The surfactants in cosmetics and skin care products(1)

The surfactants used in cosmetics and skincare products more frequently nowadays as the following. The surfactants for cosmetics and skincare products not only need to consider the safety, but also need to pay attention to the influence of skin. The emulsifier should prevent skin allergy. For example, Sodium Lauryl sulfate (SLS) of surfactant ingredients is well to remove dirt, but would be over remove the lipids of skin. It is only suitable for the detergent.      

Ionic surfactant

  •    Anionic surfactant
Main functions: clean dirt & as the blowing agent
1.      Sulfosuccinate ester
   Disodium laureth sulfosuccinate
   Disodium lauramido MEA-sulfosuccinate
   Dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate
   Disodium oleamido MIPA sulfosuccinate
2.      Alkyl phosphate
Mild to remove oils. It is better to adjust to weak alkylinity and neutral. It is often applied in facial and body skin care products. The material is Mono alkyl phosphate (MAP).
3.      Acyl amide, Sarcosinate
Often apply in shampoo, shower gel, facial skin care products. The material are sodium cocoyl sarcosinate and sodium lauroyl sarcosinate.
4.      Taurate
   Sodium methyl cocoyl taurate
   Sodium methyl oleyl taurate
   Sodium cocoyl isethionate
5.      Acylglutamate
   Acylglutamate
   Sodium N-lauryl-glutamate
   Sodium N-cocoyl-l-glutamate
6.      Alky sulfates
It is strong to remove oil and often used in male facial skin products. But be careful for skin aged and dermatitis in the long-term treatment.
   Sodium lauryl sulfate, SLS, C12H25OSO3Na
   Ammonium lauryl sulfate, ALS, C12H25OSO3NH4
   TEA lauryl sulfate, TLS
7.      Polyoxyethylene alkylether sulfate
   Sodium lauryl ether sulfate, SLES
   Ammonium lauryl ether sulfate, ALES
   Sodium laureth-2 sulfate
   Sodium trideceth sulfate
8.      Acyl isethionate
It is often applied in soap.
   Sodium cocoyl isethionate

Cationic surfactant
Main functions: disinfectant, antistatic, and make fiber soft such as hairs
It is used for the hair care products most of the time. The ingredient will be under 2% in hair care products due to the disinfectant effect.
1.      Stearyl trimethyl ammonium chloride
2.      Cetryl Trimethy Ammonium Chloride; Cetrimonium chloride, CTMAC
3.      Benzalkonium Chloride; Alkyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride

   Amphoteric surfactant
The reaction depends on the ph value of the environment. Melted in acid substance, it has the character of cationic surfactant. Melted in alkaline substance, it has the character of anionic surfactant. However, it is milder than the anionic and cationic surfactants. So it is suitable for the dry skin and baby care products.    

1.      Alkyl betain
2.      Cocoamidorpropy1 Bataine; CAPA, Lauramidopropyl Betain
It is often adjusted to 30% liquid including 6 % NaCl.
3.      Lmidazoline
 Acylamphoglycinate
                       2-Alkyl-N-Carboxy-methyl-N-Hydroxyethylimidazolinium betaine

76.factors for skin damage(1)

There are many factors that cause skin damage. How does the damage result? They may be from the UV light, pollution , and so on. For example, photoaging and free radical. Then the cells are influenced.   photoaging Sunlight will cause phtoaging. Chronically irradiated skin is metabolically hyperactive, thus giving rise to epidermal hyperplasia and neoplasia , increased production of elastic fibers (solar elastosis), accelerated breakdown and synthesis of collagen , and enhanced inflammatory processes. If DNA damaged and a mutation occurs in the gene, the keratinocytes may lose their ability. Free radical and antioxidants Stratum corneum is frequently and directly exposed not only to UVR but also to other outside forces such as air pollutants, chemical oxidants, smoking, and microorganisms . They are the resources of free radicals . If the protection is insufficient, oxidative damage may occur . Then the chronic accumulation of such deviated cell components may result in t

75.The relations of UV light and the molecular in the skin

The relations of UVlight and the molecular in the skin How do light damage skin? Light consists of a spectrum of photons which contain energy that vary according to the wavelength.  The light interacts on the molecular and then changes their chemical structure or on the subatomic level by creating free radicals. Otherwise, not only UV light but also green, blue, and violet light can damage cells. A photon’s energy can be absorbed into the molecule which is then altered. As the absorption of energy, it can also result in electron changes with the generation of free radicals. A free radical is in fact simply an atom with an unpaired electron that starts up a destructive concatenation of chemical reactions. It may end up causing damage in the cell membranes or in the DNA of the cell. The following are the reaction after exposure to UVB, UVA, and blue light. The influence of increased free radical activity DNA strand breaks occur from increased free radical activity. W e
