Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to an oil-in-water type emulsion composition and a wiping cosmetic containing the oil-in-water type emulsion composition.
Background Art
[0002] In an emulsion composition used on the face, it is important that there is no slippery feeling when spreading the emulsion composition uniformly on the skin, there is no dry feeling of the skin after application, and the moisturizing feeling of the skin is maintained, and the texture of the skin is improved. Here, the slippery feeling means that when an emulsion cosmetic is taken on a fingertip or the like and applied to the face, it feels as if a liquid oil agent is being stretched and spreads indefinitely on the skin, and there is no real feeling of stretching while the emulsion composition adheres to the skin.
[0003] Regarding the lack of a slippery feeling when applying to the skin, it has long been known that adding a pigment to an emulsion composition increases the adhesion to the skin. For example, as disclosed in Non-Patent Document 1, a combination of inorganic pigments such as mica and talc has been widely used. However, when the above-mentioned inorganic pigments are used in combination with the emulsion composition, although the slippery feeling during application of the emulsion composition can be reduced, there are problems such as a dry feeling and a peculiar crunching feeling after application to the skin, so that the moisturizing feeling does not last. Therefore, an emulsion composition that reduces the slippery feeling when applied to the skin and maintains the moisturizing feeling without giving a dry feeling is desired.

[0035] The average of all panelists was marked as ◎ if it was 4 points or more, ○ if it was 3 points or more, △ if it was 2 points or more, and × if it was less than 2 points.
[0036] (Evaluation Criteria) Persistence of Moisture Feeling 5 points: The persistence of moisture feeling after application was felt sufficiently. 4 points: The moisturizing feeling after application could be felt. 3 points: The moisturizing feeling after application could be felt slightly. 2 points: The moisturizing feeling after application could hardly be felt. 1 point: The moisturizing feeling after application could not be felt.
[0037] For the average of all panels, those with 4 points or more were rated as ◎, 3 points or more as ○, 2 points or more as △, and less than 2 points as ×.
[0038] <Evaluation test for improving the texture of the skin> For 5 evaluation panelists, a test on the effect of improving the texture was carried out using the face (part: cheek). A combined test was conducted for 4 weeks, applying an appropriate amount of the skin cosmetic of the present invention to one cheek (either left or right) and pure water to the other cheek twice a day. The texture state of the same part of the cheek before and after the combined use was observed with a microscope (manufactured by KEYENCE CORPORATION, VHX-1000), and the changes in the depth, size, and isotropy of the texture were measured visually. The evaluation of the effect of improving the texture was scored on a 5-point scale for each of the two items of "width of the skin groove" and "height of the unevenness of the skin groove / skin ridge" as shown below. Furthermore, the total value of the scores for the two items was calculated using the following formula and evaluated based on the following evaluation criteria. The results are shown in a table. Effect of improving the texture (points) = ((Evaluation reference points for the width of the skin) + (Evaluation reference for the height of the unevenness of the skin groove / skin ridge)) ÷ 2
[0039] <Evaluation criteria for the width of the skin groove> 5 points... The width of the skin groove became narrower. 4 points... The width of the skin groove became slightly narrower. 3 points... No change was observed in the width of the skin groove. 2 points... The width of the skin groove became slightly wider. 1 point... The width of the skin groove became wider.
[0040] <Evaluation criteria for the height of the unevenness of the skin groove / skin ridge> 5 points...
