Abstract
In this study, the physical properties and skin-health functions of nonwoven cosmetics
treated with microcapsules containing citrus-flavored horse oil (CFHO) were investigated
to determine the effects of treatment conditions, such as microcapsule diameter and
bath concentration. From the results, a large diameter was found to have less influence on
the mechanical properties, as it contributed to the lower stiffness and smoothness of the
treated nonwoven material. Even though both microcapsule concentration and diameter
influenced the released quantity of CFHO, diameter had a more significant effect on CFHO
release. The CFHO-contained microcapsules appeared to generate excellent antimicrobial
activities in the treated nonwoven cosmetics when the concentrations exceeded 250%. In
vivo test results showed that large microcapsule diameters increased the quantity of skin
sebum. The findings of this study could be applied in the development of dermally functional
nonwoven cosmetic products.
