PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an external composition for skin effective for suppressing stickiness after application to the skin and imparting the skin with feelings such as slippery feeling and moist feeling.SOLUTION: The external composition for skin contains a compound (A) and an oily component expressed by formula (1), wherein the content of the oily component is 1.0-25% by weight, the weight ratio of compound (A) to the oily component (compound (A)/oily component) is 1/4-1, and the content of R1OH in the compound (A) is 3000 ppm or less. Formula (1): R1O-(PO)n-R2. (In formula (1), R1 is 8-12C alkyl or alkenyl which may be straight or branched-chain PO is a propyleneoxy group n, the average addition molar number of a propyleneoxy group, is 1.5-5.0 and R2 is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group.)COPYRIGHT: (C)2015,JPO&INPIT【課題】塗布後のべたつきを抑制し、滑り感やしっとり感等の感触を付与できる皮膚外用剤組成物を提供する。【解決手段】下記一般式(1)で表わされる化合物(A)及び油性成分を含有し、前記油性成分の含有量が1.0~25重量%であり、前記化合物(A)と前記油性成分との重量比(化合物(A)/油性成分)が1/4~1であり、化合物(A)中のR1OHの含有量が、3000ppm以下である、皮膚外用剤組成物。R1O-(PO)n-R2・・・(1)(式中、R1は炭素数8~12のアルキル基又はアルケニル基を示し、直鎖であっても分岐鎖であってもよく、POはプロピレンオキシ基を示し、nはプロピレンオキシ基の平均付加モル数で、1.5~5.0の数を示し、R2は水素原子又はメチル基を示す。)【選択図】なし
