Abstract;Pantyhose suggest a concept as 'trying to be beautiful by wearing'. It evolves with function as wearable cosmetic. We develop and sell pantyhose containing amino acid. There is thin film in eggshell "eggshell membrane" It is said that this eggshell membrane increases type III collagen, we focus the theme of improving elasticity of skin, and developed pantyhose containing eggshell membrane. At the beginning we confirmed a rate of type III collagen increases by culturing human fibroblast, and analyzing collagen. We also confirmed eggshell membrane powder sticks to pantyhose by electron microscope. Putting the film of eggshell powder on pantyhose was made in the process of topical finish so that active ingredients come to skin. We estimated elasticity of skin using cutometer, we found it improves suppleness of skin by long term wearing. We conclude amino acid ingredient of eggshell membrane permeates into skin and increases type III collagen, so the effect of improving elasticity of skin is expected. The new ideas of the general function of pantyhose don't likely to come out in recent rush of high function product development in thin fiber industry, but nowadays new material and technique are constantly born in every field, we would like to keep developing attractive goods for consumers from now on.
