Abstract
Provided is a cosmetic composition with excellent storage stability, feel during use and ultraviolet light blocking effects, in which an inorganic ultraviolet light blocking agent comprising a hydrophobic fine particulate metal oxide, e.g., hydrophobic fine particulate zinc oxide can be uniformly and stably dispersed in an aqueous phase, and in which a reduction in viscosity of a formulation is suppressed even when the structure of the hydrophobic fine particulate metal oxide is dispersed in the aqueous phase. The cosmetic composition comprises (A) a carboxylic acid modified silicone having a specific structure, (B) a water-soluble thickening agent, (C) a basic compound, and (D) a hydrophobic fine particulate metal oxide. The cosmetic composition is useful as a sunscreen cosmetic composition.
