Purpose: In this study, the asymmetrical cut of the left parallel line and the right diagonal line was examined by varying the length, angle, and slice line. Additionally, basic data on haircuts will be provided.Methods: The head region division was divided into upper and lower parts. The angle of the parallel line on the left, the right side of the right side, and the head were 25°, 50°, and 75°, respectively. The slice A (diagonal) line on the side was 25°, the parallel line was 50°, and the V (diagonal) line was 75°.Results: The one-reel angle represents smoothness and orderliness. Furthermore, rough texture and arrangement represent gradation. The feeling of liveliness and rhythm appear when the head area division position is up, and the feeling of volume and weight increases when it is down. The A (diagonal) line represents maturity, maturity, and thinness, the parallel line represents plain and smooth, and the V (diagonal) line represents cuteness and youthfulness. The imbalance of asymmetrical cuts can offer freshness, mystery, vibrant dynamics, rhythm, and mystery.Conclusion: Different types of cut designs can be reborn if you abandon the same way of thinking. Based on this, it is considered that sensuous haircut designs are endless.

Purpose: Currently, aging-related sarcopenia is considered a serious problem. However, few studies have addressed the treatment or prevention of sarcopenia using Gryllus bimaculatus . Therefore the present study was carried out to determine whether Gryllus bimaculatus has an ameliorative effect on sarcopenia and to study its applicability as a food for sarcopenia in the elderly or in patients with this condition.Methods: The contents of moisture, crude ash, crude protein, crude fat, carbohydrate and minerals were analyzed. The amino acid and fatty acid compositions were analyzed using an automatic amino acid analyzer and gas chromatography, respectively. Cell viability was measured using a 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Myostatin expression was investigated in C2C12 cells using a luciferase reporter assay after treatment with a Gryllus bimaculatus extract.Results: The Gryllus bimaculatus powder (GBP), protein extract of Gryllus bimaculatus (PEGB), Gryllus bimaculatus egg (GBE), and egg protein extract of Gryllus bimaculatus (EPGB) were high in essential amino acids, especially branched chain amino acids, and unsaturated fatty acids, and low in carbohydrates. Moreover, Gryllus bimaculatus appeared to have ameliorative effects on sarcopenia by suppressing the mRNA expression of myostatin in C2C12 cells.Conclusion: It is expected that Gryllus bimaculatus will be positive for the development of food materials or to prevent sarcopenia in the elderly or in patients with this condition.

Purpose: Acetyl hexapeptide-8 (AH-8) had been reportedly effective in improving keratinocytes. Ampoules containing AH-8 as an active ingredient were prepared, and their efficacy for improving skin elasticity was evaluated.Methods: Ampoules containing 3% and 5% AH-8 were prepared, and their efficacy was evaluated. C3H mice were pretreated with different AH-8 ampoule concentrations and then irradiated with UVB for 6 weeks. Changes in the number of collagen and elastic fibers from paraffin-embedded skin tissues were quantitatively measured using an image analysis program.Results: Our data showed that the skin of C3H mice with UVB-irradiated markedly decreased the collagen levels compared to the control. Moreover, pretreatment of 3% and 5% AH-8 ampoules on UVB irradiation increased collagen production. Furthermore, the elastin production was decreased in the UVB-irradiated group compared to the control and the elastin level in the skin of C3H mice was similar in both pretreated with 5% AH-8 on the UVB irradiation and control groups.Conclusions: This study has proven that HA-8 ampoules had a high capability of improving elasticity when compared to vehicle ampoule-containing ginkgo leaf and green tea extracts. Moreover, this study revealed the efficacy of AH-8 for increasing skin elasticity in terms of a cosmetic active ingredient.

Purpose: The objective of this study was to evaluate the quality of five different types of agarwood from Vietnam and 4 other areas and analyze the volatile chemical components by gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS). We attempted to identify the ingredients that have previously been reported to have skin health benefits, and reviewed their potential future use as raw materials for natural cosmetics.Methods: The five sources of Aquilaria crassna (A. crassna) were from Vietnamese, Indonesian, Malaysian, Myanmar, and Cambodian agarwoods. The volatile chemical components of each agarwood were analyzed by GC-MS. The Vietnamese agarwood was selected as a standard by identifying A. crassna through DNA analysis.Results: GC-MS analysis revealed that ‘sesquiterpene’ was contained in all the agarwood samples. The four sesquiterpene components, italicene ether, epi-γ-eudesmol, δ-guaiene, and α-agarofuran were commonly detected in all agarwood samples. Eight simple volatile aromatic compound components (1-octanol, 4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-butanone, 4-phenyl-2-butanone, benzaldehyde, ethylbenzene, nonanal, octanal, and 2-ethyl-1-hexanol) were commonly detected. The sesquiterpene components, α-agarofuran, β-selinene, α-curcumene, and α-santalol have been reported to have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial, and anti-skin cancer properties, respectively.Conclusion: This study demonstrated a substantial difference in the quality of the volatile component composition in each of the four source areas other than A. crassna from Vietnam. Agarwood contains sesquiterpene, which has a unique fragrance and is beneficial for skin health, and it is expected to be utilized as a raw material for natural cosmetics and developed in the future as a functional cosmetic with high added value.

Purpose: In this study, the cytotoxicity and antioxidant effects of Aloe arborescens oil isolated from supercritical fluid extraction were confirmed, and an aloe oil cream was manufactured to evaluate the skin wrinkle improvement effect. Thus, we provided scientific evidence for functional cosmetic ingredients.Methods: Aloe oil was extracted from Jeju Aloe arborescens using a supercritical fluid extraction method. Aloe oil chromaticity and fatty acid analysis were determined. MTT assay and DPPH radical scavenging activity were used to assess the cell viability and antioxidant effect of NIH-3T3, HaCaT, and B16F10 cells. Additionally, we evaluated the effect of an aloe-containing cream on skin wrinkle improvement on 22 adult women 40–60 years of age.Results: Aloe oil extracted from Aloe arborescens using supercritical fluid extraction contained 0.02 g of fatty acid per 100 g, which included behenic, palmitic, α-linolenic, oleic, linoleic, and elaidic acids. The L value was 12.46±2.15, the a value was 3.73±0.26, the b value was 10.35±0.51, and the ΔE was 81.4 as a result of chromaticity. The cell viability of NIH-3T3, HaCaT, and B16F10 cells showed low cytotoxicity up to a concentration of 100 μg/mL. Aloe oil outperformed aloe supercritical extract in terms of DPPH radical scavenging activity. According to the results of a skin wrinkle improvement efficacy test, a cream containing aloe oil has a significantly high skin wrinkle improvement effect.Conclusion: We discovered that aloe oil isolated from supercritical fluid extraction has a strong antioxidant effect and significantly improves skin wrinkles.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to show that Meibometer® is a useful analysis technique for the measurement and evaluation of the sebum content on the scalp by comparing the test analysis results of the scalp sebum content using Meibometer® and Sebumeter®.Methods: In this study, Meibometer® and Sebumeter® were used for quantitative measurements of the sebum content on the scalp of the test volunteers, and the measurement results were analyzed using the paired t-test and Pearson’s correlation coefficient.Results: The scalp sebum content was analyzed using Meibometer® and Sebumeter®, and according to the results, both measuring devices exhibited a reduction in the scalp sebum content, compared to before the testing product was applied (p<0.001). The Meibometer® and Sebumeter® measurements showed a significant positive correlation (r=0.411) in the second measurement. Conclusion: These results showed that the measuring results of both Meibometer® and Sebumeter® had a high correlation and they were appropriate for measurement. However, it is suggested that for reducing the interference of the adjacent hair with sebum and quantitatively evaluating the sebum content on the scalp only, Meibometer® can be a relatively useful analysis technique, and it is expected that further test analysis and studies using Meibometer® will be actively conducted in the future.
