Cosmetic composition comprising double-shell nano-structure

Abstract

Disclosed is a cosmetic composition having a double-shell type nano-structure. More particularly, the nano-structure of the cosmetic composition includes: a water-soluble bioactive ingredient core; a core shell containing poly(ethyleneglycol)-poly(caprolactone)-poly(ethyleneglycol) (PE-PCL-PEG) triblock copolymer in order to include the bioactive ingredient core therein; and an outer shell containing phospholipids or derivatives thereof in order to enclose the core shell therein. Such a cosmetic composition improves stability of active components which are prone to oxidation, light degradation, heat degradation, etc., is formed in a nanoparticle size which in turn shows high transdermal absorption and is very useful to prepare a cosmetic composition stably encapsulating various bioactive ingredients with anti-wrinkle effects, whitening effects, and so forth.
