Description

The present invention relates to an oil-in-water emulsified composition suitable for cleansing cosmetics or massage cosmetics.

In the oil-in-water emulsified composition, an oil-soluble component and a water-soluble component can be applied at the same time, and since the outer phase is an aqueous phase, a composition having a light usability and an excellent feel can be obtained. Among these oil-in-water emulsified compositions, the high internal phase oil-in-water emulsified composition has a higher content of the oil phase, which is the internal phase, than the normal oil-in-water emulsified composition. It is a dosage form used in oils, skin care or hair care cosmetics, cleansing cosmetics, etc. Further, in such a cosmetic, in particular, when it is desired to produce the thickness of the oil, a semi-solid fat or a solid fat is blended. However, there is a problem that the back skin becomes sticky by blending semi-solid fat or solid fat.

On the other hand, it is known that (polyethylene glycol-240 / decyltetradeceth-20 / hexamethylene diisocyanate) copolymer, hyaluronate and the like are used as thickeners in oil-in-water emulsified compositions (Patent Document 1). ). However, it is not known to be used in high internal phase oil emulsified compositions in water.
