W/O/W EMULSION COMPOSITION

摘要

Disclosed is a W/O/W emulsion composition having high emulsion stability, which can be prepared very easily and enables to efficiently produce a W/O/W emulsion. Also disclosed is a method for producing such a W/O/W emulsion composition. Specifically disclosed is a W/O/W emulsion composition characterized by containing 0.001-60% by mass of the component (A) below and 0.001-10% by mass of the component (B) below, with the mass ratio between the component (A) and the component (B) being within the range from 1:0.01 to 1:1.4. Component (A): a sugar fatty acid ester composition obtained by esterifying a sugar and a fatty acid having 8-28 carbon atoms, which has a hydroxyl number of 20-220 Component (B): a nonionic surfactant having an HLB of not less than 7
