Description

COSMETIC COMPOSITION COMPRISING NATURAL MINERALS [0002]

The present invention relates to a cosmetic composition containing natural minerals, and more particularly to a cosmetic composition containing natural minerals containing quartz, quartz, toprakes, tourmaline, charcoal, perlite and diatomaceous earth, And the preservability and stability of the cosmetic composition are improved.

Skin is a very important tissue that directly touches the external environment and protects the human body and has biochemical and physical functions. It is roughly divided into three parts: epidermis, dermis and hypodermis. The skin consists of several layers of cells covering and protecting the keratin and collagen fiber proteins that form the skeleton of the skin structure. In addition, our skin is in direct contact with the external environment, so it reacts very sensitively to external stimuli and changes to protect the internal environment of our body.

In addition, various physical and chemical changes occur in human skin during aging process. Aging promotes aging by damaging cells and tissues as it enters the body with ultraviolet rays, stress, disease states, environmental factors, wounds, and aging. Lipids, proteins, polysaccharides and nucleic acids, which are major constituents of the skin, are oxidized to destroy skin cells and tissues, resulting in skin aging.

In order to delay the aging process and prevent the skin from being damaged, it is important to prevent the transdermal water loss to ensure sufficient moisturizing and regenerate skin cells and tissues to minimize the progress of aging.

On the other hand, it is important to store the cosmetics directly applied to the skin without deterioration for a certain period of time. Cosmetics are mainly composed of water or oil. Glycerin or sorbitol, which is a carbon source of microorganisms, and amino acid derivatives and proteins, such as nitrogen sources, are mixed therein. Therefore, microorganisms such as fungi and bacteria penetrate easy to do. Cosmetic products have a longer service life than food products, and are likely to be contaminated by fingers during use, and measures are required to prevent such deterioration, deterioration, and the like. Most cosmetics use chemical preservatives to prevent such deterioration. Chemical preservatives can cause skin toxicity and cancer if they are used or used for a long time. Accordingly, in recent years, various natural products and manufacturing methods have been developed to minimize such chemical preservatives.

Water activity is an indicator that can be used as a main factor of deterioration and deterioration of a substance. It means the ratio between the water vapor pressure of pure water at the same temperature and the water vapor pressure of water present in the food. That is, it is means for displaying the intensity of the water associated with the target component. Especially in the field of food, since water becomes a main factor of denaturation and deterioration of food, it is necessary to reduce the water activity to a level below the packing limit and to package it in foods that require preservation. Water activity in food affects the growth and growth of microorganisms, enzymatic action and various chemical reactions, so it has a great influence on the quality of food. If such water activity is applied to cosmetics to lower the water activity of cosmetic ingredients, microbial propagation can be minimized and the preservation and safety of cosmetics can be improved.

A number of compositions are known in which a natural or other component is added in place of a chemical preservative to enhance the storage stability of the cosmetic. Korean Patent No. 10-0787634 (cosmetic composition having a preservative activity) discloses a cosmetic composition having an antiseptic activity by containing extracts of Ghazam, Opium, Cinnamon, and Saury oil, and Korean Patent No. 10-1062660 , A cosmetic composition comprising caprylilyl glycol, ethylhexyl glycerin and a yellowish white extract to enhance the preservative effect and increase the stability and storage stability of the composition.

On the other hand, various natural minerals present in the natural world exhibit far-infrared ray emission, anion emission, antibacterial property depending on the kinds of minerals, and attempts have been made to apply them to skin cosmetics in appropriate combination. For example, Korean Patent No. 10-0985143 (cosmetic composition for improving wrinkles containing a mineral complex component) and Korean Patent No. 10-0716230 (powder cosmetic composition having improved dispersibility and antioxidative effect) are known .

However, there has not yet been disclosed an example of replacing the preservative effect and improving the storage stability by controlling the water activity of the cosmetic composition while exhibiting the skin improving effect including the natural mineral of a specific composition.

Hereinafter, the configuration of the present invention will be described in more detail.

In one aspect, the invention relates to a cosmetic composition comprising natural minerals containing quartz, quartz, topaz, tourmaline, blast furnace, perlite, and diatomaceous earth.

The composition of the present invention is characterized by simultaneously containing quartz, quartz, topaz, tourmaline, petite, perlite and diatomaceous earth as natural minerals. Hereinafter, the natural mineral of the present invention having such a composition will be referred to as "T133".

Crystal, which is a natural mineral used in the present invention, is one of colorless transparent quartz, and is a crystal of hexagonal columnar shape, and its main component is silicon dioxide. The crystal is excellent in the far infrared ray emissivity and plays a role of activating the cell movement by emitting the growth rays.

Quartz is a mineral belonging to the hexagonal system and its chemical composition is SiO ₂ . Quartz is chemically very pure, with almost no other components, whereas most of the ammonites are complex solid solutions. It is mainly composed of hexagonal columnar crystals, which may be massive, sometimes produced as granular, sandy, and other minerals, especially calcite, barite, Which is also known as a crystal. Quartz is excellent in far-infrared radiation and anion emission effect, and has antibacterial action.

Topaz is an orthotropic mineral with a crystal structure similar to that of olivine, and is also called topaz. Topaz contains the calcium, iron and magnesium necessary for the human body, so it has excellent far-infrared radiation effect. It removes unnecessary waste materials through the natural magnetic field and activates the vital rhythm by reducing the acidified blood to alkaline.

Tourmaline is a minerals belonging to the hexagonal system with crystal structure like crystal and is also called tourmaline. Electricity is generated by friction, and this name is attached because both sides of the heat are charged with positive and negative. Tourmaline contains magnesium, iron, boric acid, silicon and calcium, activates cells, helps circulation, and strengthens skin by antimicrobial action.

Loess stone is a paleoenvironmental sediment that has solidified yellow clay loess for hundreds of millions of years, and is rougher and more viscous than kaolin or clay. It is pale yellow or pink. The main component of the petite is fine particles containing many minerals such as silica, alumina, iron, magnesium, sodium and carly. It is a living soil with beneficial microorganisms and many minerals. It emits a large amount of far infrared rays and anions.

Perlite is a glassy volcanic rock containing less than 4% moisture and belongs to alkaline rocks such as rhyolite. It is also used as a fire retardant.

Diatomaceous earth is a soft rock or soils made of diatomaceous earth (remains), produced by seawater and freshwater, and good quality contains more than 90% of silicon dioxide. Diatomaceous earth is a collection of sediments consisting of a floating algae shell called diatom, 50 to 100 microns in average size. Diatomaceous earth emits far-infrared rays and emits negative ions to purify blood and has high antibacterial activity.

Since the cosmetic composition of the present invention contains quartz, quartz, topaz, tourmaline, charcoal, perlite, and diatomaceous earth simultaneously as natural minerals, the beneficial bioactivity of each of the seven kinds of minerals is maximized, Prevention and whitening effect.

The natural minerals emit far-infrared rays, emit anions, and emit a certain amount of energy. Far infrared rays are those with long wavelengths of infrared rays. Infrared rays are a type of electromagnetic waves that have longer wavelengths than the red region of the visible ray and have a large thermal effect. Far infrared rays are invisible, well absorbed into materials, and characterized by strong resonance and resonance of organic compound molecules. Generally, light has a good reflectivity when its wavelength is short, and it has a property of being absorbed when it reaches an object if it has a long wavelength. Therefore, a person's body is also warmed by this infrared ray because of its strong penetration.

The human body is composed of about 60% moisture and substances necessary for life phenomena such as proteins, fats, carbohydrates, minerals, hormones, enzymes and neural tissues. By activating these substances at the molecular level, far infrared rays generate heat energy in the cell activity process, and this heat activates all activities inside the human body. This thermal effect extends the capillary blood vessels to help blood circulation and cell tissue formation, and to exhibit antibacterial activity against various bacteria. In addition, when it comes into contact with moisture and protein molecules that make up cells, it shakes cells 2,000 times a minute to activate cell tissue to prevent aging and promote new metabolism. That is, when the far-infrared rays are illuminated, the far-infrared rays having the same frequency as the intrinsic vibration of various atoms and atoms in the human body cause resonance. Far infrared rays affect the cells that are the most basic tissues of the body, promote blood circulation, and enhance the body's self-defense ability, thereby improving overall skin.

In the present invention, the natural mineral acts not only directly on the human skin, but also acts to improve the preservability and stability of the cosmetic by lowering the water activity of the cosmetic itself.

The water activity is an indicator which can be used as a main factor of deterioration or deterioration of a substance. It is generally used in the field of food, which means the ratio between the water vapor pressure of pure water and the water vapor pressure of water present in the food at the same temperature. That is, it is means for displaying the intensity of the water associated with the target component. Such water activity can be applied not only to food but also to cosmetics requiring preservation. If the water activity of the cosmetic is lowered below the limit, microorganism growth can be controlled in the product to prevent deterioration and deterioration.

 Most bacteria, for example, can not grow below 0.91 water activity, and most fungi stop growing at water activities below 0.80. By measuring the water activity, it is possible to predict the possibility of alteration by various microorganisms. Water activity determines the minimum limit of effective water content that affects microbial growth in water, not the moisture itself. Water activity not only affects microbiological alteration, but also affects the stability of the useful ingredient of the cosmetic and the persistence of the functional efficacy. Generally, the higher the water activity, the higher the free water ratio in the product, which makes the microbial utilization easier and the decay easier.

In the present invention, the lowering of the water activity can be achieved by enhancing the ratio of the number of binding of the cosmetic in the product and lowering the ratio of the free water. The free water refers to water which freely moves in the product and can be easily separated from cosmetic ingredients through external change (squeezing, cutting, pressing), has a large surface tension and viscosity, and has a freezing point of about 0 ° C. This free water acts as a solvent for the solute and is used for microbial propagation. The combined water means water which is bound to the cosmetic ingredient itself and is not easily separated by external changes. The number of bonds is usually higher than water and the freezing point is below -18 ℃. The coupled water does not act as a solvent and can not be used for microbial propagation.

Specifically, the natural minerals contained in the composition emit energy of a certain size by simultaneously containing quartz, quartz, topaz, tourmaline, blast furnace, perlite and diatomaceous earth. When such a composition is treated on a cosmetic material containing a target substance, for example, water, the natural mineral of the composition cuts off the hydrogen bond in the water molecule group existing in a free water state in the product through energy radiation, ₂ < / RTI > O). In this way, the sub-surface water molecules separated from the water molecule group are hydrolyzed with the functional groups present in the cosmetic component to form a bonding water, which improves the ratio of bound water in the product to lower the water activity.

Therefore, cosmetics manufactured using natural minerals of the present invention can control microbial growth even when chemical preservatives that may cause skin toxicity are not added or minimized, so that they can be stably stored for a long time without deterioration or deterioration.

In the present invention, the quartz, topaz, and tourmaline which constitute the natural minerals are predominantly involved in the separation process of the water molecule group in the target material, and the hulls have antimicrobial and antifungal activity, while the perlite and diatomaceous earth are porous materials It is involved in the adsorption function of harmful components.

Wherein the natural minerals are selected from the group consisting of 5 to 20% by weight of quartz, 15 to 35% by weight of quartz, 10 to 25% by weight of topaz, 1 to 10% by weight of tourmaline, 10 to 30% by weight of petite, 5 to 15% by weight of perlite, Preferably 14 to 26% by weight of feldspar, 8 to 13% by weight of perlite, preferably 6 to 14% by weight of quartz, 18 to 29% by weight of quartz, 12 to 21% By weight and diatomaceous earth 7-11% by weight. The overall improvement effect of the skin is enhanced in such a content range, and particularly, the effect of moisturizing the skin, preventing aging and improving the wrinkles is excellent. In addition, the effect of lowering the water activity of the cosmetic product and the antibacterial effect are maximized within such a content range, and the effect of improving the preservability and stability of the product is further improved.

In the present invention, the natural mineral (T133) may be used in powder form in terms of functional efficiency. For example, in a powder state having a particle size of 0.01 to 100 mu m, and preferably, a particle size of 0.1 to 10 mu m. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. In this range of size, it is possible to maximize the effect of enhancing the preservation and stability of the product by reducing the skin improvement effect and the water activity.

The natural minerals may have a specific surface area of 500 to 5,000 m 2 / g and preferably have a specific surface area of 1,000 to 2,000 m 2 / g. However, the natural minerals may be adjusted in size depending on the type and application of the application formulations It is not limited to the above numerical range.

The preparation of the natural mineral (T133 powder) in the powder state can be produced through an air-jet mill powder system. Specifically, a jet air stream formed by a supersonic high-speed fluid technique causes collision and friction of raw materials to complete primary ultrafine grinding, and the remaining fine grinding raw material is recovered by a classification system and re-pulverized until the target particle size is reached, Ultra-fine powder can be produced through the latest Air-Jet Mill powder system which acquires powder material. Figure 1 shows a basic structure and processing plant for implementing an air jet mill powder system.

The natural minerals may be contained in an amount of 0.0001 to 30% by weight, preferably 0.01 to 10% by weight, based on the total weight of the cosmetic composition, but are not limited thereto. In such a content range, it is possible to expect an appropriate level of skin improvement effect, cosmetic storage and formulation stability without skin irritation.

As shown in Table 8, the cream of Preparation Example 4 having the natural mineral composition of the present invention is superior to the cream of Preparation Example 5 (natural minerals out of the composition range) and Production Example 6 (natural mineral free cream) Can be confirmed.

Test Example 8. Evaluation of Skin Elasticity Enhancing Effect

The skin elasticity enhancing effect of the T133 natural mineral cosmetic of the present invention was evaluated. (A, B and C) were divided into three groups (A, B, and C) of 30 healthy women over 20 years of age (average age 36 years) under the conditions of temperature 24 to 26 캜 and humidity 75% - Cream of Preparation Example 5, C Group-Preparation Example 6 was applied for 12 weeks twice a day (morning and evening) around the eye margin, and then the skin elasticity was measured using a skin elasticity analyzer (Cutometer MPA580, Conrage + Khazaka, Germany) Skin elasticity was measured. The test results are described as R2 (R2 (12 weeks) -R2 (0 weeks)) of the cutometer MPA580. The R2 value indicates the property of gross elasticity, and the results are shown in Table 9 below.

Skin elasticity Production Example 4 0.067 Production Example 5 0.043 Production Example 6 0.013

As shown in Table 9, the cream of Preparation Example 4 having the natural mineral composition of the present invention has a much higher skin elasticity enhancement effect than the cream of Preparation Example 5 (natural minerals out of the composition range) and Preparation Example 6 (natural mineral free cream) .

Test Example 9. Evaluation of skin color improvement effect

The skin color improvement effect of the T133 natural mineral cosmetic of the present invention was evaluated. The subjects were 30 healthy 30 - to 45 - year - old women. First, 10 women were divided into three groups (A, B and C), and the creams of Group A - Preparation Example 4, Group B - Production Example 5, and Group C - Production Example 6 were mixed twice daily ) For 2 months. Before the experiment started, the L value of the skin was measured using a Chromameter (CR-300, Minolta) at the facial area. Immediately after the experiment was completed, the skin brightness (L value ) Were measured. The increase rate of the skin brightness by the Chromameter is the average value of the skin L value after use for the L value before use of the cream, and the measurement results are shown in Table 10 below.

Increase rate of skin brightness (L value) (%) Production Example 4 1.7 Production Example 5 0.9 Production Example 6 0.2
