Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to cleansing cosmetics.
Background Art
[0002] Cleansing cosmetics are cosmetics used to remove oil stains caused by sebum, makeup cosmetics, etc. There are two types: oil-based cleansing cosmetics containing a high concentration of oil components that focus on removing normal oil-soluble components, and water-based cleansing cosmetics that aim to remove water-based stains and oil-based stains by washing with water. Although oil-based cleansing cosmetics have the advantage of excellent detergency against oil stains, they have the disadvantages of an oily feel and difficulty in removing water-based stains. Water-based cleansing cosmetics have the advantages of an excellent and refreshing feel and ease of removing water-based stains, but they have the disadvantage of limited detergency against oil stains.
[0003] In contrast, Patent Document 1 describes a cleansing cosmetic using liquid crystal, which is excellent in makeup removal and has a good feel after washing with water. However, since liquid crystal has a hard structure, there is a problem that the structure is difficult to collapse when washed away and it is difficult to phase-transition to an O / W emulsion that is easy to wash away with water.

[Effects of the Invention]
[0007] The cleansing cosmetic of the present invention forms a D phase by combining glycerin with polyhydric alcohols of tetravalent or higher, resulting in excellent compatibility with makeup residue, easy phase conversion to an O / W emulsion during rinsing with water, and excellent moisturizing properties after washing. [Modes for carrying out the invention]
[0008] The embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described in more detail below, but the scope of the present invention is not limited to these embodiments, and embodiments that have been modified or otherwise altered without impairing the spirit of the present invention also belong to the present invention. The notation "~" indicating the range includes both an upper and lower limit.
[0009] The (poly)glycerol fatty acid ester, which is component (A) used in the present invention, is obtained by an esterification reaction between (poly)glycerol and a fatty acid.
[0010] The (poly)glycerin constituting the (poly)glycerin fatty acid ester represents glycerin or polyglycerin, and polyglycerin is obtained by dehydrating and condensing glycerin. The (poly)glycerin used in the present invention is preferably (poly)glycerin with an average degree of polymerization of 1 to 10, such as glycerin, diglycerin, triglycerin, tetraglycerin, pentaglycerin, hexaglycerin, heptaglycerin, octaglycerin, nonaglycerin, and decaglycerin. Here, the average degree of polymerization is the average degree of polymerization (n) of polyglycerin calculated from the hydroxyl value by end-group analysis. Specifically, it is calculated from the following formulas (1) and (2). Molecular weight=74n+18...(1) Hydroxyl value = 56110(n+2) / Molecular weight ... (2)
[0011] The fatty acids constituting the (poly)glycerol fatty acid ester are preferably those with 8 to 22 carbon atoms, and more preferably those with 12 to 18 carbon atoms.

[0012] In the present invention, the (poly)glycerin fatty acid ester can exhibit an excellent makeup removal effect by using a combination of two or more polyglycerin fatty acid esters selected from various esters obtained from the above-mentioned combination of (poly)glycerin and fatty acids. In particular, it is preferable to combine (a1) a (poly)glycerin fatty acid ester whose constituent fatty acids consist of one or more selected from the group consisting of unsaturated fatty acids and branched fatty acids, and (a2) one or more (poly)glycerin fatty acid esters selected from the group consisting of straight-chain fatty acids.

When two or more types of component (A) are used, the mixed HLB is preferably 8 to 15, more preferably 9 to 14, and most preferably 11 to 14. A better makeup removal effect is achieved when the HLB of component (A) or the mixed HLB is within the range of 8 to 15. Here, HLB refers to the value calculated from the Atlas method, and more specifically, it is calculated from formula (3) below. Mixed HLB refers to the sum of the results obtained by multiplying the HLB of each (poly)glycerin fatty acid ester by their respective weight ratios. HLB = 20 × (1 - S / A) ... (3) S: Saponification value of polyglycerol fatty acid esters A: Neutralization value of raw fatty acids
[0015] The content of component (A) in the cleansing cosmetic of the present invention is not particularly limited as long as the desired effect is imparted, but is preferably 1 to 20% by weight, and more preferably 3 to 20% by weight, based on the total amount of the cleansing cosmetic. A better makeup removal effect is exhibited when the content of component (A) is within the range of 1 to 20% by weight. Furthermore, the mass ratio ((a1):(a2)) of (a1):(a2) in component (A) is preferably 95:5 to 20:80, more preferably 95:5 to 30:70, and even more preferably 90:10 to 40:60.

LC: liquid crystal phase In optically anisotropic solutions, birefringence can be observed using a polarizing plate.
[0027] [Evaluation method: Evaluation of user experience] An appropriate amount of lipstick (product name: Lipstick (Refill) 550, manufactured by Chifure Cosmetics Co., Ltd.) was applied to the inner side of the forearm. 0.2g of each cleansing cosmetic from the example and comparative examples was then applied, and the cleansing motion was performed 15 times with the fingers, evaluating the degree of blending with makeup. Afterwards, the product was rinsed with running water, and the ease of washing away makeup (cleansing effect) and the moisturizing effect after use were evaluated. The evaluation was conducted on 20 subjects, and the results were judged according to the evaluation criteria below. The results are shown in Table 1. <Evaluation criteria for how well it blends with dirt> ◎: 18-20 people responded that it blends well with makeup stains. ○: 14-17 people responded that it blends well with makeup stains. △: 10-13 people responded that it blends well with makeup stains. ×: 0-9 people responded that it blends well with makeup stains. <Criteria for evaluating cleansing effectiveness> ◎: 18-20 people responded that it rinsed off thoroughly. ○: 14-17 people responded that it was sufficient to rinse thoroughly. △: 10-13 people responded that it rinsed off thoroughly. ×: 0-9 people answered that it rinsed off sufficiently. <Evaluation criteria for moisturizing effect after cleansing> ◎: 18-20 people responded that it had a moisturizing feel. ○: 14-17 people responded that it had a moisturizing feel. △: 10-13 people responded that it had a moisturizing feel. ×: 0-9 people responded that it had a moisturizing feel.
