Abstract: There are provided a promoter containing ginsenoside compound K for the production of hyaluronic acid, and more particularly, a new efficacy of 20-O-?-D-glucopyranosyl-20(S)-protopanaxadiol (compound K), a chief metabolite of ginseng saponin, to increase the expression of hyaluronic acid synthase gene in human cell and thereby to promote the production of hyaluronic acid, and an anti-aging agent containing the promoter for the production of hyaluronic acid as an effective ingredient.

Abstract: An emulsion composition of the invention has macro-sized (0.01 to 5 mm) lipid capsule particles and it is for a skin cosmetic composition. An emulsion composition of the invention exhibits improved stability for its particle size by adjusting a size of the particle through a combination of liquid phase oil and integument lipid or lipoid material and encapsulating the liquid phase oil with the integument lipid. The emulsion composition of the invention has unique outward appearance and use feeling due to the macro-sized particles in it, also exhibits excellent skin safety and moisture persistence by containing no surfactant and maintains an activity of an oleophilic effective ingredient which is apt to be oxidized for a long time.
