Objective : We have reported the effects of Seosiokyongsan (SSOOS) cp soap on increasing skin moisture, decreasing pore size, and reducing acne symptoms on previous studies. But in the case of SSOOS soap, many soap bases were used in the making process. So we could not determine whether the above test results were the effect of soap bases or SSOOS herb medicine. Therefore, We conducted this clinical test to find out the effect of SSOOS itself. Methods : We made two kinds of soap. One type was made of cp soap using only soap bases and gave them to 10 subjects. The other type was cp soap made by adding SSOOS to the soap base and gave them to 25 subjects. The other 10 subjects did not limit the soap. Subjects were asked to wash their face with soap in the morning and evening for six weeks. The test was conducted three times and the results were compared and analyzed. Results : In the test group using the SSOOS soap, the oil in the U zone was significantly decreased and the moisture was significantly increased compared to other two control groups. Pores size and pigmentation were decreased but not significant. There was a significant increase in moisture in the soap base group, but that was a slight increase compared to SSOOS soap. There was no significant results in the without soap control group. Conclusion : SSOOS soap was found to have a significant effect on facial skin as cleansing products.

Objectives: The condition of the skin is greatly influenced by seasonal changes. We wanted to know the seasonal change of skin condition and to find out the difference in the efficacy of Seoshiokyongsan (SSOOS) CP soap in spring and autumn. We are to help people who use soap to make a wise choice in choosing a cleanser according to the season. Methods: To investigate the seasonal skin condition, this experiment was conducted to examine the skin condition of spring and autumn in 20 students at A university. To compare the seasonal efficacy of Seosiokyongsan (SSOOS) CP soap, we had skin test 10 students in spring and autumn. We made herbal fermented soaps using SSOOS and distributed them to experiment participants. We let them wash their face in the morning and evening for 6 weeks using herbal fermented soap. Prior to the experiment, their skin condition was checked and assessed using A-ONE Smart One-Click Automatic Facial Diagnosis System three times at 3-week intervals. After the experiment, the changes of skin were measured and analyzed through facial analysis test. Results: In spring and autumn, the oil of T zone and U zone was significantly less and the water content was significantly higher in autumn than in spring. In the case of using the SSOOS CP soap, water content increased and oil content decreased in spring, oil content and elasticity increased in autumn. Conclusion: There is a difference in the skin condition according to the season and SSOOS CP soap showed difference in efficacy in spring and autumn. So we should pay attention to seasonal soap selection.

Objectives : In previous studies, I presented various effects of Seosiokyongsan (SSOOS) cp soap on facial skin. However, in the case of skin clinical trials, various factors such as lifestyle, alcohol, tobacco, and stress could not be excluded. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of face wash using SSOOS cp soap on the skin without environmental factors. Methods : The same water and towel were used at the same place in order to examine the skin change state immediately before and after washing face with SSOOS cp soap. The skin test was performed before washing the face and after 10 minutes washing the face to compare the changes. As a control group, the case of washing with water without using cleanser and the case of washing with S-K cleanser, which is a popular commercial product, were set. Three cases were compared and analyzed. Results : In the case of water washing, the decrease in moisture was similar to that of the S-K cleanser and the amount of oil and pores decreased, but it was weaker than that of the S-K cleanser. The SSOOS cp soap showed a decrease in oil, pores, and pigments, but it was not significant, the moisture showed a significant decrease, but it was mild compared to S-K cleanser and water wash. Conclusion : In the case of SSOOS cp soap, the stimulation caused by facial cleansing was the least, showing a gentle change.
