Abstract: Proposed is a powder of silica-cerium oxide composite particles useful as an ultraviolet shielding agent in a resin composition or as a sunscreening agent in a cosmetic composition. The cerium oxide-based composite particles consist of cerium oxide and 5 to 60% by weight of amorphous silica calculated as SiO.sub.2. The composite particles are prepared by the addition of sodium silicate and an inorganic acid to an aqueous slurry containing precipitates of cerium hydroxide so as to precipitate amorphous silica on the particles of cerium hydroxide followed by drying and calcination of the particles separated from the reaction mixture. Various formulations of cosmetic compositions compounded with the silica-cerium oxide composite particles are disclosed.

Abstract: A solid o/w-type cosmetic composition, a process for molding it, and a container used for aqueous-type solid cosmetics. The cosmetic composition comprises (a) a water-soluble solidifying agent selected from agar and gelatin, (b) an oil component and (c) water, and optionally, (d) a powder or (e) a water-soluble adhesive. The composition has superior characteristics inherent in an o/w-type cosmetic, while providing excellent usability and portability. The molding process comprises applying a water-carrying sheet material to the surface of the composition before solidification and releasing it after solidification. The container for an aqueous-type solid cosmetic composition is characterized by having a water-absorbing material secured to a receptacle of the container.

Abstract: A silicone polymer, a paste-like silicone composition prepared by kneading the silicone polymer and a silicone oil under a shearing force, and a water-in-oil type cosmetic composition comprising the paste-like silicone composition as an oil phase component are disclosed. The silicone polymer is prepared by the addition polymerization of components comprising an organohydrogenpolysiloxane R.sup.1.sub.a R.sup.2.sub.b H.sub.c SiO.sub.(4-a-b-c)/2 (1) or R.sup.1.sub.f H.sub.g SiO.sub.(4-f-g)/2 (2) and a polyoxyalkylene C.sub.m H.sub.2m-1 O(C.sub.2 H.sub.4 O).sub.h (C.sub.3 H.sub.6 O).sub.i C.sub.m H.sub.2m-l (A) or an organopolysiloxane R.sup.1.sub.j R.sup.4.sub.k SiO.sub.(4-j-k)/2 (B) the components, including (1) or (A) as an essential component. The silicone polymer can swell in silicone oils and function as a viscosity increasing agent for silicone oils.

Abstract: A cover is pivotably attached to a case body. Male thread portions of a multiple thread and unthreaded portions are alternately formed on a peripheral wall of a cosmetic container section of the case body. A ring is rotatably attached to the cover and externally fitted to the peripheral wall. The ring has female thread portions of a multiple thread intermittently formed. The female and male thread portions are engageable and disengageable. An inner cover made of an elastic material is attached to the lower portion of the cover so that the inner cover is brought into press contact with an open edge of the peripheral wall. A space is formed between the cover and the inner cover so that the inner cover is elastically deformed and expanded. When the female and the male thread portions are engaged with each other and the ring is rotated to a closed position, the cover approaches the case body so that the inner cover is brought into press contact with the open edge of the peripheral wall.
