#OIL IN WATER EMULSION EXAMPLES SKIN CARE SKIN#
The present invention has been made in consideration of the above-mentioned situation, and its object is to provide an oil-in-water emulsion skin care cosmetic composition which, without the need for adding a pharmaceutical agent and a film-forming agent or the like thereto, effects an excellent elastic or resilient feeling to skin and is excellent in non-stickiness and stability. SUMMARY OF INVENTION Problems that Invention is to Solve On the other hand, the method of using a film-forming agent or the like has some problems in that, when the agent is added in an amount enough to satisfy the feeling of skin resilience or elasticity, then it may occur the scum or settling come from the applied cosmetic composition and the stickiness in its application onto the skin, that the stability of the agent is poor in long-term storage thereof, and that the agent adversely affects the stability of the other additive ingredients, etc. However, the method of using a pharmaceutical agent requires long-term continuous use of the agent, and according to the method, it is difficult to stably keep the pharmaceutical agent in the base without lowering the efficacy of the pharmaceutical agent. As an ingredient capable of effecting an elastic or resilient feeling to skin within a short period of time, there has been known a film-forming agent such as polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, acrylic resin or the like, or a silicone elastomer or the like (e.g., see Patent References 3 to 5). Heretofore, for delaying or preventing the reduction of skin elasticity or resilience and the appearance of wrinkles due to ageing, etc., and for concealing wrinkles by using a skin care cosmetic composition, there has been known a method of using a pharmaceutical agent of vitamin A or its derivatives or the like (e.g., see Patent References 1 and 2). More precisely, the invention relates to an oil-in-water emulsion skin care cosmetic composition which, without the need for adding a pharmaceutical agent and a film-forming agent or the like thereto, effects an excellent elastic or resilient feeling to skin and is excellent in non-stickiness and stability.
The present invention relates to an oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion skin care cosmetic composition.
