An object of the present invention is to provide an oil-in-water emulsified cosmetic that can be easily produced without using a powerful wet disperser such as a bead mill and can be prepared even in a system that does not contain silicone. The present invention includes an aqueous phase, an oil phase dispersed in the aqueous phase, and a powder dispersed in the oil phase, the oil phase comprising (a) volatile hydrocarbon oil and (b) non-volatile The total amount of the basic hydrocarbon oil is 40% by mass or more based on the total oil content, and the blending ratio of (a) volatile hydrocarbon oil and (b) non-volatile hydrocarbon oil {(b) / (a)} Is within the range of 0 to 2.5, and the powder has been subjected to surface hydrophobization treatment by a metal soap treatment comprising a higher fatty acid and a divalent metal or a composite treatment of a higher fatty acid and a divalent metal hydroxide. The present invention relates to an oil-in-water emulsified cosmetic comprising a powder.
