Botanical Extract

The current consumer demands together with the international regulations have pushed the cosmetic industry to seek new active ingredients from natural renewable sources for manufacturing more eco-sustainability and safe products, with botanical extract being an almost unlimited source of these new actives. Essential oils (EOs) emerge as very common natural ingredients in cosmetics and toiletries as a result of both their odorous character for the design and manufacturing of fragrances and perfumes, and the many beneficial properties of their individual components (EOCs), e.g., anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial and antioxidant properties, and, nowadays, the cosmetic industry includes EOs or different mixtures of their individual components (EOCs), either as active ingredients or as preservatives, in various product ranges (e.g., moisturizers, lotions and cleanser in skin care cosmetics; conditioners, masks or antidandruff products in hair care products; lipsticks, or fragrances in perfumery). However, the unique chemical profile of each individual essential oil is associated with different benefits, and hence it is difficult to generalize their potential applications in cosmetics and toiletries, which often require the effort of formulators in seeking suitable mixtures of EOs or EOCs for obtaining specific benefits in the final products. This work presents an updated review of the available literature related to the most recent advances in the application of EOs and EOCs in the manufacturing of cosmetic products. Furthermore, some specific aspects related to the safety of EOs and EOCs in cosmetics will be discussed. It is expected that the information contained in this comprehensive review can be exploited by formulators in the design and optimization of cosmetic formulations containing botanical extracts.

The Mean

Objectives: Comedogenicity is a critical factor in making of cosmetics and skin care products. The term “acne cosmetica” was coined to link the relationship between female acne to the use of cosmetic formulations, stating that the ingredients used in the cosmetic formulations have the potential to evoke a comedogenic response or produce comedones. Therefore, it is important that a skin care product is non-comedogenic and efficacious at the same time. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the comedogenic potential of the test product (Venusia Max Cream – paraben free) when applied topically under occluded patch to the skin. Material and Methods: This was a randomized, double-blinded, comparative study conducted in 24 healthy female participants, with prominent follicular orifices on the upper back region. Comedogenic potential of the test product (Venusia Max Cream – paraben free) was evaluated in comparison to positive (coconut oil) and negative (glycerin) controls in women. Each participant received topical application of test and control products under occluded patch to the skin on the upper aspect of the back, 3 times weekly for 4 weeks. Cyanoacrylate biopsies were performed before and after treatment to determine the microcomedones histologically. Microcomedones were graded using light microscopy and results were analyzed based on scale rating (0–3). Results: The mean comedone grading was assessed between positive versus negative control, and positive control versus test product. The mean comedone grades were significantly less in test product 0.41 ± 0.50 and negative control 0.82 ± 0.73 in comparison to positive control 2.09 ± 0.68. The test product was least comedogenic in this study. Furthermore, no adverse events were reported during the study period. Conclusion: Based on the histological evidence, Venusia Max Cream (paraben free) is a non-comedogenic, plant-based intense moisturizing cream and its use in regular skin care routine can be beneficial, particularly for acne prone and dry skin as it improves the skin hydration levels.

Botanical ingredients have been used for thousands of years in skincare for their convenience as well as the diversity and abundance in compounds with biological activity. Among these, polyphenols and especially flavonoids have gained increasing prominence due to their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. In this study, the most used botanical preparations in anti-aging products marketed in 2011 were determined. The analysis was repeated in 2018 for new and reformulated products. The scientific evidence for their application as active ingredients in anti-aging cosmetics and their flavonoid content was also compiled by searching in online scientific databases. Overall, in 2018, there was a noticeable increase in the use of botanical preparations in anti-aging cosmetics. However, the top three botanical species in both years were Vitis vinifera, Butyrospermum parkii, and Glycine soja, which is consistent with the greater amount of scientific evidence supporting their efficacy. Regarding the function of botanical preparations, there is a clear preference for DNA-protecting ingredients. The most prevalent flavonoids were flavan-3-ols, proanthocyanidins, and anthocyanins. This study provided an updated overview of the market trends regarding the use of botanicals in anti-aging products and documented the state of the art of scientific evidence for the most used plants.

Skin care formulations have evolved as the interaction of health and beauty products for the skin. Their benefits are based on the combination of cosmetic active ingredients and targeted application. Cosmetic actives have been used in novel formulations for decades (sunscreens, anti-aging treatments, etc.), but the problems with their low solubility, low penetration, and physicochemical instability when applied to the skin have yet to be solved. One way to circumvent these shortcomings is to use lipid carriers, which are known to play an important role in the solubility of poorly soluble compounds by facilitating skin permeation and improving stability. This review addresses recent advances in skin care products that use novel nanotechnology-based lipid systems (liposomes, solid lipid nanoparticles, etc.) to deliver moisturizing cosmetic actives and improve product efficacy.

Safety Requirements

Разработана рецептура парфюмерно-косметического средства для ухода за кожей детей первых лет жизни, отвечающего требованиям безопасности, обладающего высокими потребительскими свойствами и ценовой доступностью. Для тестирования качества разрабатываемого продукта составлены четыре рецептуры с различным процентным содержанием ингредиентов, по которым были изготовлены 4 образца детского косметического масла. По истечении трех месяцев хранения образцов в различных условиях дестабилизирующего воздействия и тестирования инженером-парфюмером для дальнейших исследований был отобран лучший образец. Установлено, что изготовленный по разработанной рецептуре образец детского косметического масла полностью соответствует требованиям ГОСТ 32852–2014. Исследование показателя трансэпидермального водопоглощения (ТЭВП), проведенное с помощью прибора DermaLab Series SkinLab Combo, показало, что при применении изготовленного по разработанной рецептуре детского масла показатель ТЭВП снижается, что свидетельствует о необходимом увлажнении за счет создания тонкой окклюзивной пленки, которая не дает влаге испариться с поверхности кожи. Разработанный продукт, обогащенный активными ингредиентами, соответствует требованиям безопасности и качества и подходит для ежедневного бережного ухода за детской кожей и массажа. The formulation of perfumery and cosmetics product for skin care of children of the first years of life, which meets the safety requirements, has high consumer properties and affordability, has been developed. Four recipes with different percentages of ingredients were compiled to test the quality of the product being developed. According to these formulations recipes, 4 samples of children's cosmetic oil were made. After three months of storing samples under various conditions of destabilizing influence and testing by the perfumer engineer for further research, the best sample was selected. It is established that the sample of children's cosmetic oil made according to the developed formulation fully meets the requirements of GOST 32852–2014. The study of the transepidermal water absorption indicator (TWA), conducted using the device DermaLab Series SkinLab Combo, showed that when using baby oil made according to the developed formulation, TWA indicator decreases, which provides the necessary hydration by creating a thin occlusive film that does not allow moisture to evaporate from the skin surface. The developed product, enriched with active ingredients, meets the requirements of safety and quality, is suitable for daily gentle care of children's skin and massage.
