Cosmetic Composition Using Composite Fillers for Long-Lasting Moisturization
Solution Overview
Problem
Cosmetic products that provide long-lasting effects often result in a dry sensation, making it difficult to maintain a balance between longevity and moisturization, especially in hot and humid climates.
Innovation Solution
A cosmetic composition for the skin comprising a moisturizer, a film-forming polymer, and a combination of hydrophobic silica, perlite, urethane polymer powder, and acrylic polymer powder, which works together to provide long-lasting effects without causing dryness.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If fatty compounds are added to maintain moisturizing feeling, then moisturizing effect is improved, but long-lasting effects deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses a composite filler system comprising hydrophobic silica, perlite, urethane polymer powder, and acrylic polymer powder in specific weight ratios. This composite material replaces traditional fatty compounds for moisture retention while the film-forming polymer provides long-lasting effects, resolving the contradiction between moisturizing and longevity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent specifies precise weight ratio parameters for the filler combination (hydrophobic silica: 30-70 wt%, perlite: 10-40 wt%, urethane polymer powder: 5-30 wt%, acrylic polymer powder: 5-30 wt%) and film-forming polymer content (1-20 wt%), optimizing the balance between moisturizing properties and long-lasting effects by controlling these compositional parameters.
2Ease of operation
If fatty compounds are added to avoid dry sensation, then skin comfort is improved, but foundation wear resistance deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs a composite filler system with hydrophobic silica, perlite, urethane polymer powder, and acrylic polymer powder that provides both skin comfort through moisture retention and foundation wear resistance through the film-forming polymer network, eliminating the need for fatty compounds.
Solution Approach 2:
The film-forming polymer acts as an intermediary that creates a durable film on the skin, allowing the cosmetic composition to maintain both skin comfort and wear resistance without relying on fatty compounds that compromise longevity.
