Disclosed is an economically advantageous method for producing an O/W emulsion composition whereby an O/W emulsion composition can be easily produced without using any special cooling device. This method for producing an O/W emulsion composition is characterized by comprising: preparing an emulsified part by emulsifying, at a temperature of 70oC or higher, an oily phase comprising a nonionic surfactant (A), a linear higher alcohol (B) that has 16 or more carbon atoms and can form, together with said nonionic surfactant, an a-gel in water, and an oily component (C), with a portion of an aqueous phase comprising water (D); under stirring this emulsified part, mixing the same with the remainder of the main aqueous phase at 10 to 35oC and continuing the stirring until the temperature is reduced to the lower limit of the temperature range, wherein the oily phase can form an a-gel in the aqueous phase, or below; and then stopping the stirring. |
