Description

[Technical Field]

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

[0002] There are various types of cosmetics, such as water-based, oil-based, and emulsion-type cosmetics. Among these, oil-based cosmetics have excellent aesthetic appeal due to their transparent appearance, and are widely used as cleansing cosmetics and leave-in-bath hair cosmetics such as hair oils, taking advantage of the properties of oils by containing a large amount of oil.

[0003] Oily hair cosmetics, such as conventional hair oils, are often used on dry hair and are therefore unsuitable for wet hair after shampooing, rinse-off conditioners, or treatments. This is due in part to the fact that oily hair cosmetics containing large amounts of oily agents do not blend well with wet hair. To address the issue of poor blendability into wet hair, a hair cosmetic technology has been disclosed that, for example, contains a phosphate-crosslinked starch derivative, a tertiary amine surfactant, and an organic acid having 3 to 6 carbon atoms, and when applied to wet hair, it quickly blends into wet hair as a cream-like formulation (see, for example, Patent Document 1). However, emulsion-type hair cosmetics have the drawback of being opaque in appearance and containing a relatively reduced amount of oily agent, thereby impairing the characteristics of oily hair cosmetics, such as non-stickiness and gloss.

[0004] Furthermore, as cosmetics containing a large amount of oil, highly oil-containing aqueous cosmetics in which a large amount of oil is held in a polyhydric alcohol have also been studied. For example, a technology for a highly oil-containing aqueous cosmetic that contains a specific amount of oily component, a specific amount of polyhydric alcohol, a nonionic surfactant having a sterol skeleton, carotenoids, and a specific amount of water, and that exhibits an excellent makeup removal effect when massaged, has been disclosed (e.g., Patent Document 2). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2019-182807 [Patent Document 2] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2015-193546 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] However, the technology disclosed in Patent Document 1 has excellent compatibility with wet hair, but is insufficient in terms of usability such as non-dripping, non-stickiness, and long-lasting gloss. Furthermore, because it is an emulsion type, no consideration was given to the transparency of the appearance. Furthermore, the technology disclosed in Patent Document 2 does not mention compatibility with wet hair, sustained gloss, or stability over time. Furthermore, the technology in Patent Document 2 relates to cleansing cosmetics, and does not take into consideration hair cosmetics, particularly leave-in hair cosmetics.

[0007] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a cosmetic that has excellent compatibility with wet hair, and also has excellent usability and stability over time. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] In view of these circumstances, the present inventors have conducted extensive research and have found that the above-mentioned problems can be solved by a cosmetic composition containing a polyhydric alcohol having a refractive index of 1.42 to 1.47, a silicone oil, a specific amount of a nonionic surfactant having an HLB of 7 or more, an amphiphilic polymer, and a specific amount of water, wherein the mass ratio of the silicone oil to the polyhydric alcohol is within a specific range, thereby completing the present invention.

[0067] [Evaluation method 1: Ability to blend into wet hair, non-dripping, non-stickiness, and long-lasting shine] Regarding the ease of application to wet hair, non-dripping, non-stickiness, and lasting shine, 20 members of a panel of cosmetic evaluation specialists were asked to apply each sample to towel-dried wet hair after washing, and evaluate and assign scores according to the following evaluation criteria. The average score was calculated from the total scores of all panelists for each sample, and the results were judged according to the four-level evaluation criteria below. The compatibility with wet hair was evaluated based on how well the product spread to the ends of wet hair when applied. The non-dripping property was evaluated by checking whether each sample dripped from the hand or between the fingers when picked up. Regarding non-stickiness, each sample was applied to hair, which was then dried with a hair dryer, and evaluated based on whether the hair was free of stickiness or clumpiness. Regarding the duration of shine, the hair was dried with a hair dryer after application and evaluated to see whether the shine persisted even 10 hours after application.

[0068] [5-point rating scale] [Score]:[Evaluation result] 5 points: very good 4 points: Good 3 points: Neither 2 points: slightly poor 1 point: Defective [4-level evaluation criteria] [Judgment]: [Average score] A (excellent): 4.5 points or more B (Good): 3.25 points or more to less than 4.5 points C (slightly unacceptable): 2.0 points or more to less than 3.25 points D (Fail): Less than 2.0 points

[0069] [Evaluation method 2: Stability over time] Each sample of Examples 1 to 18 and Comparative Examples 1 to 7 was left to stand in a thermostatic chamber at 50°C or 15°C for one month, and the state of each sample was evaluated on a 5-point scale according to the following evaluation criteria, and each sample was given a score. Next, the average score for each temperature was judged according to the following criteria.

[0070] [5-point rating scale] [Score]:[Evaluation result] 5 points: No change at all 4 points: Almost no change 3 points: There is a change in appearance, but the oily components have not separated 2 points: Oil-based ingredients are oozing out onto the surface 1 point: Oily and watery components are separated [4-level evaluation criteria] [Judgment]: [Average score] A (excellent): 4.5 points or more B (Good): 3.5 points or more to less than 4.5 points C (slightly unacceptable): 1.5 points to less than 3.5 points D (Fail): Less than 1.5 points
