Problem To provide a hair styling cosmetic composition which is excellent in hair styling property, hair restyling property and hair set retention property, even though being water-based and having a low viscosity, and is excellent in non-stickiness, smoothness, and light finish of the hair. Means for Resolution A hair styling cosmetic composition comprising (a) a surfactant being solid at room temperature (25°C) in an amount of from 1.5 to 12% by mass, (b) one or more substances being solid at room temperature selected from among (b 1 ) a sugar alcohol, (b 2 ) a sugar, (b 3 ) a polyalkylene glycol polymer, and (b 4 ) an inorganic salt, (c) a mono-to tetra-alcohol derivative and/or a sugar alcohol derivative, which are liquid at room temperature, and (d) a film-forming polymer, wherein the total amount of component (a) and component (b) is at least 6% by mass, and the viscosity of the system is at most 10,000 mPa·s (at 25°C with B-type viscometer) .本發明係揭示一種整髮用化妝料,其係含有(a)常溫(25℃)下為固體之界面活性劑1.5~12質量%、(b)常溫下為固體之選自(b1)糖醇、(b2)糖、(b3)聚烷伸二醇聚合物及(b4)無機鹽中之1種或2種以上、與(c)常溫下為液體之1~4元醇衍生物以及/或糖醇衍生物及(d)皮膜形成性高分子,(a)成分及(b)成分之合計混合量係6質量%以上,系統的黏度為10,000mPa.s以下(25℃,B型黏度計)。本發明之整髮用化妝料屬於水性系,低黏度同時具有優異的整髮能力、再整髮能力、髮型維持能力,且具有不會產生黏膩感、滑順及使完成之髮型具輕盈感等優點。
