Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a skin-improving cosmetic composition containing low molecular weight collagen, collagen water, or an extract, and more particularly to a skin-improving cosmetic composition containing low molecular weight collagen, collagen water, or an extract that, when used as a cosmetic composition, exhibits excellent skin-soothing, moisturizing, and skin barrier-improving effects, thereby improving skin health. [Background technology]
[0002] Modern society generates large amounts of reactive oxygen species due to exhaust fumes, harmful chemicals, ozone layer depletion, ultraviolet radiation, and water pollution. These reactive oxygen species penetrate the human body and cause various side effects, and are particularly known to be the main cause of pigment changes and skin aging.
[0003] Furthermore, in recent years, outdoor leisure activities such as golf have increased as a way to relieve excessive social and work-related stress. However, during such outdoor leisure activities, the skin is more easily exposed to the aforementioned sources of pollution, making skin damage and aging unavoidable. This has a negative impact on the tendency to enjoy outdoor leisure activities more actively and comfortably.
[0004] Generally, the skin plays a primary role in protecting our bodies from various external factors that disrupt homeostasis through basic metabolic processes. In other words, being the outermost layer of the body, the skin performs various functions such as protection through physical, chemical, and biological barrier functions, thermoregulation, sensory functions, secretory and excretory functions, absorption functions, storage functions, and regeneration functions. However, it is the most vulnerable to damage when subjected to sustained external stress.
[0005] The main causes of such external stress include ultraviolet radiation exposure, exhaust fumes, yellow dust, environmental pollutants, heavy metals, temperature changes, and microorganisms. These primarily generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) through oxidative stress, which disrupt the antioxidant defense system and cause cell damage and death.
[0006] Traditionally, cosmetics that provide elasticity to the skin, suppress the formation of wrinkles, and prevent skin aging have included cosmetics containing moisturizing ingredients such as collagen, elastin, natural moisturizing factors (NMOs), and glycerin, as well as cosmetics containing cell regeneration ingredients such as vitamins A, C, E and their derivatives, licorice extracted from plants, beta-carotene, and amino acids involved in signal transduction in fibroblasts.
[0007] Conventional cosmetics like these have several problems: when exposed to ultraviolet light and air for extended periods, the raw materials used in them can precipitate through recrystallization or discolor; in addition, they are difficult to maintain their potency, resulting in insufficient efficacy and potentially causing side effects on the skin.
[0008] Furthermore, in recent years, risk factors for the skin have been increasing. Changes in dietary habits have slowed down the rate of keratinization and shedding of the stratum corneum, and the decline in the function of keratin-forming cells has reduced the amount of moisturizing factors and lipids in the stratum corneum. As a result, the number of people with skin in which the stratum corneum cannot perform its normal skin barrier function is increasing.
[0009] Such impairment of the skin barrier function can trigger various skin diseases such as xerosis, atopic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, and psoriasis. While these conditions can be alleviated with conventional moisturizers that have normal water-retaining properties, a complete cure is difficult to achieve.
[0010] Therefore, the inventors have completed the present invention by confirming that a cosmetic composition containing low-molecular-weight collagen, collagen water, or collagen extract has excellent skin-soothing, moisturizing, and skin barrier-improving effects, thereby improving skin health.

[Figure 2] This graph shows the skin wrinkle-improving effects of the cosmetics produced in Examples 1, 2, and 3, and the cosmetics produced in Comparative Examples 1 and 2. [Modes for carrying out the invention]
[0028] The advantages and features of the present invention, and methods for achieving them, will become clear with reference to the embodiments described herein in detail. The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described herein and may be embodied in other forms. Rather, the embodiments presented herein are provided to ensure that the disclosed content is thorough and complete and that the idea of the invention is fully conveyed to those skilled in the art.
[0029] The terminology used in this application is for the sole purpose of describing specific embodiments and is not intended to limit the invention. Singular expressions include plural expressions unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.
[0030] Unless otherwise defined, all terms used herein, including technical or scientific terms, have the same meaning as they would be generally understood by a person of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. Terms as defined in commonly used dictionaries have a meaning consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant art and should not be interpreted as ideal or overly formal unless explicitly defined herein.
[0031] The following describes in detail, with reference to preferred examples, a skin-improving cosmetic composition containing low-molecular-weight collagen, collagen water, or an extract, according to one embodiment of the technical concept of the present invention.
[0032] A skin-improving cosmetic composition containing low-molecular-weight collagen, collagen water, or an extract according to one embodiment of the technical concept of the present invention may contain at least one collagen selected from low-molecular-weight collagen powder, collagen water, or collagen extract.
[0033] Collagen, as mentioned above, is a structural protein found in most animals, and is particularly essential for the meat and connective tissue of mammals. Our bodies contain approximately 20% protein, of which 30% is collagen (LC. Junqueira and J. Carneiro 1983). It is also found in large quantities in the bones and skin of animals such as cows, pigs, chickens, and fish. Currently, collagen is used in a wide range of products, from health foods to cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.
[0034] The aforementioned collagen is generally classified into high molecular weight collagen (5,000 daltons or more) and low molecular weight collagen (1,500 daltons or less) according to its molecular weight. Low molecular weight collagen is known to have a relatively higher absorption rate in the body than high molecular weight collagen and is used in health functional foods, cosmetics, and over-the-counter medicines.
[0035] Collagen, the main protein that makes up the skin, is a fibrous protein that accounts for about 90% of the dermis. Along with elastin, it provides the tension and elasticity of the skin and protects the skin from ultraviolet rays, thus preventing wrinkles. It is known that collagen can be transmitted from the epidermis to the dermis layer when its molecular weight is at least 500 Da or less.
[0036] In muscle tissue, collagen acts as the main component of the endomysium. Collagen has a molecular weight of 300,000, and three α-chains with molecular weights of 100,000 come together to form a γ-chain, creating a right-handed helix with one turn every 40 residues. It has a triple helix structure with a diameter of 15 nm and a length of 300 nm. The α-chains are strongly bound together by some hydrogen bonds, and when microfibrils gather together, they become collagen fibrils through covalent cross-linking, and these then combine to form fibers.
[0037] The low molecular weight collagen powder may be collagen powder with a molecular weight of 200 to 300 daltons (Da), but the low molecular weight collagen powder may be collagen powder produced by the following method.
[0038] First, collagen may be prepared in order to produce low-molecular-weight collagen powder.
[0039] As the collagen, various types of animals containing collagen may be used. For example, as the animal collagen-containing material, at least one selected from the group consisting of fish, collagen extracted from fish scales, chicken foot collagen, cow foot collagen, and pig foot collagen may be used.
[0040] Next, the collagen may be sterilized.
[0041] The sterilization treatment may be carried out using known sterilization methods such as ultra-high temperature (UHT) sterilization or high temperature short-time sterilization (HTST). Specifically, the sterilization conditions using high temperature short-time sterilization (HTST) may involve sterilization at a temperature of 70-75°C for 10-20 seconds, and the sterilization conditions using ultra-high temperature (UHT) may involve sterilization at a temperature of 130-140°C for 2-10 seconds.
[0042] Next, the sterilized collagen may be enzymatically hydrolyzed to produce collagen hydrolysates.
[0043] The enzymatic decomposition may be carried out by mixing 80 to 120 parts by weight of the sterilized material, 20 to 40 parts by weight of proteolytic enzyme, and 150 to 250 parts by weight of purified water to produce a collagen enzyme mixture, and then heating the collagen enzyme mixture in a water bath at a temperature of 57 to 635°C for 1 to 5 hours. For example, at least one selected from the group consisting of aminopeptidase, flavozyme, protamax, protease, neutrase, and alcalase may be used as the proteolytic enzyme.
[0044] Specifically, the proteolytic enzyme may be purchased as a commercially available product, but for example, the proteolytic enzyme may be a mixture of alcalase (Novozymes, Bagsvaerd, Denmark) and protease-NP (Bioland, Asan, Korea) in a 1:1 weight ratio.
[0045] Next, the collagen enzyme hydrolysate may be decolorized and deodorized.
[0046] The collagen enzyme hydrolysate may be decolorized and deodorized to remove odor and produce a white, bleached collagen enzyme hydrolysate. For example, the decolorization and deodorization may be carried out by immersing the collagen enzyme hydrolysate in sodium hypochlorite for 10 to 60 minutes.
[0047] Next, the decolorized and deodorized collagen enzyme hydrolysate may be concentrated to produce a collagen concentrate.
[0048] The collagen concentrate may be produced by concentrating the decolorized and deodorized collagen enzyme hydrolysate using a known concentrator. However, since the method of concentration using such a concentrator is a known technique, a specific explanation of this will be omitted for the sake of convenience of explanation and clarity of the technical concept of the present invention.
[0049] Next, the collagen concentrate may be dried to produce collagen powder with a molecular weight of 200 to 300 daltons (Da).
[0050] For example, the collagen powder may be produced by spray-drying the collagen concentrate at a temperature of 160 to 180°C.
[0051] Furthermore, the collagen water used may be collagen water produced by the following method.
[0052] First, collagen may be prepared in order to produce the collagen water.
[0053] As the collagen, various types of animals containing collagen may be used. For example, as the animal collagen-containing material, at least one selected from the group consisting of fish, collagen extracted from fish scales, chicken foot collagen, cow foot collagen, and pig foot collagen may be used.
[0054] Next, the collagen may be sterilized.
[0055] The sterilization treatment may be carried out using known sterilization methods such as ultra-high temperature (UHT) sterilization or high temperature short-time sterilization (HTST). Specifically, the sterilization conditions using high temperature short-time sterilization (HTST) may involve sterilization at a temperature of 70-75°C for 10-20 seconds, and the sterilization conditions using ultra-high temperature (UHT) may involve sterilization at a temperature of 130-140°C for 2-10 seconds.
[0056] Next, the sterilized collagen may be distilled to produce a collagen distillation extract.
[0057] For example, the collagen distillation extract may be produced by adding 10 to 30 times (v / w) distilled water to the sterilized collagen, heating the mixture at 60 to 80°C for 10 to 50 minutes, then distilling the extract while heating at 100°C, and recovering the distillate at 30 to 40% of the total weight of the mixture.
[0058] Next, the collagen distillation extract may be filtered to produce collagen water.
[0059] For example, the collagen water may be produced by filtering the collagen distillation extract through a known filter to remove solid matter, thereby extracting the useful components of collagen.
[0060] Furthermore, the collagen extract used may be a collagen extract produced by the following method.
[0061] First, collagen may be prepared in order to produce the collagen extract.
[0062] As the collagen, various known types of animals containing collagen may be used. For example, as the animal collagen-containing material, at least one selected from the group consisting of fish, collagen extracted from fish scales, chicken foot collagen, cow foot collagen, and pig foot collagen may be used.
[0063] Next, the collagen may be sterilized.
[0064] The sterilization treatment may be carried out using known sterilization methods such as ultra-high temperature (UHT) sterilization or high temperature short-time sterilization (HTST). Specifically, the sterilization conditions using high temperature short-time sterilization (HTST) may involve sterilization at a temperature of 70-75°C for 10-20 seconds, and the sterilization conditions using ultra-high temperature (UHT) may involve sterilization at a temperature of 130-140°C for 2-10 seconds.
[0065] Next, the sterilized collagen may be subjected to hot water extraction to produce a collagen hot water extract.
[0066] For example, the collagen hot water extract may be produced by mixing 100 parts by weight of the total content of the sterilized collagen with 80 to 120 parts by weight of purified water, and then heating at a temperature of 90 to 100°C for 1 to 3 hours to perform hot water extraction.
[0067] Next, the collagen hot water extract may be filtered to produce a collagen extract.
[0068] For example, the collagen extract may be produced by filtering the collagen hot water extract through a known filter to remove solid matter, thereby extracting the oil-soluble components of collagen.
[0069] A skin-improving cosmetic composition containing low molecular weight collagen, collagen water, or extract according to one embodiment of the technical concept of the present invention includes the low molecular weight collagen powder, collagen water, collagen extract, caffeic acid, soybean-derived lysolecithin, herbal fermentation extract, coenzyme Q10, tocopherol acetate, butylene glycol, stearyltrimethylammonium chloride, L-aspartic acid, sorbitol, stearyl alcohol, cyclopentasiloxane, vitamin C, madecassoside, olive liquid, sodium laureth sulfate, cocamide MIPA, brewer's yeast extract, acai berry extract, emollient oil, inchin extract, sansai extract, grapefruit seed extract, sodium alginate, pine bark extract, pine needle sprout extract, panthenol, and salicylic acid.

[0071] Caffeic acid, as mentioned above, is an organic compound classified as hydroxycinnamic acid, consisting of a phenol group and an acrylic group. Caffeic acid has been found in all plants because it is an important intermediate in the biosynthesis of lignin, a major component of biomass. Caffeic acid has been shown to have potent antioxidant activity both in vitro and in vivo, and also possesses immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory activity.
[0072] In the present invention, known caffeic acids may be used as the caffeic acid, but for example, a caffeic acid derivative with the structural formula shown in Chemical Formula 1 below may be used as the caffeic acid.
[0073] [ka]
[0074] In the above formula 1, R is C 4-6 The side chain is alkyl or cyclohexyl.
[0075] Specifically, the caffeic acid derivative represented by Formula 1 may be at least one selected from (E)-4-(3-(cyclohexyloxy)-3-oxoprof-1-en-1-yl)-1,2-phenylenebis(2,2-dimethylpropanoate) or (E)-4-(3-(cyclohexyloxy)-3-oxoprof-1-en-1-yl)-1,2-phenylenedicyclohexanecarboxylate.
[0076] The aforementioned soybean-derived lysolecithin is lysolecithin extracted from soybeans, and this lysolecithin functions as a transdermal permeation enhancer and emulsifier, and can contribute to increased absorption by the skin.
[0077] The lysolecithin mentioned above may be a known lysolecithin extracted from soybeans. Soybeans, one of Korea's traditional foods, are generally used as a source of high-quality protein and lipids. They have been used in a variety of applications, from fermented foods such as miso and soy sauce to non-fermented foods such as tofu, bean sprouts, and soy flour. Recently, they have begun to attract attention as a functional food that can prevent aging and lifestyle-related diseases, including skin whitening.
[0078] Numerous studies have been conducted on soybeans in relation to skin aging, skin whitening, and moisturizing, and the number of skin beauty products using soybeans being released is increasing. Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2004-0106893 discloses soybean yellow syrup extract and a functional cosmetic product for preventing skin aging containing it as an active ingredient, and Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2005-0079478 discloses cheonggukjang extract obtained by fermenting soybeans with Bacillus bacteria and a cosmetic composition containing it. An invention relating to a cosmetic composition using beans is a soybean fermentation extract obtained by fermenting soybeans with Bacillus bacteria and a cosmetic composition containing it (Registered Patent 10-0810006).
[0079] In the present invention, the lysolecithin may be lysolecithin produced by extraction from soybeans, but since the composition of the lysolecithin is a known technique, a specific explanation thereof will be omitted for the sake of convenience of explanation and clarity of the technical concept of the present invention.
[0080] The aforementioned herbal fermented extract may be produced by fermenting herbal materials and then extracting them, but the aforementioned herbal fermented extract may also be produced by the following method.
[0081] In other words, in order to produce the aforementioned herbal fermented extract, one may first prepare the herbal ingredients.
[0082] The aforementioned herbal medicine ingredients may include peony, mulberry leaves, Poria cocos, balloon flower, ginger, licorice, macadamia, black cumin seeds, chia seeds, moringa seeds, and safflower seeds. The aforementioned herbal medicine ingredients may be prepared in the following weight ratios: 10-20 parts by weight of peony, 1-10 parts by weight of mulberry leaves, 5-10 parts by weight of Poria cocos, 5-15 parts by weight of balloon flower, 10-20 parts by weight of ginger, 1-3 parts by weight of licorice, 1-5 parts by weight of macadamia, 1-5 parts by weight of black cumin seeds, 1-5 parts by weight of chia seeds, 1-5 parts by weight of moringa seeds, and 1-5 parts by weight of safflower seeds.
[0083] The aforementioned peony (Paeonia lactiflora Pall) belongs to the Paeoniaceae family and is classified into red and white varieties. Peonies are known to be widely distributed in a wide area including northeastern China (north of Jiangsu Province), Mongolia, the southeastern Far East of Asia, and Korea.

[0167] 1. Evaluation of improvement in skin brightness The skin brightness improvement effects of the cosmetics produced in Examples 1, 2, and 3, and the cosmetics produced in Comparative Examples 1 and 2, were evaluated.
[0168] Figure 1 is a graph showing the skin brightness improvement effect of the cosmetics produced in Examples 1, 2, and 3, and the cosmetics produced in Comparative Examples 1 and 2.
[0169] The aforementioned effect on improving skin brightness was assessed by measuring the skin brightness of 40 women aged 20-40 using a Chromameter CR-400 before use. Then, the skin brightness was remeasured after individually using the cosmetics according to Examples 1, 2, and 3, and the cosmetics according to Comparative Examples 1 and 2.
[0170] The measurement results are shown in Table 1 and Figure 1 below, and the measured values are shown as the average of three measurements excluding the maximum and minimum values of L*.
[0171] [Table 1]
[0172] Referring to Table 1 and Figure 1, it can be confirmed that the cosmetics produced in Examples 1, 2, and 3 showed a significant improvement in skin brightness compared to the cosmetics produced in Comparative Examples 1 and 2.
[0173] 2. Evaluation of the effect on improving skin wrinkles The skin wrinkle-improving effects of the cosmetics produced in Examples 1, 2, and 3, and the cosmetics produced in Comparative Examples 1 and 2, were evaluated.
[0174] Figure 2 is a graph showing the skin wrinkle improvement effects of the cosmetics produced in Examples 1, 2, and 3, and the cosmetics produced in Comparative Examples 1 and 2.
[0175] The aforementioned effect on improving skin wrinkles was measured in 50 women aged 30 and over.
[0176] The cosmetics according to Examples 1, 2, and 3, and the cosmetics according to Comparative Examples 1 and 2, were applied twice a day (morning and evening) for 10 weeks, mainly around the eyes, and the wrinkle-improving effect on the subjects' skin was measured using the ANTERA3D skin wrinkle improvement measuring device.
[0177] The test results are recorded using the A1 (A1 (10 weeks) to A1 (0 weeks)) values of the measuring instrument. The A1 value indicates the viscoelastic properties of skin wrinkles, and the results are shown in Table 2 and Figure 2 below.
[0178] [Table 2]
[0179] Referring to Table 2 and Figure 2 above, it can be confirmed that the cosmetics produced in Examples 1, 2, and 3 are significantly superior in their effect on improving skin wrinkles compared to the cosmetics produced in Comparative Examples 1 and 2.
[0180] 3. Experiments on improving skin whitening Melanin tyrosinase is the main enzyme that produces melanin pigment. To confirm the whitening effect of the cosmetic according to Example 1, the enzyme activity inhibitory ability of the test substance was measured by comparing the amount of DOPA (dihydroxyphenylalanine) or dopachrome produced from tyrosinase, the main enzyme in melanin synthesis.
[0181] The test method involved using tyrosine as a substrate, adding it to an enzyme reaction solution, allowing it to react for a certain period of time, and then measuring the absorbance at 475 nm, which is the absorption wavelength of the reaction product, dopachrome.
[0182] 500 μl of 0.1 M Potassium phosphate buffer solution (pH 6.8) was mixed with 500 μl of L-tyrosine (0.3 mg / ml) and 450 μl each of the cosmetic compositions from Example 1 and Comparative Example 1. The mixture was reacted on a 37°C water bath for 10 minutes, and then immediately refrigerated for 5 minutes to interrupt the reaction. 50 μl of tyrosinase (1,250 units / ml) was added and incubated for 10 minutes, after which the absorbance was measured at 475 nm. For the control, 450 μl of the sample solvent was added instead of the test solution. For the color correction (Blank), 50 μl of Potassium phosphate buffer solution (pH 6.8, 0.1 M) was added instead of tyrosinase, and the same concentration of sample as the experimental group was added. The tyrosinase inhibitory activity was calculated using the following formula 1 and is shown in Table 3.
[0183] <Number 1> % inhibition = [(AB) / A] × 100
[0184] A: Absorbance after reaction of the reaction solution (control) without the test sample (inhibitor). B: Absorbance of the reaction solution containing the test sample after the reaction.
[0185] [Table 3]
[0186] Referring to Table 3 above, it was confirmed that the cosmetic composition according to Example 1 showed a tyrosinase inhibition rate of 36.87%, while the cosmetic composition according to Comparative Example 1 showed a tyrosinase inhibition rate of 12.33%.
[0187] Furthermore, the cosmetic formulation according to Example 1 showed a slightly lower inhibition rate than the control group, Arbutin. Therefore, it can be said that the cosmetic formulation according to Example 1 is effective in inhibiting tyrosinase.
[0188] 4. Measurement of moisturizing effect Using a capacitance measurement method with a Corneometer CM820 (Courage, Germany), the moisturizing effect was compared and measured using the cosmetic product from Example 1 and the cosmetic product from Comparative Example 1.
[0189] Twenty women aged 20 to 50 years were subjected to a 20-minute exposure to a constant temperature and humidity chamber on the inner surface of their forearms immediately before the start of the experiment, and their skin moisture levels were kept constant. Next, the initial moisture content of each sample application site was measured using a Corneometer C820, and then the cosmetic formulation according to Example 1 and the cosmetic formulation according to Comparative Example 1 were applied.
[0190] The percentage change in skin moisture was measured 20 minutes after application and again 2 hours later. Each measurement site was measured three times, and the average value was used to calculate the percentage change in skin moisture using Equation 2, which is shown in Table 4.
[0191] Moisture content increase / decrease (%) = (Tdi - Tdo) - (Ntdi - NTdo) / ((Ntdi - Ntdo) + Tdo) * 100
[0192] Tdi: nth measurement of the sample application site Tdo: Measurement value before sample application Ntdi: The nth measurement of the area where the sample was not applied. NTdo: Pre-application measurement of the area where the sample was not applied.
[0193] [Table 4]
[0194] Referring to Table 4 above, it can be confirmed that the cosmetic composition according to Example 1 has superior moisturizing effects not only initially but also over time compared to the cosmetic composition according to Comparative Example 1.
[0195] 4. Testing of dosage form stability Stability tests were conducted on the cosmetics manufactured according to Examples 1, 2, and 3 described above.
[0196] The observation period was the same for one week, and stability was observed at various temperatures. After that, the external properties, discoloration, and odor changes were checked, and the results are shown in Table 5.
[0197] [Table 5]
[0198] Referring to Table 5 above, it can be confirmed that the cosmetics produced in Examples 1, 2, and 3 have good dosage form stability.
[0199] Although a preferred embodiment of the present invention has been described above with reference to the attached drawings, a person with ordinary skill in the art to which the present invention belongs can implement the present invention in other specific forms without changing its technical idea or essential features. Therefore, the embodiment described above is illustrative in all respects and not limiting.
