Description

Cosmetic composition containing edelweiss water and edelweiss callus extracellular vesicles The present invention relates to a cosmetic composition comprising edelweiss water and extracellular vesicles of edelweiss calluses. More specifically, the invention relates to a cosmetic composition that can help soothe and whiten the skin by comprising edelweiss water distilled with hot spring water and extracellular vesicles of edelweiss calluses. The human body contains about 72% water, which keeps the skin moist and plays a role in gently protecting it. Therefore, maintaining moisture in the skin is a crucial factor for having healthy skin and is likely the most fundamental factor in counteracting the weakening of the skin's resistance over time. The aforementioned moisture is important for maintaining skin elasticity and flexibility by being adequately retained in the stratum corneum, and normal skin contains about 30% moisture or water-soluble components. The skin is a tissue that is always in contact with the external environment, and its primary function is to act as a protective barrier that prevents fluid leakage, infection, and moisture loss. The stratum corneum is the outermost layer of the skin and plays an important role in preventing skin dryness by inhibiting the loss of moisture and electrolytes to the outside, providing an environment for normal biochemical metabolism, protecting the body from external physical damage and chemicals, and preventing bacteria, fungi, and viruses from invading the skin. There are three routes of absorption through the skin: absorption through the stratum corneum, absorption through hair follicles and sebaceous glands, and absorption through sweat glands. The delivery of bioactive molecules through the skin is subject to various limitations due to the structural and physical characteristics of the skin, and to date, absorption through the stratum corneum is known to be the most important absorption route. In particular, the stratum corneum forms a dense structure in the outermost layer of the skin as keratinocytes, the main constituent cells of the skin, undergo natural death. It inhibits not only the evaporation of moisture but also the penetration of external substances, and exhibits an acidity of around pH 5 due to sweat and various lipid components. To penetrate this stratum corneum barrier, a molecule must have a small molecular weight of 1,000 or less and possess lipophilic properties.

The present invention relates to a cosmetic composition comprising edelweiss water and edelweiss callus extracellular vesicles, comprising edelweiss water, edelweiss callus extracellular vesicles, and exosomes. Edelweiss is an alpine plant belonging to the Asteraceae family that primarily inhabits dry areas. Containing leontopodic acid, flavonoids, and phytosterols, edelweiss offers excellent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, as well as superior soothing and irritation relief for the skin. Furthermore, it strengthens the skin barrier to prevent moisture loss and keep the skin hydrated, while its UV-blocking function makes it effective in preventing skin damage caused by ultraviolet rays. Edelweiss water can be extracted by distilling hot spring water from th
