<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an oil-in-water type external preparation for the skin, which contains a high-molecular-weight polyethylene glycol, and has excellent rich texture, excellent long-term stability in a broad environmental temperature range from a lower temperature to a higher temperature and a good sensation on application. <P>SOLUTION: The oil-in-water-type external preparation for the skin is characterized by comprising (a) a high-molecular-weight polyethylene glycol, (b) a higher alcohol, (c) sodium-N-stearoyl-N-methyltaurine in an amount of less than 2.0 mass%, and (d) a nonionic surfactant. The high-molecular-weight polyethylene glycol is preferably polyethylene glycol 20,000 and (d) the nonionic surfactant is contained in an amount of 1.0 to 10.0 mass% relative to the total amount of the oil-in-water-type external preparation for the skin. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
