POWDERY COSMETIC

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a powdery cosmetic suppressing agglutination of powder by compression, improving taking out property without clogging even in repeatedly using through meshes and keeping a light use feeling by including colored powder and globular powder. SOLUTION: This powdery cosmetic capable of being filled in a vessel having a shape taking out through meshes is obtained by including (A) 4.5-30 wt.% of colored powder selected from iron oxide and tar-based pigment and (B) 0.1-60 wt.% of globular powder. Preferably, the cosmetic is a foundation. Preferably, an average particle diameter of the component A is 0.005-1 μm. As the component B, globular silica, etc., is exemplified and preferably has an average particle diameter of 2-20 μm. Hydrophobic surfaces of the components A and B can be used and the hydrophobic treatment can be performed by using a hydrophobizing treating agent such as a silicone oil. Further, preferably 1-20 wt.% of an oil component such as liquid paraffin can be mixed in the whole composition of the cosmetic.
