We hope to generate significant value by continuing to skillfully incorporate these kinds of outside strengths into our R&D.Softened CuticleAki KotakaResearch Strategy Promotion OfficeResearch Planning Group Manager350300250200150100H50FlakeEpidermisEffect of Matured Hop ExtractToward Creating New SynergyFANCL is already advancing research in order to utilize these results in the future. Following continuous-use tests in humans, we confirmed that adding matured hop extract to emulsions has the effect of tightening skin pores, for example. By developing this benefit, we expect to extend the use of matured hop extract to skin care products.29Applying Matured Hop Extract to CosmeticsThe antioxidant effect is one of the benefits of hops that was previously known. So, based on this knowledge, we anticipated that matured hop extract would also be beneficial for skin pores, and ultimately discovered it functioned to soften old keratin plugs and prevent sebum oxidation when we began exploring its possibilities. At around the same time, FANCL had been planning to renew its MILD CLEANSING OIL as one of its core products, so we launched a plan to add in matured hop extract. We immediately formed a project team and urgently proceeded with development. As part of this effort, in particular, we repeatedly made trial-and-error efforts to make it into a raw material. Matured hop extract is a suspension*, however, so when it is in a state that leaves behind powder in the raw material, it produces surface roughness when blended into cosmetics. So, we really struggled with how to dissolve this material while maintaining its active ingredients.IntroductionUltimately, we were able to skillfully meld the technologies the Kirin Group possesses to create raw materials as food additives with our know-how in creating pharmaceutical raw materials, and successfully commercialized the results. That this result emerged from all of the project members participating in this collaboration ManagementSustainabilityKeratin SwellingData SectionPore structure
