A method for forming a coating on a skin surface using a nanofiber sheet, the method including: (1) applying to the skin a sheet transparentizing agent containing 2 mass % or more of one or more oil agent; and (2) transferring a white nanofiber sheet mainly composed of a water-insoluble polymer to the skin after (1), where the transferred white nanofiber sheet becomes transparent and the coating is a transparent coating through which the skin is visible.

Suggested is a composition with stabilized taste and/or odor, comprising (a) at least one acetophenone derivative of formula (I) wherein R.sub.1 stands for hydrogen or methyl, and R.sub.2 stands for hydrogen, hydroxyl or a —OCH.sub.3 group, or a cosmetically pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and (b) at least one mono- or polyunsaturated C.sub.8-C.sub.22 fatty acid or its monohydric polyhydric C.sub.1-C.sub.18 alkyl alcohols ester. ##STR00001##

A low-viscosity water-in-oil cosmetic emulsion preparation gives a smooth use feeling, lightly spreads when applied, and has excellent dispersed-powder stability. The cosmetic emulsion preparation has (A) a polar oil which is liquid at 25° C. and has an IOB value exceeding 0.1, (B) a hydrocarbon oil, (C) a polyoxyalkylene; and alkyl-modified organopolysiloxane represented by general formula (I), and (D) a powder surface-treated with both an N-acylamino acid and methylpolysiloxane. (In formula (I), R represents a hydrogen atom or a C1-5 alkyl group, x is an integer of 5-50, y is an integer of 1-30, z is an integer of 20-200, a is an integer of 2-20, b is an integer of 1-5, c is an integer of 2-20, and d is an integer of 0-20). ##STR00001##

The present invention relates to a cosmetic for application to a user's skin. The cosmetic is provided with a colorant including iron oxides. The cosmetic also includes a high buffering-capacity agent configured to react with an external acidic source coming in contact with the cosmetic and to inhibit release of iron ions from the iron oxides.
