Codonopsis lanceolata belongs to the Campanulaceae family, which is a perennial herb. It is widely used as an antitussive agent and an expectorant in oriental medicine. Codonopsis lanceolata contains large amounts of polysaccharide and phenolic compounds and is known to have anti-oxidative effect and improve immunity. We evaluated the efficacy and the skin safety and stability of cosmetic that is applied Codonopsis lanceolata extract fermented by lactic acid bacteria. As result, formulation of Codonopsis lanceolata extract improved the human skin moisturizing effect, increased TEWL 196%, skin hydration 15%, and the sebum rate 131%.

The skin condition varies by the parts of the face. This study intended to visualize the facial skin based on the characteristics including moisture, sebum, dryness, amount of dead skin cells, and roughness by sectionalizing the facial skin into 9 areas. A total of 98 female in their 20~35s were selected, and the characteristics of skin by area were selected and listed in the order, and the area they felt each characteristic most strongly was analyzed with a weight and the result was visualized. The result showed that the area where they felt dryness the most was around the lips and eyes, and the area where the largest amount of dead skin cells and rough skin existed was the chin. There was a significant increase in moisture content (p <.05), and 90.5% of satisfaction with dryness was satisfied. The result of this study will be used as a basic data for the development of a cosmetic mask pack or a functional cosmetic product for each part.

피부, 눈 및 상부 호흡기의 자극 가능성을 최소화하기 위해, 인산(Phosphoric acid)에 대한 직업적 노출기준 TLV-TWA를 $1mg/m^3$, 그리고 TLV-STEL을 $3mg/m^3$으로 권고하였다. 수분이 있는 상태에서 인산 먼지나 인산 케이크에 의한 피부 접촉은 특히 자극적이다. TLV-TWA의 권고수준은 산에 노출 경험이 없는 노동자들에게 인후염을 일으키는 인산의 공기 중 농도보다 낮은 수준이다. 또한 인산 노출에 순응된 노동자들에게 유발할 수 있는 농도보다는 훨씬 더 낮은 수준이다. 피부(Skin), 감작성(SEN) 또는 발암성 경고표지(Notation)를 권고하기에는 충분한 자료가 없다.

Today all kinds of smart devices are being developed with various researches on wearable devices that support smart computing on the human body. Skin diseases continue to rise including freckles, pimples, atopy, and scalp trouble due to the environmental and genetic factors, and people pay bigger medical bills to treat their skin diseases. There is thus a need to develop a smart-phone or table-based smart healthcare imaging system of high portability and diagnostic accuracy capable of analyzing and managing various skin problems related to skin care. This study proposed an integrated system combining the Smart Mi Band, a wearable device using moisture and UV sensors based on IoT, on the hardware part with the sensor information monitoring software.

Inositol and phytic acid extracted from rice bran were investigated for applying cosmetics. Skin lotions containing $0{\~}3.0\;wt\%$ inositol and $0{\~}1.50\;wt%$ phytic acid were applied respectively, to the arm skins of 45 Asian women 20'~40's for 7 weeks. Improvement on moisture was evaluated. In addition, improvements on sebum, elasticity, and wrinkle were examined after applying placebo, inositol and phytic acid-containing skin lotions tot face, respectively. For $1.0\;wt\%$ inositol, it resulted in $19\%$ increase of moisture. The wrinkle reduction and elasticity improved $12.4%\;and\;17.0\%$ on average, respec-tively. Applying $0.5\;wt\%$ phytic acid resulted in $71.6\%$ increase the moisture. Improvements on wrinkle and elasticity were $16.9%\;and\;21.9\%$ respectivelv. hpplving inositol or phytic acid regardless of dry or oily skin, resulted in sebum value recovery to that of the normal skin after 2~4 weeks. Although inositol is inferior to phytic acid in improvements of the skin, phytic acid is not suitable to sensitive skin. So, $0~0.50\;wt\%$ of phytic acid were added to $1.0\;wt\%$ inositol and similar experiments were carried out. In case of added $1.0\;wt\%$ phytic acid, moisture increased $63.8\%$ approximately. Improvements on elasticity and reduction on wrinkle were $17.2%\;and\;17.4\%,$ respectively. Both skin types were turned to normal skin type after 2 weeks. It could improve the skin condition when used inositol added phytic acid. The optimized concentration of phytic acid was $0.10\;wt\%\;with\;1.0\;wt\%$ of inositol without side effect.

By studying bioactivity in the aspect of skin care via curcumin, the main component of turmeric, and isoflavones, the soybean extract, this research tried to prove the possibilities as cosmetic ingredients. This research identified the curcumin and soybean extract's anti-inflammatory and toxic effects on skin cells through cell experiment, and using HPLC, the moisture, oiliness, and changes in erythema were measured when the soybean extract was applied to the skin. The result showed that curcumin had the least toxin on RAW 264.7 cell and the anti-inflammatory effect was identified. There were statistically significant changes on the moisture, oiliness and erythema when cosmetics containing curcumin and soybean extract were used. Therefore, it showed the possibilities of the utilization of curcumin and soybean extract to be used as cosmetics for acne skin.

Akebia quinata fruit(AQF), as identified in the preceding paper, polyphenols and other phenolic components of saponin also has similar or higher levels. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of akebia quinata fruit extract, well-known for soothing, anti-oxidizing effects, on the improvement of the moisture, sebum, melanin, erythema content of facial skin. As a result of measuring DPPH radical scavenging activity to examine independent anti-oxidation of AQF, there was a slight scavenging activity. Compared to before the usage of cream, a group who used cream with akebia quinata fruit extract showed a very slight increase in the moisture content and slight decrease in the sebum, melanin, erythema on their faces after 4 weeks of tests, indicating that there was some statistically significant changes found. This study proves that the akebia quinata fruit(AQF) extract has a positive effect on the overall improvement of facial skin and it also implies that the akebia quinata fruit extract has high potential as an ingredient of cosmetic products.

This study aimed to comparatively analyze changes in skin conditions according to the frequency of sheet mask use among women in their 60s. An experiment was performed for 5 weeks from May 1 to June 3, 2020. A total of 70 women in their 60s, who understood the purposes of this study and agreed to the experiment were selected. All empirical analyses were conducted at a significance level of 5%, and the SPSS WIN 21 program was used to perform statistical analysis. Increased moisture content, decreased coarseness, changes in sebum levels, and decreased pigmentation, were significant effects of sheet mask use for 7days per week. As long as the sheet mask did not irritate the skin, had a positive effects on the skin the more often it was used. These results can help in enhancing the effectiveness of systematic measurement and improvement of skin type. To determine factors affecting skin conditions, it is necessary to investigate and compare factors such as effects of dietary or living habits, genetic influence, and living environments.

A placebo-controlled double-blind ingestion study of a beauty supplement containing rice-derived ceramide was performed. Thirty three subjects who always tended to have rough skin due to dryness participated in the study. Dermatological diagnosis by physicians showed that the supplement significantly improved dryness and itching of the skin. On measurement of water content in the skin, the supplement was shown to significantly increase water content in the skin. On microscopic three-dimensional analysis of the epidermis, the supplement was shown to improve smoothness, exfoliation, and short-term ingestion of the supplement containing rice derived ceramide, which is very effective as skin beautifying food.
