Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an oil-in-water type cosmetic. More specifically, it relates to an oil-in-water type cosmetic containing oily particles of a visible size.

Background Art

[0002] An oil-in-water type emulsified cosmetic in which large oily particles having an average particle diameter of 50 μm to 10 mm are dispersed in an aqueous phase is known. Such a cosmetic containing such large oily particles is not only visually novel and beautiful because of the dispersion of oily particles of a visible size, but also has a fresh and refreshing feeling when applied to the skin, and a moist feeling after some time, providing a hitherto unprecedented feeling of use. Further, if a decomposable oil-soluble component is held in the large oily particles, there is also an effect of suppressing the decomposition of the oil-soluble component. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a capsule-containing cosmetic in which oily particles having an average particle diameter of 100 μm or more and containing an oily component that is solid at normal temperature are dispersed in an aqueous medium.

[0003] On the other hand, cyclic carboxamide derivatives are known to have an anti-wrinkle effect and a pigmentation suppression effect, and it has been proposed to be incorporated into cosmetics and the like (Patent Document 2).
