The characters of surfactant


The characters of surfactant

Decrease the surface tension
The interfacial tension reaches the lowest value at the saturation of CMC (Critical micelle concentration). It also is an indicator to design the suitable surfactants adding in detergents.
 Solubilization
It means two different substances are immiscible in the beginning. They will be miscible after adding the third substance. It is called solubilization. For cosmetics and skincare products, they usually add surfactants as the third substance. The spice is immiscible with water, for example. Adding the suitable surfactant in spice and water for solubilization become lotion products.    
Emulsification
The two liquids are immiscible originally. But adding the third substance will let one of the two liquids become 0.2-50u particles separated in the other liquid.
The phenomenon is called emulsification. The mixed liquid is emulsion. And the third substance is called emulsifier. For cosmetics and skincare products, the third substance is surfactant.
How to maintain the stable emulsification is a crucial consideration for cosmetics and skincare products.

The emulsification has two types.
1.      Oil-in-water
Oil more soluble in water
Ex. milk
2.      Water-in-oil
Water more soluble in oil
Ex. butter

ITA0 (individual typology angle)

ITA 0 (individual typology angle) (Wikipedia, color space conversions, Adrian Ford and Alan Roberts, Aug.11, 1998) ITA values were calculated from spectrocolorimeter (Datacolor) mea­surements of the L* (Luminance) and b* (yellow/blue component) parameters. This value is based on CIELab of the CIE system. The CIE has defined a system that classifies color according to the HVS (the human visual system). This system is called color space which is in combination with physical device profiling, it allows for reproducible representations of color, in both   analog   and   digital   representations. A color is thus usually specified using three co-ordinates, or parameters. These parameters describe the position of the color within the color space being used. They do not tell us what the color is, that depends on what color space is being used. There are more than one color spaces for the applications. This is because different color spaces are better for different applications, for

skin color type_ITA There are many methods to detect the skin health, skin surface properties, skin color, skin color type, and hair conditions. They are non-intrusive. The following is the method to figure out the skin color type.  Skin color type 1.    Fizpatrick skin types Questionnaire designed by Dr. Thomas B. Fitpatrick in 1975. Fizpatrick skin types Type I       Celtic type                   0-150 Type II.    Caucasian white          50-250 Type III    Mixed type                 100-350 Type IV    Mediterranean type    150-500 Type V     Asian/ Indian skin      150-650 Type VI    Black skin                  600-999 2.    ITA 0 (individual typology angle) calculation CIE colorimetry =[Arc Tangent ((L*-50)/b*)] x 180/ π Very light                  ITA 0  > 55 0 Light                 40 0 < ITA 0 <55 0 Intermediate      28 0 < ITA 0 <41 0 Tan/matt            10 0 < ITA 0 <28 0 Brown              -30 0 < ITA

The skin Adnexa Hair Nail Sweat gland sebaceous gland   nail structure nail matrix, nail root, proximal matrix, nail plate matrix nail plate, nail body nail bed, distal matrix, nail bed matrix white lunula proximal nail fold eponychium, cuticle hyponychium  Nail has similar function of the   Stratum corneum in skin. Because this part does't have  Melanocyte  i n stratum basale, the nail is transparent. The nail care is like the skin care should to prevent damage the  Cormeocyte which is appearance of nail. As it is damaged, It will lose the protection and need   more time to recover than skin. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- help to find the specific skincare product ingredients by "skin+" App
