Disclosed is a solid lipstick composition comprising at least one polypropyl silsesquioxane film forming resin, at least one silicone acrylate copolymer, at least one volatile hydrocarbon solvent, and at least one wax, wherein the ratio of the silicone acrylate copolymer to the polypropyl silsesquioxane resin is from about 1:1 to about 1:4, said composition preferably having a hardness of at least 40 gf for an 8.1 mm diameter stick.

A solid lip cosmetic provides excellent effects of being prevented from secondary adhesion and also has excellent usability, long-lasting glossiness and stability. A solid lip cosmetic is characterized by comprising (a) 25 to 50% by mass of hydrogenated polyisobutene; (b) 20 to 70% by mass of at least one methylphenylsilicone component that can be separated from the component (a) when the component (b) is mixed with the component (a) at 25° C.; (c) 1 to 20% by mass of neopentyl glycol dicaprate that serves as a compatibility modifier that can adjust the compatibility of the component (a) with the component (b); and (d) 3 to 12% by mass of a wax.
