A Study of the Antimicrobial Activities, Stability and Useless of Cosmetics Containing Fermented Salicornia herbacea Extracts

Due to the current trend of a healthy life and lifestyles of health and sustainability (LOHAS), people have become more interested in natural and fermented cosmetics. Therefore, this study has measured the antimicrobial activities of P. acnes, S. aureus and S. epidermidis and after making toner and essence with the fermented S. herbacea extracts, investigated the stability and usability of natural and fermented cosmetics. During the analysis of the antimicrobial activities of the fermented S. herbacea toner and essence, strong antimicrobial activities were observed concentration-dependently. Specifically, the antimicrobial activities were high on P. acnes in the toner and on S. aureus in the essence. With regard to stability pH and viscosity were the most unstable when both the toner and essence were exposed to the UV rays, and the most stable at -20℃. Except for spreading, color and absorption were relatively good according to an evaluation of the usability of the toner and essence, Therefore, it appears that it is necessary to improve spreading efficiency. Based on the positive results of the product in terms of antimicrobial activities, stability, and usability, this study concluded that the cosmetics made of fermented S. herbacea extracts are adequate for natural and fermented cosmetics.
