Purpose: With the increased interest in skincare and consumption of natural products, the improvement of expectations for internal health and external beauty has also affected the Do It Yourself (DIY) cosmetics market. Therefore, this study aimed to present the possibility of future development of DIY cosmetics through experiments that compare and analyze the effects of DIY cosmetics made by the company itself with high-priced cosmetics in the market. Methods: Six women in their 20s and 30s with oil and moisture deficiency type dry skin were tested by dividing the cheeks into the application group of expensive marketing cosmetics and DIY cosmetics and then comparing the values of oil and moisture in these groups. Results: In the variation on the increase in oil volume after experimentation, the application group of DIY cosmetics had a statistical significance of p=0.004 (* p<0.05), and the application group of commercial cosmetics had a significance of p=0.002 (* p<0.05). Therefore, both groups showed statistically significant increases in oil content, resulting in significant increase in oil volume after experimentation. After the experiment, both groups showed a statistically significant increase in moisture (p=0.001 (* p<0.05) for the DIY cosmetics group and p=0.000 (* p<0.01) for commercial cosmetics group). Conclusion: Through this study, it has been verified that there is no difference in efficacy between DIY cosmetics and expensive cosmetics, and we hope to present the development potential of DIY cosmetics that are safer and more effective through various studies in the future.
This paper reviews the literature focusing on changes in skin conditions after vaccination following the pandemic of COVID-19. This review paper is a critical literature review, and a narrative review approach has been used for this study. A total of 588 references were selected using representative journal search websites such as PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, ResearchGate, which a total of 44 papers were selected in the final stage based on 2021 to 2022. There are many side effects after vaccination, some recover over time and some do not. It was briefly reviewed in Johnson syndrome, Acquired hemophilia A, and Vasculitis flare. The idea is that the COVID-19 pandemic is putting people at risk, and the vaccine to prevent it may not be safe. This article provides a positive view on the development of new vaccineenhancing technologies. The eradication of Covid-19 will require active efforts not only by medical staff and medical policies but also by patients themselves.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
