Description

  The present invention relates to a cosmetic pack agent which is excellent in skin whitening effect and moisture retention and further has an anti-inflammatory action.

  It is known that the skin is caused by external stress due to ultraviolet rays or drying and deterioration of function due to aging, resulting in inflammation, melanin pigmentation, dry skin, and rough skin due to sunburn. In recent years, research on the production of cosmetics with excellent whitening, antioxidant, and moisturizing effects using various natural powders and extracts (natural ingredients) has been actively promoted. Yes.

  For example, among various natural products, green tea typified by matcha tea that has been loved in Japan has been known to have strong antioxidant and deodorizing effects, particularly due to its catechins (polyphenols).

  The tea extract or tea powder is expected to have a whitening effect due to its strong antioxidant effect. For example, in Patent Document 1 below, whitening cosmetics using tea as one or more plant extracts are disclosed. It is disclosed.

  In addition, as a medicinal pack agent using tea, a tea leaf fine powder and matcha tea or tea extract as a main component and a film forming agent, a thickener, a moisturizer, etc. are blended (for example, Patent Document 2). It has been.

  On the other hand, among various natural products, Funari, which is a kind of seaweed, contains a large amount of water-soluble fiber sulfated polysaccharide, and is known to contain abundant iodine and minerals. It has been used for shampooing and face washing by putting it in Japanese clothing paste or miso soup, or by dissolving it in water.

  In addition, fufun powder has properties that it is very easy to dissolve in water and can be used as a binder for various materials.

  For this reason, for example, Patent Document 3 discloses a cosmetic pack agent using a furan as a binder between a limestone powder material and a seaweed powder material as a cosmetic pack agent using a furan.

  Further, among various natural products, buckwheat flour contains rutin, which is a flavonoid that is an antioxidant component, and is known to have an effect of strengthening the function of capillaries.

For this reason, for example, Patent Document 4 discloses an antiallergic skin external preparation containing extracts such as buckwheat as an antiallergic skin external preparation using buckwheat.

  However, when tea extract or tea powder dissolved in water is applied to the skin, it does not fit well with the skin, and the following problems occur when this is used as it is as a pack. .

  In other words, tea extract or tea powder contains whitening ingredients such as catechins, but the active ingredients are not absorbed into the skin and are only slightly irritating if they are simply dissolved in water and applied externally to the skin. May cause a feeling.

  On the other hand, Funari contains sulfated polysaccharide funolan and has a moisturizing action and has been reported as a binder for pack agents, but no whitening action or anti-inflammatory action has been known.

  Furthermore, buckwheat flour contains polyphenols such as rutin, and although there have been reports of antiallergic skin external preparations using buckwheat flour extract, whitening and moisturizing effects have not been known.

  Moreover, the buckwheat extract or buckwheat powder has low solubility in water and is difficult to dissolve uniformly. In addition, in order to apply this as it is as a pack agent on the skin, it has poor adhesion to the skin and is not suitable for use as a cosmetic in the first place.

  As a result, when the tea, funari and soba extracts or these powders were each incorporated into cosmetics, sufficient whitening effect, moisturizing effect and anti-inflammatory effect could not be obtained.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a cosmetic pack agent that is excellent in skin whitening effect using these natural ingredients, and has excellent effects in eliminating spots, recovery from sunburn, moisture retention and anti-inflammatory action. is there.

  As a result of the inventor's extensive research to solve these problems, the tea, funari and buckwheat extracts or their powders are made into a suitable blend, which is stable and well-familiar with the skin. It has been found that it is an active ingredient of a cosmetic pack that is excellent in effect, moisturizing effect and anti-inflammatory effect, and has completed the present invention.

  That is, the cosmetic pack agent of the present invention is characterized by blending tea, funari and soba extracts or their powders as active ingredients.

  The second composition of the present invention is the tea composition or tea powder 0.1 to 50% by weight, the fungus extract or fungi powder 0.1 to 50% by weight and the buckwheat extract or buckwheat flour in the first composition. It contains 0.1 to 75% by weight.

  A third configuration of the present invention contains 0.1 to 10% by weight of 1,3-butylene glycol and 0.01 to 0.5% by weight of methyl paraoxybenzoate in the first or second configuration. It is characterized by.

  According to a fourth configuration of the present invention, in any one of the first to third configurations, fats and oils, hydrocarbons, waxes, fatty acids, synthetic esters, alcohols, surfactants, thickeners, One or more kinds selected from the group consisting of a humectant, a preservative, a fragrance, a pigment, a drug, and water are blended.

  According to a fifth configuration of the present invention, in the third or fourth configuration, the tea extract or tea powder is 5 to 30% by weight, the fungus extract or funi powder is 0.5 to 10% by weight, the soba extract or soba noodles. It contains 0.5 to 10% by weight of powder.

  ADVANTAGE OF THE INVENTION According to this invention, the cosmetic pack agent which is excellent in the skin whitening effect and has the effect excellent in the elimination of a spot, recovery of sunburn, moisture retention, and an anti-inflammatory action can be provided.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail. In the cosmetic pack of the present invention, in the total amount of the cosmetic, 0.1 to 50% by weight of the tea extract or tea powder, 0.1 to 50% by weight of the funari extract or funari powder, the soba extract or oat flour Is 0.1 to 75% by weight, and water is 0 to 90% by weight.

  When the blending amount of the tea extract or tea powder in the cosmetic is less than 0.1% by weight, the whitening effect, the moisturizing effect and the anti-inflammatory effect cannot be obtained. On the other hand, when the blending amount of the tea extract or tea powder in the cosmetic exceeds 50% by weight, the whitening effect, moisturizing effect and anti-inflammatory effect are not seen, and on the contrary, the familiarity to the skin is too strong and the touch becomes worse. It becomes a tendency and is not preferable. Furthermore, in order to obtain a more excellent whitening effect, moisturizing effect and anti-inflammatory effect, the blending amount of the tea extract or tea powder is set to 5 to 30% by weight.

  Moreover, if the blending amount of the futan extract or fuin powder in the cosmetic is less than 0.1% by weight, a more excellent moisturizing effect and no binder effect can be obtained, whereas 50% by weight If it exceeds, the viscosity becomes too high, and so-called lumps are generated during stirring, making it difficult to homogenize and worsening the washing out property. Furthermore, in order to obtain a more excellent moisturizing effect and binder (tie) effect, the blending amount of the furan extract or furan powder is 0.5 to 10% by weight.

  Further, when the amount of the buckwheat extract or buckwheat powder in the cosmetic is less than 0.1% by weight, no thickening effect (sag prevention effect) is observed. On the other hand, when it exceeds 75% by weight, the viscosity becomes high, the dispersibility in water is small, and it is not uniform. Furthermore, in order to obtain a more excellent whitening effect and thickening effect, the blending amount of the buckwheat extract or buckwheat flour is 0.5 to 10% by weight.

  1,3-butylene glycol is used as a pack film antiseptic for adjusting the drying time of the pack film on the face. When a pack agent containing 1,3-butylene glycol is applied to the face, moisture is lost over time, the pack film contracts to give a feeling of tension on the skin, and an effect of tightening the skin is obtained. Since 1,3-butylene glycol has the physical property of retaining moisture, the drying time (that is, the usage time of the pack) can be adjusted depending on the blending amount.

  The cosmetic pack preparation of the present invention assumes that the pack use time is within 20 minutes. In this respect, if the blending amount of 1,3-butylene glycol exceeds 10% by weight, the drying time, that is, the pack use time exceeds 20 minutes, which is not practical. On the other hand, when the blending amount of 1,3-butylene glycol is less than 0.1% by weight, the antiseptic assisting effect cannot be obtained, and the stability of the pack agent is hindered. Therefore, the blending amount of 1,3-butylene glycol is 0.1 to 10% by weight.

  Usually, the cosmetic pack is used by being filled in a container. For this reason, when using the pack agent, various bacteria may be mixed into the pack container via the user's finger or air, and the bacteria may propagate (secondary contamination). Therefore, for the safety of the user, the pack agent needs to have a function of preventing secondary contamination.

  In this respect, methyl paraoxybenzoate has a preservative of preventing secondary contamination, but a stronger antiseptic can be obtained by combining with 1,3-butylene glycol. When the blending amount of 1,3-butylene glycol is 10% by weight (upper limit), sufficient preservative power can be obtained by setting the blending amount of methyl paraoxybenzoate to 0.01% by weight. Moreover, when the compounding quantity of 1, 3- butylene glycol is 0.1 weight% (lower limit), sufficient antiseptic power is acquired by mix | blending 0.5 weight% of methyl paraoxybenzoates.

  The cosmetic pack agent of the present invention is a component generally used as a cosmetic, that is, fats and oils, hydrocarbons, waxes, fatty acids, synthetic esters, alcohols, surfactants, thickeners, humectants.
