PURPOSE: To obtain a cosmetic effective for improving the moisture-retention of skin, having high compatibility with the skin and giving moist feeling to the skin by compounding a natural mineral water. CONSTITUTION: This cosmetic is compounded with natural mineral water and preferably incorporated with a moisture-retention component consisting of one or more compounds selected from polyhydric alcohol, mucopolysaccharide (preferably hyaluronic acid salt or chondroitin sulfate salt), a natural moisture-retention factor (preferably amino acids or lactic acid salts selected from pryrolidonecarboxylic acid salt, serine, glycine and alanine) and a cycodextrin derivative (preferably hydroxyalkylatedβ-cyclodextrin). The preferable examples of the natural mineral water are waters drawn up from the foot of the mount Fuji, the Rokko mountain in Hyogo prefecture, the Tanigawa mountain in Gunma prefecture and the foot of the Southern Japan Alps. The amount of the natural mineral water to be compounded to the cosmetic is preferably >=1wt.%, especially >=10wt.% based on the total amount of the cosmetic.
