Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail so that those skilled in the art can easily implement the present invention.

In the present specification, the "cosmetic composition applicator" is also referred to as a cosmetic composition application means or applicator, puff or cosmetic sponge. "Cosmetic composition applicator" is the broadest means for delivering any substance or ingredient to the skin, including all means of application such as puffs, tips, brushes, and the like.

As used herein, the term "sponge" is a material capable of supporting any material or component that may be exemplified by the composition, and is made of rubber, fibers, or resins as sponges, and may temporarily absorb, support, and discharge the cosmetic composition. It means to be. For example, the sponge means that a foam is formed by foaming polyurethane, rubber, vinyl, etc. in a dry or wet foaming manner and then solidifying the foam.

As used herein, the term "durability" refers to the extent to which the sponge remains intact without melting, tearing or expanding when it is left under constant temperature and humidity, and / or taking the cosmetic composition from the carrier or using it on the skin. The degree to which the sponge is subjected to repeated contact or force when delivered.

As used herein, "antibacterial activity" and "antibacterial function" means a property resistant to contamination by bacteria and fungi, and includes both the action of killing microorganisms or inhibiting the growth and development of microorganisms. Since the sponge is not a cosmetic, there is no restriction on the antimicrobial substance. However, since the sponge is used together with the cosmetic composition or the cosmetic, the antimicrobial substance exhibiting the antimicrobial power while satisfying the safety standard of the cosmetic is extremely limited.

Therefore, one embodiment of the present invention is isopropyl methyl phenol (Isopropyl methyl phenol), phenoxyethanol (Phenoxyethanol), chloroxylenol (Chloroxylenol), ethylhexylglycerin (Ethylhexylglycerin), glyceryl caprylate (Glyceryl caprylate), Cosmetic application comprising a sponge comprising at least one antimicrobial material selected from the group consisting of thymol, calcium phosphate-silver compound complex and silver ion-silicate complex Provide a phrase.

The following Comparative Examples and Examples are the same applicator except for the density of Example 3 containing isopropyl methylphenol (IPMP) as an antimicrobial substance in [Test Example 2].

The apparent density was measured by the apparent density in accordance with JIS K 7222.

Tensile strength and elongation were measured in the same manner as in [Test Example 3].

The delivery rate was calculated according to the following equation from the following absorption amount and discharge rate, and was evaluated to be excellent because it was excellent in 30% or more.

The absorption amount was obtained by pressing the carrier having the cosmetic composition supported by the puff-type applicator at a mass of 1 kgf, taking the cosmetic composition, and measuring the amount of bleeding into each applicator. The discharge amount was measured when the applicator taking the cosmetic composition was applied to the artificial leather 8cm X 8cm with a force of 1kgf mass.

[Equation 1]

The feeling of use evaluated the touch feeling felt at the time of application and the state which the cosmetic composition was apply | coated to the said artificial leather. (◎: Very good, ○: Good, △: Normal, X: Bad)

Test Example 6 Makeup Effect According to Applicator Hardness

The cosmetic delivery power and the feeling of cushion according to the hardness of the cosmetic composition applicator according to an embodiment of the present invention were evaluated as follows.

The following Comparative Examples and Examples are the same applicator (urethane sponge for applicator) except the hardness of Example 3 containing isopropyl methylphenol (IPMP) as an antimicrobial substance in [Test Example 2].

Hardness was measured when measured with a high molecular weight ASKER (manufacturer) rubber hardness meter type F (Type F), and the hardness before the cosmetic composition was absorbed into the cosmetic composition applicator was measured.

Makeup delivery power was evaluated in the same manner as in [Test Example 5].

Cushion was analyzed by clinical evaluation of 20 puff users. The evaluation was based on the degree of makeup and cushioning on the skin. If the cushion is low, it is not soft and makeup is not good.
