Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a cosmetic comprising polyglyceryl laurate.

Background Art

[0002] Polyglyceryl laurate is a nonionic surfactant and is known to function as a detergent component or a component for solubilizing poorly soluble components such as fragrances. For example, in a cleansing agent that emulsifies and removes makeup agents, increasing the blending amount of polyglyceryl laurate to improve detergency may deteriorate the usability such as stickiness. In contrast, it has been proposed to combine a component (PPG-14 diglyceryl) for improving detergency (for example, Patent Document 1).

[0003] Polyethylene glycol derivatives may be blended in cosmetics for the purpose of improving usability, detergency, solubility of oily components, etc. On the other hand, it is preferable for users to provide cosmetics with a small amount or no polyethylene glycol derivative blended, as it increases the options.

The viscosity of all obtained cosmetic formulations was 10 mPa·s or less. Viscosity was measured using a B-type viscometer (30°C). The L-values ​​of all obtained cosmetic products were 99 or higher. The L-values ​​were measured using a colorimeter ("Spectrophotometer SE7700", Nippon Denshoku Industries Co., Ltd.) at 30°C, with purified water as the reference. [Table 1-1] [Table 1-2]

[0056] [Makeup removal evaluation] A fixed amount of liquid foundation was applied to artificial leather and allowed to dry completely. A fixed amount of the cosmetic from either the example or comparative example was placed on a cotton ball, and under constant pressure, the cotton ball was moved back and forth a fixed number of times over the artificial leather with the foundation applied to it to wipe off the foundation. The L value of the artificial leather before and after wiping was measured using a colorimeter ("Spectrophotometer CM-5", Konica Minolta, Inc.), and ΔL was calculated from the measured color values. The evaluation results are shown in Tables 1-1 and 1-2. A: ΔL is 7 or greater. B: ΔL is 5 or greater and less than 7. C:ΔL is 3 or greater and less than 5. D:ΔL is less than 3

[0057] [Evaluation of usability (lack of creaking)] A fixed amount of the cosmetic products from the examples and comparative examples was applied to the forearm, and the absence of a squeaky feeling upon drying was evaluated by two expert panelists based on the following criteria. The evaluation results are shown in Tables 1-1 and 1-2. A: It doesn't creak at all. B: Slightly creaky C: Slightly creaky D: creak

[0058] [Evaluation of usability (moisture)] Two expert panelists evaluated the skin moisture level after applying a fixed amount of the cosmetic products from the examples and comparative examples to the forearm, based on the following criteria. The evaluation results are shown in Tables 1-1 and 1-2. A: I feel moisturized. B: I feel a little moisturized. C: Slightly moisturizing
