OLEUM FOR COSMETIC AND COSMETIC COMPOUNDED WITH THE SAME

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an oleum for cosmetics, melting near the body temperature at once to easily form a protective coat on the surface of the skin, reducing moisture loss from the skin surface (reduction of keratin moisture) and suppressing oily feeling, and to provide cosmetics compounded with the oleum. SOLUTION: The oleum for cosmetics comprises esterification products obtained by esterification reaction of polyglycerol having 2-15 average polymerization degree n calculated from hydroxyl value, a 6-24C fatty acid, and a vegetable oil and fat or glycerol, wherein the content of fatty acids liquid at room temperature in the fatty acids is ≤3 mol per 1.0 mol fatty acid solid at room temperature and the fatty acids are ≥(n+2)×0.60 mol per 1.0 mol of the polyglycerol and glycerol, and the cosmetics are compounded with the oleum.
