Purpose: In this study, cytotoxicity and whitening effects of liposomes and non-liposomes containing Geranium maculatum (G. maculatum) were measured to confirm their functionality as a cosmetic material.Methods: The cytotoxicity test was used to measure the effect of G. maculatum in liposomes and non-liposomes on B16F10 cells, and the whitening test was performed to measure the inhibitory effect of G. maculatum in liposomes and non-liposomes on melanin and tyrosinase production. Furthermore, the effect of G. maculatum liposomes on LPS-induced NO production was determined in RAW 264.7 cells. Cell viability was measured using the MTT assay.Results: G. maculatum in liposomes showed higher a cytotoxicity to B16F10 cells than G. maculatum in non-liposomes. Examination of the inhibitory effect on melanin production and tyrosinase production revealed that G. maculatum in liposomes produced a stronger whitening effect than that in non-liposomes. In addition, the experiments using RAW 264.7 cells showed that liposomes containing G. maculatum not only inhibited NO production but also resulted in higher cell viability than non-liposomes containing G. maculatum. Conclusion: Liposomescontaining G. maculatum exert an antiseptic effect through a significant inhibition of NO production. They are preferred as a cosmetic material owing to their inhibitory activity on tyrosinase and melanin production.

Purpose: This study aimed to explore the differences in the antioxidant activity and anti-inflammatory effects of Gloiopeltis furcata based on its extraction conditions.Methods: 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) assays were performed to determine the antioxidant activity of Gloiopeltis furcata extracts obtained using different concentrations of ethanol. Concomitantly, the concentrations of polyphenols and flavonoids, which are antioxidants present in Gloiopeltis furcata extract, were measured. Additionally, in cell-based experiments, the cytotoxicity and anti-inflammatory activity of a water extract, which exhibited the most potent antioxidative activity among all extracts, was measured.Results: In the DPPH assay, the Gloiopeltis furcata extract exhibited an antioxidant activity of 3.576 mg of ascorbic acid/g, whereas in the ABTS assay, the antioxidant activity was 4.892 mg of ascorbic acid/g. The polyphenol concentration was found to be 35.52±2.32 mg/g, whereas the flavonoid concentration was 0.88±0.34 mg/g. Furthermore, the extract had a cytotoxicity of ≤20% at all concentrations used in the experiment, thus indicating the absence of cytotoxicity and confirming that the extract was effective in reducing inflammation proportionally to its concentration. Moreover, the extract exhibited an anti-inflammatory activity of 47.66%±1.53% at a concentration of 100 μg/mL.Conclusion: Gloiopeltis furcata exhibited the most potent antioxidant activity in its water extract, and it was confirmed that the extract of Gloiopeltis furcata that was obtained through water had low cytotoxicity, an anti-inflammatory effect, and a commercial value.

Purpose: This study aimed to determine the promoting effects of HX109 on hair growth.Methods: We prepared HX109 by extracting Taraxacum officinale, Cuscuta australis, and Nelumbo nucifera with 25% ethanol. The hair growth-promoting effects were measured in C57BL/6J mice which were orally administered HX109 (30, 100, and 300 mg/kg) with dorsal hair depilation. Western blotting was used to examine the protein expression in skin tissues (cyclin family, bax, and bcl-2). Moreover, the WST-1 assay was used to assess the cell viability of human hair dermal papilla cells (HFDPC). Flow cytometry was used to examine the change in the HFDPC cell cycle proportion.Results: In HX109-treated C57BL/6J mice, hair growth was increased in a dose-dependent manner compared with the vehicle-treated group. Specifically, 300 mg/kg of HX109 treated group showed significantly enhanced hair regrowth (p<0.01). Furthermore, HX109 significantly increased cyclin B1 expression and decreased the bax/bcl-2 ratio in the back skin of mice. HX109 also increased cell viability in HFDPCs in a dose-dependent manner by stimulating the S-G2/M phase transition.Conclusion: The mixed herbal extract HX109 has a hair growth-promoting effect by increasing HFDPC viability through regulation of the S-G2/M phase transition.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the use of purified Kaki-tannin obtained from a Korean natural product, Diospyros kaki Thumb. In order to confirm the potential application of kaki-tannin to cosmetics, the efficacy was evaluated by kakit-annin that molecular weight decreased by gamma irradiation.Methods: Kaki-tannin polymer was extracted by hydrothermal extraction from persimmon. The molecular weight of Kaki-tannin polymer reduced by gamma-ray irradiation, and then separated and purified. Further, the molecular weight of this polymer was reduced by gamma-ray irradiation; subsequently, it was separated and purified. Radical scavenging activities of this reduced molecular weight Kaki-tannin were examined by the 2,2′-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical, 2,2′-azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) diammonium salt radical cation, and hydroxyl radical scavenging assays. Moreover, the inhibitory effects of Kaki-tannin on tyrosinase and melanin synthesis in B16F10 melanoma cells were measured in vitro. Furthermore, the expression of tyrosinase, microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF), tyrosinase-related protein (TRP)-1, and TRP-2 during melanogenesis was confirmed by western blotting.Results: Irradiated Kaki-tannin exhibited an antioxidant effect as well as suppressed tyrosinase activity and melanogenesis. The results of this study confirmed that the expression of tyrosinase, MITF, and TRP-2 decreased as the treatment of irradiated Kaki-tannin increased.Conclusion: In the present study, to incorporate high molecular weight Kaki-tannin in cosmetics, it was first irradiated with gamma rays in order to reduce its weight. This study confirmed that Kaki-tannin irradiated by gamma-ray has antioxidant and whitening effects as well as the potential to be used as a cosmetic material.

By analyzing the cuticle image, the condition was found to be better than that of the control group.Conclusion: The tensile strength, absorbance, gloss, and hair skin analysis of the specimens applied with keratin solution showed differences, which affected the damaged hair.","PeriodicalId":8508,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Beauty and Cosmetology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89871285","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
Purpose: This research focuses on a creative design cut with right diagonal line asymmetrical haircuts according to head region division, angle, and slice line. Of late, managing customers in the hair beauty industry has been difficult because customers are always looking for new things; therefore, a haircut with a new and creative design is required. This study provides basic data on haircuts.Methods: Hair on the top of the head was divided into three sections: golden-back medium point, back-point, and back-nape medium point. Hair on the upper part of the head was cut at 0°, 30°, and 60°, and the lower part of the head was cut at 45°; however, only the hair on the upper part of the head was used for length measurement.Results: The natural procedure angle of 0° represents smooth and straight textures. In addition, the volume, weight, and expansion increase with the area. Smooth and coarse textures exhibited fine layers at 30° and natural layers at 60° simultaneously. The parallel line becomes straight; further, the A (diagonal) and the V (diagonal) lines elongate and shrink toward the face line, respectively.Conclusion: The right angle line asymmetry cut can provide freshness, liveliness, and rhythm feeling through unbalance. In addition, the length of the right side increases, resulting in a heterogeneous effect. In the future, the volume cut and length changes will be studied based on the jawline, neckline, and clavicle.
