Abstract: To provide an acrylic silicone graft copolymer capable of effectively exerting a function in a composition for external application containing various oily components such as a natural oil, a hydrocarbon oil, ester oil and a silicone oil, and a composition for external application containing the acrylic silicone graft copolymer. A composition for external application including an acrylic silicone graft copolymer, which contains 2 to 25 mass % of a constitutional unit represented by formula (I), 55 to 85 mass % of a constitutional unit represented by formula (II) and 2 to 20 mass % of a constitutional unit represented by formula (III). wherein R1 is an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms; R2 is an alkylene group having 2 to 10 carbon atoms; and n is an integer of 1 to 100.

Abstract: A lip cosmetic that preferably has smooth feeling of use, gives shine, has no limitation of the container that can be used, and that further allows even coloring with little color transfer. A lip cosmetic composition having an inner phase and an outer phase, wherein the inner phase includes: A) a low-viscosity oil agent that does not dissolve a solidifier, and the outer phase includes: B) the solidifier; C) a high-viscosity oil agent that dissolves the solidifier; D) a binder oil that dissolves the low-viscosity oil agent as component A at 90° C. but not at 25° C.; and E) a coloring material, and the total amount of components A, B, C, D and E contained in the lip cosmetic composition is 80 mass % or more.

Abstract: A composition for external use containing a tranexamate as an active ingredient with suppressed sticky or oily feeling but having a fresh feel of use, and a method for producing the same. A tranexamate salt can be dispersed stably in an aqueous medium by (a) dissolving the tranexamate salt and an amphiphilic polymer in water, a water-soluble organic solvent or a mixture thereof; and (b) adding a mixed solution obtained in the step (a) to an aqueous medium, and thus keeping the tranexamate salt in molecular assembly particles formed of the amphiphilic polymer.

Abstract: Disclosed is an oil-in-water type emulsion composition containing a physiologically acceptable salt of a tranexamate ester and a method for producing the same. An oil-in-water type emulsion composition containing a physiologically acceptable salt of a tranexamate ester can be obtained by preparing an oil phase including: A) a physiologically acceptable salt of a tranexamate ester; B) an amphiphilic substance; C) an oily substance; and D) water, a water-soluble organic solvent or a mixture thereof wherein the weight ratio of the ingredients A:B is in the range of 1:0.5 to 1:2.5, the weight ratio of the ingredients A:C is in the range of 1:1 to 1:5.0, and the weight ratio of the ingredients A:D is 1:0.2 to 1:5.0, and adding the oil phase to a water phase including E) water, a water-soluble organic solvent or a mixture thereof.

Abstract: The present application provides a composite particle having a good feeling upon application and capable of effectively preventing make-up smudges by selectively adsorbing sebum, particularly, free fatty acid, and moreover, having a toning effect on the skin texture, and a cosmetic composition containing the composite particle. The composite particle of the present invention comprises a resin particle coated on its surface with amorphous calcium phosphate and calcium carbonate, which resin particle contains a polymer of a vinyl monomer and any one of a phosphorous acid diester component having a certain configuration and a partially esterified phosphoric acid component having a certain configuration.

Abstract: A composition for external use containing a physiologically acceptable salt of a tranexamate as an active ingredient, which is dispersed in the composition in the state of fine particles, is provided. Thereby, a physiologically acceptable salt of the tranexamate is dissolved in a solvent to prepare a solution, to which a salting-out agent is added to precipitate the salt. Such salt is so dispersed in a composition for external use in the state of fine particles that the tranexamate salt can be mixed without using a large amount of an oil component to obtain a composition for external use affording excellent feel of use and stability.
