PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an evaluation method of a skin condition capable of accurately and simply evaluating a skin condition, particularly texture due to fine unevenness on a skin surface.SOLUTION: In first, a plurality of polishing tools having different roughness on a polishing surface each other are selected from a polishing tool group having a polishing surface according to Japanese Industrial Standards, and a sample group consisting of a plurality of skin evaluation standard samples in which a polymer for a polishing surface on the plurality of selected polishing tools are produced by molding. Then, evaluation target skin is touched with a finger and the plurality of skin evaluation standard samples are touched with the finger for comparing the texture of the evaluation target skin with the texture of the plurality of skin evaluation standard samples so as to evaluate the skin condition of the evaluation target skin as the surface roughness of the skin evaluation standard samples having the closest texture to the evaluation target skin.COPYRIGHT: (C)2015,JPO&INPIT【課題】肌状態、特に肌表面の微細な凹凸に起因する触感を的確にかつ簡便に評価することができる肌状態評価方法を提供する。【解決手段】まず、日本工業規格に従う研磨面を備える研磨用工具群の中から研磨面の粗度が互いに異なる複数個の研磨用工具を選び、選ばれた複数個の研磨用工具の研磨面をそれぞれポリマーに型取りして作製した複数個の肌評価基準サンプルで構成されるサンプル群を準備する。次に、評価対象肌を指で触ると共に、複数個の肌評価基準サンプルを指で触り、評価対象肌の触感と複数個の肌評価基準サンプルの触感とを比較して、評価対象肌の触感に最も近い触感を持つ肌評価基準サンプルの表面粗度を評価対象肌の肌状態と評価する。【選択図】なし
