(EN) The present invention is a cosmetic characterized by containing at least one cyclic silicone which is represented by general formula (1) and has a boiling point of 205 to 255 DEG C and a viscosity ofless than 5 mm<2>/s (25 DEG C). Thus, a cosmetic is provided, which has a light feel upon application, good spreadability and excellent water repellency, can be formed into a uniform cosmetic film, can exhibit desired volatility and a desired feel during use, and can exhibit excellent long-term stability and excellent make-up sustainability even when an oily agent such as a silicone, a hydrocarbonoil and an ester, an organic ultraviolet ray absorber or an oily component that is solid at 25 DEG C, which has been used in cosmetics, is added to the cosmetic. (In the formula, R1 represents a monovalent hydrocarbon group having 2 or 3 carbon atoms; R2, R3, R4, R5 and R6 independently represent a monovalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms; and a represents a positive integer satisfying the following formula 0
(ZH) 本发明为一种化妆品,其特征在于,其含有一种或两种以上下述通式(1)表示的、沸点在205~255℃的范围内且粘度小于5mm2/s(25℃)的环状硅酮。由此,能够提供一种触感轻盈、延展良好、防水性优异、化妆膜均匀,能够实现所需的挥发性及使用感,即使在掺合有用于化妆品的硅酮、烃油及酯等各种油剂、有机紫外线吸收剂或25℃下为固体状的油性成分的情况下,也具有优异的经时稳定性、持妆性的化妆品。[化学式1]式中,R1为碳原子数为2或3的一价烃基,R2、R3、R4、R5及R6分别独立地为碳原子数为1~3的一价烃基。a为0<a<4的正数,b及c分别独立地为0~3的数,且(a+b+c)≤4。
