Abstract: Provided is a wooden sheet having high flexibility (for example, folding resistance) and processability (for example, degree of processing freedom) even if the wooden sheet is considerably thick. Also provided is a method that can be used to produce such a wooden sheet. The wooden sheet is modified with a modifying agent including a combination of an acid or an alkali and a compound having a hydroxyl group.

Abstract: The present invention is to provide a three-dimensional molding composition that is suitable for efficiently producing a three-dimensional molded article excellent in shape accuracy, with a few steps. The three-dimensional molding composition of the present invention includes a fibrous substance as a constituent component, wherein a TI value [viscosity at 6 rpm/viscosity at 60 rpm] at 20° C. is 1.5 or more. It is preferable for the above described fibrous substance to be cellulose, and is particularly preferable to be cellulose of which an average degree of unsubstitution of hydroxyl groups is 2.5 or more. In addition, it is preferable that an average length of the fibrous substance be 1 to 1,000 ?m and that an average aspect ratio thereof be 10 to 10,000.

Abstract: The present invention is to provide oily makeup cosmetics which comprises an oligo ester obtained from (a) an aliphatic acid or a hydroxy aliphatic acid having 8 to 30 carbon atoms (straight or branched, saturated or unsaturated), (b) a straight or branched dibasic acid having 12 to 36 carbon atoms, and (c) glycerol or a glycerol condensate, and a hydrocarbon having a branched structure.

Abstract: Provided are cosmetics characterized by containing an inorganic powder obtained by grinding an inorganic matter, which contains at least two elements selected from among silicon, aluminum, titanium, oxygen, chromium, iron, calcium, magnesium, zirconium and beryllium and has a crystalline structure and a transparency, and having an average primary grain size of from 3 to 20 micrometers. Namely, provided are cosmetics which are excellent in the effects of covering wrinkles and roughness in the skin and making spots and darkness in the skin vague, give a cosmetic coating film having a texture close to the skin in optical deepness, regulate excessive whiteness when photographed and have a favorable touch; and a makeup method using these cosmetics.
