Powder body, the following monomer (a) - (c): (A) the below-mentioned general formula the monomer 55 - 65 mass which is shown with (1) % < Conversion 1 > (In formula, as for R1 H or CH3, as for p it is integer 2 - 6) (B) the below-mentioned general formula the monomer 20 - 30 mass which is shown with (2) % < Conversion 2 > (In formula, as for R2 H or CH3, as for R3 carbon count with alkyl group or phenyl group 1 - 5 a ru) (C) acrylic acid and/or methacrylic acid 15 - 20 mass %Polymerizing, it becomes, it is the surface coated powder body which is obtained shirokishi basic content (by the surface processing with meta) acrylic acid copolymer. This surface coated powder body is superior in the water resistance, is superior in adhesion to the skin. In addition, the make-up charge which contains this surface coated powder body, without causing the strange feeling and the burden impression to the skin after the applying, becomes skin adhesion and something which is superior in make-up continuance.粉体を、次のモノマー(a)~(c):(a)下記一般式(1)で示されるモノマー 55~65質量%【化1】(式中、R1はH又はCH3、pは2~6の整数である)(b)下記一般式(2)で示されるモノマー 20~30質量%【化2】(式中、R2はH又はCH3、R3は炭素数1~5のアルキル基又はフェニル基である)(c)アクリル酸及び/又はメタクリル酸 15~20質量%を重合してなる、シロキシ基含有(メタ)アクリル酸系共重合体で表面処理することにより得られる表面被覆粉体である。この表面被覆粉体は耐水性に優れ、肌への付着性に優れる。また、この表面被覆粉体を含有した化粧料は、塗布後の肌への違和感や負担感を生じずに、肌付着性と化粧持続に優れたものとなる。
