can be rapidly absorbed by the skin, and does not leave a greasy feeling.
[0236] Example 1-8 Finished Product Testing:
[0237] The prepared gel-emulsion spray product is semi-transparent milky white in appearance. When sprayed, it forms fine and uniform mist particles that quickly form a thin gel film on the skin. The product has a pH value of 5.5, which is close to the physiological pH value of the skin, and will not irritate the skin during use. The product has a good moisturizing effect, reducing transepidermal water loss by more than 35% after use, and this effect lasts for more than 8 hours. The product has good stability, showing no separation or discoloration when stored within the range of 4-45℃ for 3 months.
[0238] Moisturizing test method:

[0240] Test method: The test area is 3cm×3cm. The test sample is applied once at a dosage of (2.0±0.1)mg / cm2. The sample is evenly applied to the test area using a latex finger cot.
[0241] Before use (T0h), 1 hour after use (T1h), and 2 hours after use (T2h), the skin moisture content of the stratum corneum was measured using a Corneometer CM825. The higher the Corneometer value, the higher the skin moisture content of the stratum corneum.
[0242] Example 9
[0243] The specific steps of the preparation method are as follows:
[0244] Step 1: Prepare Phase A
[0245] Take 0.6 g of water-based thickener acrylate / sorbitol polyether-25 methacrylate copolymer and 2.0 g of emulsifier sorbitol polyether-30 tetraoleate. Mix the two evenly, control the stirring speed at 500-800 rpm, stir for 10 minutes, and keep the temperature at 25-30℃ to obtain a uniform A-phase mixture.
[0246] Step 2: Preparation of Phase B
[0247] Dissolve 0.1 g of pH adjuster in 10 g of purified water at a temperature of 20-25°C and a stirring speed of 300-500 rpm. After complete dissolution, slowly add the solution to phase A obtained in step one, increasing the stirring speed to 600-1000 rpm and stirring for 5-10 minutes until homogeneous to obtain phase B. Sodium hydroxide is preferred as the pH adjuster to maintain the final product's pH between 5.5 and 7.5.
[0248] Step 3: Preparation of C phase
[0249] Take 20 g of aqueous solvent, 5 g of active ingredient, 10 g of humectant, and 40 g of purified water, and add them sequentially to a reaction vessel. Maintain a stirring speed of 400-700 rpm and a temperature of 25-30℃ for 5-10 minutes until all components are fully mixed and homogeneous, yielding phase C. Butylene glycol is preferred as the aqueous solvent; vitamin C is preferred as the active ingredient; and glycerin is preferred as the humectant.
[0250] Step 4: Mixing to prepare the D phase
[0251] Slowly pour the C phase obtained in step 3 into the B phase obtained in step 2, control the stirring speed at 800-1200 rpm, maintain the temperature at 25-30℃, and stir for 5-10 minutes until the mixture is homogeneous to obtain the D phase.
[0252] Step 5: Add oily solvents to prepare the inner material
[0253] Take 5 g of oily solvent and slowly add it to the D phase obtained in step four. Maintain a stirring speed of 1000-1500 rpm and a temperature of 25-30℃ for 5-10 minutes until the mixture is homogeneous, thus obtaining the inner material. Sunflower seed oil is the preferred oily solvent.
