Properties of fucoidan used for functional cosmetics agents were studied. Fucoidan was extracted from Undaria pinnatifida sporophylls. To test possibility of fucoidan as a cosmetics material, water-holding property measurement, DPPH free radical scavenging assay and MTT assay were done. Water-holding property of fucoidan was higher than that of hyaruronic acid, which is known as the one of the best water-holding material. The water-holding strength of fucoidan slightly increase as molecular weight of fucoidan decrease. Fucoidan showed high stability from MTT assay and good anti-oxidation property from DPPH assay. To evaluate the effect of water-holding property and anti-alergy property of fucoidan on the atopic dermatitis(AD), 46 AD patients were treated with fucoidan cream. After 6 weeks treatment, Investigation Global Assessment(IGA) scores decreased from 3.04 to 2.15, that is fucoidan cream had a 39.8% benefit effect on atopic dermatitis.

In the cosmetics industry, many raw materials such as hyaluronic acid and glycerin have been developed and studied as moisturizing agents for long-lasting moisturizing effects. In this study, we investigated changes in moisture and transdermal water loss of skin by changing the surfactant, instead of the moisturizing agent. Particularly, surfactant types such as natural surfactant, lecithin surfactant, polyglyceryl ester surfactant, peg Surfactant and peg w/o surfactant showed changes in moisture and transdermal water loss according to the changes of their surfactants. The best results were obtained when using Lecithin surfactant.

본 연구는 Soy Protein Isolate, Egg Albumin 및 Konjac의 보습제(humectants)를 첨가하여 제조한 육포의 이화학적, 미생물학적 및 관능적 특성 등을 조사하기 위하여 실시되었다. 보습제를 첨가한 처리구들은 대조구보다 높은 수분함량 및 제품수율을 나타내었으며, 낮은 puncture force를 나타내어 우수한 조직감을 보였다. 모든 처리구가 저장기간이 경과함에 따라 지질산패도 및 총균수가 증가하였으나 konjac을 첨가한 처리구에서 대조구에 비해 다소 낮은 TBA가를 나타냈었다. 또한 Soy protein isolate와 konjac을 첨가한 처리구가 다른 처리구에 비해 낮은 총균수를 나타내었다. 따라서 보습제 종류별 육포의 품질에 미치는 영향이 다소 차이는 있었지만, 저장성면에서 육포 제조시 보습제로서 konjac 첨가가 보다 유효한 것으로 판단된다.

To develop lipstick products with superior moisturizing effect using moisture base, bound water capacity and water holding capacity were investigated by DSC. Bound water capacity of the lipstick sample excluding moisture base is found to be 5.12 %. DSC measurement showed that bound water capacity and the concentration of moisture base were positively correlated. Additionally, DSC measurements and in vitro effective water holding capacity measurement showed similar patterns. Therefore, measuring of bound water capacity by DSC can predict the moisturizing effect of lipstick products.

Emulsion body cleansing systems containing high levels of occlusives have recently been developed such as using insoluble crystalline hydroxy waxes, insoluble crystalline surfactant structures, encapsulated particles and smectite clay. In this study, moisturizing effect of various occlusives such as petrolatum and triglycerides was researched in emulsion body cleansing systems. The experiment shows that petrolatum has less moisturizing capacity in emulsion body cleansing systems than triglycerides. In "leave-on" products such as lotion and cream formulations, the moisturizing capacity of petrolatum is more than that of triglycerides, but in "wash-off" emulsion body cleanser of this research, different results appeared. Emulsion body cleansing systems contained high levels of anionic and amphoteric surfactants, therefore petrolatum has more solubility and less deposited amount into the skin during washing process than triglycerides.

This study was to evaluate the effect of the moisturizing cream containing five kinds of plants extracts for human facial improvements such as hydrating ability, transepidermal water loss and erythema reaction. The antioxidant activities of yellowish natural colorants, extracted from five kinds of plants (Ceramium kondoi, Phellodendron amurense, Carthamus tinctorius, Gardenia jasminoides for. grandiflora and Aphis chinensis) were tested. Twenty-one volunteers were subjected to analyze the effects, and each result was determined by treating the complex cream containing plants extracts on their skin in three times. The moisture content on skin was significantly increased more than 50% by treating the cream containing five kinds of plants extracts. The transepidermal water loss was reduced and the level of the skin erythema reaction was improved after treatment of the complex cream. Survey analysis showed that the volunteers had highly satisfaction on the tested creams. The results suggest that the complex cream containing five plants extracts had an improved effect on facial skin, and therefore can be used as moisturizing ingredients in the related industry.

Cymbopogon citratus (CC) and Perilla frutescens (PF) are known to exert various biological effects. However, their skin hydration and skin barrier effects remain unclear. This study investigated effects of their extracts on skin hydration and skin barrier and analysed the phenolic compounds. effects of these extracts on skin hydration in HaCaT cells showed that Hyaluronic acid production in cells treated with ethanol extracts was higher than that treated with water extracts for both CC and PF. HPLC was used to analyse 19 phenolic compounds in CC and PF ethanol extracts (CCE and PFE). Results revealed chlorogenic acid and p-coumaric acid in CCE and rosmarinic acid and caffeic acid in PFE. Expression levels of hyaluronan synthase 1 (HAS1), HAS2, HAS3, and aquaporin 3 (AQP3), which are related to skin moisturization, and filaggrin and loricrin, which are related to skin barrier were higher in cells treated with CCE than with PFE. CCE and PFE also increased expression of PPAR-a protein involved in skin moisturization and epidermal differentiation in a concentration-dependent manner. As major components of CCE, chlorogenic acid and p-coumaric acid increased PPAR-a protein expression. Thus, CCE and PFE could be used as functional cosmetic materials for skin hydration and skin barrier effects.

Purpose: Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation decreases epidermal hydration, which is maintained by reduction of natural moisturizing factors (NMFs). Among various NMFs, free amino acids (AA) are major constituents generated by filaggrin degradation. This experiment was conducted to determine whether or not dietary supplementation of green tea extract (GTE) in UV-irradiated mice can improve epidermal levels of hydration, filaggrin, free AAs, and peptidylarginine deiminase-3 (PAD3) expression (an enzyme involved in filaggrin degradation). Methods: Hairless mice were fed a diet of 1% GTE for 10 weeks in parallel with UV irradiation (group UV+1%GTE). As controls, hairless mice were fed a control diet in parallel with (group UV+) or without (group UV-) UV irradiation. Results: In group UV+, epidermal levels of hydration and filaggrin were lower than those in group UV-; these levels increased in group UV+1% GTE to levels similar to group UV-. Epidermal levels of PAD3 and major AAs of NMF, alanine, glycine and serine were similar in groups UV- and UV+, whereas these levels highly increased in group UV+1% GTE. Conclusion: Dietary GTE improves epidermal hydration by filaggrin generation and degradation into AAs.
