Description

  The present invention relates to an oil-in-water emulsified cosmetic, and specifically relates to an oil-in-water emulsified cosmetic that contains a phospholipid having a predetermined composition and can also be prepared as a translucent cosmetic.

  Conventionally, oil-in-water emulsified cosmetics are widely used in basic cosmetics, hair cosmetics, makeup cosmetics, and the like because of their low elongation at the time of application and good compatibility with the skin. Among oil-in-water emulsified cosmetics, those having a translucent appearance have a beautiful appearance and a high-class feeling, and are in high demand in the market.

  Oil-in-water emulsified cosmetics are generally prepared by dispersing oil droplets stably in water by blending an emulsifier. Conventionally, it has been proposed to use a phospholipid as an emulsifier. Phospholipids widely used as an emulsifier in cosmetics contain a large amount of phosphatidylcholine (PC). PC is excellent in emulsifying action, but on the other hand, in order to give high moisture retention to the oil-in-water emulsified cosmetic to be prepared, it is necessary to add a water-soluble humectant such as glycerin or amino acid. Since the blending of these water-soluble humectants causes stickiness, the smaller the blending amount, the better.

  On the other hand, cosmetics in which phospholipids other than PC are blended together with PC or independently have been proposed (for example, Patent Documents 1 to 8). Among phospholipids, phosphatidylinositol (PI) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) have an advantage of excellent moisturizing properties, although they are inferior in emulsifying power as compared with PC. If oil-in-water emulsified cosmetics can be prepared using phospholipids containing a high proportion of PI and PE, the amount of water-soluble humectant that causes stickiness can be reduced or not added at all. Thus, an oil-in-water emulsified cosmetic with high moisture retention can be provided, which is advantageous.

JP 60-246305 A JP-A-3-58919 JP 2001-113157 A Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2004-248643 JP 2006-28026 A JP 2008-291014 A JP 2008-74780 A JP 2010-90040 A

However, the emulsifying power of PI and PE is lower than that of PC, and oil-in-water emulsified cosmetics composed of fine emulsified droplets that can be translucent cosmetics with phospholipids containing a high proportion of PI and PE. Is difficult to get. Although it is possible to reduce the average particle size of the emulsified droplets by applying a strong shearing force using a high-pressure emulsifier, etc., this method is not suitable for mass production and does not give a strong shearing force by a machine. However, if an oil-in-water emulsified cosmetic composed of fine emulsified droplets can be prepared using a phospholipid containing PI and PE in a high ratio, only the viewpoint of usability and moisturizing properties can be prepared. It is also advantageous from the viewpoint of productivity.
An object of the present invention is to improve the emulsion stability of an oil-in-water emulsified cosmetic containing a phospholipid containing PI and PE at a high ratio.

As a result of various studies by the present inventor in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a combination of a predetermined surfactant and a predetermined surfactant aid is used, and a phospholipid containing PI and PE in a high ratio is used, thereby being translucent. The knowledge that an oil-in-water emulsified cosmetic that can be prepared as a cosmetic can be provided has been further studied based on this knowledge, and the present invention has been completed. That is, the means for solving the above problems are as follows:

Method for producing oil-in-water emulsified cosmetic of the present invention:
Although the manufacturing method of the oil-in-water type emulsion cosmetics of this invention is not specifically limited, An example is as follows.
Ingredients (A) to (D) and an oily component added as required are mixed uniformly. If desired, it may be heated. The heating is preferably about 65 to 75 ° C.
Next, a part of the component (E) is added to the mixture and emulsified. In this case, heating may be performed as desired. The heating is preferably about 65 to 75 ° C. The amount of component (E) used for emulsification in this step is preferably about 5 to 60 times the mass of the total mass of components (A) to (D).

  Usually, amphiphiles such as higher alcohols and surfactants form a state called α-gel in the aqueous phase, which is used to increase the interfacial area by finely emulsifying droplets using a high-pressure shear emulsifier, etc. Conventionally, stabilization of a fine emulsion has been achieved by orienting an amphiphile and a surfactant at the oil-water interface. However, the combination of the components (A) and (B) that are surfactants and the component (C) higher alcohol that is a surfactant aid, which is utilized in the present invention, is more efficiently oriented to the interface. Even if the interface area of the emulsified droplets is not strictly controlled, it is considered that a liquid and stable fine emulsion is formed.

Moreover, as described above, in the present invention, an oil-in-water emulsified cosmetic composed of the fine emulsified droplets can be prepared without using a machine having a strong shearing force such as a high-pressure shear emulsifier.
The average particle diameter of the emulsified droplets can be measured using a particle size distribution measuring apparatus (for example, manufactured by Submicron Particle Analyzer N5 BECKMAN COULTER) using a laser diffraction / scattering method.

d. Emulsification stability Regarding the stability over time of d, the oil-in-water emulsified cosmetics of the above-mentioned examples and comparative examples are placed in a thermostatic bath at 40 ° C., and the appearance after one month is observed with the naked eye, and the following criteria are determined: Judged by.
(Time stability criteria)
Judgment: Evaluation ◎: Not creamed at all ○: Very slightly creamed △: Very creamed ×: Extremely creamed

  Moreover, about the oil-in-water type emulsified cosmetics of Examples 1-10, when the transmittance | permeability of wavelength 700nm was measured using "UV-2500PC UV-VIS REDCORDING SPECTROPHOMETER" by SHIMADZU company, all the transmittance | permeability is 30- 80%, ie prepared as a translucent cosmetic.

From the results shown in the above table, it can be understood that any of the oil-in-water emulsified cosmetics of Examples 1 to 10 of the present invention had good evaluation results for moisture retention, feeling of use, and emulsion stability. Moreover, Examples 1-10 are translucent cosmetics, have high aesthetics, and can be provided as high-grade cosmetics.
On the other hand, since Comparative Examples 1 to 11 do not contain at least one of components (A) to (D), one or more evaluation items were significantly inferior compared to Examples. Understandable. Specifically, both or at least one of the components (A) and (B) is not blended, or instead of the components (A) and (B), a polyoxyethylene sorbite fatty acid ester having an HLB of less than 10 and an HLB In Comparative Examples 1 to 9, in which polyoxyethylene hydrogenated castor oil having a viscosity of less than 10 was respectively blended, the average particle diameter of the emulsified droplets was not in the desired range, and it could not be prepared as a translucent cosmetic, and further emulsified It can be understood that the stability was also significantly inferior.
It can be understood that Comparative Example 10 in which the component (C) is not blended is sticky, inferior in feeling of use, and has low emulsion stability.
It can be understood that Comparative Example 11 in which component (D) is not blended is inferior in sustainability of the moisturizing feeling.
