Abstract

The present invention relates to a cosmetic composition comprising: a copolymer having a constituent unit corresponding to (A) a vinyl monomer having a carboxyl group in a structure and a constituent unit corresponding to (B) a vinyl monomer represented by the following formula (1); a cationic surfactant; a higher alcohol; and a silicone oil: CH 2 ═C(R 1 )—CO—X-(Q-O) r —R 2   (1) wherein R 1 is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group; R 2 is a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having a carbon number of 1 to 5, each of which may have a substituent; Q is an alkylene group having a carbon number of 2 to 4, which may have a substituent; r represents an integer of 2 to 15; and X represents an oxygen atom or NH, and the number of atoms bonded linearly to each other in the structure of -(Q-O) r —R 2 is 70 or less.

Claims (31)

1. A cosmetic composition, comprising:

a copolymer having a constituent unit corresponding to (A) a vinyl monomer having a carboxyl group in a structure and a constituent unit corresponding to (B) a vinyl monomer represented by the following formula (1);

a cationic surfactant;

a higher alcohol; and

a silicone oil;

CH 2 ═C(R 1 )—CO—X-(Q-O) r —R 2   (1)

wherein in formula (1), R 1 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group; R 2 represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having a carbon number of 1 to 5, each of which may have a substituent; Q represents an alkylene group having a carbon number of 2 to 4, which may have a substituent; r represents an integer of 2 to 15; and X represents an oxygen atom or NH, provided that in formula (1), the number of atoms bonded linearly to each other in the structure of -(Q-O) r —R 2 is 70 or less, and

wherein a proportion of the constituent unit corresponding to the vinyl monomer (A) is from 15 to 60 mass % based on the total mass of the copolymer.

2. The cosmetic composition according to claim 1 ,

wherein a proportion of the constituent unit corresponding to the vinyl monomer (B) is from 40 to 85 mass % based on the total mass of the copolymer.

3. The cosmetic composition according to claim 1 ,

wherein the vinyl monomer (A) is represented by the following formula (2) or (3):

CH 2 ═C(R 3 )—CO—(—O(CH 2 ) m —CO) n —OH  (2)

wherein in formula (2), R 3 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group; m represents an integer of 1 to 4; and n represents an integer of 0 to 4:

CH 2 ═C(R 4 )—COO—(CH 2 ) p —OOC—(CH 2 ) q —COOH  (3)

wherein in formula (3), R 4 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group; and each of p and q independently represents an integer of 2 to 6.

4. The cosmetic composition according to claim 1 ,

wherein a weight average molecular weight of the copolymer is from 3,000 to 2,000,000.

5. The cosmetic composition according to claim 1 ,

wherein the copolymer further contains a constituent unit corresponding to (C) a vinyl monomer having an alkyl group with a carbon number of 12 to 22 in an amount of 40 mass % or less based on the total mass of the copolymer.

6. The cosmetic composition according to claim 1 , which comprises:

from 0.1 to 5 mass % of the copolymer; and

from 55 to 99.6 mass % of water.

7. The cosmetic composition according to claim 1 , which comprises:

from 0.1 to 20 mass % of the cationic surfactant.

8. The cosmetic composition according to claim 1 , which comprises: from 0.1 to 20 mass % of the higher alcohol.

9. The cosmetic composition according to claim 1 , which comprises: from 0.1 to 10 mass % of the silicone oil.

10. A hair cosmetic, comprising:

the cosmetic composition according to claim 1 .

11. A hair treatment cosmetic, comprising:

the cosmetic composition according to claim 1 .
