Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This disclosure relates to cosmetics. [Background technology]

[0002] Oil-in-water emulsions are favored as cosmetic bases because their outer phase (continuous phase), i.e., the phase that first touches the skin, is the aqueous phase, resulting in a refreshing feel. Various attempts are being made to improve these oil-in-water emulsion bases to create cosmetics with an even better feel, while taking advantage of their characteristics.

[0003] For example, it has been disclosed that an oil-in-water emulsion composition containing a higher alcohol, a polyoxyethylene alkyl ether, and a glycerin monoalkyl ether in specific ratios has a refreshing, non-sticky feel and can also provide excellent firmness (see Patent Document 1).

[0004] On the other hand, niacinamide, a type of vitamin B, is used as an ingredient in topical medications to treat acne (acne vulgaris) and is also incorporated into cosmetics for cosmetic purposes. In Japan, it is approved as an effective ingredient in quasi-drug cosmetics for improving blemishes and wrinkles. It is known that niacinamide needs to be included at a concentration of 3% by mass or more to improve blemishes and wrinkles. [Prior art documents] [Patent Documents]

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2012-31088 [Overview of the project] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]

[0006] The objective of this disclosure is to provide a cosmetic product that is non-sticky, blends well with the skin, and has a smooth feel. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] To solve the above problems, the cosmetic composition according to this disclosure contains (A) 0.1% to 5% by mass of a glycine derivative represented by formula (1) or a salt thereof, (B) niacin or a derivative thereof, (C) a higher alcohol having 14 to 22 carbon atoms, (D) a hydrophilic polyoxyethylene alkyl ether, and (E) a glycerin monoalkyl ether.

[0008] [ka] (In the formula, R 1 and R 2 Each of these independently represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, an alkenyl group, an aryl group, an aralkyl group, an aminomethylcarbonyl group, an amidino group, an alkylcarbonyl group, an alkenylcarbonyl group, an arylcarbonyl group, or an aralkylcarbonyl group, and R 3 R represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, an alkenyl group, an aryl group, or an aralkyl group. However, the R 1 , the R 2 , and the R 3 (They cannot all become hydrogen atoms at the same time.) [Effects of the Invention]

[0009] According to this disclosure, it is possible to provide a cosmetic product that is non-sticky, blends well with the skin, and has a smooth feel. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0010] The embodiments of this disclosure will be described in detail below. However, the embodiments are not limited to the following description and can be modified as appropriate without departing from the gist of this disclosure.

On the other hand, by blending a specific amount of the glycine derivative represented by formula (1) or a salt thereof, it has been found that the feeling of use such as stickiness and skin affinity can be significantly improved, and the smoothness is excellent.

[0013] <(A) Glycine derivative represented by formula (1) or a salt thereof> The cosmetic according to one embodiment contains a glycine derivative represented by formula (1) or a salt thereof (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “component (A)”).
