Description
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

The application claims priority to Chinese patent application No. 2024110352886, filed on Jul. 31, 2024, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.


TECHNICAL FIELD

The present application relates to the field of cosmetics, in particular to a glabridin composition with high skin permeability and a preparation method and use thereof.


BACKGROUND

Glabridin, commonly known as “whitening gold”, can effectively inhibit tyrosinase activity, dopachrome tautomerism, DHICA oxidase activity and cytochrome P450 3A4 enzyme (CYP3A4 for short) activity, thus achieving the purpose of whitening and spot removing efficiently and green. However, glabridin's insolubility in water and low permeability properties limit its application in formulas.


Glabridin is a fat-soluble active substance, which is soluble in polyols, slightly soluble in oils, and insoluble in water. Therefore, in order to enhance the skin penetration ability of glabridin, it is necessary to not only solve the problem of glabridin solubility, but also use carrier technologies such as microencapsulation, liposome and nano-emulsion to wrap the active ingredients, and carry glabridin to penetrate the stratum corneum of skin to enhance the permeability. However, according to the conventional preparation method and formula composition, there are technical problems such as low skin permeation rate, low glabridin solubility, poor stability, high irritation, high preparation cost and complicated operation.


The prior art provides methods for cyclodextrin inclusion of glabridin, such as preparing cyclodextrin inclusion complexes by technologies such as precipitation methods, grinding methods, freeze drying methods, and spray drying methods. These technologies require common equipment for non-cosmetic production, and the molecular weight of cyclodextrin is large and its outside is hydrophilic, thus greatly weakening the ability of active substances to directly penetrate the hydrophobic stratum corneum. In addition, in skin care product formulas, the cyclodextrin encapsulating system still has two disadvantages. One is that cyclodextrin itself is very sticky, which will make consumers feel an unpleasant sticky feeling during use. The other is that the cyclodextrin encapsulating system is susceptible to crystal precipitation in formulas. It is shown in some documents that polyols such as pentanediol and hexanediol will affect the encapsulating stability of cyclodextrin, which leads to difficulties for formulators in developing cosmetic formulas.


The prior art also provides methods for phospholipid inclusion of glabridin, which prepare phospholipid inclusion complexes by technologies such as film rehydration methods, reverse phase evaporation methods, injection methods, and microfluidic methods. These technologies also require common equipment for non-cosmetic production, and liposomes may aggregate, leak or change their structures during storage, resulting in the loss or early release of active substances, and phospholipases in vivo can decompose liposomes, which directly affects the delivery efficiency and controlled release properties of drugs.


Therefore, there is still an urgent need for a glabridin composition with high skin permeation rate, good solubility, good stability, good skin feeling, low irritation, low preparation cost and simple operation process.

    • the nonionic surfactant is oleth-20 and polyglycerol-10 oleate; the anionic surfactant is sodium stearoyl glutamate; the oil is caprylic acid/capric acid triglyceride; the polyol is 1,3-butanediol;
    • based on a total mass of the glabridin composition, the glabridin has a content of 0.10-4.00 wt %, and the 3-o-ethyl ascorbic acid has a content of 0.10-4.00 wt %; the nonionic surfactant has a total content of 0.70 wt %-10.00 wt %, and the oil has a content of 1.00 wt %-40.00 wt %; the polyol has a content of 0.60 wt %-6.00 wt %, the anionic surfactant has a content of 0.10 wt %-1.00 wt %, water in the S2 phase has a content of 0.30 wt %-3.00 wt %, and the balance is the S3 phase;
    • in addition, the present application also provides a preparation method of the glabridin composition.


The adoption of the technical schemes of the present application is beneficial to enhancing the skin permeability and solubility of the glabridin composition, and enhancing the state stability, content stability, pH stability and mildness of the composition under high temperature and low temperature conditions, thus having unexpected technical effects.


The adoption of the preparation method provided by the present application does not need to use common equipment for non-cosmetic production, and only uses simple process operations. It is beneficial to enhance the skin permeability and solubility of the glabridin composition, and to enhance its state stability, content stability, pH stability and mildness under high temperature and low temperature conditions.

(2) Compared with other preparation methods (for example, the addition sequence of 3-o-ethyl ascorbic acid is different), using the glabridin composition obtained by the preparation process provided by the present application is more beneficial to enhancing the permeability of the essence dosage form, thus having unexpected technical effects.


(3) Compared with cyclodextrin inclusion and liposome inclusion, using the glabridin composition obtained by the preparation process provided by the present application is more beneficial to enhancing the permeability of the essence dosage form, thus having unexpected technical effects.


(4) Compared with other nonionic surfactants, the glabridin composition obtained by using oleth-20 and polyglycerol-10 oleate as nonionic surfactants in the present application is more beneficial to enhancing the permeability of the essence dosage form, thus having unexpected technical effects.


(5) Compared with other polyols, the glabridin composition obtained by using 1,3-butanediol as a polyol in the present application is more beneficial to enhancing the permeability of the essence dosage form, thus having unexpected technical effects.


(6) Compared with other oils, the glabridin composition obtained by using caprylic acid/capric acid triglyceride as an oil in the present application is more beneficial to enhancing the permeability of the essence dosage form, thus having unexpected technical effects.


Experimental Example 2: Verification of Clinical Whitening Efficacy

Test method: According to First method-test methods for whitening efficacy of human skin blackening model induced by ultraviolet rays, the essence dosage forms of Example 7-Example 9 and Comparative Example 26, Comparative Example 47, Comparative Example 49 and Comparative Example 50 were used respectively to see whether the difference of the skin color visual scores, the ITA° difference or the MI difference at any time point before and after application of the test product was significantly improved compared with the negative control (P<0.05), otherwise, it was considered that the test product has no spot removing and whitening efficacy. The test results are shown in Table 15.

Experimental Example 3: Investigation of State Stability and Content Stability

Test method: According to ISO/TR 18811-2018, Cosmetics-Guidelines on the stability testing of cosmetic products and Q/FZR 0101-2023, Raw material for cosmetics-glabridin, the glabridin compositions prepared in the above examples and comparative examples were respectively placed at 45±2° C. and −15±2° C. to observe the state stability for 6 months and test the glabridin content after 6 months (the content here represented the ratio of the measured concentration of glabridin in the product to the theoretical concentration multiplied by 100%) (the sampling and detecting time points include 0 day, 7 days, 14 days, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months). The results are shown in Table 16, Table 17 and Table 18. (Note: 1. Stop observing immediately when there is abnormal stability performance of crystal precipitation or delamination, and “/” means that the stability is not observed; 2. The content of samples with crystal precipitation observed by naked eyes will be no longer tested)
