Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to cosmetics containing deep sea water, which can maintain and improve the essential performance of the skin such as moist feeling, and can impart moisture retention and other properties to the skin and the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Cosmetics are compositions composed of various raw materials. Effective effects are obtained by the action of the individual components on the skin, and water is also an important raw material. In general, purified water from which trace amounts of impurities in ppm units or ppb units have been removed by ion exchange treatment is used as water as a raw material component of cosmetics. Cosmetic water has a role as a medium for dissolving other ingredients and a water supply to the stratum corneum (a thin layer occupying the outermost layer of the skin) (for example, edited by Japan Cosmetic Engineers Association, Increased revision of “Latest Cosmetic Science” (Yakuji Nippo, published in 1992), p. The skin stratum corneum contains, as a main component, a water-soluble component (natural moisturizing factor (NMF)) which is an amino acid and its metabolite, and contains water in which various kinds of electrolytes such as salts and amino acids are dissolved. There is no argument that the condition has a significant effect on the moist and supple feeling of the skin.

[0003] However, the appropriate value of the water content of the stratum corneum is generally about 10 to 20%, but a different value has also been proposed. Utility Evaluation / Measurement Method ”No. 13 (199
4), p3, "Takeo Mitsui" edited by "New Cosmetics" (Nanzando,
1994, p. 26). The specific causal relationship between the moistness and suppleness of the skin and the type and amount of electrolyte ions in the stratum corneum is unknown, and water or an aqueous solution other than purified water is added to cosmetics and electrolyte ions or the like are externally added. The specific causal relationship when adding is also unknown.

[0004]

Conventionally, a proposal has been made to add deep-sea water to cosmetics as an aqueous solution other than purified water (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 10-182346,
See JP-A-11-12154). JP-A-10-1
Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 82346 (hereinafter sometimes referred to as Reference 1) is a cosmetic which improves the effect of a fungicide contained by adding deep ocean water.
Describes an example of cosmetics to which deep seawater collected from a sea area of 1,000 to 4,000 meters off Toyama Bay is added. The proposed cosmetic contains 0.001 to 3% by weight of fungicide (based on the total weight of the cosmetic) and 0.1% of deep sea water.
1 to 85% by weight (based on the total weight of the cosmetic). In the cited publication 1, creams, shampoos,
For examples of liquid cosmetics similar to water, such as lotions, packs, cleansers, and hair tonics, 5 deep ocean waters are used.
Examples are described in which ８５85% by weight (based on the total weight of the cosmetic) is blended. Further, in the example of the liquid cosmetic similar to water in the cited publication 1, the deep sea water is approximately 10 to 90% by weight based on the total weight of purified water.
It is blended to a certain degree.

The cited reference 1 discloses that even when the deep sea water occupies most of the total weight of the lotion, a refreshing feeling and a mild feeling can be obtained by applying the lotion to the skin. There is an example of a lotion that is effective for the acne prevention effect (see Example 4 of Citation 1). The fungicides used in the examples of the cited publication 1 include eucalyptus extract, kudin extract, and isopropylmethylpheno-
, Bis (2-pyridylthio-1-oxide) zinc, prickle extract, lavender extract or ginger extract, etc., which are used in combination with deep sea water to have antibacterial properties, acne prevention, dandruff prevention, acne or It is said that the prevention of pruritus is improved (see pages 4 to 6 of Citation 1). However, Patent Literature 1 does not mention at all about the relationship between the improvement of the bactericidal property of cosmetics and the characteristics of deep sea water, and applies deep skin water, which accounts for most of the total weight of cosmetics, to the skin. However, there is no mention of the reason for giving a refreshing feeling and a mild feeling.

[0006] Table 1 shows the analysis values of the salt and nutrients of the deep sea water used in the example of the cited publication 1 (see Table 1 on page 3 of the cited publication 1).

[0007]

【table 1】

Next, a proposal in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 11-12154 (hereinafter sometimes referred to as cited reference 2)
It is a cosmetic product in which the deep sea water is added to enhance the mineral content of the cosmetic product and improve the moisture retention. In the cited publication 2, it is considered that the amount of the deep sea water to be incorporated into the cosmetic is 0.00001 to 100% by weight (based on the total weight of the cosmetic) (see the lower left column of page 3 of the cited publication 2). An aerosol product of deep sea water is mentioned as a specific example of a cosmetic product consisting of deep sea water only (see the lower part of the left column of page 3 of Citation 2). In addition, Patent Literature 2 proposes the use of concentrated deep seawater concentrated at a high concentration (Reference 2).
On page 3, right column). However, in the cited publication 2, there is an example in which 1.25 to 25.0% by weight (based on the total weight of cosmetics) is blended with deep ocean water using deep ocean water collected from a depth of 320m off Muroto, Kochi Prefecture. It is only listed.

Further, in the cited reference 2, deep ocean water is blended in a proportion of 2 to 29% by weight (based on the total weight of purified water and deep ocean water) in terms of quantitative relationship with purified water ( See Examples 1 to 8 of Citation 2). Table 2 shows the concentrations of salts and nutrients in deep sea water collected off the coast of Muroto, Kochi Prefecture, which is used in the example of Reference 2 (see Table 1 on page 3 of Reference 2). ).

[0010]

[Table 2]

The proposals of the cited publications 1 and 2 have the same idea of adding deep ocean water to cosmetics, but differ in the purpose of adding deep ocean water and the recognition of the effects obtained by deep ocean water. ing. However, in the cited publications 1 and 2, there is no mention of the relationship between the characteristics of deep sea water and the effects of cosmetics. The effects of water properties on the skin and the effects of cosmetics are unknown, and the mixing of deep sea water with cosmetics has, for example, the following problems (1) to (4).

(1) In the proposals of the cited publications 1 and 2,
It is stated that the deep sea water can be incorporated at 85% by weight or 100% by weight based on the total weight of the cosmetic, and as an example (ie, a preferred embodiment of the invention), the deep sea water has a high concentration (ie, (Approximate amount), and it is preferable to supply a large amount of ions contained in the deep sea water to the water of the skin stratum corneum by applying the cosmetic to the skin. Is suggested.

However, when a large amount of electrolyte ions and the like derived from deep ocean water are supplied to the stratum corneum, they are dissolved in the stratum corneum by natural moisturizing factors (amino acids and their metabolites, such as water-soluble components and salts). And various kinds of electrolytes such as lactate), there is a problem that nothing is mentioned in Citations 1 and 2. Therefore, despite the proposals of the cited publications 1 and 2, it is unknown about the natural moisturizing factor of the skin and the effect on the skin when the deep sea water is blended in cosmetics at a high concentration and applied to the skin. There was a problem.

(2) In the cited publications 1 and 2, there is a proposal for improving the bactericidal effect by allowing deep ocean water to act on a bactericide, and improving the moisturizing properties by applying deep ocean water to the skin to replenish minerals. And deep sea water with different sampling sea areas is used in the examples. In other words, cited publications 1 and 2 show that different effects are obtained by adding to cosmetics for different purposes using deep ocean water whose physical, chemical or biochemical properties are different from the sampling sea area. The resulting proposal is disclosed.

[0015] However, the cited publications 1 and 2 do not mention at all the reason that when deep sea water having different properties is added to cosmetics, different effects can be obtained for cosmetics. There was a problem that there was no description suggesting the reason for this. Therefore, in spite of the proposals of the cited publications 1 and 2, the characteristics (particularly, chemical or biochemical characteristics) of deep ocean water and the influence of the difference in the characteristics on the human body such as cosmetics and skin are affected. There was a problem that it was unknown.

(3) Regarding the influence of deep ocean water on the skin's essential performance (typically, skin moistness and suppleness) related to the natural natural moisturizing factor of the stratum corneum, reference is made to the cited publication. There was a problem that no mention was made in 1 and 2. Therefore, despite the proposals of the cited publications 1 and 2, it is unknown whether it is possible to maintain the original performance of the skin by adding deep-sea water to cosmetics. There was a point.

(4) Conventionally, cosmetics containing high concentration of deep ocean water have been considered preferable (for example,
There has been a problem that adverse effects on skin caused by cosmetics containing a high concentration of deep ocean water are not studied at all and are unknown. Therefore, the present inventors have studied experimentally and in detail the characteristics of deep ocean water, the effects and effects of adding deep ocean water to cosmetics, and the effects of deep ocean water on the skin. For example, the following (i) Facts such as (iv) have been found in the present invention.

(I) The fact is that if the properties of deep sea water derived from the difference in the sampling sea area are different, even if deep sea water is added to cosmetics, the cosmetics will have different effects.

(Ii) When the deep ocean water is specified by the ratio of the concentration of nutrient components contained in the deep ocean water,
The fact is that it is possible to identify deep ocean waters that give cosmetics a similar trend of efficacy.

(Iii) The deep ocean water has a high concentration (for example,
When the cosmetics contained in an amount of 20 to 100% by weight (based on the total weight of the cosmetics) are applied to the skin, the skin becomes sticky depending on the deep sea water to be added, and the skin has a moist feeling and a supple feeling. Is a tendency to rather hinder the intrinsic performance of

(Iv) When the cosmetic contains a high concentration of deep ocean water (for example, 20 to 100% by weight (based on the total weight of the cosmetic)), and when the cosmetic contains a low concentration of deep ocean water (for example, 1%).
It is a fact that the effect different from the effect of the cosmetic product occurs when it is contained in the amount of not more than% by weight. In other words, even if an example is given for cosmetics containing deep ocean water at a high concentration, the effect and efficacy of cosmetics containing the same deep ocean water at a low concentration cannot be predicted.

Accordingly, the present invention provides a cosmetic product having an improved moisturizing effect as a common effect by blending deep sea water, and an improvement in the specific effect of each type of cosmetic. Moreover, it is an object of the present invention to provide a cosmetic product that maintains and improves the essential performance of the skin such as a moist feeling and a supple feeling of the skin.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The cosmetics of the present invention will be specifically described below with respect to the deep sea water, the blending characteristics of the deep sea water, and the cosmetics. In the following, the term “cosmetics” is used to mean “moisture-containing cosmetics” unless otherwise specified.

[Deep Ocean Water] In the present invention, when the concentration of the contained component is expressed in μmol / liter, the content of nitrogen and phosphoric acid phosphorus composed of nitrate nitrogen and nitrite nitrogen is contained. Deep sea water characterized by a concentration ratio (calculated as nitrogen concentration / phosphorus concentration) of 1.2 to 60.0 is incorporated in cosmetics. Deep ocean water has low water temperature, cleanliness (low in bacteria), eutrophication (extremely small amount of phytoplankton, etc., which is nourished by fish), and component homeostasis (component concentration is stable) However, the physical, chemical and biochemical characteristics of deep seawater that differ depending on the sea area from which it is collected are unknown in many respects.

However, in the present invention, it has been found that deep ocean water characterized by the concentration ratio of nitrogen and phosphorus in the nutrients contained therein is effective for improving and improving the specific performance of cosmetics. That is, the content ratio of nitrogen to phosphorus is 1.2 to 60.0 (preferably 1.2 to 40.
It has been found that the deep sea water in the range of 0) can enjoy the effects of the present invention on cosmetics by its addition. When the concentration ratio of nitrogen to phosphorus is 1.2 to 40.0, it is easy to maximize the effects of the present invention. The deep ocean water of the present invention,
From the point of water depth, marine water at a depth of about 100 m or less may be used. The boundary water depth between the deep ocean water and the surface ocean water is about 100 m, about 200 m, about 250 m, and about 1 k, corresponding to the fact that the deep ocean water is grasped for various purposes.
