In particular, by incorporating titanium oxide (b) having an average particle size of 0.1 μm or less, alteration such as discoloration, odor change and separation due to light and heat can be prevented. Furthermore, by adding hydrophobized silica and / or lauroyl lysine (c) in addition to the titanium oxide (b), the uniformity of the titanium oxide particles can be improved, and the feeling and feeling of use can be maintained. be able to. And as a component which obtains the form as a stick-like emulsified composition, by using the above-mentioned (d) to (g), it is possible to maintain excellent properties in moldability, feeling of use and stability. is there.

Component (a) in the present invention is ascorbic acid glucoside. The ascorbic acid glucoside is a known compound and can be obtained, for example, by the method described in JP-A-3-139288 or JP-A-3-135992.

As the ascorbic acid glucoside used in the present invention, L-ascorbic acid-2-glucoside can be suitably used. The blending amount is preferably 0.01 to 7.0% by mass, more preferably 0.1 to 5.0% by mass based on the total amount of the stick-like emulsion composition. If the blending amount is less than 0.01% by mass, the whitening effect may not be obtained. If the blending amount exceeds 7.0% by mass, the sticky feeling may become prominent, a good feeling of use may not be obtained, and there is a risk of deterioration such as discoloration, odor change and separation.

In the present invention, the component (b) is titanium oxide having an average particle size of 0.1 μm or less. The titanium oxide is not particularly limited as long as it has an average particle size of 0.1 μm or less, and may be prepared by using any of the baking method and the wet method. Moreover, the shape is not particularly limited. In addition, the said average particle diameter is an average particle diameter measured by the laser diffraction scattering method.

When the average particle diameter exceeds 0.1 μm, there is a problem that the feeling of use is deteriorated because the degree of coloring at the time of application is too strong and a squeaky feeling tends to occur. Although the minimum of the said average particle diameter is not specifically limited, It is preferable that it is 0.01 micrometer.

The titanium oxide is preferably silica-coated titanium oxide. Coating the surface with silica is preferable because the reactivity (photocatalytic activity and ion elution) of titanium oxide can be suppressed. The coating amount of silica is particularly preferably such that the composition ratio of titanium oxide and silica is in the range of mass ratio 95: 5 to 60:40. Further, the surface may be hydrophobized with silicone oil or the like.

Examples of commercially available products include TTO series (manufactured by Ishihara Sangyo Co., Ltd.), MT series (manufactured by Teika Co., Ltd.), Maxlite TS series (manufactured by Showa Denko KK), and Pulsol TX (manufactured by DSM Nutrition Co., Ltd.).

The amount of the titanium oxide is preferably 0.1 to 7.0% by mass, and more preferably 0.5 to 5.0% by mass based on the total amount of the stick-like emulsion composition. If it is less than 0.1% by mass, it may be difficult to suppress alterations such as discoloration, odor change, and separation caused by heat and light of ascorbic acid glucoside. When it exceeds 7.0% by mass, the feeling of blotting becomes remarkable, and it may be difficult to obtain a good feeling of use.

The hydrophobized silica is not particularly limited, and those widely used as cosmetic raw materials can be used. The silica of the hydrophobized silica is not particularly limited, and may be made of synthetic amorphous silica using any of the dry method and wet method, and may have any shape.

By blending the lauroyl lysine, the uniformity of the particles becomes good, and it becomes easy to obtain a smooth feel and a good feeling of use.

The blending amount of the component (c) is preferably 0.1 to 7.0% by mass and more preferably 0.5 to 5.0% by mass with respect to the total amount of the stick-like emulsion composition. . If the blending amount is less than 0.1% by mass, it may be difficult to obtain particle uniformity, smooth feel and good usability. If the blending amount exceeds 7.0% by mass, the feeling of powderiness becomes prominent and a good usability may not be obtained. In addition, the compounding quantity of a component (c) is taken as the total amount of both when hydrophobized silica and lauroyl lysine are used together.

When the hydrophobized silica and lauroyl lysine are used after being premixed with the titanium oxide in the production of the stick-like emulsion composition of the present invention, the uniformity of the particles becomes good, and the smooth feel and good It is preferable in that a good usability is easily obtained.

The said component (d) is a hydrocarbon wax, and makes polyethylene wax a part or all. That is, it is a hydrocarbon wax in which polyethylene wax is essential and other hydrocarbon waxes may be used in combination. The polyethylene wax is preferably used as a consistency adjusting agent because it is easy to obtain a smooth feel and a good feeling of use. In particular, those having an average molecular weight of 300 to 1000 are preferably used. Further, by using polyethylene wax as an essential component, excellent effects can be obtained with respect to the feeling of use and storage stability.

As the above polyethylene wax, Performalene
PL Polyethylene, Performanceene 400 Polyethylene, Performanceene 655 Polyethylene (New)
Commercially available products such as Phase Technologies (manufactured by Phase Technologies) and Sun Wax 151-P (manufactured by Sanyo Chemical Co., Ltd.) can be suitably used.

Many waxes derived from plants and animals are commercially available as cosmetic raw materials, but many of them contain impurities, which may cause alteration such as discoloration, odor change and separation. Therefore, in the present invention, it is preferable not to use any wax other than the hydrocarbon wax.

The hydrocarbon wax other than the polyethylene wax is not particularly limited as long as it has a hydrocarbon structure, but is selected from the group consisting of synthetic waxes such as paraffin wax, microcrystalline wax, ceresin, ozokerite and Fischer-Tropsch wax. It is preferable that it is at least one kind. Examples of commercially available hydrocarbon waxes include paraffin waxes 155, 150, 140, HNP-9, HNP-10, microcrystalline wax Hi-Mic series, and Fischer-Tropsch wax FT series (manufactured by Nippon Seiwa Co., Ltd.). it can. Further, as the Sasolwax series (manufactured by SASOL), synthetic waxes such as paraffin wax, microcrystalline wax, ceresin, ozokerite and Fischer-Tropsch wax are commercially available.

The compounding quantity of the said component (d) is 5.0-30.0 mass% in a total amount. If the blending amount is less than 5.0% by mass, the moldability of the resulting stick-like emulsion composition is deteriorated. In addition, the stick-like emulsion composition tends to collapse during use. If the blending amount exceeds 30.0% by mass, it is too hard, and it becomes difficult to obtain a smooth feel and good usability.

In the present invention, the component (e) is a nonionic surfactant having an HLB of 7 or less. By using a nonionic surfactant having an HLB of 7 or less, a stable emulsion composition can be obtained. The HLB means an HLB value based on the Griffin method.
