The present disclosure provides topical biophotonic materials and methods useful in phototherapy. In particular, the topical biophotonic materials of the present disclosure include a cohesive matrix, and at least one chromophore which can absorb and emit light from within the topical biophotonic material, wherein the topical biophotonic material is elastic. The topical biophotonic materials and the methods of the present disclosure are useful for promoting wound healing and skin rejuvenation, as well as treating acne and various other skin disorders.

There is provided a cosmetic which can moisturize the skin and exhibit a beautifying effect in low humidity environments while reducing sticky uncomfortable feelings in high humidity environments or sweaty states.

A moisturizing film cosmetic of the present disclosure comprises a polyvinyl alcohol film

Methods are disclosed for the collection and processing of amniotic material in animals. These methods involve collection of amniotic material directly during parturition or cesariean section in animals for the processing of regenerative wound treatments and tissue repairs without culturing or utilization of any excess manipulation of tissue. These materials are used to effect a cosmetic result.

Provided are methods of lightening skin by applying certain aromatic compounds or botanical extracts containing such compounds to the skin.

Provided is a nonwoven fabric for skin care products. The nonwoven fabric includes: a thermoplastic resin fiber having a single fiber diameter of 50 nm or more and 800 nm or less; and a cellulose fiber. A tensile strength of the cellulose fiber measured in accordance with JIS L 1015:2010 8.7.2 is 1.9 cN/dtex or less, a total content of the thermoplastic resin fiber and the cellulose fiber is 85% by mass or more relative to a total mass of the nonwoven fabric for skin care products, a content ratio by mass of the thermoplastic resin fiber and the cellulose fiber (thermoplastic resin fiber/cellulose fiber) is 0.23 to 1.50, and a density of the nonwoven fabric for skin care products is 0.08 g/cm.sup.3 to 0.16 g/cm.sup.3.

Provided are a cosmetic sheet including: a cosmetic layer configured in the form of a nanofiber web and melted by moisture by electrospinning a water-soluble polymer material and a functional material together; and a moisture retaining layer separably attached to the cosmetic layer and retaining the moisture of the cosmetic layer when wearing the cosmetic layer on the face and performing outdoor activities, to thus prevent moisture from drying out during the time the cosmetic layer is absorbed into the skin, when wearing the cosmetic sheet on the face and taking outdoor activities.

The present disclosure relates to a composition for preventing, alleviating or treating pruritus and/or atopy using an N-acetylamino acid or an N-acylamino acid having almost no side effects on the human body. Also, the present disclosure relates to a cosmetic composition for moisturizing skin or soothing skin. The composition of the present disclosure may be utilized to ameliorate a problematic skin condition caused by various causes, or to safely and effectively alleviate or treat pruritus and/or atopy without concern about side effects.

The present invention is a thin film patch to be attached to the skin and used for skin treatment or skin care. In particular, a water-soluble polymer compound is formed by means of melt spinning, melt blowing or electrospinning, into a water-soluble non-woven fabric of which the average diameter of fiber is 5 μm or less. The water-soluble non-woven fabric is coated with a coating agent comprising an active ingredient with a skin treatment or skin care effect; therefore, a thin film having the total thickness of 50 μm and the basis weight of 20 gsm or less is formed, wherein the water-soluble non-woven fabric has an electrically conductive material deposited thereon to have electrical conductivity and is connected to an electrode so that a current can be applied thereto.

The present application relates to a three-dimensional structure for carrying a cell culture medium, and a method for manufacturing a film comprising same, and, more specifically, to: a three-dimensional structure for carrying a cell culture medium, comprising both a three-dimensional structure capable of carrying the proteins of a cell culture medium, and a microporous structure capable of carrying functional materials; and a method for manufacturing a film comprising same.

A method of protecting an active ingredient before using as a skin treatment includes packaging the active ingredient in a water soluble polysaccharide. The package includes a substrate, comprising a first and second side configured to bring together the water soluble polysaccharide with the active ingredient and a hydrogel, wherein the first side includes the water soluble polysaccharide with the active ingredient on the exterior, and the second half includes the hydrogel on the exterior. Once brought into contact for a sufficient time to allow the polysaccharide to dissolve, at least the hydrogel layer with the infused active ingredient can be peeled from the substrate to use as a facial mask for treating the skin with the active ingredient.
