Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method for measuring a skin type based on one-shot, and a method for providing skin beauty information using the same. BACKGROUND ART < RTI ID = 0.0 >

Embodiments relate to a method of measuring a skin type based on one-way and a method of providing skin-beauty information using a skin type based on one-way.

The skin condition is complexly represented by the texture and color of the skin surface, the state of oil, the physiological properties such as hydration, and the pH of the skin surface. A relatively widespread method for measuring skin condition includes a method of observing the amount of oil on the skin surface through a sebum tape or patch test method and a method of measuring the oil content of a skin using a sebummeter and a moisture meter ) Is used to measure oil content and water content. These methods have been used by many researchers as a means to evaluate skin characteristics by sex, age, or race.

Individual skin types can be classified into three types: dry skin, neutral skin, and oily skin, or the above-mentioned three types can further include complex skin. It is generally classified into dry skin, neutral skin and oily skin as shown in Table 1 through measurement of oil content, water content and pH.

Oil content Moisture content pH Dry skin 0 to 10 0 to 40 pH = 6 Neutral skin 10 to 30 40 to 60 pH = 5 Oily skin 30 to 99 60 ~ 99 pH <5

On the other hand, as more and more consumers are pursuing oriental dietary habits that are natural-friendly and healing the origin, interest in Korean cosmetics is increasing for Koreans' skin instead of imported cosmetics for Westerners in cosmetics . According to the results of researches on the effects of seeking benefit factors and attitude variables influencing selection of oriental cosmetics brands, the pursuit of oriental cosmetics is, among other things, the pursuit of special functions among other factors such as brand seeking, Or brand choice rather than economical pursuit.

In order to satisfy the special functions of these herbal cosmetics, besides the effects of anti-aging, whitening, elasticity enhancement and moisturizing, which are possessed by ordinary cosmetics, there is a customer benefit that can satisfy the herb medicine efficacy of herbal medicines contained in herbal cosmetics need. However, conventional skin type determination of oily, neutral, and dry has limits to induce differentiated product selection and skin cosmetic information of only herbal cosmetics as compared with general cosmetics.

According to an aspect of the present invention, it is possible to provide a method of measuring a skin type of a customer according to a skin type based on a Korean traditional market. In addition, it is possible to provide a method of providing skin beauty information such as product selection information and skin care information to a customer in accordance with a skin type based on one-shot.

According to one embodiment, a method of measuring a skin type based on Han Kong comprises setting one or more indicators corresponding to at least one skin type based on one-way; Digitizing the information of the subject for each of the indicators; And comparing the numerical results for each of the indicators with each other to determine a skin type to which the subject belongs among the at least one skin type.

A method of providing skin beauty information using a skin type based on one-way according to one embodiment is a method of providing skin care information using a skin type based on one-way, providing a skin type to be measured, Lt; / RTI &gt;

According to one aspect of the present invention, a skin type of a customer can be measured by a skin type based on oriental style. The herbal-based skin type is more suitable for predicting the efficacy of herbal cosmetics containing herbal medicines compared with conventional skin type judgments made of oily, neutral or dry. Therefore, there is an advantage that skin care information such as product selection information and skin care information specialized for oriental cosmetics can be provided.

Hereinafter, embodiments will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. However, the present invention is not limited by the following examples.

FIG. 1 is a flow chart showing each step of a skin type measurement method based on Han-gang in accordance with an embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 1, one or more indicators may be set for one or more predetermined skin types based on one (S1). The one or more skin types may be predetermined based on one-way theories. In the present specification, examples using four determined skin types are exemplarily described, and each skin type is referred to as QH group, BH group, QC group and BC group. For example, the QH group, the BH group, the QC group, and the BC group may be the group of 气虛, hemorrhoids, 痰 痰, and umbilical blood, respectively, But the present invention is not limited thereto.

The one or more indicators set for each skin type may refer to the subject's information associated with each skin type. Each indicator may be any information available to determine which type of the various types of subjects the subject defines. In oriental theory, the type of subject can be identified based on the subject's physical and / or mental status. Thus, each indicator is not necessarily limited to physical information, but may be mental information such as the degree or nature of the stress.

In addition, when an arbitrary index is physical information, the index may be an oil amount, a moisture amount, a resilience, a pH, etc. of the subject's skin, but is not necessarily limited to an index directly related to the skin. For example, each indicator may be the presence or absence of the subject's appetite, fatigue, degree of glossiness of hairs, color of lips, and the like, but is not limited thereto.

Next, the subject information can be quantified for each of the set one or more indexes (S2). For example, the information of the subjects corresponding to the respective indicators can be numerically represented by a questionnaire survey of the oriental medicine specialist for the subject, a self-questionnaire of the subject, and / or a method of measuring the subject's skin by the device. It is not always necessary to carry out the examination by the medical specialist, the self-questionnaire of the subject, and the measurement by the device, and information of the subject can be obtained by any of these methods. In addition, a plurality of the above-described methods may be performed, and the results of the respective methods may be integrated to obtain information of the subject.

Hereinafter, a case in which the step S2 of digitizing the information of the subject for each index is performed by the self-questionnaire of the subject will be exemplified. First, subjects may be provided with questionnaires such as Table 2 below by questionnaire or other appropriate means for the subjects' self-questionnaire.

number Survey item Severity of symptoms selected from 1-5
1 if not present, 3 if there is little, 5 if very severe One 2 3 4 5 One I do not know the taste (taste). 2 I get tired after talking and talking. 3 I feel good about my usual fatigue. 4 I like to lie down because I have no energy. 5 It is annoying to talk because I have no energy. 6 If you take a lot of care, digestion is not good. 7 It takes a long time to bloom and digest after eating rice. 8 I get angry or irritable. 9 My breasts and flank are cramped so I can sigh. 10 I always use a lot of care. 11 I am sensitive and often stressed. 12 Illness changes with mood 13 It hurts here and there when I'm at home. 14 It is often messy. 15 I am good at car crash. 16 The color under the eyes is black. 17 When it rains or becomes cloudy, it gets heavier. 18 Have a rough face in the morning 19 It feels mild or hot in the afternoon or night. 20 The face is always red or red. 21 Lips and tongue dry and often soaked with saliva or water. 22 There is no blood under the eyes (conjunctiva) or lips. 23 The color of the nails is soft. 24 I can not sleep deeply. 25 I have a lot of dreams all night. 26 There is no gloss on hair and body hair. 27 The nails are weak and cracked and broken. 28 The heel is well split. 29 The skin is rough. 30 My mouth is dry. 31 The belly is hard and hurts when pressed. 32 My belly often pulls and hurts 33 My lips are dry and well stripped. 34 The lip color is dark. 35 Illness is mild during the day and severe during the night 36 My cramps are severe. 37 The amount of menstrual is more than others, and the color is dark. 38 There are fewer menstrual volumes and more black chunks.

Each item in Table 2 represents an index related to one of the skin types based on oriental medicine. For example, items 1 to 7 in Table 2 correspond to the QH group among the skin types based on one-shot, items 8 to 18 correspond to the QC group, items 19 to 30 correspond to the BH group, items 31 to 38 correspond to BC Group. The subjects can answer the questionnaire in Table 2 with a numerical value of 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 for each item to quantify the subject's information about the relevant indicator.

Each of the items of Table 2 described above is an example of indicators for determining a skin type based on one-shot. In another embodiment, a skin type of a subject may be determined using an indicator different from that shown in Table 2 .

In addition, as described above, in addition to the self-questionnaire of the subject, the skin type of the subject may be quantified through the questionnaire of the oriental medicine specialist. The medical history of the oriental medicine specialist may be performed on the basis of the subject's own questionnaire as described above using Table 2, or may be performed using other different indicators.

In one embodiment, an average can be calculated for each type of skin in the numerical results for each item in Table 2 (S3). The average of the skin types thus obtained corresponds to the number of subjects for the skin type. That is, the average of the items 1 to 7 in Table 2 corresponds to the QH group value, and the average of the items 8 to 18 corresponds to the QC group value. Likewise, the average of the items 19 to 30 corresponds to the BH group value, and the average of the items 31 to 38 corresponds to the BC group value. However, depending on the number of the indicators, the above-described average calculation step S3 may be omitted.

Next, the numerical results are compared with each other so that the subject can determine the corresponding skin type (S4). For example, the values of the respective skin types obtained in the average calculation step S3 described above may be compared with each other, and the skin type having the highest value may be determined as the skin type to which the subject belongs.

In one embodiment, step S2 of quantifying the subject's information for each index may be performed by measuring the subject's skin characteristics with the device in parallel with or instead of the self-survey. For example, skin properties can be measured using known devices capable of photographing the skin in a pigmentation mode or an optical mode. At this time, the indicator for each type of skin may be, but not limited to, sebum, oil content, blood flow, water content, elasticity, TEWL, dermis thickness and dermal density of the skin .

In this case, the measured values quantified by the device are compared with each other so that the subject can determine the corresponding skin type (S4). For example, the subject can determine the type of skin to be affected by the ratio between the moisture content, oil content and elasticity. Since the ratios of moisture content: oil content: elasticity degree are different for each skin type, the ratio can be classified according to the section corresponding to each skin type and the skin type of the subject can be determined according to the section to which the subject belongs.

For example, the average value of each type of skin moisture, oil content, and elasticity measured by a device from a plurality of subjects is shown in Table 3 below. Table 3 below is for illustrating skin type differences, and the values listed in Table 3 are merely illustrative and do not represent numerical values corresponding to each skin type.

Moisture content Oil content Elasticity Total sum QH group 41.7 41 38.3 121 QC group 41.4 39.8 39.2 120.4 BH group 40.1 38.9 39.5 118.5 BC County 37.3 37.6 42 116.9

2A to 2D are graphs showing the results shown in Table 3 for each skin type. As shown in FIGS. 2A to 2D, the ratios between the moisture content, the oil content and the elasticity are different from each other for each skin type, and thus the skin type to which the subject belongs can be determined by the ratio between the moisture content, the oil content and the elasticity measured from the subject .

In the above, the process of determining the subject's skin type based on the ratio between the moisture content, the oil content and the elasticity of the values measurable by the device has been described. However, this is illustrative and may also determine the subject's skin type by one or more other different measurements. Further, in addition to the measurement by the instrument as described above, the skin type may be determined by the questionnaire of the oriental medicine specialist and / or the self-questionnaire of the subject.

According to the embodiment described above, the subject information can be quantified with respect to indexes set for each type of skin based on oriental medicine, and the type of skin to which the subject belongs can be measured from the numerical results. The skin type measured based on oriental medicine is more suitable for predicting the efficacy of herbal cosmetics containing herbal medicines compared to the conventional dry, neutral and oily skin types, which will be described in detail later.

FIGS. 3 and 4 are graphs showing experimental results obtained by performing a skin type measurement method based on one-way according to one embodiment on a plurality of subjects. In the experiment described in the present specification, 25 healthy female subjects in their twenties were asked about 20? The skin type was measured based on one-shot after allowing the skin to have a predetermined adaptation period in a constant temperature and humidity room having a temperature around and a humidity of about 40%.

Fig. 3A is a graph showing numerical values for each skin type based on one subject of a subject. Fig. BH group showed the highest value, so the subject's skin type is BH group. FIG. 3B is a graph showing values of sebum, water content, blood flow, TEWL, dermis thickness, and dermis concavity measured using a device from the skin of the subject of FIG. The graph on the left side of each index shows the measured value of the subject, and the graph on the right shows the average value of all the subjects.

FIG. 4A is a graph showing the skin type-specific values based on one subject of another subject. FIG. The QH group showed the highest value, so that the subject's skin type was QH group. FIG. 4B is a graph showing the measured values of the subject's skin from the skin of the subject shown in FIG. 4A. The graph on the left side of each index shows the measured value of the subject, and the graph on the right shows the average value of all the subjects.

3B and 4B, the sebum levels of the subjects of FIG. 3 and the subjects of FIG. 4 are approximately 7 and 6, respectively. According to the conventional skin type, both subjects are classified into the dry skin group. However, it can be seen that the indexes of skin moisture, TEWL and dermis density are different from each other except for sebum.

3A and FIG. 4A, the skin type of the subject of FIG. 3 is the BH group, while the skin type of the subject of FIG. 4 is the QH group, and the skin types based on herbal form are different from each other. That is, according to the conventional skin type, both subjects are classified into the same dry skin group. However, according to one embodiment, when the skin type based on oriental medicine is applied, they are different from each other in BH group and QH group.

Table 4 below shows the results of measurement of skin type and numerical value based on herbal composition from a large number of subjects.

Since the sebum values of the subjects shown in Table 4 are all in the range of 0 to 10, according to the conventional skin type, all the subjects in Table 3 belong to the dry skin group. However, according to the skin type based on oriental medicine, 7 subjects 1, 3, 5, 8, 10, 11 and 12 belong to BH group and 5 subjects 2, 4, 6, 7 and 9 belong to QH group . That is, according to the conventional skin type, it can be understood that the skin type based on one-shot may be different even for the subjects belonging to the same dry skin group.

Table 5 below shows another result of measuring the number of skin types and sebum based on herbal composition from a large number of subjects.

number BH QH BC QC sebum One 3.090909 3 2.714286 3.034483 7 13 3.636364 3.4 1.214286 1.965517 15 14 4.090909 4 2.642857 2.344828 One 3 3.1 2.7 2.076923 1.896552 5 15 5.777778 5 3.5 3.724138 40 16 3.9 3.7 3.071429 3 0 5 3.090909 3 1.285714 1.344828 8 17 4.454545 4.4 2.785714 2.482759 18 18 3.363636 3.1 1.642857 2.310345 2 19 4.272727 4.1 3 3.137931 20 20 3.272727 1.6 1.714286 1.172424 One 21 2.090909 1.5 1.285714 1.310345 10 22 4.636364 3.9 3.285714 3.655172 2 11 4.454545 3.7 2.692308 3.413793 4 23 4.818182 4.4 One 2.068966 11

All of the subjects shown in Table 5 are subjects belonging to the BH group having the largest value of the BH group among the values of the skin type based on one-shot. However, according to the conventional skin type based on the sebum level, 10 subjects of 1, 14, 3, 16, 5, 18, 20, 21, 22 and 11 of the subjects belonged to the dry skin group and 13, 17, 19 And 23 subjects belong to the neutral skin group, and 15 subjects belong to the oily skin group. That is, according to the skin type based on oriental medicine, even subjects having the same skin type can belong to different skin groups according to the conventional skin type.

FIG. 5 is a graph showing the results of measuring the efficacy of a product containing a herbal moisturizing component for subjects belonging to the dry skin group according to the conventional skin type.

The two graphs in Fig. 5 show the average moisture content of the skin of the subjects before application of the product and after periodic application of the product for 8 weeks. The numbers on the graph (34.86728395 and 35.58657888) represent the average moisture content of the subjects' skin. As can be seen, the average moisture content increased by about 2.06% from 34.86728395 to 35.58657888 after 8 weeks of use.

FIG. 6 is a graph showing the results of measuring the efficacy of a product containing a herbal moisturizing component for subjects belonging to the same BH group among the skin types based on the herbal composition according to one embodiment.

As in Fig. 5, the two graphs in Fig. 6 show the average moisture content of the skin of the subjects before application of the product and after 8 weeks of periodic application, respectively, and the numbers (32.11111111 and 37.71111111) on each graph represent the water content. As can be seen, the average moisture content increased by about 17.43% from 32.11111111 to 37.71111111 as a result of using the product for 8 weeks.

5 and 6 are compared with the subjects classified into the same skin group according to the skin type of the prior art, it was found that, according to one embodiment, Was more prominent. Thus, it can be seen that one type of skin type is more suitable according to one embodiment than the conventional skin type in predicting the efficacy of a herbal product.

Therefore, the method of providing skin beauty information according to one embodiment can be performed using the skin type based on the one-time measured according to the above-described embodiment. For example, product selection information can be provided, such as recommending a product that is expected to be efficacious to a subject, depending on the skin type based on the subject's herbal medicine. In addition, depending on the type of skin based on the subject's herbal, a skin care method specialized for the skin type may be provided.
