Disclosed is a cosmetic preparation characterized by containing (A) an amphoteric surfactant or an anionic surfactant, and (B) an acrylic polymer which contains, as constitutional units, 70-95% by mole of a monomer unit represented by general formula (1) and 5-30% by mole of a monomer unit represented by general formula (2). The cosmetic preparation is also characterized in that the mass ratio (A)/(B) is within the range of 0.1-50.0. (In the formulae, R1 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group； R2 represents a hydrogen atom or a -CH2OH group； A represents an oxygen atom or an -NH- group； R3 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group； and M represents a hydrogen atom, an alkali metal atom, an ammonium or an amine.)
