This paper is a study on how women consumers purchase are affected by models who appear in advertisements for cosmetics, focusing especially on studies concerning the impact that models have on advertisement strategies of the cosmetic industry in korea. In surveys conducted, consumers responded that cosmetic advertisement models should examplify a expertness and trustworthiness attitude more than just display their own physical attractiveness. The consumers who bought cosmetic products based on its endorsement from particular models responded that they had a positive reaction to the models physical attractiveness and likability while experiencing a negative reaction to the model's expertness and trustworthiness attitude. Women consumers are interested in cosmetic advertisement models, but do not necessarily trust them. Hence, the use of a Particular model does not directly affect the consumers Purchasing decision. Famous stars often appear in cosmetic advertisements in korea, and targeted consumers have a very positive response to their physical attractiveness, familiarity and perceived likability. However, the consumers have a completely negative response to the models in regards to their expertness, trustworthiness, and their sense of similarity with the model. The models, then, should be used in these advertisements to try and uphold the fellowing qualities. expertness in regards to having some knowledge of, experience with, and expertness in using the cosmetic produces, trustworthiness when expressing their own opinion of the product, matching image of products and targeted consumers.

Once powder base makeup products are applied to the skin, the products are formed a film and attached on the skin for 8 to 12 hours. The makeup film is deformed by secretions such as sweat and sebum secreted from the skin. Thus, durability of the film is an important quality factor in the makeup and its evaluation is also important. In this study, characteristics of the semi-finished powder products such as water absorption, oil absorption, water repellent and oil repellent were evaluated in a number of ways. Also, simple methods, which are not affected by evaluation conditions such as a difference between sweat and sebum secretion, temperature and humidity, were examined to predict the durability of the products. We measured water absorption, oil absorption, water repellent and oil-repellent properties of semifinished product by tablet, capillary and dipping method and then compared with the data of color difference meter and ROBO skin analyzer. Results showed that the durability of powder base makeup products was associated with more oil absorption and water-repellent characteristics than water absorption and oil-repellent. Oil absorption characteristics by tablet and capillary method and water-repellent characteristics by dipping method provides a simple and quick method to precdict the durability of the makeup products.

No matter how small amount of heavy metals it may be cause skin allergies through percutaneous adsorption when existing in cosmetic products as impurities. In order to develop a highly sensitive method for simultaneous determination of $Pb^{2+},\;Fe^{2+},\;Cu^{2+},\;Ni^{2+},\;Zn^{2+},\;Co^{2+},\;Cd^{2+},\;and\;Mn^{2+}$ in coloring agents and cosmetic products with rapidity and accuracy, we carried out the determination on ion chromatography. All of these metals are well separated through a bifunctional ion-exchange column(IonPac CS5A) and detected by post-column reaction and spectrophotometric detection. The calibration graphs are linear($r^2>0.999$) in the range $0.1{\sim}1000{\mu}g/mL$. Detection limits for 200 ${\mu}L$ of sample solution are at the level of ${\mu}g/L$, which is sufficient for judging whether the product is safe or not. The relative standard deviations(RSDs) of the retention time and the peak area are less than 0.21 and 1.24%, respectively. The recovery rates are $97{\sim}104%$. The new method was applied to analyze the amount of heavy metals which were contained in 22 cosmetic products and 11 coloring agents.

We describe here how we can use microfluidic technologies for fabricating functional materials that could be potentially utilized in cosmetics; these include void structures, functional particulate materials, shell materials, and multi-layered colloids. We can obtain these functional materials as microfluidic approaches provide precise control over both outer dimensions and inner morphology of emulsion drops in picoliter-volume scales with high throughput. We have confirmed that this technique has a great potential to fabricate novel particles and capsules with a variety of chemical compositions as well as higher orders of layers. This microfluidic approach will allow us to develop a lot of new techniques that are useful for a variety of applications, including delivery systems, chemical separations, bio-sensing, actuators, and so on. We do believe that these new techniques will help cosmetic industry not only give rise advanced functional materials and systems but also widen its product categories.

In this study, we propose an antibacterial cosmetic case using UV wavelengths. UVC have excellent antibacterial strength in terms of economics and convenience. The purpose of experiments was to prove it and to select a suitable permeability material. In experiments, UVA, UVC machanics and the competitor product were used to measure and compare the antibacterial strength of antibacterial cosmetic case using UV wavelength. S. aureus, a gram-positive strain, was used subject to the experiment, and the antibacterial strength measured and compared the number of colonies using the plate count technique. As a result, both UVA and UVC showed antibacterial activity, and UVC showed the most powerful antibacterial activity. In Conclusion, the Quartz glass was the most suitable of the permeable materials, but the more thick the examined quartz material became the less antibacterial strength.

We often use the KCID(Korean Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary) and ICID(International Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary) within cosmetics research and within their export and import. so far, we do not have a database of a cosmetics' raw materials. Because of this, we consume a lot of time to find the raw material data that is needed. This study constructs a cosmetics' raw material database and develops the program to retrieve it. We used a Linux machine as the equipment for this study and we used Apache web server, MySQL database server and PHP as the tools of this study. 11,817 kinds of raw materials data were registered as ICID, 866 kinds of raw materials data were registered as KCID and 28,008 kinds of raw materials data with registered trade name into the database. Also, The database was composed of the database of the association form. The database of the online form could ultimately reduce the task time as soon as it did its purpose. The product of this study can become a good basis of data to reconfigure. In the future, it can become a good database in relation with different databases.

In this study, anti-oxidant, whitening and anti-aging effects were investigated the possibility of fermented black tea yeast as a functional cosmetic material. The results of Aureobasidium pullulans (A. pullulans) ferment of black tea (AFBT) were compared with black tea (BT) and A. pullulans ferment (AF). The antioxidant activity of the AFBT product showed DPPH radical scavenging ability higher than that of AF. In the intracellular ROS experiments induced by hydrogen peroxide, the AFBT showed significant decreased activity. In addition, AFBT showed tyrosinase inhibitory activity and inhibited the formation of melanin using Melan-a and B16F10 cells. Through suppression of MMP-1 expression, the AFBT showed higher anti-wrinkle activity than BT and AF. From the results of this study, it was confirmed that AFBT showed antioxidant activity and was developed as a functional cosmetic material based on whitening and anti-wrinkle efficacies.

Recently, cosmetic shop market, which is made up of company, agent, and market shop, has got into trouble caused by economic crisis and the coming of new distribution systems such as internet shopping mall. To overcome the problems, in this paper, we propose a cosmetic distribution portal system, which we call COSPO. COSPO is a portal system that has three functions. The first is automation of the business process for product distribution between the company, agent, and market shops. The second is communication between them. The final is sharing information generated through the automated process. In this paper, we build a prototype that support distribution channel of a company. Then, ultimately it should be extended to cover the distribution network of all companies. COSPO will contribute to the modernization of the cosmetic market industry in the country as well as to the increase of the profits.
