During the second temperature increase, the variation in the difference between the amount of electrical power absorbed by the empty crucible and the amount of electrical power absorbed by the crucible containing the wax sample is measured as a function of temperature. The melting point of the compound is the temperature value corresponding to the peak of the curve representing the variation in the difference in the amount of electrical power absorbed as a function of temperature.

(2) Mix the components in column B of Table 1 at 75 to 80 °C to form a homogeneous mixture (phase B). (3) Add the homogeneous mixture (Phase B) to the homogeneous mixture (Phase A), and then homogenize them at 75 - 80 °C to obtain a homogeneous mixture (Phases A and B). (4) Add the components in Column C of Table 1 to the homogeneous mixture (Phases A and B), and then homogenize them at 75 - 80 °C to obtain a homogeneous mixture (Phases A, B, and C). (5) Cool the homogeneous mixture (Phases A, B, and C) to 30 °C.

(7) Cool the homogeneous mixture (Phases A - F) to room temperature to obtain a composition according to any one of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1 - 3.

[0240] The numerical values of the amounts of the components shown in Table 1 are all based on the "mass %" of the raw materials. (a) - (g) in Table 1 correspond to those in the claims.

[0241]

Table 2A

[0242]

Table 2B

[0243] [Evaluation] (Penetration feeling) Five professional sensory testers evaluated the "penetration feeling" after applying the compositions according to Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1 - 3. Each sensory tester took each composition, applied it to their own face, evaluated the penetration feeling during application, rated it from 1 (extremely poor) to 5 (extremely good), and then classified it into the following four categories based on the average of the ratings. Extremely good: 5.0 - 4.0 (Penetration feeling is felt during application) Good: 3.9 - 3.0 (Some penetration feeling is felt during application) Poor: 2.9 - 2.0 (Almost no penetration feeling is felt during application) Extremely poor: 1.9 - 1.0 (No sense of penetration during coating)

[0244] The results are shown in Table 1.

[0245] (Rich feel) Five professional sensory testers evaluated the "rich feel" after applying the compositions according to Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1 - 3. Each sensory tester took each composition, applied it to their face, evaluated the rich feel (rich texture) after application, rated it from 1 (extremely poor) to 5 (extremely good), and then classified it into the following four categories based on the average of the ratings. Extremely good: 5.0 - 4.0 (Richness is felt after application) Good: 3.9 - 3.0 (Some richness is felt after application) Poor: 2.9 - 2.0 (Almost no richness is felt after application) Extremely poor: 1.9 - 1.0 (No richness is felt after application)

[0246] The results are shown in Table 1.

[0247] (Stability) Each composition according to Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1 - 3 was filled into glass bottles and kept for 2 months under temperature change conditions of 4°C, 25°C, 40°C, and 45°C. Then, each sample was inspected for the degree of change (transparency, color, odor, and pH) and evaluated according to the following criteria. Extremely good: Almost the same state as at the time of manufacture. Good: Almost no change in transparency, color, odor, and pH was observed. No separation, creaming, or change in appearance was observed either. Poor: Changes in transparency, color, odor, and pH were clearly observed. Separation, creaming, and crystallization were also clearly observed. Extremely poor: Changes in transparency, color, odor, and pH were significantly observed. Separation, creaming, and crystallization were significantly observed.

[0248] The results are shown in Table 1.

[0249] (Abstract) As is clear from Table 1, the composition according to the present invention (Example 1) was able to provide both a good sense of penetration and a rich feel, and was stable under temperature changes for two months, which may be due to the combination of components (a), (b), (c) and (d).

[0250] Therefore, the composition according to the present invention can provide an excellent texture and, in particular, long-term stability even under temperature changes.

[0251] Cetearyl alcohol and cetyl alcohol as component (e) in the composition according to Example 1 can be considered non-essential since they are merely fatty substances.

[0252] Sunflower seed wax / sunflower seed cerin in the composition according to Example 1 can also be considered non-essential since they are merely fatty substances.

[0253] Also, polyglycerin-3 and tocopherol in the composition according to Example 1 can be considered non-essential since the amount of each of these components is very small.

[0254] On the other hand, the compositions according to Comparative Examples 1 and 3 that do not contain component (a) showed a poor touch in terms of permeability and instability.

[0255] The composition according to Comparative Example 2 that does not contain components (b) and (c) showed a texture inferior in terms of a rich feel and instability.
