  • FOAMABLE COSMETIC PRODUCT
    Publication number: 20160067155
    Abstract: Provided is a cosmetic product which can generate a carbon dioxide gas to cause foaming by a simple method and having excellent usability. Provided is a cosmetic product comprising a first composition and a second composition different from the first composition as constituent elements of the cosmetic product and which foams by mixing the first composition and the second composition, wherein the first composition is a liquid or creamy composition containing a bicarbonate and/or a carbonate, and the second composition is a liquid or creamy composition containing an ?-hydroxy acid and/or a saturated dibasic acid in which the content of water is 1.0-fold or less in terms of weight ratio with respect to the ?-hydroxy acid and/or the saturated dibasic acid.
