Description: FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a cosmetic composition. More particularly, this invention relates to a cosmetic composition which has excellent stability and which, after being applied, shows high water repellency, gives smooth use feeling, and is less apt to wash off from sweating. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The demand for make-up preparations has been diversified steadily in recent years. In response to this, not only the kinds of make-up preparation products, e.g., lip rouges, foundations, face powders, nail enamels, and so forth, have increased, but also each of such preparations is being marketed as various forms including liquid, powder, solid, and emulsion. It should, in particular, be noted that compared to conventional ones, present-day cosmetics have come to be required to have better physical and chemical properties such as water resistance, perspiration resistance (resistance to sebaceous matter), and wear resistance. In order to satisfy such requirements, use of a silicone resin having film-forming ability has been proposed. Examples of known applications of film-forming silicone resins to cosmetics include: a make-up cosmetic composition employing a product of hydrolytic condensation of a dichlorosilane and a trichlorosilane for the purpose of imparting water and oil resistance (JP-A-61-18708) (The term "JP-A" as used herein means an "unexamined published Japanese patent application".); a cosmetic composition containing a silicone resin comprising R n SiO (4-n)/2 units and either a volatile hydrocarbon oil or a volatile silicone oil (JP-A-61-158910, JP-A-61-158913, JP-A-61-158914, JP-A-61-161209, and JP-A-61-161211); a hair cosmetic composition containing a silicone resin comprising R n SiO (4-n)/2 units and a high molecular weight silicone oil (JP-A-63-313713); a cosmetic composition containing a mixture of a silicone resin comprising RSiO 3/2 units, SiO 2 units, and R 2 SiO units and a silicone resin comprising RSiO 3/2 units and SiO 2 units (JP-A-2-42008); a skin cosmetic composition containing a resin comprising (R) 3 SiO 1/2 units and SiO 2 units and a volatile silicone oil (JP-A-61-65808 and JP-A-61-65809); a sunscreen cosmetic composition containing a resin comprising SiO 2 units, RSiO 3/2 units, and R 2 SiO units and a volatile silicone oil (JP-A-62-234012); a cosmetic composition which contains a silicone resin comprising R 3 SiO 1/2 units and SiO 2 units and further comprising R 2 SiO units and/or RSiO 3/2 units and may also contain a volatile silicone oil or a silicone powder (JP-A-62-298511, JP-A-62-298512, JP-A-62-298518, and JP-A-62-298519); and a hair fixative cosmetic composition comprising a rigid silicone polymer and a volatile carrier (JP-A-63-22010). Further, applications of cured silicone resin powders to cosmetics are known. Examples thereof include a cosmetic composition containing powder particles of a cured organopolysiloxane (JP-A-61-194009, JP-A-63-313710, and JP-A-2-243612) and a make-up preparation containing truly spherical powder particles of polymethylsilsesquioxane (JP-A-63-297313). However, these cosmetics have drawbacks. For example, the silicone resins described in JP-A-61-18708 and JP-A-62-234012 are defective in that they have poor stability because molecular weight control is difficult in the production thereof and a large number of reactive functional groups remain in the silicone resins. The silicone resins described in the other JP-A's are defective in that although the amount of reactive functional groups remaining in the silicone resin can be reduced by selecting proper siloxane structural units, it has been still difficult to obtain sufficient stability. In addition, skin preparations employing the silicone resin described in JP-A-61-65808 and JP-A-61-65809 are disadvantageous in, for example, that films formed from the preparations are too sticky and have a poor skin-protective effect. Therefore, improvements in these drawbacks have been desired. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present inventors have conducted intensive studies to overcome the problems of the prior art cosmetics. As a result, it has been found that a useful cosmetic composition can be obtained when a silicone resin comprising R 1 SiO 1.5 units and R 2 3 SiO 0.5 units (wherein R 1 and R 2 each represents a substituted or unsubstituted monovalent hydrocarbon group) in a specific proportion is blended, especially when a silicone resin obtained by blocking silanol groups of a silanol group-containing organopolysilsesquioxane comprising R 1 SiO 1.5 units with a triorganosilyl group is blended. The present invention has been completed based on this finding. Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a cosmetic composition, e.g., a make-up cosmetic composition, skin cosmetic composition, or hair cosmetic composition, which is free from the above-described problems, that is, which after being applied, has sufficient water repellency, lasts long, and gives good use feeling. The cosmetic composition according to the present invention comprises a silicone resin comprising from 50 to 99 mol% of R 1 SiO 1.5 units wherein R 1 represents a substituted or unsubstituted monovalent hydrocarbon group and from 1 to 50 mol% of R 2 3 SiO 0.5 units wherein R 2 represents a substituted or unsubstituted monovalent hydrocarbon group, sum of the R 1 SiO 1.5 units and R 2 3 SiO 0.5 being 100 mol%. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Examples of R 1 and R 2 , which are the same or different and each represents a substituted or unsubstituted monovalent hydrocarbon group, include an alkyl group (e.g., methyl, ethyl, propyl, and butyl), an alkenyl group (e.g., vinyl and ally), an aryl group (e.g., phenyl and tolyl), a cycloalkyl group (e.g., cyclohexyl and cyclooctyl), and groups formed by replacing one or more of the carbon-bonded hydrogen atoms in those groups with halogen atom, cyano group, amino group, or other substituent (e.g., chloromethyl, 3,3,3-trifluoropropyl, cyanomethyl, γ-aminopropyl, and N-(β-aminoethyl)-γ-aminopropyl). Of these, methyl group, ethyl group, and phenyl group are preferred from the standpoints of easiness of synthesis and availability of raw materials, and methyl group, 3,3,3-trifluoropropyl group, and phenyl group are preferred from the standpoint of water repellency. In the silicone resin used in the present invention, the content of R 2 3 SiO 0.5 units should be from 1 to 50 mol% units in all the siloxane units. If the content of R 2 3 SiO 0.5 units is below 1 mol%, the effects of the present invention cannot be produced sufficiently. If the content thereof is higher than 50 mol%, such a silicone resin is difficult to synthesize. It is preferable that the silicone resin comprises from 80 to 95 mol% of R 1 SiO 1.5 units and from 5 to 20 mol% of R 2 3 SiO 0.5 units. The silicone resin used in the cosmetic composition of the present invention can be obtained by reacting (A) 100 parts by weight of a silanol group-containing organopolysilsesquioxane comprising R 1 SiO 1.5 units wherein R 1 is the same as defined above with (B) from 5 to 100 parts by weight of a silicone compound represented by (R 2 3 Si) a Z wherein R 2 is the same as defined above, a is an integer of 1 or 2, and when a is 1, Z represents hydrogen atom, hydroxyl group, or a hydrolyzable group and when a is 2, Z represents -O-, -N(X)-, or -S-, wherein X represents hydrogen atom, a monovalent hydrocarbon group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or R 2 3 Si-. Examples of the hydrolyzable group of Z include an alkoxy group (e.g., methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, isopropoxy, and butoxy), an alkenyloxy group (e.g., propenoxy), an acyloxy group (e.g., acetoxy and benzoxy), an organooxime group (e.g., acetone oxime and butanone oxime), an organoaminoxy group (e.g., dimethylaminoxy and diethylaminoxy), an organoamino group (e.g., dimethylamino, diethylamino, and cyclohexylamino), and an organoamido group (e.g., N-methylacetamido). Of these, the alkoxy group, especially methoxy and ethoxy, are preferred from the standpoints of availability of raw materials and easiness of reaction control. The polysilsesquioxane, ingredient (A), can be synthesized by a conventional method. For example, it may be obtained by hydrolytic condensation of an organotrichlorosilane or an organotrialkoxysilane using excess water. In such reactions, polysilsesquioxanes having various degrees of polymerization can be obtained by changing or controlling the amount of water, kind of hydrolysis catalyst, time and temperature for the condensation reaction, and other factors. The polysilsesquioxanes thus obtained generally contain silanol groups, and a lower silanol group content can be attained by increasing the degree of polymerization of the polymer. Since the silicone resin used in the cosmetic composition of the present invention preferably is solid at room temperature and contains no or only a slight amount of volatile matter, it is preferred that the silanol group-containing organopolysilsesquioxane used to produce the silicone resin has a molecular weight of 1,000 or more. From the standpoint of obtaining a silicone resin which is solid and nonsticky at room temperature, it is especially preferable that the molecular weight of the organopolysilsesquioxane is 6,000 or more. From the standpoint of obtaining a silicone resin having good thermoplasticity, it is preferable that the molecular weight of the organopolysilsesquioxane is 20,000 or less, more preferably 15,000 or less. Such polysilsesquioxanes, in general, have silanol group contents of from 1 to 10% by weight. In the present invention, however, it is preferred to use a polysilsesquioxane having a silanol group content of from 1 to 5% by weight. Most of such polysilsesquioxanes are liquid or solid having thermoplastic property at room temperature and heat-cure upon long-term heating at high temperatures. Of these, a polysilsesquioxane having a softening point of from 10 to 300°C is preferred in that it can produce a silicone resin which shows good properties when used in cosmetic compositions. The silicone compound, ingredient (B), represented by (R 2 3 Si) a Z functions to silylate silanol groups of ingredient (A). Specific examples of ingredient (B) include hydrogensilanes such as trimethylsilane and triethylsilane; chlorosilanes such as trimethylchlorosilane, triethylchlorosilane, triphenylchlorosilane, and CF 3 (CH 2 ) 2 Si(CH 3 ) 2 Cl; silanols such as trimethylsilanol; alkoxysilanes such as trimethylmethoxysilane, trimethylethoxysilane, aminosilanes such as (CH 3 ) 3 SiNHCH 3 , (CH 3 ) 3 SiNHC 2 H 5 , (CH 3 ) 3 SiN(CH 3 ) 2 , and (CH 3 ) 3 SiN(C 2 H 5 ) 2 ; acyloxysilanes such as (CH 3 ) 3 SiOCOCH 3 ; and silazanes such as hexamethyldisilazane, 1,3-divinyltetramethyldisilazane, Of these, silazanes and chiorosilanes are preferred from the standpoint that reaction control and removal of unreacted raw materials are easy. The reaction of ingredient (A) with ingredient (B) can be carried out according to a conventional method for the silylation of silanols. For example, where ingredient (B) is a silazane or a chlorosilane, the reaction easily proceeds by merely mixing ingredient (A) and ingredient (B) and heating the mixture. The amount of ingredient (B) used preferably is from 5 to 100 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of ingredient (A). If the amount of ingredient (B) is below 5 parts by weight, sufficient silylation cannot be conducted, so that the reaction mixture may gel during reaction or the thus-obtained silicone resin may have poor thermal stability. The amount of ingredient (B) larger than 100 parts by weight is not preferred in that not only a considerable part of the ingredient (B) remain unreacted and this is economically disadvantageous, but also it requires much times to remove the unreacted part of ingredient (B). It is preferable that the silylation reaction described above is conducted in an organic solvent in order to regulate reaction temperature and to control a condensation reaction which may take place as a side reaction. Examples of the organic solvent include hydrocarbon solvents such as toluene, xylene, hexane, industrial gasolines, mineral spirit, and kerosene, ether solvents such as tetrahydrofuran and dioxane, and chlorinated hydrocarbon solvents such as dichloromethane and dichloroethane. The temperature for the silylation reaction is not particularly limited, but it is preferred to arbitrarily determine the temperature in the range of from room temperature to 200°C. By-products, such as hydrochloric acid, ammonia, ammonium chloride, and alcohols, resulting from the silylation reaction can be removed by washing with water or removed by evaporation simultaneously with the solvent. The silicone resin obtained by the method described above is generally a thermoplastic resin having a softening point of from 5 to 300°C. It is preferred that the silicone resin to be blended with the cosmetic composition of the present invention has a softening point of 50°C or more because use of such a silicone resin enables the preparation to show nonstickiness. For use as such a silicone resin, two or more silicone resins having different softening points may be blended in a proportion such that the resins have a softening point of 50°C or more. From the standpoint of obtaining a cosmetic composition showing good luster, a silicone resin having a softening point of 200°C or less is preferred. An especially preferred range of the softening point of the silicone resin for use in the cosmetic composition of the present invention is from 80 to 150°C. The silicone resin used in the present invention is characterized in that due to the silylation of silanol groups, the amount of silanol groups remaining in the silicone resin is as small as 0.5% by weight or less. Because of such a low silanol group content, the silicone resin does not cure even upon long-term heating or the like and shows good stability. It is preferable for the silicone resin used in the present invention to have a silanol group content of from 0.01 to 0.3% by weight because such a silicone resin can impart good properties to the cosmetic composition. The molecular weight of a silicone resin to be produced is determined by the molecular weight of the polysilsesquioxane, ingredient (A), as a raw material therefor, the amount of silanol groups to be silylated, the kind of ingredient (B) as a silylating agent, and the like. A preferred range of the molecular weight of the silicone resin is almost the same as that for ingredient (A). Specifically, the preferred range thereof is from 1,000 to 20,000, more preferably from 6,000 to 15,000, because such a silicone resin can impart good properties to the cosmetic composition of the present invention. The silicone resin used in the present invention is a liquid or a solid having thermoplasticity. This resin is soluble in organic solvents and can be emulsified with an emulsifying agent or the like. Therefore, this silicone resin is different from cured silicone resins which do not have thermoplasticity and are insoluble in solvents and which are generally known as silicone resin powders. As described above, the silicone resin used in the present invention is obtained by synthesizing a polysilsesquioxane by polymerization of, for example, the organotrichlorosilane or organotrialkoxysilane, and then silylating silanol groups of the resulting polymer with ingredient (B), and is characterized to have both a preferred degree of polymerization and a low silanol group content. If the starting material for ingredient (A) (e.g., organotrichlorosilane or organotrialkoxysilane) and ingredient (B) are subjected to hydrolytic co-condensation to obtain a conventional silicone resin, the thus-obtained silicone resin has a high silanol group content and a silicone resin having a low silanol group content like the silicone resin as used in the present invention cannot be obtained. Although such a high silanol group content may be decreased by conducting a condensation reaction by heating or the like, the resin is cured by the treatment. Hence, it is difficult to obtain, by such a method, a silicone resin having thermoplasticity and stability to heating, such as the silicone resin used in the present invention. By blending the thus-obtained silicone resin with other ingredients described below in an amount of from 0.1 to 99% by weight based on the weight of the cosmetic composition, a cosmetic composition can be obtained such as a make-up cosmetic composition, e.g., a foundation, pressed powder, eyeshadow, nail enamel, or lipstick, a skin cosmetic composition, a hair cosmetic composition, or other cosmetic compositions. Raw materials conventionally used for cosmetics may be suitably selected according to the kind of the cosmetic composition of the present invention and blended therewith in addition to the above-described silicone resin as an essential component. Examples of such raw materials include oily materials such as various kinds of hydrocarbons, higher fatty acids, oils and fats, esters, higher alcohols, waxes, and silicone oils, e.g., squalane, liquid paraffins, isoparaffins, vaseline, microcrystalline waxes, ozokerite, ceresin, myristic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, oleic acid, isostearic acid, cetyl alcohol, stearyl alcohol, hexadecyl alcohol, oleyl alcohol, cetyl 2-ethylhexanoate, 2-ethylhexyl palmitate, 2-octyldodecyl myristate, 2-octyldodecyl gum esters, neopentyl glycol 2-ethylhexanoate, isooctylic acid triglyceride, 2-octyldodecyl oleate, isopropyl myristate, isopropyl palmitate, isostearic acid triglyceride, coconut oil fatty acid triglyceride, olive oil, avocado oil, bees wax, myristyl myristate, mink oil, and lanolin; organic solvents such as acetone, toluene, butyl acetate, and ethyl acetate; resins such as alkyd resins, acrylic resins, and urea resins; plasticizers such as camphor and acetyl tributyl citrate; and other ingredients such as ultraviolet absorbers, antioxidants, antiseptics, surfactants, humectants, perfumes, water, alcohols, and thickeners. Powdery materials may be added to the cosmetic composition of the present invention. Examples thereof include inorganic powders such as powders of talc, kaolin, sericite, common mica, synthetic mica, phlogopite, lepidolite, biotite, lithia mica, vermiculite, magnesium carbonate, calcium carbonate, diatomaceous earth, magnesium silicate, calcium silicate, aluminum silicate, barium silicate, barium sulfate, strontium silicate, metal salts of tungstic acid, silica, hydroxyapatite, zeolite, boron nitride, and ceramics; organic powders such as nylon powder, polyethylene powder, benzoguanamine powder, polytetrafluoroethylene powder, distyrene-benzene pinhole polymer powder, and fine crystals of cellulose; silicone powders such as powders of silicone rubbers and silicone resins; inorganic white pigments such as titanium oxide and zinc oxide; inorganic red pigments such as iron oxide (red iron oxide) and iron titanate; inorganic brown pigments such as γ-iron oxide; inorganic yellow pigments such as yellow iron oxide and loess; inorganic black pigments such as black iron oxide and carbon black; inorganic violet pigments such as manganese violet and cobalt violet; inorganic green pigments such as chromium oxide, chromium hydroxide, and cobalt titanate; inorganic blue pigments such as ultramarine and Prussian blue; pearlescent pigments such as titanium oxide-coated mica, titanium oxide-coated bismuth oxychloride, bismuth oxychloride, titanium oxide-coated talc, pearl essence, and colored titanium oxide-coated mica; metal powder pigments such as aluminum powder and copper powder; organic pigments such as Red No.201, Red No.202, Red No.204, Red No.205, Red No.220, Red No.226, Red No.228, Red No.405, Orange No.203, Orange No.204, Yellow No.205, Yellow No.401, and Blue No.404; other organic pigments such as zirconium, barium, or aluminum lakes of Red No.3, Red No.104, Red No.106, Red No.227, Red No.203, Red No.401, Red No.505, Orange No.205, Yellow No.4, Yellow No.5, Yellow No.202, Yellow No.203, Green No.3, and Blue No.1; and natural dyes such as chlorophyll and β-carotene. Powdery materials that can be added to the cosmetic composition of the present invention are not limited to these examples. The cosmetic composition of the present invention spreads well and, after being applied to the skin, gives nonsticky and dry feeling, does not wash off from sweating or the like, and is less apt to be washed off by washing with water or the like. Thus, the cosmetic composition has good properties. In addition, the cosmetic composition of the present invention shows good stability over a long period of time. Where the cosmetic composition according to the present invention is a hair cosmetic composition, it imparts softness, nonsticky and dry feeling, ease of combing, and good luster to the hair and shows good hair-setting properties and high moisture resistance due to excellent water repellency. Where the cosmetic composition of the present invention is a skin cosmetic composition, it gives nonsticky and dry feeling and shows good water resistance due to excellent water repellency. Further, in the case of a make-up cosmetic composition, it spreads well evenly, lasts long due to excellent water repellency and water resistance, and gives luster, good appearance depending on the coloring properties of the pigments employed, and good slip properties. The present invention will be explained in more detail by reference to the following examples. In the Synthesis Examples, Examples, and Comparative Examples, all parts and percents are by weight and the viscosity values are measured at 25°C. PREPARATION EXAMPLE 1 Into a flask were introduced 220 parts (1 mol) of methyltriisopropoxysilane and 150 parts of toluene. 108 Parts of hydrochloric acid having a hydrogen chloride concentration of 1% was added thereto dropwise over a period of 20 minutes with stirring to hydrolyze the silane. 40 Minutes after the dropwise addition, the stirring was stopped and the reaction mixture was separated into an aqueous phase and an organic phase. The organic phase was separated from the aqueous phase and washed with water to remove the hydrochloric acid. Further, the toluene was removed under a reduced pressure, thereby preparing a methylpolysilsesquioxane, P-1, having a molecular weight of 12,000, softening point of 115°C, and silanol group content of 1.2%. Into a flask were then introduced 100 parts of the thus-prepared polysilsesquioxane, 200 parts of toluene, 10 parts of trimethylchlorosilane, and 50 parts of hexamethyldisilazane. The resulting mixture was stirred for 2 hours with heating at the reflux temperature of the toluene. By-products of the reaction, i.e., ammonia and hydrochloric acid or salts thereof, were removed from the reaction mixture by water-washing, and the toluene was removed by evaporation under a reduced pressure. Thus, a trimethylsilyl-substituted silicone resin, A-1, having a softening point of 80°C was obtained. This silicone resin A-1 had a silanol group content of 0.3%. In this preparation example and other preparation examples described hereinafter, softening points were measured in accordance with the ring-and-ball softening point method as provided for in JIS C 2104. Molecular weights were measured using a gel permeation chromatograph (HLC-802U, manufactured by Tosoh Corp., Japan) and calculated for standard polystyrene. In this example, the molecular weight of the methylpolysilsesquioxane and that of the silylated silicone resin were found to be almost the same. Further, the silanol group content of a silicone resin was determined by heating the resin at 300°C for 2 hours, measuring the amount of water generated during the two-hour heating by means of a coulometric water meter, Type CA-06 (manufactured by Mitsubishi Kasei Corporation, Japan), and then calculating the silanol group content using the following equation. Silanol group content (%) = (Amount of water generated) × 34/18 Weight of the silicone resin × 100 PREPARATION EXAMPLE 2 The same procedures as in Preparation Example 1 were conducted except that hydrochloric acid having a hydrogen chloride concentration of 0.5% was used in place of the hydrochloric acid used in Preparation Example 1. As a result, a methylpolysilsesquioxane, P-2, having a molecular weight of 2,000, softening point of 45°C, and silanol group content of 4.5% and a trimethylsilyl-substituted silicone resin, A-2, having a softening point of 10°C were obtained. This silicone resin A-2 had a silanol group content of 0.4%. PREPARATION EXAMPLE 3 Methylpolysilsesquioxane P-1 was treated in the same manner as in Preparation Example 1 except that 3,3,3-trifluoropropyldimethylchlorosilane and bis(3,3,3-trifluoropropyl)tetramethyldisilazane were used in place of trimethylchlorosilane and hexamethyldisilazane, respectively. As a result, a silylated silicone resin, A-3, having a softening point of 85°C was obtained. This silicone resin A-3 had a silanol group content of 0.3%. PREPARATION EXAMPLE 4 The same procedures as in Preparation Example 1 were conducted except that 110 parts (0.5 mol) of methyltriisopropoxysilane and 105.8 parts (0.5 mol) of phenyltrichlorosilane were used in place of 220 parts (1.0 mol) of methyltriisopropoxysilane and water was used in place of hydrochloric acid having a hydrogen chloride concentration of 1%. As a result, an organopolysilsesquioxane, P-3, having a molecular weight of 13,000, softening point of 130°C, and silanol group content of 2.5% and a trimethylsilyl-substituted silicone resin, A-4, having a softening point of 95°C were obtained. This silicone resin A-4 had a silanol group content of 0.4%. PREPARATION EXAMPLE 5 The same procedures as in Preparation Example 1 were conducted except that 176 parts (0.8 mol) of methyltriisopropoxysilane and 46.3 parts (0.2 mol) of 3,3,3-trifluoropropyltrichlorosilane were used in place of 220 parts (1.0 mol) of methyltriisopropoxysilane and water was used in place of hydrochloric acid having a hydrogen chloride concentration of 1%. As a result, an organopolysilsesquioxane, P-4, having a molecular weight of 8,000, softening point of 105°C, and silanol group content of 2.0% and a trimethylsilyl-substituted silicone resin, A-5, having a softening point of 71°C were obtained. This silicone resin A-5 had a silanol group content of 0.3%. PREPARATION EXAMPLE 6 (comparative) The same procedures for preparing polysilsesquioxane P-1 in Preparation Example 1 were conducted except that co-hydrolysis was performed using 166.4 parts (0.8 mol) of tetraethoxysilane and 20.8 parts (0.2 mol) of trimethylmethoxysilane in place of the hydrolysis of 220 parts (1.0 mol) of methyltriisopropoxysilane. As a result, a silicone resin, B-1, having a molecular weight of 2,000 and a silanol group content of 4.5% was obtained as a comparative resin. PREPARATION EXAMPLE 7 (comparative) The same procedures for preparing polysilsesquioxane P-1 in Preparation Example 1 were conducted except that co-hydrolysis was performed using 66 parts (0.3 mol) of methyltriisopropoxysilane, 41.6 parts (0.4 mol) of trimethylmethoxysilane, and 36 parts (0.3 mol) of dimethyldimethoxysilane in place of the hydrolysis of 220 parts (1.0 mol) of methyltriisopropoxysilane. As a result, a silicone resin, B-2, having a molecular weight of 3,000 and a silanol group content of 3.0% was obtained as a comparative resin. The silicone resins obtained in Preparation Examples 1, 4, 6, and 7 were evaluated for stability by the following method. [Stability of Silicone Resins] Evaluation Method Each of the silicone resins was dissolved in isopropyl alcohol at a concentration of 20% and this solution was allowed to stand at room temperature for one month. Whether each solution underwent a change in appearance or viscosity through the standing was examined. The results obtained are shown in Table 1. Silicone resin A-1 A-4 P-1 P-3 B-1 B-2 Initial appearance Colorless and clear Appearance change No change Turned milky Viscosity change No change Increased Hair cosmetic compositions, skin cosmetic compositions, make-up cosmetic compositions, and the like were formulated using the silicone resins prepared above, and these cosmetic compositions were evaluated. [Hair Cosmetic Compositions] Evaluation Method Curl Retention: A standard hair sample having a length of 15 cm was curled using a curler in a manner such that the curled hair has a length of about 8 cm. In this curling, the hair sample was wound on the curler, with a hair fixative composition being applied thereto, and the hair sample was revolved on the curler at 25 rpm so that the hair cosmetic composition was surely dispersed uniformly throughout the hair sample. Thereafter, the thus-curled hair sample was hung from a peg in a cabinet having a temperature of 24°C and a relative humidity of 90%, and allowed to stand for 3 hours. The length of the resulting hair sample was measured and the curl retention was calculated using the following equation. Curl retention (%) = Hair length just after curling Hair length after standing × 100 Moisture Absorption: Hair samples coated with a hair fixative composition were allowed to stand for 3 hours in atmospheres having relative humidities of 40%, 60%, and 80%, and the amount of water (%) absorbed by each hair sample during the standing was measured. Feelings by Sensual Test: Softness, ease of combing, nonstickiness, and shine were evaluated based on the criteria shown in Table 2 below. Softness Ease of Combing Nonstickiness Shine o ○: Very soft Excellent Nonsticky Excellent ○: Soft Good Very slightly sticky Good ▵: Slightly stiff Slightly poor Slightly sticky Same as untreated hair X: Stiff Poor Sticky Decreased shine EXAMPLES 1 TO 3 AND COMPARATIVE EXAMPLES 1 TO 3 (Hair fixative) According to the formulations shown in Table 3, hair fixative compositions were formulated.
