A hair darkening dye composition, comprises: 2-98 parts by weight of hair dye; 1-99 parts by weight of darkening agent; 2-98 parts by weight of crosslinking agent; 2-98 parts by weight of emulsifier; 2-98 parts by weight of dyeing auxiliaries; and 0.1-40 parts by weight of pH regulator. The darkening agent is selected from one or more of chitin, chitosan, gelatin, silicon oil and resin. The chitin, chitosan and gelatin have a relative molecular weight of less than 2.7×10.sup.4, and the silicon oil and resin have a refractive index of less than 1.55.

A composition for external use containing a tranexamate as an active ingredient with suppressed sticky or oily feeling but having a fresh feel of use, and a method for producing the same. A tranexamate salt can be dispersed stably in an aqueous medium by (a) dissolving the tranexamate salt and an amphiphilic polymer in water, a water-soluble organic solvent or a mixture thereof; and (b) adding a mixed solution obtained in the step (a) to an aqueous medium, and thus keeping the tranexamate salt in molecular assembly particles formed of the amphiphilic polymer.

A composition may be or include detergents, cleaning agents, and cosmetic agents and include an emulsifier and biodegradable microcapsules. The biodegradable microcapsules may include a core material and a shell where the shell consists of at least one barrier layer and a stability layer. The barrier layer may surround the core material. The stability layer may include at least one biopolymer and be arranged on the outer surface of the barrier layer(s).

Provide is an eyelash ornament cosmetic characterized by containing at least a polymer emulsion, an extender and a viscosity regulator and controlling an average particle diameter of the extender to 1 μm more, wherein droplets put on the tips of eyelashes are dried and turned into fine spherical resin balls, and the tips of the eyelashes are ornamented to make it possible to provide the eyes with brilliantness and loveliness and further enhance stability of the quality.
