Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of daily necessities technology, specifically relating to a makeup remover composition containing bio-based raw material - surfactant supramolecular aggregates. Background Technology
[0002] In the modern beauty and skincare industry, makeup removers play a crucial role. With the increasing popularity of makeup and the growing pursuit of a more refined look, various makeup products such as foundation, eyeshadow, lipstick, and mascara are widely used. However, the powders, oils, and film-forming agents in these makeup products are difficult for the skin to absorb and tend to accumulate on the face. If makeup is not removed promptly and thoroughly, it can easily lead to skin problems such as pigmentation, dull skin tone, acne, and pimples, seriously affecting the health and appearance of the skin. Therefore, choosing a suitable makeup remover has become a key step in maintaining healthy skin. Makeup removers not only bear the responsibility of removing facial makeup but also effectively remove sweat, sebum, and airborne dirt adhering to the skin, offering a more powerful cleansing effect than ordinary facial cleansers. Especially for waterproof makeup, ordinary facial cleansers are often ineffective, further highlighting the importance of makeup removers.
[0003] Common makeup removers can be broadly categorized into three systems: water-based, oil-based, and emulsified. Water-based removers primarily rely on surfactants for cleansing, but this method is often incomplete and requires further wiping with cotton pads, sometimes necessitating a second cleanse. This approach increases the risk of skin damage due to over-cleansing. Oil-based removers achieve their cleansing effect through the mutual solubility of oils and surfactants, but they tend to feel heavy, and long-term use without thorough cleansing can lead to acne. Emulsified removers consist of water, oils, and surfactants forming a lotion; the oils remove makeup, while the water provides hydration, but their cleansing power is relatively limited. Furthermore, the safety of makeup remover ingredients remains a major concern for consumers and a significant challenge for the industry. From preservatives to fragrances, from oils to surfactants, many ingredients can pose a threat to skin health. For example, surfactants in some makeup removers not only affect the survival and reproduction of aquatic organisms and disrupt the aquatic ecological balance, but also have certain impacts on human health. This is mainly because human skin has gaps in its structure, and the amphiphilic structure of surfactants has a certain degree of permeability. Inevitably, some surfactants will not be washed away by water, thus adsorbing and penetrating into the stratum corneum, causing surfactant residue on the skin. Over time, this can have negative effects on the stratum corneum and even the deeper layers of the skin. Studies have found that the more surfactants are exposed, the more they bind to proteins on the skin, and the faster the penetration process. It has been proven that this reduces the skin's water-binding capacity, leading to dry skin, inflammation, functional impairment from repeated contact, and acne. These not only put pressure on the environment but also run counter to the concept of sustainable development.
[0004] Therefore, how to provide a makeup remover that has multiple functions such as cleansing, gentle exfoliation, and makeup removal, is made from natural sources, is gentle on the skin, and is easy to prepare, while achieving a perfect cleansing effect at the same time as makeup removal, has become an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0165] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be understood that the following embodiments are merely illustrative and explanatory of the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention. All technologies implemented based on the above content of the present invention are covered within the scope of protection intended by the present invention.
[0166] Unless otherwise stated, the raw materials and reagents used in the following examples are commercially available products or can be prepared by known methods.
[0167] Unless otherwise specified, the commercially available natural cellulose mentioned in the following examples refers to natural cellulose purchased from Germany JRS, model VITACEL CS 70G, with a particle size of 70μm.
[0168] Preparation Example 1
[0169] The micro / nano-sized natural polymer hydrogel was prepared using an ionic liquid method. The preparation process involved dissolution, homogenization, and regeneration to obtain a micro / nano-sized natural polymer hydrogel with an 8% solid content and a particle size of 40 μm. The specific preparation method is as follows:
[0170] 12g of wood pulp was premixed with the ionic liquid AMIMCl. The wood pulp was dried in an oven at 80℃ for at least 1 hour beforehand. The mass of AMIMCl was 2388g. The premixed material was heated to 80℃ and stirred under vacuum for 2 hours. After complete dissolution, the solution was slowly poured into warm water at 40±5℃ to form natural cellulose gum (CMG), i.e., micro-nano natural polymer material. The gel was washed 6-8 times with a solution such as water, ethanol, DMF, or NaOH aqueous solution to remove residual AMIMCl. The washed natural cellulose gum was redispersed in pure water at a water-to-natural cellulose gel mass ratio of 9:1. The gel was then pulverized and further pulverized to a particle size of 40μm using a colloid mill or high-pressure homogenizer. The concentration was increased until the solid content of CMG was 8%. After autoclaving, the CMG emulsion was obtained, which is the micro-nano natural polymer material hydrogel.
[0171] Preparation Example 2
[0172] The micro-nano natural polymer hydrogel was prepared by ionic liquid method through dissolution, homogenization and regeneration to obtain a micro-nano natural polymer hydrogel with 8% solid content and 80μm particle size. The specific preparation method is basically the same as that in Preparation Example 1, except that the particle size after pulverization is 80μm.
[0173] Test Example 1
[0174] The micro / nano-sized natural polymer hydrogels prepared in Preparation Examples 1 and 2 were mixed with four different surfactants: sorbitan polyether-30 tetraoleate, PEG-20 glycerol triisostearate, cocoyl glucoside, and polyglycerol-4 isostearate, with a mass ratio of 1:1 between the micro / nano-sized natural polymer hydrogel and the surfactant. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis was performed, and the results are as follows: Figure 1-2 .
[0175] The above four different surfactants were then mixed with aqueous solutions of different celluloses (e.g., commercially available natural cellulose 70μm, MCC, with a solid content of 8% in the aqueous solutions of different celluloses) and subjected to Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis. The results are as follows: Figure 3-4 .
[0176] from Figure 1 It can be seen that the hydroxyl peak shifted from 3372 to 3357, 3357, 3334, and 3345, respectively. Figure 2 The shift of the hydroxyl peak from 3372 to 3353, 3355, 3338, and 3345 indicates an interaction between the surfactant and the micro / nano-sized natural polymer hydrogel, leading to the red shift of the hydroxyl peak. This suggests that the hydroxyl groups are participating in the formation of hydrogen bonds. Figure 3 and Figure 4 The hydroxyl peak (3372) hardly moved, indicating that cellulose from other sources does not interact with surfactants.

[0199] Test Example 2
[0200] The makeup removal compositions of Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-4 were tested as follows:
[0201] (1) Stability test: The makeup remover compositions prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-4 were used as products for stability testing. The test method was to put the product (contents) into several 30ML PE bags, label them with the product name, formula number, test conditions and other information, and test the stability of the products at -18℃, 26℃ and 50℃ respectively. After 24h, 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 8 weeks and 12 weeks, the products were taken out and allowed to return to room temperature to observe the changes in appearance and odor. The test results are shown in Tables 1 and 2.
[0202] Table 1 Results of Appearance Stability Test
[0203]
[0204] Note: The change level in Table 1 is determined as follows: A is no change; B is slight change; C is significant change; D is serious change.
[0205] Table 2 Results of Odor Stability Test
[0206]
[0207] Note: The change level in Table 2 is determined as follows: A is no change; B is slight change; C is significant change; and D is severe change.
[0208] As shown in Tables 1 and 2, under the same conditions, Comparative Example 1, without the addition of micro / nano natural polymer hydrogel, showed slight changes at 50°C after 8 weeks. This was mainly due to the rancidity of the oils caused by prolonged exposure to high temperatures. Comparative Examples 2 and 3, with the addition of commercially available natural cellulose and MCC, showed varying degrees of stratification, oil precipitation, and spoilage. This may be because MCC and commercially available natural cellulose did not bind with the surfactant, and their density differed from the oil phase. Under the long-term influence of gravity, the powder gradually sank to the bottom of the container. The exposed oils then showed signs of rancidity, producing an unpleasant odor. The makeup remover composition, primarily composed of micro / nano natural polymer hydrogel and surfactant, showed no changes in appearance or odor after 12 weeks, indicating that the makeup remover composition prepared according to the formulation of this invention has good stability.
[0209] (2) pH value test: The makeup removal compositions prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-4 were subjected to pH value test according to GB / T 13531.1-2008. The test results are shown in Table 3.
[0210] Table 3 pH test results
[0211]
[0212] As shown in Table 3, the pH values of the makeup remover compositions prepared using micro / nano natural polymer hydrogels and surfactants meet the requirements of GB / T 35914-2018, all falling within the range of 4-11. Furthermore, these pH values are close to the slightly acidic pH of human skin, effectively preventing skin irritation during use.
[0213] (3) Makeup Removal Efficacy Test: The makeup removal compositions prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-4 were tested for their makeup removal efficacy. Twenty subjects aged 21-49 years (10 males and 10 females) were randomly selected for the test. The test method was as follows: BB cream, eyeliner, and mascara that last for 4 hours were applied to the inside of both arms of the 20 subjects. Then, 2 grams of the test sample were placed on the makeup area and wiped off 3 times. The samples were then washed with water. The subjects rated the results based on their own feelings. The rating criteria are shown in Table 4. The average score was calculated and recorded. The specific test results are shown in Table 5.
[0214] Table 4 Evaluation Criteria for Makeup Removal Effectiveness
[0215]
[0216] Table 5. Makeup Removal Effectiveness Rating Results
[0217]
[0218] As shown in Table 5, the makeup remover composition prepared with micro-nano natural polymer hydrogel and surfactant is similar to commercially available makeup removers in terms of appearance, texture, rinseability, and post-use feel, and its makeup removal ability even surpasses that of commercially available makeup removers. The vast majority of subjects reported a noticeable grainy feel during use in proportions 2 and 3, discomfort on the face during rubbing, and facial redness after use. In contrast, the micro-nano natural polymer hydrogel exhibits a more significant advantage in terms of flexible friction.
[0219] (4) Makeup Removal Test: The makeup removal compositions prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-4 were tested for their makeup removal effects. Foundation, lipstick, eyeliner, eyeshadow, blush, and other makeup were evenly applied to simulated skin and photographed. Then, 5g of each of the makeup removal compositions prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-4 were taken and rubbed evenly in circular motions for 1 minute. Afterward, they were rinsed under the same water flow for 1 minute. Finally, excess water was gently absorbed with a tissue, and photographed. The test results are shown in [reference needed]. Figure 5 and 6 .
[0220] from Figure 5 As can be seen, the makeup remover composition formed by using micro-nano natural polymer hydrogel and surfactants has a significant effect on removing makeup, leaving almost no residue. From... Figure 6 As can be seen, the products without added micro-nano natural polymer hydrogel, the products with added commercially available natural cellulose and MCC, and commonly used makeup removers all have a good removal effect on foundation and lipstick, but they are not completely effective at removing some eyeliner and eyeshadow, leaving obvious residue.
[0221] The above tests show that this invention uses micro-nano natural polymer hydrogel and surfactant to form supramolecular aggregates through hydrogen bonds. When using the makeup remover composition of this invention, the supramolecular aggregates formed by the micro-nano natural polymer hydrogel and surfactant come into contact with makeup on the skin. The surfactant emulsifies the oil, and combined with the gentle massage of the micro-nano natural polymer hydrogel, it also cleanses the keratinocytes of aged skin, significantly improving the facial cleansing effect. During rinsing, because the surfactant and micro-nano natural polymer hydrogel have formed aggregates, water removes the surfactant along with the micro-nano natural polymer hydrogel, reducing surfactant residue on the skin and effectively reducing skin irritation. The micro-nano natural polymer hydrogel used in this invention is naturally derived, the operation process is simple and environmentally friendly, and it is easy to achieve industrial application.
[0222] The exemplary embodiments of the present invention have been described above. However, the scope of protection of this application is not limited to the above embodiments. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made by those skilled in the art within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
