Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a pack containing a brown algae powder and a pack for cosmetics containing the pack,

 The present invention relates to a cosmetic pack composition, and more particularly, to a pack composition containing a brown algae powder and a cosmetic composition comprising the brown algae powder and having an excellent effect on exfoliation and moisturization by physiologically active substances contained in brown algae, Pack product.

Interest in marine natural products has increased in the last 20 years. In particular, the study of extracting physiologically active substances from marine animals and plants has attracted much attention. Due to these efforts, research and development of many physiologically active natural products have been made from marine organisms. Among marine natural products, a considerable amount of bioactive substances have already been studied in seaweeds, and seaweed extracts have been widely and widely used.

In particular, large brown algae such as seaweed, kelp, and rhubarb are widely inhabited in the waters near Korea, and they are actually consumed as food. Studies on seaweed have been focused on the use of polysaccharides such as agar, alginate, carrageenin, and fucoidan, the use of salt amino acids such as sodium glutamate and sodium alginate, and the use of polyphenols.

In recent years, studies have been conducted to extract a small amount of physiologically active substance and utilize it as a medicine, a health supplement food, and a cosmetic product. Recently, commercialization of cosmetics such as skin protection and extract of whitening ingredients from moths and tits near Jeju Island is under development. Studies for extracting such physiologically active substances are mainly performed using various alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, and butanol, and the amount of the obtained physiologically active substance is considerably small. The algae residues from this process are no longer being exploited and are being discarded.

The residual algae that have been extracted with alcohols contain chlorophyll, various amino acids, small amount of starch, polyphenols, alginate which has a large amount of trace metals and heavy metal adsorption capacity And is being abandoned as waste. The amount of the remaining substance differs depending on the kind of the extracted alcohol and the heating condition, and the concentration is similar under a certain condition.

On the other hand, in general, a pack (or mask) for cosmetics refers to a product which is applied to the skin for a certain period of time, then dried and then removed, washed with water or a tissue, or made of a nonwoven sheet and attached to and removed from the skin. These functions and purpose of use, skin cleansing action, moisturizing action and blood circulation promoting action helps to keep skin beautiful and healthy.

Powder type is a powder type which is mixed with a diluent. Peel-off type is a peel-off type when a coating is formed after a certain time after application to the skin. Various types of products such as a wash-off type which is washed out with water, a tissue-off type which is removed by a tissue, and a sheet type which is a non-woven type are commercially available.

Until now, peel-off type pack cosmetics have been produced in the form of a peelable pack containing polyvinyl alcohol for the purpose of cleansing and moisturizing the face, which is excellent in terms of stability and ease of use, It has a disadvantage that it takes a long time to use because the effect is slow and the drying speed is slow.

Therefore, a wash-off pack and a peel-off pack manufactured based on clay (bentonite, kaolin, talc, etc.) as a means for improving the drying speed and suppressing excess sebum secretion, A wash-off pack which is washed out after the application of a pack contains a large amount of oil and wax, which shows insufficient sebum deterring ability and requires a large amount of dispersant, And the peeling type pack containing clay is excellent in easiness of use and drying speed but has a disadvantage that the smell of polyvinyl alcohol and other raw material base which is a dispersant film forming material is large.

In addition, the heavy metals contained in the cosmetics used in our daily life are becoming a serious problem. Table 1 shows the degree of heavy metal pollution (unit: μg / g) of cosmetics distributed in Korea. Although not totally serious, it contains various heavy metals and causes accumulation of heavy metals in the skin through various routes .

Although heavy metals are accumulated on the skin by the use of cosmetics as such, the content of heavy metals accumulated in the skin due to the yellow dust in spring is also expected to be considerable. Therefore, cosmetics packs useful for removing heavy metals accumulated in the skin through daily life The need for the

Although the terms used in the present invention have been selected as general terms that are widely used at present, there are some terms selected arbitrarily by the applicant in a specific case. In this case, the meaning described or used in the detailed description part of the invention The meaning must be grasped.

Hereinafter, the technical structure of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments.

However, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described herein but may be embodied in other forms.

The present invention relates to a pack composition comprising a seaweed, in particular brown algae powder and ascorbic acid, in a typical pack base, wherein the pack composition preferably comprises 1 to 12% by weight of brown algae powder, 1 to 3% by weight of ascorbic acid, And a pack base.

First, brown algae contains various physiologically active substances. In particular, sodium alginate, which is abundantly contained in brown algae, is an excellent component for heavy metal adsorption. Alginic acid is known to selectively adsorb heavy metals, especially Pb>Cu>Cd>Ni>Co> Zn. It is known that the adsorption capacity of heavy metals of alginic acid is about 50-99%.

In particular, it has been reported that the adsorption of alginic acid to heavy metals is improved to be less acidic than that of strong acidic ones. The present invention also includes ascorbic acid in order to improve the adsorption of heavy metals of alginic acid contained in brown algae powder . In addition, ascorbic acid itself has an extremely advantageous ingredient for skin care such as whitening and antioxidative action, and has a problem of poor stability. When used in the same manner as the brown algae powder according to the present invention, physiologically active substances such as alginic acid , The stability of ascorbic acid itself is improved and the destruction rate is slowed. In addition, the pack composition itself can be prevented from being rotted, and an excellent synergistic effect can be obtained if the brown algae powder and ascorbic acid are used together. In addition, alginic acid, which is abundant in seaweeds, has a fairly good absorbency and can supply water to the skin continuously.

On the other hand, as described above, the bioactive substance extracted by the alcohol extraction from the brown algae and the residue of the brown algae extract, which is discarded, still contains a large amount of alginic acid and the physiologically active substance useful for skin such as fiber remains. The brown algae powder contained can be prepared from brown algae or brown algae extract residues. In particular, FIG. 1 shows a process of preparing the brown algae powder of the present invention without extracting the bioactive material from the brown algae and discarding the brown algae extraction residue The preparation of the brown algae powder of the present invention will be described in detail.

First, the brown algae are washed three times with fresh water to remove the salt contained in the brown algae.

Next, when a physiologically active substance contained in brown algae, for example, chlorophyll, pigment or amino acid, is to be extracted, it is separated into two steps by extracting chlorophyll and amino acid by heating twice for 3-4 hours in the presence of methanol or ethanol .

Then, filtration is carried out to remove methanol or ethanol together with water.

The seaweed obtained in the above step 3 was frozen at -30 ° C or lower and lyophilized or dried at 60 ° C or lower to remove water and alcohols contained in the brown algae.

After the fourth step, the dried brown algae were pulverized to a particle size of 1-100 mu m (average 20 mu m) to obtain brown algae powder.

The prepared brown algae powder and pack base were put into a homogenizer or a high-speed stirrer to homogeneously mix to form a cream-like shape, followed by cooling and aging at 2-5 ° C for 3 days to remove the unpleasant smell of seaweed to obtain a brown algae powder- .

The brown algae powder contained in the pack composition of the present invention may be used by directly pulverizing the brown algae without performing steps 2 and 3 of FIG. 1, and in some cases, the brown algae extract residue after the extraction of the physiological active material is started As a material, the brown algae powder obtained by carrying out the above step 4 may be used. In particular, when the brown algae powder contained in the pack composition of the present invention is prepared with the residue of the brown algae extract, the problem caused by the fragrance unique to seaweeds compared with brown algae powder produced from brown algae including alginic acid, fiber, inorganic substance, fucoidan, May be further reduced.

In addition, the brown algae powder contained in the brown alga powder-containing pack composition of the present invention is not limited in its use as long as it is a brown algae containing a large amount of alginic acid, but is preferably selected from seaweed, kelp or rhubarb.

Seaweed and kelp show differences in composition depending on the temperature and wave strength of the area where they grow, and the use of cultured fish may reduce the unevenness and cost of the composition. In the examples of the present invention, It is southern seaweed. In particular, kelp contains the largest amount of sidium aliginate among seaweeds and contains more seaweed than seaweed.

The rhubarb is very common in the eastern coast of Korea, especially in the Ulleung dynasty. However, rhubarb has a lot of mucin derived from alginic acid, and it is expected that it will have many effects on skin moisturizing, and it has more fibrous substances than seaweed and kelp. The rhubarb used in the examples of the present invention was collected from the Ulleungdo area. Particularly, when using rhubarb as a brown algae powder contained in the pack composition of the present invention, if a hub powder and / or arabic gum are further used as a base for adhering a fibrous substance contained in rhubarb, It will play a role and maintain a fairly good viscosity.

In addition, the pack base used in the brown algae-containing pack composition of the present invention is not limited to the use of a pack base commercially available in the cosmetics industry as long as the content of the alcohol ingredient is extremely lower than that of a usual pack base Glycerin, starch, sodium dodecyl sulfate, titanium dioxide (TiO ₂ ), purified water, ethanol, pigment, methyl paraben, and phenoxy ethanol. It is preferable to use a pack base containing

More preferably, the pack composition of the present invention is one in which each component contained in the pack base is blended in a predetermined blending ratio, and in particular, 5.1 to 9% by weight of glycerin, 1 to 4% by weight of starch, 3.4 to 9 wt.% Of titanium dioxide (TiO ₂ ), 61 to 91 wt.% Of purified water, 2 to 4.5 wt.% Of ethanol, 0.2 to 0.5 wt.% Of a pigment, 1 to 2.3 wt.% Of sodium dodecylsulfate, 0.1 to 0.3% by weight of methyl paraben, and 0.1 to 0.3% by weight of phenoxy ethanol.

In addition, the pack composition of the present invention may further include a hub powder and / or arabic gum considering the functional activity, viscosity control, and aroma of the physiologically active substance depending on the type of brown algae contained therein. The herb powder is prepared by drying the desired herb among several kinds of herbs such as lavender, rosemary, lemon balm, mint, etc. and grinding it to a size of 100 mesh or less.
