N-ε-long chain acyllsine crystals, process for producing the same and cosmetics containing the same

Abstract

There are provided cosmetics which have not only a reduced effect on the “gleam” caused by irregular light reflection but also a reduced effect on “stickiness” based on an oil raw material, giving a good feeling during use such as spreadability, etc., and being excellent in the sustaining of the makeup effect. There are used Nε-long chain acyllysine crystals whose average diameter or mode diameter lies in the range of 3˜15 μm without being subjected to the mechanical pulverization.
