Recently, utilizing natural bioactive compounds for active ingredients in cosmetics has become a growing worldwide trend. More and more studies aim to identify the sources of herbal ingredients for applications in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic fields. Additionally, in order to optimize the safety of natural ingredients, choosing an environmentally friendly extraction method also plays an important role. In this work, an eco-friendly extraction technique for using microwave treatment and microwave-assisted extract (MA-DME) was investigated. The results indicate that higher yields of MA-DME were obtained than with conventional methods and that 's antioxidant properties were enhanced. Moreover, we found that MA-DME exhibited extraordinary antioxidant, anti-aging, and skin-whitening activities. We suggest MA-DME as a potential cosmeceutical ingredient than could be utilized for comprehensive protection of human skin.
近年来，将天然生物活性化合物用作化妆品中的活性成分已成为全球日益增长的趋势。越来越多的研究旨在确定用于制药和化妆品领域的草药成分来源。此外，为了优化天然成分的安全性，选择环保的提取方法也起着重要作用。在这项工作中，研究了一种使用微波处理和微波辅助提取（MA-DME）的环保提取技术。结果表明，与传统方法相比，MA-DME的产率更高，其抗氧化性能也得到了增强。此外，我们发现MA-DME具有出色的抗氧化、抗衰老和美白皮肤活性。我们建议将MA-DME作为一种潜在的药妆成分，可用于对人体皮肤的全面保护。
