Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a solid powder cosmetic preparation. [Background technology]

[0002] Solid powder cosmetics are produced by mixing oily ingredients with powder and then pulverizing and compressing the mixture to form a solid powder. Studies have been conducted to improve the feel of the product when applied and to obtain a glossy finish. For example, Patent Document 1 describes that a solid powder cosmetic obtained by pressure molding a powder cosmetic containing plate-shaped powder with a specific aspect ratio while irradiating it with ultrasonic waves has excellent gloss, usability, and stability on the cosmetic surface and coating film.
