Description

  The present invention relates to a composition containing p-coumaric acid. The composition of the present invention can be used as a cosmetic or a skin external preparation.

  p-Coumaric acid (4-hydroxycinnamic acid, β- (4-hydroxyphenyl) acrylic acid) is known for its melanin-inhibiting action, ultraviolet-absorbing action, antiseptic action, Maillard reaction inhibition, etc. Attempts have been made to formulate or external preparations for skin (Patent Documents 1 to 3), but they have low solubility in water and are hardly soluble in oils.

  For example, Patent Document 4 describes a cosmetic characterized by blending 0.1 to 20% by weight of 4-hydroxycinnamic acid and cigrodextrin, and the cigrodextrin is composed of 4-hydroxycinnamic acid. It is thought that it has the action of forming an inclusion complex, improving the solubility of 4-hydroxycinnamic acid in water and blocking it from being decomposed, and increasing the apparent molecular weight due to the complexation It is described that percutaneous absorption is suppressed. Patent Document 5 describes a cosmetic comprising 0.1 to 20% by weight of 4-hydroxycinnamic acid and a weakly basic inorganic salt or weakly basic organic salt. It is described that a weakly basic inorganic salt or a weakly basic organic salt as an agent has an action of stably dissolving 4-hydroxycinnamic acid in water.

  However, in these conventional methods, the temporal stability of p-coumaric acid was not sufficient. According to the study of the present inventor, p-coumaric acid cannot be dissolved and contained in an aqueous base or an oil base simply by mixing, and it can be temporarily added by mechanical force or heating. Even when dissolved and contained, yellowing or precipitation may be observed over time. It was found that the stability at high temperature was particularly poor.

  Cosmetics are applied directly to the skin of the face and hands, are kept applied, and are repeatedly used over a relatively long period. For this reason, it is important not only to maintain the quality but also to be stable without any change in appearance from the viewpoint of psychological security. In addition, the beauty of the appearance and luxury can bring about psychological and mental effects. In recent years, the variation of cosmetic containers has diversified, and containers that show their contents are often used. Attention should also be paid to the appearance. Therefore, when p-coumaric acid is contained, not only the viewpoint that yellowing and precipitation can cause deterioration of the function of the component, but also a policy that can ensure stability conforming to the appearance standard as a cosmetic by an appropriate system. It is desirable to take

  The inventor has intensively studied a stabilization method in a solution composition of p-coumaric acid. As a result, it has been found that yellowing and precipitation can be suppressed to such an extent that the specific components are used in combination, and the present invention has been completed.
