Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a cosmetic such as a lotion, a milky lotion, a serum, a cream, a gel pack, or a cleanser.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a humectant has been added to this kind of cosmetics for the purpose of maintaining skin homeostasis and protecting the skin from drying in winter. Examples of the humectant include water-soluble polyhydric alcohols such as propylene glycol and sorbitol, water-soluble polymers such as hyaluronic acid and xanthan gum, pyrrolidone carboxylate and amino acids. Natural moisturizing factors, intercellular lipids represented by ceramide, and the like are used.

[0003]

When the above-mentioned humectant is blended, the humectant has a suitable moisturizing effect.
Many of the water-soluble polyhydric alcohols and water-soluble polymers exhibit stickiness at the time of coating or immediately after coating, and are not always preferred in terms of sensory characteristics. In addition, natural moisturizing factors and intercellular lipids are difficult to exhibit a sufficient moisturizing effect due to restrictions on the compounding concentration in the formulation and compatible formulations. It has been proposed to incorporate a baker's yeast extract or a beer yeast extract into cosmetics, but it only has an effect on the metabolism and texture of the skin and has a poor moisturizing effect.

In view of the present situation, the present invention has been intensively studied and, as a result, the sake yeast extract used in the production of sake is incorporated into cosmetics to have extremely excellent moisturizing properties and to be applied to a wide range of preparations. The present inventors have found that they are not only capable of performing the experiment but also have excellent sensory characteristics, and have completed the present invention.

[0005]

That is, the invention of claim 1 is a gist of a cosmetic, characterized by containing a sake yeast extract used for producing sake.

The invention according to claim 2 is characterized in that the content of sake yeast extract used in the production of sake is 0.01 to 30.
The gist of the present invention is that of the cosmetic according to claim 1.

[0007] The invention according to claim 3 is characterized in that the cosmetics according to claims 1 and 2 are characterized by containing a plant extract.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION As a sake yeast extract in the present invention, a grown sake yeast extract obtained in a sake production process is used. Although the mechanism of moisturizing by such sake yeast extract is not always clear, the grown sake yeast obtained in the sake production process is rich in natural vitamins B ₁ , B ₂ , amino acids and other components that act gently on the skin. It seems to be due to As yeasts of sake yeast extract, association 6 yeast, association 7 yeast, association 9 yeast, association 10 yeast, association 11 yeast, association 12 yeast, association 13 yeast belonging to the genus Saccharomyces, and yeast without foam are included. 607 ・ 701 ・
No. 901 and No. 1001, and sake yeasts such as mutant yeasts thereof. Then, the production of sake yeast extract is based on the grown sake yeast obtained in the process of producing sake using such sake yeast as a raw material, and a mixed solution such as water is added to this to dissolve the cell walls of the sake yeast, and the inside of the yeast The extract contained is heated and extracted. At this time, it is desirable to carry out extraction by heating at 60 ° C. for 30 minutes.
Next, after leaving it to stand at room temperature of about 15 ° C. for about 6 to 12 hours, the sake yeast extract is separated by a centrifuge and left to stand for several days. Thereafter, the mixture is filtered, and sterilized by a filter to produce.

The content of the sake yeast extract is from 0.01 to 3
0% by weight, preferably 0.05 to 5% by weight. When the content of the sake yeast extract is 0.01% by weight or less, the moisturizing effect cannot be obtained, and when it exceeds 30% by weight, the usability and the preparation are adversely affected.

[0010] In the present invention, a plant extract is preferably added together with the sake yeast extract from the viewpoint of stability and usability. Examples of such plant extracts include mulberry extract, sandalwood extract, loquat leaf extract, grapefruit extract, saxifrage extract, rosmari extract, chamomile extract, aloe extract, touki extract, seaweed extract, amacha extract, orange extract, dokudami Extract, hop extract, fennel extract, chamomile extract, peonies extract, birch extract, douglas extract, soybean extract, kiwi extract, valerium extract, carrot extract, sicon extract, yokuinin extract, ginkgo extract, hypericum extract, melissa extract, oubak extract, carrot Extracts, marronnier extract, lemon extract, loofah extract, rice bran extract, coltsfoot extract, honeysuckle extract, grape leaf extract, turmeric extract, kumazasa extract, shi Noekisu, arnica extract,
