This study evaluated the skin improvement effect and feeling of use of a temperaturesensitive hydrogel mask pack containing an hyaluronic acid. Ten women in their 30s to 40s who met the selection criteria were tested. The hydrogel mask pack was applied 3 times a week for 4 weeks, and moisture, oil, and skin tone were measured. As a result, skin moisture content increased by 11.3% after one application and 58.36% after 4 weeks of use, showing a very high rate of moisture increase. The oil content increased by 67% after one use, and after that, an appropriate amount of oil was maintained. Did not increase any more. Skin tone increased after 4 weeks. After 4 weeks, evaluation of application feeling and sensory efficacy obtained 87.6% of positive results. As a result of the above, the temperature-sensitive hydrogel mask pack helps to improve the skin and has an excellent feeling of use.

This study was conducted on women in their 20s and 30s living in the Seoul metropolitan area by using questionnaires on the recognition and purchase behavior of mask packs. According to this study, although there is high interest in skin beauty, the recognition of characteristics and distinctions according to mask pack type was found to be insufficient. After using mask packs, 51.5% of those surveyed were satisfied with their efficacy and effectiveness. When using the mask pack, the Sheet type mask pack was discontented with usability, size, Close Adhesion and skin irritation, Hydrogel type is material, sleeping type is content and absorbent, cellulose type pack was found to have the same discomfort with the material as the hydro gel type. Through the results of this study, the possibility of utilization as basic data for mask pack market marketing was confirmed.

Hydrogels are natural polymer networks that can contain huge quantities of water and many cosmetical ingredients. Their hydrophilic functional groups creates a matrix, which allows high efficacy in delivering active ingredients into the skin. In industry, hydrating properties and strength of the hydrogels are of great interest in manufacturing hydrogel mask packs. We have used the cellulose in various forms such as powder, cotton fiber and cellulase treated cotton fiber to investigate the property changes of cellulose/hydrogel sheets. When 0.1% and 0.3% of cellulose powder were added to hydrogels, tensile strength of hydrogel sheets were decreased by 10% and 14% respectively. Vise versa, when 0.5 ~ 2 cm of cotton fibers were added, tensile strength of hydrogel sheets were significantly increased by about 20%. The hydrogels which contain cotton fibers also gave an excellent moisturizing effect. Especially cellolose/hydrogels containing cellulase-treated cotton fibers showed the best effect on retaining moisture content increasing upto 380% in comparison with the one containing untreated cotton as well as excellent dispersibility.
