국가별 베이스 메이크업 제품의 색상 비교

요약

목적

국내에 출시된 한국산 및 수입산 베이스 메이크업 제품의 색상을 비교함으로써 커버력에 대한 효과를 측정하고자 한다.

방법

L*a*b* 값의 비교를 위해 Bioskin plate에서 분광광도계를 이용하여 전후 데이터를 측정하고, 각 국가 별 제품의 평균 수치와 표준 편차를 계산하였으며, 통계로 검증하였다.

결과

한국산 제품의 밝기는 23.5%로 수입산 제품인 9.1%에 비해 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 붉은기 커버력도 한국산 제품이 27.2%로 수입산 제품인 23.0%에 비해 높은 것으로 나타났으나, 노란기 커버력은 한국산 제품이 17.3%로 수입산 제품인 32.3%에 비해 낮은 것으로 나타났다.

결론

한국산 제품은 한국 여성의 선호도를 반영한 밝기와 붉은기 커버력에서 강점을 보였고, 수입산 제품은 상대적으로 더 내추럴하게 발색되는 서양인의 선호도가 반영된 것으로사 료된다.

Abstract

Purpose

This study aimed to investigate the complexion preference of Korean women by comparing the colors of Korean and foreign-made base makeup products.

Methods

A square test area measuring 2×2 cm was marked on a Bioskin plate for comparison of “before” and “after” measurements. The before data were measured using a spectrophotometer in triplicate at the same position to take into account any deviation. L*a*b* values for Korean and foreign-made products were measured, and the mean and standard deviation were calculated and compared for significance.

Results

The L* improvement rates of the Korean products were higher than those of foreign-made products (23.5% versus 9.1%), and the a* improvement rates of the Korean products were also higher (27.2% versus 23.0%), but the b* improvement rates of the Korean products were lower than those of the foreign-made products (17.3% versus 32.3%).

Conclusion

Korean products better reflect Korean consumers’ preference for toning up. The imported products featured a transparent and natural color development. Traditionally, European companies have focused on the needs of people with whiter skin than Asians, and therefore, the imported products might be toned to mask yellow complexions as much as possible and develop bluish tones.

Introduction

The earliest evidence for the use of makeup by humans comes from clam shells found in the southern Spanish region of Murcia. In these shells, a putative cosmetic substance that was apparently used as a foundation was found, consisting of a red powder mixed with a yellow pigment and a black mineral. This may be the first evidence that 50,000 years ago, Neanderthals made makeup using pigments and applied it to decorate themselves supporting the claim that they used fire, made stoneware, had a culture surrounding burial, and were a race of considerable intelligence (Zilhão et al ., 2010).
The period over which human beings have used makeup is thus very long, and although the purpose of makeup has varied, its use in modern times is now fairly consistent. Base makeup refers to products that cover defects and flaws in the skin, such as freckles, while also changing the skin color according to the user's taste, giving gloss, elasticity, and transparency to the skin (Lee, 2005). While base makeup products are applied to the entire facial skin surface, point makeup products serve to highlight a specific area (Fabricant & Gould, 1993; quoted in Kim et al ., 2004).
A product in use today, created by a German dermatologist was originally produced as a skin protection ointment to calm and cover the red spots that accompanied the peeling procedure used in hospitals to treat patients had skin problems. This product, at first used only in hospitals was eventually released as a general cosmetic in 1960, and official imports to Korea began in 1983. However, in 2006, a Korean cosmetics company launched its own version of this "blemish balm" (BB) cream which became more famous than the original product, proving an unprecedented success (Kim et al ., 2011; Kim & Jeong, 2011). BB cream is a newly reinterpreted product in Korea; in a survey (Park & Chin, 2010), only 2.3% of 360 people knew exactly what the initials BB stood for, whereas 45.7% did not.
Sahay & Piran (1997) reported that South Asian-Canadian female university students have strong desire to want light skin color than European-Canadian female university students, and moreover Kowner (2004) reported that Japanese women answered they want brighter skin, either. Thus, one effect of base makeup products is that they impart and change a color to the skin. Although there have been studies measuring color in the fashion industry, there has been little research to measure or compare the color of base makeup products. This study investigated color (using L*a*b* values) and improvement rates for some Korean and foreign-made base makeup products. In addition, we will analyze how well the existing toning colors appeal to Korean women by comparing the colors of the Korean products and foreign-made products with that of the BB cream already sold in the Korean market.

Methods

1. Instruments and materials

Urethane elastomer-based artificial skin (Bioskin plate #30; Beaulax, Japan) was used as a skin model. This model mimics the texture and elasticity of human skin and may be measured easily with a spectrophotometer. It is available in a plate form, in eight different skin colors, and is used not only for evaluating basic cosmetics, makeup products, and cleansers, but also for presenting objective data in applying for cosmetics-related patents (Nonomura & Yamaguchi, 2016).
A spectrophotometer (CM-2600d; Konica Minolta, Japan) was used to measure Bioskin plate L*a*b* values. SpectraMagic NX (CM-S100w; Konica Minolta, Japan) software was used to record measurements and provide a more comprehensive color analysis (Kim & Choi, 2018; Nakamura, 1998; Weatherall & Coombs, 1992; Yun et al ., 2010).
A four-sided film applicator (SH1107/80/1; Sheen Instruments, UK) with gap sizes of 30, 60, 90, and 120 μm was used to evenly apply BB cream on a Bioskin plate to the required application thickness. In general, the use of brushes, puffs, sponges, and so forth to apply makeup is unsatisfactory for research because of the variation in the user's touch and force applied, whereas the four-sided applicator in combination with the flat Bioskin plate reliably produced uniform coatings of the product (Kim & Park, 2013).
Product sample weight was measured with a digital electronic scale (EK-410i; A&D, Korea) to a resolution of 0.01 g.

2. Research product selection criteria

Eight different Korean and foreign-made BB cream products were selected and purchased in order to investigate which most closely matched the preference of Korean women for skin tone coloring.
The selection criteria for the products were as follows. First, as of January 2, 2018, the product had to be routinely produced or imported into Korea and could be freely purchased in retail situations. Second, the product's name had to include the initials "BB" so that the consumer could accurately identify it as BB cream, and the initials "BB" had to be clearly printed on the packaging and container. Third, to avoid testing BB creams produced by the same manufacturer under a different brand name, each cream had to be produced by a different manufacturer. Fourth, the product had to be available in only a single color (i.e., consumers had no choice of color) and classified under a single stock keeping unit to ensure that no other product existed with the same product name. Fifth, for the comparison between countries, four of those selected were produced in Korea and the remaining four were imported from Europe.
Tables 1 and 2 show product information, including ingredients, manufacturer, and manufacturer's address. Korean products are designated with a "K" and displayed in the order K#1, K#2, K#3, and K#4, and foreign-made products are designated with an "F" and displayed in the order F#1, F#2, F#3, and F#4.

3. Measurement method

In this study, Bioskin plate #30 was used, as this was the closest to Asians' skin color. After each use, the Bioskin plate was cleaned with the same cleansing cream and foaming cleanser and then allowed to dry completely. A square test area measuring 2×2 cm was marked on the Bioskin plate so that before and after measurements could be made at the same location (Shimizu & Nonomura, 2018; Sato et al ., 2016). The shade of the untreated Bioskin plate was measured in the same position with a spectrophotometer to record the base readings for later comparison against treatments.
For each BB cream, 2 g was placed inside the marked test square on the immobilized Bioskin plate, and the four-sided film applicator set at 30 μm thickness. One researcher, using the same force each time, drew the applicator over the plate to cover the test square (the measurement position) with a layer of BB cream. Spectrophotometer readings were then taken in triplicate for each cream, the readings were averaged, and the standard deviation was calculated. Comparison of L*a*b* values of Korean and foreign-made products was analyzed for significant differences.

4. Instrumental analysis method

When comparing BB creams between countries, it was considered that the higher the L* value, the better the effect of brightening the skin tone. We also predicted that a BB cream with low negative a* values would be beneficial for covering redness of the skin and that a cream with low negative b* values would disguise yellow facial shades and give skin a healthy appearance. For the analysis of the measurements of skin appearance, the paired-sample t-test was used. Improvement rates were calculated using the following formula:
Improvement rates (%) = (After-Before)Before×100

5. Data analysis method

SPSS, version 18.0 (SPSS Inc., USA) was used after data coding for data processing, and results were considered significant at p <0.05.

Results

1. L*a*b* values and improvement rates among Korean products

The L* (effectiveness in lightness) values for the four Korean products weremeasured and the improvement rates were 27.2% for K#1, 18.9% for K#2, 19.1% for K#3, and 28.6% for K#4. The L* values were all significantly higher than those of the untreated Bioskin plate (p =0.003). The improvement rates of a* values (effectiveness in covering redness) were 34.6% for K#1, 37.4% for K#2, 26.7% for K#3, and 9.7% for K#4. The a* values were all significantly higher than those of the untreated Bioskin plate (p =0.023). The improvement rates of b* values (effectiveness in covering yellowness) were 12.1% for K#1, 32.4% for K#2, 15.0% for K#3, and 9.4% for K#4. The b* values were all significantly higher than those of the untreated Bioskin plate (p =0.047; Table 3).

2. L*a*b* values and improvement rates among Foreignmade products

The L* values for the four foreign-made products were measured and improvement rates were 5.1% for F#1, 5.8% for F#2, 11.6% for F#3, and 13.7% for F#4. The L* values were all significantly higher than those of the untreated Bioskin plate (p =0.023). The improvement rates of a* values were 27.9% for F#1, 14.7% for F#2, 26.2% for F#3, and 23.0% for F#4. The a* values were all significantly higher than those of the untreated Bioskin plate (p =0.004). The improvement rates of b* values were 32.9% for F#1, 15.9% for F#2, 51.3% for F#3, and 29.2% for F#4. The b* values were all significantly higher than those of the untreated Bioskin plate (p =0.021; Table 4).

3. Comparison of effectiveness in lightness

The averages of L* values were calculated in order to compare improvement rates between Korean and foreign-made products. Korean products measured 58.62±0.23 for before and 72.37±3.13 for after, and the improvement rate was 23.5%, although foreign-made products measured 58.34±0.28 for before and 63.63±2.60 for after, and the improvement rate was 9.1% (Table 5).

4. Comparison of effectiveness in covering redness

The average of a* values was calculated in order to compare improvement rates between Korean and foreign-made products. Korean products measured 13.35±0.34 for before, and 9.72±1.56 for after, and the improvement rate was 27.2%, although foreign-made products measured 13.10±0.05 for before and 10.09±0.76 for after, and the improvement rate was 23.0% (Table 5).

5. Comparison of effectiveness in covering yellowness

The average of b* values was calculated in order to compare improvement rates between Korean and foreign-made products. Korean products measured 23.11±0.19 for before and 19.12±2.30 for after, and the improvement rate was 17.3%, although foreign-made products measured 23.44±0.11 for before and 15.87±3.45 for after, and the improvement rate was 32.3% (Table 5).

Conclusion

L*a*b* values for Korean and foreign-made BB cream products were determined and compared using Bioskin plates. When comparing the L* values, effectiveness in lightness, the improvement rate of Korean and foreign-made products were 23.5 and 9.1%, respectively. This result suggests that Korean products better reflect the Korean consumers' preference for toning up. The imported products featured a transparent and natural color development. When comparing the effectiveness in covering redness, as measured by the a* value, the improvement rate of Korean products was higher than that of the foreign-made products (27.2% versus 23.0%). This result indicates that the Korean products were designed to neutralize skin redness and develop a green color when applied. This is analogous to the use of greenish makeup base products to cover the redness of skin troubled by acne. When comparing the b* values, effectiveness in covering yellowness, the improvement rates of the Korean and foreign-made products were 17.3 and 32.3%, respectively, indicating that the performance of the Korean products could be as low as 50% of that of imported products. Although the imported products used in this study were released into the domestic market targeting Korean consumers, they were produced by European manufacturers. Traditionally, European companies have focused on the needs of people with whiter skin than Asians; therefore, the imported products might be formulated to mask yellow complexions as much as possible and develop bluish tones.
