Specific details for implementing the invention

[0047] The present invention will be explained in more detail below through the following examples. However, these examples are merely illustrative of the invention, and the scope of the invention is not limited by these examples.

[0048] Throughout this specification, "%" used to indicate the concentration of a particular substance is (weight / weight)% for solid / solid, (weight / volume)% for solid / liquid, and (volume / volume)% for liquid / liquid, unless otherwise noted.

[0050] Preparation Example 1. Preparation of a cosmetic composition

[0051] Cosmetic compositions of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5 were prepared according to the composition and content ratios listed in Table 1 below.

[0053] First, the aqueous and oil phase components of Table 1 above were each heated to 70°C and stirred to prepare the aqueous and oil phases, and the prepared aqueous and oil phases were mixed to prepare a liquid crystal cosmetic composition. Subsequently, the components of the thickener part and the preservative part were heated to 70°C, dissolved, and added to the mixed composition, and then cooled to 45°C to prepare the final cosmetic composition.

[0054] The compositions of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5 prepared as described above were used in the following experimental examples.

[0056] Experimental Example 1. Confirmation of liquid crystal structure formation of cosmetic compositions according to the type of aliphatic alcohol

[0057] The formation of a liquid crystal structure in the cosmetic compositions prepared according to Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3 was analyzed using an optical microscope. Images of the liquid crystal particles were captured using a fluorescence / polarization / phase contrast upright microscope (Olympus BX51, Olympus; 400x magnification).

[0058] As can be seen in FIGS. 1a and 1d, in the case of the cosmetic composition of Example 1 using cetearyl alcohol and stearyl alcohol, a liquid crystal structure was well formed, but in Comparative Examples 1 to 3 using behenyl alcohol, cetyl alcohol, or myristyl alcohol, respectively, instead of stearyl alcohol, a liquid crystal structure was hardly formed in the composition.

[0060] Experimental Example 2. Comparison of skin radiance improvement effects according to the type of aliphatic alcohol

[0061] After applying the cosmetic compositions of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3, the change in skin luster was compared.

[0062] First, to compare changes in skin gloss after the application of the cosmetic, five adult men and women with sensitive skin (average age 31.6 years) were selected, and the cosmetic compositions of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3 were applied to the face. Skin gloss (SKIN GLOSS UNIT) was measured 10 minutes after the application of the cosmetic to compare and evaluate the skin gloss before and after application. Skin gloss was measured using a skin gloss meter (Skin Gloss Meter, Delfin, Finland) and is shown in Table 2.

[0063] Examples Comparative Example 1 Comparative Example 2 Comparative Example 3 Skin Glow Increase / Decrease Rate (%) 33.03 28.83 26.54 20.8

[0064] As can be seen in Figure 2, in the case of the cosmetic composition of Example 1 using cetearyl alcohol and stearyl alcohol, the skin gloss after application increased by 33.03% compared to before application, but the cosmetic compositions of Comparative Examples 1 to 3 using behenyl alcohol, cetyl alcohol, or myristyl alcohol instead of stearyl alcohol showed an increase in skin gloss of about 20 to 30%, which did not reach the level of the cosmetic composition of Example 1.

[0066] Experimental Example 3. Confirmation of liquid crystal structure formation according to the content ratio of stearyl alcohol and cetearyl alcohol

[0067] The formation of a liquid crystal structure in the cosmetic compositions prepared according to Example 1 and Comparative Examples 4 and 5 was analyzed using an optical microscope. Images of the liquid crystal particles were captured using a fluorescence / polarization / phase contrast upright microscope (Olympus BX51, Olympus; 400x magnification).

[0068] As can be seen in Fig. 3a, in the case of the cosmetic composition of Example 1 containing stearyl alcohol and cetearyl alcohol in a weight ratio of 1:4, a liquid crystal structure was well formed.

[0069] On the other hand, as can be seen in Figures 3b and 3c, Comparative Examples 4 and 5, which were included in ratios of 1:8 and 1:2, formed a liquid crystal structure, but did not form a liquid crystal structure as well as the cosmetic composition of Example 1.

[0071] Experimental Example 4. Comparison of foundation transfer following cosmetic application

[0072] In order to compare the degree of foundation transfer according to the application of the cosmetic composition, the difference in the degree of foundation transfer according to whether or not the cosmetic composition of Example 1 was used was compared.

[0073] Five adult men and women with sensitive skin (average age 32.3 years) were selected. The inner forearm, the test site, was washed with soap and kept in a constant temperature and humidity room (22±2℃, 40~60 RH) for 10 minutes. The cosmetic composition of Example 1 was applied to the test site and dried for 3 minutes, after which a foundation product was applied. Subsequently, 3M paper was placed on the test site and pressed three times with a constant force, and the amount of foundation transferred was compared and evaluated. At this time, the control group did not have the cosmetic composition applied, and the area of ​​foundation transferred to the 3M paper was calculated using a C-cube (PIIXIENCE, France) and an Image Pro Analyzer (Media Cybernetics, Inc., USA) as measuring instruments.

[0074] As can be seen in Figure 4, the degree of foundation transfer on the area where the cosmetic composition was used was approximately 57.8% compared to the area where the cosmetic was not used.

[0076] Experimental Example 5. Comparison of moisturizing power according to the application of cosmetics

[0077] To confirm the moisturizing effect following the application of the cosmetic composition, the skin moisture level was measured before and after the application of the cosmetic composition of Example 1.

[0078] Specifically, the test area was washed with soap and then left in a constant temperature and humidity room (22±2℃, 40~60 RH) for 10 minutes. After that, the cosmetic composition of Example 1 was applied to the test area, and after 10 minutes, the skin moisture level of the test area was compared to before use. The above process was repeated three times, and the average of the measured values ​​was calculated and shown in Table 3.

[0079] Before use (AU) After use (AU) Increase Example 1 3.08 23.42 659.5%

[0080] As can be seen in Figure 5, when the cosmetic composition of Example 1 was applied to the test area, the skin moisture level increased significantly.
