[0006] Oil-based cosmetic compositions having moderately hard properties, such as hair balms and hair clays, are known. These oil-based cosmetic compositions contain an oil component that is solid at 25°C to impart hardness to the oil-based cosmetic composition.

[0007] However, it is difficult to sufficiently improve the spreadability of conventional oil-based cosmetic compositions that contain oily ingredients that are solid at 25°C.

[0008] An object of the present invention is to provide a water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition that can spread better than an oil-based cosmetic composition having the same properties. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] The present inventors have conducted extensive research into cosmetic compositions that can spread better than oil-based cosmetic compositions having the same properties, even though they contain an oily component that is solid at 25° C. As a result, the present inventors have found that the above-mentioned problems can be solved by the following cosmetic composition.

[0010] The present invention provides a water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition comprising the following components (A), (B), (C), and (D), wherein the content of component (D) is 15.0 mass% or more and 50.0 mass% or less:

[0011] Component (A): An oily component that is solid at 25°C and has a melting point of 65°C or higher and 100°C or lower, selected from the group consisting of animal and vegetable oils and hydrocarbon oils. Component (B): An oily component that is liquid at 25°C and is selected from the group consisting of vegetable oils and fatty acid triglycerides. Component (C): A nonionic surfactant having a linear saturated alkyl chain with 13 or more carbon atoms and an HLB value of 2.8 or more and 8.0 or less. Ingredient (D): Water

[0012] The water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention preferably contains the following component (E).

[0014] The water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention preferably contains the following component (F).

[0015] Ingredient (F): Phosphate surfactant with an HLB value of more than 8.0 and less than 12.0

[0016] In the water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention, the content of the oily component that is liquid at 25°C and is selected from the group consisting of component (B) and ester oils, hydrocarbon oils, and silicone oils other than component (B) is preferably 15.0% by mass or more and 70.0% by mass or less.

[0017] The water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention preferably contains the following component (G), and the content of the component (B) and an oily component other than component (B) that is liquid at 25°C and is selected from the group consisting of ester oils, hydrocarbon oils, and silicone oils is 5.0 mass% or more and 25.0 mass% or less.

[0018] Ingredient (G): Powder

[0019] The water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention is preferably a hair cosmetic composition. [Effects of the Invention]

[0020] The water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention contains specific component (A), specific component (B), specific component (C), and specific component (D), and the content of component (D) is 15.0 mass% or more and 50.0 mass% or less. Because the water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention has the above-mentioned configuration, it can spread more easily than oil-based cosmetic compositions having the same properties.

[0021] When the water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention is a hair cosmetic composition, component (B) can provide good hair management, and when the water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention is a skin cosmetic composition, component (B) can provide a good moisturizing feel to the skin. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0022] The present invention will be described in detail below.

[0023] The water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention comprises an oily component that is solid at 25°C and has a melting point of 65°C or higher and 100°C or lower, and is selected from the group consisting of animal and vegetable oils and hydrocarbon oils; an oily component that is liquid at 25°C and is selected from the group consisting of vegetable oils and fatty acid triglycerides; a nonionic surfactant that has a linear saturated alkyl chain with 13 or more carbon atoms and an HLB value of 2.8 or higher and 8.0 or lower; and water.

[0024] In this specification, the above-mentioned "oil-based component that is solid at 25°C and has a melting point of 65°C or higher and 100°C or lower, selected from the group consisting of animal and vegetable oils and hydrocarbon oils" may be referred to as "component (A)."

[0025] In this specification, the above-mentioned "oil component that is liquid at 25°C and is selected from the group consisting of vegetable oils and fatty acid triglycerides" may be referred to as "component (B)".

[0026] In this specification, the above-mentioned "nonionic surfactant having a linear saturated alkyl chain with 13 or more carbon atoms and an HLB value of 2.8 or more and 8.0 or less" may be referred to as "component (C)".

[0027] In this specification, the above-mentioned "water" may be referred to as "component (D)."

[0028] Therefore, the water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention comprises component (A), component (B), component (C), and component (D).

[0029] In the water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention, the content of component (D) is 15.0 mass % or more and 50.0 mass % or less.

[0030] The water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention has the above-mentioned configuration, and therefore can spread more easily than oil-based cosmetic compositions having the same properties. For example, when the water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention is a hair balm, it can spread more easily than conventional hair balms (oil-based cosmetic compositions). Furthermore, when the water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention is a hair clay, it can spread more easily than conventional hair clays (oil-based cosmetic compositions).

[0031] The reason why the water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention can spread better than an oil-based cosmetic composition having the same properties is presumed to be as follows.

[0032] In typical oil-based cosmetic compositions, hardness is imparted by the formation of a specific structure in an oil component that is liquid at 25°C, such as an oil component that is solid at 25°C. However, in oil-based cosmetic compositions, the size of these structures is relatively large, and it is thought that this does not allow for sufficient improvement in spreadability. In contrast, in the water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention, hardness is imparted by the structure formed by the oil component that is solid at 25°C (component (A)), but the presence of the dispersed aqueous phase inhibits the formation of these structures to some extent, and the size of the structures formed is relatively small. For this reason, the water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention can spread better than oil-based cosmetic compositions with the same properties.

[0033] It should be noted that the above mechanism is merely a hypothesis, and the reason why the water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention can spread better than an oil-based cosmetic composition having the same properties is not limited to this.

[0034] Furthermore, the water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention can effectively reduce stickiness.

[0035] When the water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention is a hair cosmetic composition, it can keep hair in place well.

[0036] When the water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention is a skin cosmetic composition, it can impart a good moisturizing feeling to the skin.

[0037] The water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention also has improved applicability, allowing the water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition taken up with the fingers to be easily spread on the palm, and also allowing the water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition to be easily and uniformly transferred to the hair or skin when applied to the hair or skin.

[0038] Furthermore, the water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention can have good wash-off properties.

[0039] The water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention may contain polyglyceryl polyricinoleate.

[0040] In this specification, the above-mentioned "polyglyceryl polyricinoleate" may be referred to as "component (E)."

[0041] The water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention may contain a phosphate surfactant having an HLB value of more than 8.0 and not more than 12.0.

[0042] In this specification, the above-mentioned "phosphate surfactant having an HLB value of more than 8.0 and not more than 12.0" may be referred to as "component (F)".

[0043] The water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention may contain powder.

[0044] In this specification, the above-mentioned "powder" may be referred to as "component (G)".

[0045] The water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition of the present invention may contain components other than components (A) to (G).

[0046] The above components, for example, component (A), component (B), component (C), component (E), component (F), component (G), and other components, may each be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0047] In this specification, "solid at 25°C" means a state that is not fluid at 25°C, and includes a state that is semi-solid (paste-like, etc.) at 25°C. On the other hand, "liquid at 25°C" means a state that is fluid at 25°C.

That is, the water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic compositions (hair balms) prepared in Examples 1 to 10 were compared with the oil-based cosmetic composition (hair balm) prepared in Comparative Example 1. Furthermore, the water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic compositions (hair clays) prepared in Examples 11 to 17 were compared with the oil-based cosmetic composition (hair clay) prepared in Comparative Example 2. The water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition prepared in Comparative Example 1 was compared with the oil-based cosmetic composition (hair balm) prepared in Comparative Example 1.

[0170] Approximately 1 g of the obtained cosmetic composition was placed in the palm of the hand, and the palms of both hands were rubbed together to spread it on the palms. The ease of spreading was evaluated according to the following criteria.

[0171] <Evaluation criteria for stretch> ○ (Good): Spread is clearly better than the comparative example × (Poor): Spreadability is slightly better than that of the comparative example or is equal to or less than that of the comparative example.

[0172] (Test Example 2: Hair manageability) Approximately 1 g of the obtained water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition was placed in the palm of the hand, spread over the palm, and then applied to a loosely wavy medium-length hair wig (manufactured by Eucalyptus Japan Co., Ltd.) by gripping the hair, followed by styling (wavy hairstyle). Three hours after styling, the wig hair was visually observed, and the manageability of the hair was evaluated according to the following criteria.

[0173] <Evaluation criteria for hair manageability> ○ (Good): Wavy hairstyle is maintained × (Poor): Hair is loose and loses its wave, making it difficult to maintain hairstyle.

[0174] (Test example 3: Stickiness) The wigs were touched with their hands immediately after styling in Test Example 2. As a result, the wigs that had been styled using the water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic compositions obtained in the Examples did not feel sticky. On the other hand, when the wigs that had been styled in the same manner as Test Example 2 using the oil-in-water emulsion cosmetic compositions obtained in Comparative Examples 4 and 5 were touched with their hands, they felt sticky.

[0175] (Test Example 4: Moisturizing Feeling) After styling the hair in Test Example 2, the water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition remaining on the palm was spread over the back of the hand. The water-in-oil emulsion cosmetic composition obtained in the example provided a moist and pleasant feeling of moisturization.
