[0004] An object of the present invention is to solve the above problems, and specifically, to provide an oil-in-water type sunscreen cosmetic that has good ultraviolet ray protection ability, has no squeaking feeling during application, has excellent usability such as skin affinity, and has stability over time.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0005] As a result of intensive studies, the present inventors have found that an oil-in-water type emulsified cosmetic capable of solving the above problems can be obtained by combining and blending a higher fatty acid salt, a surfactant other than the higher fatty acid salt, an ultraviolet absorber, and a paste-like oil agent, and have completed the present invention.

[0006] That is, the first invention of the present application is an oil-in-water type sunscreen cosmetic characterized by containing the following components (A) to (D). (A) Higher fatty acid salt: 0.5% by mass or more (B) Surfactant other than component (A): 0.5% by mass or more (C) Organic ultraviolet absorber (D) Oil agent other than component (C)

[0007] Preferably, the component (B) contains one or more selected from alkyl sulfate salts, fatty acid monoglycerides, polyoxyalkylene alkyl ether type nonionic surfactants, and fatty acid polyethylene glycol type nonionic surfactants, and it is an oil-in-water type sunscreen cosmetic.

[0008] More preferably, the component (D) is an oil agent in a paste (semi-solid) state at 25°C, and it is an oil-in-water type sunscreen cosmetic containing one or two selected from petrolatum and di(phytostearyl / isostearyl / cetyl / stearyl / behenyl) dimer dilinoleate.

Effect of the Invention

[0009] The oil-in-water type sunscreen cosmetic of the present invention has good ultraviolet protection ability, has no squeaking feeling during application, is excellent in the feeling of use such as skin compatibility, and is excellent in stability over time.

Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[0010] Hereinafter, the oil-in-water type sunscreen cosmetic of the present invention will be described in detail.

[0011] In this specification, "squeaking feeling" means feeling a catch on the skin during application, and "skin compatibility" means having no stickiness and having an appropriate moist feeling. Also, "stability over time" means maintaining an emulsified state without discoloration, odor change, or separation at 50°C for one month.

[0012] The oil-in-water type sunscreen cosmetic of the present invention contains the following components. (A) Higher fatty acid salt: 0.5% by mass or more (B) Surfactant other than component (A): 0.5% by mass or more (C) Organic UV absorber (D) Oil agent other than component (C)

[0013] <(A) Higher fatty acid salt> Component (A) used in the present invention is a higher fatty acid salt. The higher fatty acid salt is used to reduce the harsh feeling and improve the skin affinity.

[0014] Higher fatty acids are preferably those having 12 to 22 carbon atoms from the viewpoints of skin affinity and stability over time, and more preferably those having 12 to 18 carbon atoms. Specific examples include, for example, lauric acid, tridecylic acid, myristic acid, pentadecylic acid, palmitic acid, margaric acid, stearic acid, arachidic acid, behenic acid, isocaprylic acid, isopalmitic acid, isocapric acid, isoundecanoic acid, isolauric acid, isotridecyl acid, isomyristic acid, isopentadecylic acid, isopalmitic acid, isomargaric acid, isostearic acid, isononadecanoic acid, isoarachidic acid, isoheneicosanoic acid, isobehenic acid and the like.

[0015] Examples of the salt in the higher fatty acid salt include alkali metal salts such as sodium salt and potassium salt; alkanolamine salts such as monoethanolamine salt, diethanolamine salt and triethanolamine salt.

[0016] The blending amount of component (A) is 0.5% by mass or more, preferably 5.0% by mass or less, based on the mass of the water-in-oil type sunscreen cosmetic. If it is 0.5% by mass or more, the emulsion stability is improved, and if it is 5.0% by mass or less, the feel during use is good.

[0017] <(B) Surfactant other than component (A)> Component (B) used in the present invention is a surfactant other than component (A). Component (B) is used in combination with component (A) to improve the stability over time.

[0018] Examples of component (B) include alkyl sulfate salts, fatty acid monoglycerides, polyoxyalkylene alkyl ether type nonionic surfactants, and fatty acid polyethylene glycol type nonionic surfactants.

[0019] The blending amount of component (B) is 0.5% by mass or more, preferably 10% by mass or less, based on the mass of the water-in-oil type sunscreen cosmetic. If it is 0.5% by mass or more, the emulsion stability is good, and if it is 10% by mass or less, stickiness is less likely to be felt.

[0020] <(C) Organic UV absorber> Component (C) used in the present invention is an organic UV absorber, which may be either liquid or solid. Component (C) is used to protect the skin from harmful UV rays and the quality of cosmetics.

[0021] Examples of liquid organic UV absorbers include 2-ethylhexyl paramethoxycinnamate, 2-ethoxyethyl paramethoxycinnamate, isopropyl diisopropyl paramethoxycinnamate cinnamic acid ester mixture, methyl trimethoxycinnamate bis(trimethylsiloxy)silylisopentyl, amyl p-dimethylaminobenzoate, 2-ethylhexyl p-dimethylaminobenzoate, ethylene glycol salicylate, 2-ethylhexyl salicylate, benzyl salicylate, homomenthyl salicylate, octocrylene, dimethyldiethylbenzalmalonate, etc. Among these, 2-ethylhexyl paramethoxycinnamate, 2-ethylhexyl salicylate, homomenthyl salicylate, octocrylene, and dimethyldiethylbenzalmalonate are preferred, more preferably 2-ethylhexyl paramethoxycinnamate, octocrylene, and dimethyldiethylbenzalmalonate, and even more preferably 2-ethylhexyl paramethoxycinnamate. The liquid organic UV absorber can be contained alone or in an appropriate combination of two or more.

[0022] Examples of the solid organic ultraviolet absorber include hexyl 2-(4-diethylamino-2-hydroxybenzoyl)benzoate, 2,4-bis{[4-(2-ethylhexyloxy)-2-hydroxy]phenyl}-6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3,5-triazine, 2,4,6-tris[4-(2-ethylhexyloxycarbonyl)anilino]-1,3,5-triazine, 4-tert-butyl-4'-methoxydibenzoylmethane, and 2-ethylhexyl dimethoxybenzylidenedioxoimidazolidinepropionate. The solid organic ultraviolet absorber can be contained alone or in an appropriate combination of two or more kinds.

[0023] Among these, hexyl 2-(4-diethylamino-2-hydroxybenzoyl)benzoate, 2,4-bis{[4-(2-ethylhexyloxy)-2-hydroxy]phenyl}-6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3,5-triazine, 2,4,6-tris[4-(2-ethylhexyloxycarbonyl)anilino]-1,3,5-triazine, and 4-tert-butyl-4'-methoxydibenzoylmethane are preferable, and hexyl 2-(4-diethylamino-2-hydroxybenzoyl)benzoate, 2,4-bis{[4-(2-ethylhexyloxy)-2-hydroxy]phenyl}-6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3,5-triazine, and 2,4,6-tris[4-(2-ethylhexyloxycarbonyl)anilino]-1,3,5-triazine are more preferable.

[0025] (C) The blending amount of the component is preferably 1 to 30% by mass, more preferably 5 to 20% by mass or less, based on the mass of the water-in-oil type sunscreen cosmetic. If it is 1% by mass or more, a certain ultraviolet ray protection effect can be obtained, and if it is 30% by mass or less, a good feeling in use can be obtained without stickiness.

[0026] <(D) Oil agent other than component (C)> The component (D) used in the present invention is an oil agent other than the component (C). The component (D) is used to improve skin compatibility.

[0027] Examples of the oil agent other than the component (C) include, for example, liquid oils and oils in paste form (semi-solid) at 25°C. In particular, oils in paste form (semi-solid) at 25°C are preferred, and examples include petrolatum and di(phytostearyl / isostearyl / cetyl / stearyl / behenyl) dimer dilinoleate.
