Description

Detailed Description of the Invention (Industrial Field of Application) The present invention relates to a powder cleaning composition used for cleaning the human body, and more specifically, the present invention relates to a powder cleaning composition used for cleaning the human body, and more specifically, a powder cleaning composition containing special ingredients to have a cleaning effect and a skin protection effect. The present invention relates to a powder cleaning composition that is excellent and can continuously exfoliate aged keratin while protecting the skin, and can achieve a cleaning effect in a short time.

(Conventional technology) Conventionally, in order to remove dirt and grime from the human face, limbs, body, hair, etc., the fat content of dirt, grime, etc. is emulsified using a detergent mainly composed of surfactants, and then washed away. method has been adopted.

In addition, when women wash their face for beauty, they wash their face repeatedly with cleansing cream, wipe lotion, and soap, and then apply a face pack.

On the other hand, it is known to add casein compounds to detergents, packs, etc. that mainly contain surfactants. For example, JP-A No. 53-59704 discloses a liquid cleaning composition mainly composed of a surfactant and containing casein, and JP-A-54-45311 discloses a solid cosmetic composition containing a casein compound. In addition, JP-A-46-126839 describes an aerosol cosmetic pack mainly composed of amine soap and containing sodium caseinate.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) Such conventional cleaning agents do not have a sufficient cleaning effect, and in particular cannot sufficiently remove dirt from the skin pores and sweat pores. In addition, it takes a long time to clean, for example, when a woman washes her face twice, she washes her face twice with cleansing cream, wipe lotion, and soap, and then applies a patch.
It took about 30 minutes.

Furthermore, with conventional detergents, repeated washing can irritate the skin, so it is necessary to avoid washing the skin repeatedly within a short period of time. It was hot.

In addition, conventional cleansing agents only remove dirt and grime from the skin surface; they do not remove aged keratin on the skin surface. The effect of restoring it to its original state and maintaining it was not as good as it could have been.

On the other hand, when casein compounds are added to surfactant-based detergents and packs, although some skin protection effects are observed, skin roughness still occurs, and in particular, these detergents may be used to prevent aging of the skin surface. If an attempt is made to forcibly exfoliate the dead skin, significant roughness of the skin and damage to the epidermal cells below the granular layer occur, so that it cannot be used for forced exfoliation of the aged dead skin.

The purpose of the present invention is to eliminate the drawbacks of such conventional cleaning agents, to sufficiently remove dirt from the skin pores and sweat pores, to have an excellent cleaning effect, and to achieve the cleaning effect in a short time. Moreover, it has an excellent skin protection effect, and even if it is repeatedly washed (continuous exfoliation of aged keratin), it will not cause rough skin or loss of epidermal cells, and furthermore, removing aged keratin from the skin surface will reduce the number of epidermal cells. To provide a cleaning composition capable of activating metabolism and maintaining skin in its original state.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above object, the inventor of the present invention has conducted research over many years, and as a result, the present inventors have developed a new technology based on the emulsifying effect of conventional surfactants or the wiping effect of cleansing creams. Breaking away from the idea of first removing dirt and grime from the skin surface, the conventional method involves sucking out dirt and grime within the skin pores and sweat pores, and then mechanically forcibly exfoliating the dirt and grime from the skin surface along with aging keratin. In order to cleanse the human body using a method that was considered taboo because it damaged the skin, it is necessary to use a method that does not contain surfactants but contains oil components, medicinal plant components, and casein compounds. They found that the composition is suitable and arrived at the present invention.

That is, the present invention is a powder cleaning composition characterized in that it does not contain a surfactant and contains an oil component, a medicinal plant component, and a casein compound.

Examples of the oil component in the present invention include olive oil, avocado oil, avocado oil, shea butter, yoke lecithin, jojoba oil, turpentine oil, and camellia oil, with yoke lecithin, avocado oil, and shea butter being particularly preferred. These oil components may be used alone or in combination. Further, in order to make the oil component into powder, it is preferable to add cyclodextrin and clathrate it.

In addition, medicinal plant ingredients include comfrey powder,
In addition to dried and powdered medicinal plants such as aloe powder, chamomile, eucalyptus, western sawweed, horsetail, salvia, horsetail, horse chestnut, western linden, Japanese commonweed, hops, mistletoe,
Extracts of aloe, fairy grass, arnica, cornflower, various fruits, etc. are used. These medicinal plant components can be used alone or in combination of two or more. In order to make the plant extract into powder, it is desirable to add and mix corn starch, casein, etc., and freeze-dry the mixture.

Furthermore, the casein compound used in the present invention is called milk casein, and in particular, caseinate made by subjecting skim milk to lactic acid fermentation, neutralizing and spray-drying the obtained lactic casein, or Add acid to fatty milk to adjust pH
Caseinate prepared by neutralizing and spray-drying acid casein obtained with a pH of around 4.6 is preferably used. These casein compounds are made easily water-soluble by freeze-drying.

These components are desirably blended such that the oil component accounts for 1 to 15% by weight, the medicinal plant component accounts for 10 to 40% by weight, and the casein compound accounts for 5 to 35% by weight, based on the total composition.

To produce the cleaning composition of the present invention, as described above, an oil component powder clathrated with cyclodextrin, a dried powder of a medicinal plant, a freeze-dried powder of a medicinal plant extract, and a casein compound are appropriately blended. Just mix. Further, the oil component, medicinal plant component, and casein compound may be freeze-dried separately and then mixed together, or a powder may be obtained by freeze-drying the three components in a mixed state.

The cleaning composition of the present invention may contain kaolin, talc, starch, etc. in addition to the above-mentioned oil components, medicinal plant components, and casein compounds;
Any addition of surfactants must be avoided.
If a surfactant is included, the skin protection effect of the present invention will be significantly reduced.

When using the cleaning composition of the present invention, dissolve the composition in an appropriate amount of water to form a paste, apply this to the skin, and then rub the skin strongly with your fingers, brush, etc. to remove dirt, grime, etc. from the skin. Forcefully exfoliates along with aging dead skin cells. This cleaning composition can be used not only for cleaning the human face, limbs, and body, but also for cleaning hair.

(Effect) The cleaning composition of the present invention exhibits a remarkable skin protection effect. Therefore, even if the skin is strongly rubbed and the aged keratin on the skin surface is forcibly exfoliated along with dirt and grime, no rough skin or loss of epidermal cells will occur.Furthermore, even if there are already some scratches on the skin, It has the effect of curing this.

Furthermore, the cleaning composition of the present invention can act not only on the skin surface but also in the skin pores and sweat pores to very effectively remove dust, dirt, cosmetics, etc. inside the skin pores and sweat pores. It can also remove pigments deposited on the epidermis, such as eye shadow pigments deposited on the eyelids.

The cleaning composition of the present invention also has the effect of promoting blood circulation in the skin, activating the metabolism of epidermal cells, restoring aging skin to its normal state and maintaining it in its original state. .

Although it is not yet clear what mechanism is responsible for the skin protection effect, the removal effect of dirt in skin pores and sweat pores, and the activation effect of skin cell metabolism of the cleaning composition of the present invention, It is presumed that this is due to the interaction of the oil component, medicinal component, and casein compound that are the constituent components of the cleaning composition of the present invention.

(Example) The present invention will be explained below with reference to Examples.

Example 1 The following components were mixed and homogenized by stirring to obtain powder (A).

Avocado oil 1.00g Yolecithin 1.50g Cyclodextrin 25.00g The obtained powder (A) was a white powder with a slightly sweet taste.

On the other hand, the following components were mixed, homogenized by stirring, and then freeze-dried to obtain powder (B).

Corn starch 5.00g Casein 15.00g Lime tree extract 1.00g Eucalyptus extract 1.00g Sawwort extract 1.00g Horse chestnut extract 1.00g Horse chestnut extract 1.00g Rosemary extract 1.00g Comfrey powder 20.00g Aloe powder 15.00g The obtained powder (B) was a pale yellow-green powder with a slightly peculiar odor.

A cleaning composition obtained by uniformly mixing these powders (A) and (B) was dissolved in an appropriate amount of water to form a paste, and five test subjects (female) conducted the following test. I went there.

First, the above-mentioned cleaning composition powder paste was applied to the back of the test subject's right hand, and the paste was rubbed vigorously 20 times with a stiff cow-hair brush, and then rinsed off with tap water. The time required for cleaning was only 20 seconds, and the dirt and grime on the skin of all five people were thoroughly removed, and the skin pores and
The inside of the sweat pores were also cleaned, and the aged dead skin cells on the skin surface were also rubbed off. When this washing was repeated five times in a row, dirt and grime were almost completely removed from the skin of all five patients, and no rough skin or loss of epidermal cells occurred at all.

On the other hand, for comparison, the back of the subject's left hand was washed for 3 minutes with a commercially available toilet soap and compared with the right hand which had been washed with the cleaning composition of the present invention. The dirt in the skin pores and sweat pores was hardly removed. In addition, the aged keratin on the skin surface had not been thoroughly rubbed off. Furthermore, after washing with this cosmetic soap five times in a row, dirt still remained and cleaning of the skin pores and sweat pores was insufficient, and four out of the five subjects experienced rough skin. .

Example 2 The following ingredients were mixed, stirred and homogenized to produce powder (A).
I got it.

Jojoba oil 0.50g Yolecithin 1.50g Shea butter 0.75g Avocado oil 0.75g Cyclodextrin 30.00g The obtained powder (A) was a white powder with a slightly sweet taste.

On the other hand, the following components were mixed, homogenized by stirring, and then freeze-dried to obtain powder (B).

Corn starch 1.00g Casein 20.00g Eucalyptus extract 1.00g Bamboo shoots extract 1.00g Salvia extract 1.00g Horse chestnut extract 1.00g Bodhi tree extract 1.00g Comfrey powder 20.00g The obtained powder (B) is pale yellow It was a green powder with a slightly peculiar odor.

A cleaning composition obtained by uniformly mixing these powders (A) and (B) was dissolved in an appropriate amount of water to make a paste, and 10 subjects (females aged 28 to 32) were randomly They were divided into two groups and conducted the following tests.

First, for one group of five subjects,
The above-mentioned cleaning composition paste was applied to the face, and the face was rubbed strongly with fingers to forcibly exfoliate dirt, grime, and aged keratin, and washed off with tap water. The time required for cleaning is
It was hot in just 20 seconds. Through this washing, dirt and grime from the face were thoroughly washed away, and the inside of the skin pores and sweat pores were also cleaned. When this cleansing was done twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening, for one month, none of the five people experienced any rough skin or loss of epidermal cells, and the aging keratin was removed, so the aging skin returned to normal. The skin has returned to its normal state, and spots and wrinkles have been significantly reduced.

On the other hand, for comparison, the other group of five subjects performed the conventional face wash of cleansing cream → wipe-off lotion → soap face wash → cold pine surge → cleansing cream → wipe-off lotion → soap face wash → patch. . It took a long time, 27 minutes, and the dirt on my face was not removed sufficiently, and it was especially noticeable that dirt remained in the skin and sweat pores. The cleaning effect of this conventional face wash was visually judged to be only 1/5 of that when using the cleaning composition of the present invention. After washing this face twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening, for a month, 4 out of 5 people experienced rough skin.Furthermore, it did not remove aging skin, so there was no reduction in age spots and wrinkles. On the contrary,
The number of stains increased in three patients.

(Effects of the Invention) The cleaning composition of the present invention exhibits an excellent cleaning effect, can sufficiently remove dirt in skin pores and sweat pores, and can achieve cleaning effects in a short time. Moreover, it has an excellent skin protection effect, and even if you repeatedly perform aging exfoliation and washing, it will not cause rough skin or loss of epidermal cells.It removes aging exfoliation from the skin surface, activates the metabolism of epidermal cells, and restores the skin to its original state. You can maintain your desired youthful state.

Furthermore, since the cleaning composition of the present invention is in the form of a powder, it does not easily spoil and has the advantage that there is no need to add preservatives that are harmful to the skin.
