Cosmetic composition comprising steamed root extract of Acanthopanax senticosus for protecting photo-damaged skin

摘要

The present invention relates to a composition containing a steamed Eleutherococcus senticosus (Rupr. & Maxim.) Maxim. root extract. The steamed Eleutherococcus senticosus (Rupr. & Maxim.) Maxim. root extract contains a large amount of coniferin compounds compared to an extract obtained by extracting unsteamed common Eleutherococcus senticosus (Rupr. & Maxim.) Maxim. roots, and also excellently absorbs or blocks ultraviolet (UV), thereby being easily useful as pharmaceutical or cosmetic compositions for protecting skin from photodamage.
