PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To develop technology of effectively exerting an ultraviolet ray protection effect of a sunscreen cosmetic achieved by compounding an inorganic ultraviolet ray scattering agent, that is, to improve an ultraviolet ray protection effect of the sunscreen cosmetic by designing the prescription, the effect achieved by compounding an inorganic ultraviolet ray scattering agent compounded into the sunscreen cosmetic.SOLUTION: The sunscreen cosmetic and a method for producing the sunscreen cosmetic are characterized by compounding an inorganic ultraviolet ray scattering agent comprising a hydrophobic particulate metal oxide, tubular basic magnesium carbonate, and an oil content. A method for increasing an SPF (sun protection factor) value is provided, in which tubular basic magnesium carbonate is compounded into a sunscreen cosmetic having the SPF value containing an oil content and an inorganic ultraviolet ray scattering agent comprising a hydrophobic particulate metal oxide, to increase the SPF value.COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT【課題】無機紫外線散乱剤配合によって奏される日焼け止め化粧料の紫外線防御効果を有効に発揮させる技術を開発することにある。すなわち、日焼け止め化粧料に配合される無機紫外線散乱剤配合によってもたらされる日焼け止め化粧料の紫外線防御効果を処方の組み立てによって向上させることを目的とする。【解決手段】疎水性微粒子金属酸化物からなる無機紫外線散乱剤、管状塩基性炭酸マグネシウム及び油分を配合することを特徴とする日焼け止め化粧料及びその製造方法。さらに、疎水性微粒子金属酸化物からなる無機紫外線散乱剤及び油分を含有したSPF値を有する日焼け止め化粧料に、管状塩基性炭酸マグネシウムを配合して前記SPF値を上昇させる方法。【選択図】なし
