Recently, K-Beauty has been challenged between technology-led Japanese cosmetics and price-driven Chinese one. Now, the only thing K-Beauty can choose is technology innovation. Genarally, cosmetics consisted of four categories of technologies: material, formulation, evaluation, and package. In this talk, we are going to introduce some polymer-related research items which are studying in COSMAX innovation lab. They are mainly focused on materials and formulation technology. For makeup cosmetics, we are developing temperature sensitive mascara using UCST property. And, we are studying O/W waterproof suncare formulation which based on PEG-PCL-PEG triblock polymer. Moreover, enhanced skin penetration system by colloidal packing structure and microcurrent cosmetics using piezoelectric property are going to be introduced. We wish all people who will attend this talk will understand how polymers contribute to the cosmetic industry. |
