  • Publication number: 20190299032
    Abstract: An oil-in water emulsion cosmetic composition has a good feeling in use and excellent dispersion stability, and does not cause patchiness upon drying. A hydrophobized powder is dispersed in an oil phase and processed with a wet type disperser to obtain a dispersed solution. A water phase is added thereto and processed with a homomixer, to obtain an oil-in water emulsion composition having excellent usability. The powder is easily dispersed upon application to skin. The dispersion stability of the powder is further improved, and the precipitation and creaming of the emulsion particle can be eliminated by blending a thickener having salt tolerance. A sticky feeling is eliminated by using succinoglycan as a thickener, and patchiness is eliminated by plasticizing said succinoglycan.
