PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a transparent or translucent cosmetic that excels in rapid skin familiarity, non-stickiness when being dried, and preparation stability.SOLUTION: The transparent or translucent cosmetic includes: (a) a silicone surfactant shown by formula (I) and (b) a block type alkylene oxide derivative shown by formula (II). In the formula (I), R1 denotes a 1-6C alkyl group R2 denotes a hydrogen atom or a 1-6 alkyl group and k is an average addition mole number of an oxyethylene group and denotes the number of 3-20. In the formula (II), Z denotes a residue excluding a hydroxyl group from a dimer diol AO denotes a 3-4C oxyalkylene group, EO denotes an oxyethylene group and the addition form thereof is a block form a and b each denote the average addition mole number of AO and EO, 1≤2×a≤150, and 1≤2×b≤150 the proportion of the oxyethylene group is 10-99 mass% based on the total amount of the 3-4C oxyalkylene group and the oxyethylene group and R3 may identically or differently denote a 1-4C hydrocarbon group.COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT【課題】肌へのなじみの早さ、乾き際のべたつきのなさ、製剤安定性に優れる透明乃至半透明の化粧料の提供。【解決手段】(a)式(I)に示すシリコーン系界面活性剤と、(b)式(II)に示すブロック型アルキレンオキシド誘導体を含有する、透明乃至半透明の化粧料。【選択図】なし
