Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition, comprising (a) at least one modified starch; (b) at least one C13-C15 acid; (c) at least one clay; and (d) at least one amphoteric surfactant, wherein the weight ratio of the amount of the (d) amphoteric surfactant/the amount of the (b) C13-C15 fatty acid is 0.5 or more, preferably 0.6 or more, and more preferably 0.7 or more. The composition according to the present invention can be rinsed off from a keratin substance such as skin and can leave an enhanced deposition of clay on the keratin substance after rinsing off the composition from the skin.

Abstract: A vibration sensing element includes a hermetically sealed case, a fixed electrode member made of a nonmagnetic electrically conductive material and fixed to the case with its tip portion projecting into the case, a movable electrode member made of an electrically conductive magnetic metal material exhibiting elasticity and fixed to the case with its tip portion projecting into the case and making pressure contact with the fixed electrode member, and a magnetic member disposed to face the movable electrode member. A glass breakage sensor includes a casing for attachment to the glass, the vibration sensing element, and a resin molding encasing the vibration sensing element. The contact pressure between the fixed and movable electrode members can be noninvasively checked by applying a magnetic field thereto.
