Abstract

Objectives : We investigated the physiological effects of the cosmetic products with Saccharomyces fermented modified Kyungohkgo extract (SFKE) for 6 weeks on human skin by using non-invasive instruments. Methods : We measured physiological effects such as a skin moisturizing effect, an elasticity and an evenness on the skin of older than 40 years volunteers(female, n=25) who were applied with the cosmetic products containing SFKE for 6 weeks. Results : We observed the physiological effect after using the cosmetic products for 6 weeks. After using the cosmetic product, the skin moisture contents were increased in human skin. The skin elasticity were not only increased in face skin through using the product, but also evenness of skin were improved. Conclusions : We concluded that the cosmetic products containing the SFKE had and physiological effects on the human face skin.
