Title: Solid Powder Cosmetic And Method For Producing The Same

Description:
RELATED APPLICATIONS 
     The present patent application claims priority of Japanese Patent Application No. 2009-099938 filed on Apr. 16, 2009, the disclosure of which has been incorporated herein by reference. 
     FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
     The present invention relates to a solid powder cosmetic and a method for producing the same, and more particularly, to an improvement of the long-lasting makeup effect in terms of makeup running and oily shining of solid powder cosmetic. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     Solid powder cosmetic, as represented by powdery foundation or the like, have been traditionally produced using an agitation mixer such as a Henschel mixer (registered trademark), a Nauta mixer (registered trademark), a ribbon blender, or a kneader, by mixing a powder component, an oily component as a binder, and the like, cracking the mixture with a pulverizing machine such as a pulverizer, and then filling the pulverized mixture in a middle-sized dish made of a metal or a resin, or further dry press molding the pulverized mixture. These conventional methods adopt the modes of dry mixing by which mixing of a powder component and a small amount of an oily component as a binder is carried out without adding a solvent, and of dry molding by which pressurized molding in a dry powder state. Thus, the conventional methods are called as dry production methods, and have been traditionally employed. 
     In recent years, various methods have been developed on mixing or molding for solid powder cosmetic, so that the characteristics such as feelings of use of the solid powder cosmetic can be improved. For example, there has been suggested a method for producing a solid powder cosmetic by carrying out wet mixing, by which a powder component and an oily component are added to a volatile solvent to form a slurry, subsequently filling the mixture in a vessel in the slurry state, and removing the solvent through vacuum suction or the like to solidify the powder (wet molding). This method is referred to as a wet production method. 
     Furthermore, investigations have also been extensively conducted on various apparatuses that are used at the time of wet mixing, by which a powder component and an oil component are mixed in a volatile solvent. For example, there have been suggested a production method of obtaining a pulverized solution by pulverizing a polymer powder in a volatile solvent using a medium agitating mill, subsequently mixing the pulverized solution and a powder such as a pigment in a wet mixing machine such as a disper to obtain a slurry, removing the volatile solvent from the slurry thus obtained to produce a dry powder, further cracking the dry powder with a pulverizing machine, and then performing dry molding to obtain a solid powder cosmetic in the solid state (Japanese patent unexamined publication (JP-A) No. H9-30926); and a method for producing a solid powder cosmetic by filling, in a vessel, the slurry obtained at the time of wet mixing using a medium agitating mill, subsequently carrying out wet molding by suction pressing, or removing the solvent from the slurry thus obtained to produce a dry powder, further cracking the dry powder with a pulverizing machine, and then performing dry molding (Japanese granted patent publication (JP-B) No. 3608778). 
     Along with the recent diversification and advances in consumers&#39; needs, there have been attempts for a further enhancement in terms of usage properties such as appliability with a puff, or a satisfactory feeling of use when the cosmetic is applied on the skin, as well as in terms of productivity or the work environment. As a result, a method for producing a solid powder cosmetic by highly dispersing a wet system using a bead mill, subsequently drying the dispersion product with a flash dryer, and converting the dispersion product into fine particles (W &amp; D production method), has been suggested (JP-A No. 2007-55990). 
     On the other hand, various techniques for providing a makeup cosmetic which suppresses makeup smudging and has an excellent long-lasting makeup effect, have been hitherto provided. For example, a method of absorbing sweat or sebum by incorporating a spherical porous resin powder into a makeup cosmetic (JP-A No. S55-172580) is known. However, running over time of a solid powder cosmetic such as foundation cannot be effectively prevented only by absorbing sweat or sebum. 
     Furthermore, techniques such as methods of adsorbing sebum components and making the long-lasting makeup effect satisfactory by incorporating activated zinc oxide and pyridoxine and/or pyridoxine derivatives into cosmetics, and by incorporating activated zinc oxide and a spherical powder of an organopolysiloxane elastomer into cosmetics (JP-A No. S62-56415 and JP-A No. H9-67223) are already known. However, although the above-described techniques can all make the long-lasting makeup effect satisfactory to a certain extent, activated zinc oxide is known to act only on fatty acids, which constitute a part of sebum components.

     The present invention was made in view of the related art described above, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a solid powder cosmetic having an excellent effect of preventing makeup running and oily shining, and having a satisfactory long-lasting makeup effect. 
     Means to Solve the Problem 
     In order to achieve the object described above, the inventors of the present invention paid attention to an amide mixture obtained by amidating a mixture of hexamethylenediamine and bisaminomethylcyclohexane with hydrogenated castor oil fatty acids, and conducted a thorough investigation.

     BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION 
     Hereinafter, suitable embodiments according to the present invention will be described. 
     Amide Mixture 
     The amide mixture used in the solid powder cosmetic of the present invention is a composition obtainable by performing an amidation reaction by a conventional method, using a mixture of hexamethylenediamine and bisaminomethylcyclohexane, and hydrogenated castor oil fatty acids. When the amide mixture is incorporated into the formulation, a solid powder cosmetic having an excellent effect of preventing makeup running and oily shining and having a satisfactory long-lasting makeup effect is obtained. 
     There are no particular limitations on the mixing ratio of hexamethylenediamine and bisaminomethylcyclohexane, but the mixing ratio is usually, as a molar ratio, in the range of 1:9 to 9:1. Furthermore, the amides constituting the amide mixture are compounds registered at the INCI (International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients), under the names of “HEXAMETHYLENE BIS-HYDROXYSTEARAMIDE (an amide obtained by amidating hexamethylenediamine with hydrogenated castor oil fatty acids)” and “DIMETHYLENECYCLOHEXANE BIS-HYDROXYSTEARAMIDE (an amide obtained by amidating bisaminomethylcyclohexane with hydrogenated castor oil fatty acids)” (here, the hydrogenated castor oil fatty acids include hydroxystearic acid at a proportion of about 90%). 
     The amount of incorporation of the amide mixture in the solid powder cosmetic of the present invention is suitably 1.0% to 15% by mass relative to the total mass of the cosmetic. If the amount of incorporation of the amide mixture is less than 1.0% by mass, the effect of improving the problems of makeup running and oily shining may not be sufficiently obtained. On the other hand, if the amount of incorporation is greater than 15% by mass, the resulting solid powder cosmetic tends to have deteriorated usage properties. More preferably, the amount of incorporation of the amide mixture is 2% to 10% by mass relative to the total amount of the cosmetic. 
     Powder Component 
     There are no particular limitations on the powder component used in the present invention as long as the powder component can be generally used in cosmetic and the like. Examples of the powder component include talc, kaolin, sericite, muscovite, phlogopite, synthetic mica, lepidolite, biotite, calcined talc, calcined sericite, calcined muscovite, calcined phlogopite, vermiculite, magnesium carbonate, calcium carbonate, aluminum silicate, barium silicate, calcium silicate, magnesium silicate, strontium silicate, tungstic acid metal salts, magnesium, silica, zeolite, barium sulfate, calcined calcium sulfate (calcined gypsum), calcium phosphate, fluorapatite, ceramic powder, metal soaps (for example, zinc myristate, calcium palmitate, and aluminum stearate), boron nitride, photochromic titanium oxide (titanium dioxide sintered with iron oxide), reduced zinc oxide; organic powders (for example, a silicone elastomer powder, a silicone powder, a silicone resin-coated silicone elastomer powder, a polyamide resin powder (nylon powder), a polyethylene powder, a polystyrene powder, a styrene-acrylic acid copolymer resin powder, a benzoguanamine resin powder, a polytetrafluoroethylene powder, and a cellulose powder); inorganic white pigments (for example, titanium dioxide, and zinc oxide); inorganic red pigments (for example, iron oxide (Bengala), and iron titanate); inorganic brown pigments (for example, γ-iron oxide); inorganic yellow pigments (for example, yellow iron oxide, and ocher); inorganic black pigments (for example, black iron oxide, and lower-order titanium oxide); inorganic violet pigments (for example, mango violet and cobalt violet); inorganic green pigments (for example, chromium oxide, chromium hydroxide, and cobalt titanate); inorganic blue pigments (for example, ultramarine blue and Prussian blue); pearl pigments (for example, bismuth oxychloride, argentine, titanated mica, iron oxide-coated titanated mica, lower-order titanium oxide-coated titanated mica, photochromic titanated mica; pigments which use talc, glass, synthetic fluorphlogopite, silica, bismuth oxychloride and the like instead of mica as substrate; pigments coated with lower-order titanium oxide, colored titanium oxide, iron oxide, alumina, silica, zirconia, zinc oxide, cobalt oxide, aluminum or the like, instead of titanium oxide as the coating; pearl pigments coated on the surfaces with resin particles as functional pearl pigments (Japanese Unexamined Patent Application No. H11-92688); pearl pigments coated on the surfaces with aluminum hydroxide particles (Japanese Unexamined Patent Application No. 2002-146238); pearl pigments coated on the surfaces with zinc oxide particles (Japanese Unexamined Patent Application No. 2003-261421); pearl pigments coated on the surfaces with barium sulfate particles (Japanese Unexamined Patent Application No. 2003-61229); metal powder pigments (for example, aluminum powder, and copper powder); organic pigments such as zirconium, barium or aluminum lakes (for example, 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; Red No. 3, Red No. 104, Red No. 106, Red No. 227, Red No. 230, 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 coloring materials (for example, chlorophyll and β-carotene). 
     Spherical poly(meth)acrylate Particles 
     It is preferable that the solid powder cosmetic of the present invention contain spherical poly(meth)acrylate particles as the powder component in an amount of 1% to 20% by mass relative to the total amount of the cosmetic. When spherical poly(meth)acrylate particles are incorporated, the occurrence of oily shining over time can be further reduced. Furthermore, the amount of incorporation of the spherical poly(meth)acrylate particles is more preferably 1% to 10% by mass. 
     As the spherical poly(meth)acrylate particles, it is preferable to use porous spherical poly(meth)acrylate particles which have pores in the interior and at the surfaces, and have an average particle size of 3 to 20 μm, a specific surface area of 80 to 180 m 2 /g, and a most frequent pore diameter of 180 Å or larger. 
     The spherical poly(meth)acrylate particles used in the present invention are composed of, for example, spherical polymer particles having plural pores in the interior and at the surfaces, and are obtained by radical polymerizing a monomer mixture containing one or more selected from (meth)acrylate ester-based monomers, in the presence of a polymerization initiator and a porosifying agent. The particles can be produced by general methods for spherical polymer synthesis, such as suspension polymerization, emulsion polymerization, and soap-free polymerization. However, according to the present invention, it is particularly preferable to produce the particles by the suspension polymerization method that will be described below. 
     The spherical poly(meth)acrylate particles used in the present invention can be produced according to a known suspension polymerization method, using a monomer phase mixture containing at least one monomer selected from acrylate ester-based monomers and methacrylate ester-based monomers (hereinafter, collectively referred to as “(meth)acrylate ester-based monomers”), and water. 
     The monomer phase mixture contains a (meth)acrylate-based monomer which is polymerized while water is dispersed among the monomer molecules and turns into polymer particles having plural pores in the interior and at the surfaces, a polymerization initiator which accelerates polymerization of the (meth)acrylate-based monomer, and a comb-like polymer which disperses the water among the (meth)acrylate ester-based monomer molecules. 
     Examples of the (meth)acrylate ester-based monomer include α-methylene aliphatic monocarboxylic acid esters such as methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, n-butyl acrylate, isobutyl acrylate, propyl acrylate, n-octyl acrylate, dodecyl acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, stearyl acrylate, 2-chloroethyl acrylate, phenyl acrylate, methyl α-chloroacrylate, methyl methacrylate, ethyl methacrylate, n-butyl methacrylate, isobutyl methacrylate, propyl methacrylate, n-octyl methacrylate, dodecyl methacrylate, 2-ethylhexyl methacrylate, stearyl methacrylate, 2-chloroethyl methacrylate, phenyl methacrylate, dimethylaminoethyl acrylate, dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate, diethylaminoethyl acrylate, and diethylaminoethyl methacrylate; (meth)acrylate derivatives such as acrylonitrile, methacrylonitrile, acrylamide, methacrylamide, 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl acrylate, 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, and 2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate; acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, and fumaric acid. These (meth)acrylate ester-based monomers can be used singly or as mixtures of two or more kinds. According to the present invention, it is particularly preferable to use methyl methacrylate as a monomer to obtain spherical polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). 
     Furthermore, as the polymerization initiator that accelerates polymerization of the (meth)acrylate ester-based monomer, a polymerization initiator that is generally used for suspension polymerization of a (meth)acrylate ester-based monomer can be used. Examples of the polymerization initiator include peroxide-based polymerization initiators such as benzoyl peroxide, lauroyl peroxide, octanoyl peroxide, benzoyl ortho-chloroperoxide, benzoyl ortho-methoxyperoxide, methyl ethyl ketone peroxide, diisopropyl peroxydicarbonate, cumene hydroperoxide, cyclohexanone peroxide, t-butyl hydroperoxide, and diisopropylbenzene hydroperoxide; 2,2′-azobisisobutyronitrile, 2,2′-azobis(2,4-dimethylvaleronitrile), 2,2′-azobis(2-methylbutyronitrile), 2,2′-azobis(2,3,3-trimethylbutyronitrile)-2,2′-azobis(2-isopropylbutyronitrile), 1,1′-azobis(cyclohexane-1-carbonitrile), 2,2′-azobis(4-methoxy-2,4-dimethylvaleronitrile), 2-(carbamoylazo)isobutyronitrile, 4,4′-azobis(4-cyanovaleric acid), and dimethyl 2,2′-azobisisobutyrate. These polymerization initiators can be used singly or as mixtures of two or more kinds. 
     Benzoyl peroxide, lauroyl peroxide, 2,2′-azobisisobutyronitrile, and 2,2′-azobis(2,4-dimethylvaleronitrile) are suitable from the viewpoint that these compounds are easily dissolved in the monomer, and handling thereof is easy. 
     The amount of incorporation of the polymerization initiator varies depending on the monomer used, but is usually 0.01 to 1.00 parts by mass relative to 100 parts by mass of the monomer. 
     The comb-like polymer has many trifurcation points with linear side chains in the main chain, and usually has a weight average molecule of 2,000 to 100,000. 
     There are no particular limitations on the comb-like polymer as long as the polymer has a hydrophilic portion and a hydrophobic portion in the molecule. However, from the viewpoint that the water dispersed among the monomer molecules can be easily stabilized in a particulate form, a comb-like polymer in which plural side chains constituting the hydrophobic portion are graft-bonded to the main chain having the hydrophilic portion is suitable. Examples of the comb-like polymer that can be used include a poly(ethyleneimine) which has one or more poly(carbonyl-C3-C6 alkyleneoxy) chains, while each chain has three to eighty carbonyl-C3-C6 alkyleneoxy groups and is bonded to poly(ethyleneimine) through an amide or salt-crosslinking group; an acid salt of such a polyethyleneimine; and a reaction product between a poly(lower alkylene)imine and a polyester having a free carboxylic acid group, in which at least two or more polyester chains are bonded to each poly(lower alkylene)imine chain. As such a comb-like polymer, for example, the “SOLSPERSE” series that are commercially available from Lubrizol Corp. in the United Kingdom, can be used. 
     The comb-like polymer material preferably has an acid value of 20 to 80. If the acid value is less than 20, the polymer particles may not all have plural pores formed in the interiors and at the surfaces of the polymer particles, and if the acid value is greater than 80, polymerization becomes unstable, and the polymer may not be obtained as a particulate material. The acid value can be measured as the number of milligrams of KOH required to neutralize free carboxylic acids contained in 1 g of the comb-like polymer, according to JIS K0070. 
     The amount of incorporation of the comb-like polymer material is suitably 0.01 to 3.00 parts by mass relative to 100 parts by mass of the monomer. If the amount of incorporation is less than 0.01 parts by mass, the polymer particles may not have plural pores formed in the interior and at the surfaces. On the other hand, if the comb-like polymer is incorporated in an amount of even greater than 3 parts by mass, a pore forming effect (ease of forming pores) corresponding to the amount of incorporation may not be obtained, while there is a risk that the comb-like polymer material may decrease the purity of the polymer and impair the properties of the polymer. 
     Furthermore, in addition to the components described above, a crosslinking agent for the monomer, another monomer or oligomer, and the like can be added to the monomer phase mixture, to the extent that the effect of the invention is not impaired. 
     Such a crosslinking agent may be a compound having two or more polymerizable double bonds, and examples include aromatic divinyl compounds such as divinylbenzene, divinylnaphthalene, and derivatives thereof; diethylenic carboxylic acid esters such as ethylene glycol dimethacrylate, triethylene glycol triacrylate, and trimethylolpropane triacrylate; and compounds having three or more divinyl compounds and vinyl groups, such as N,N-divinylaniline, divinyl ether, and divinyl sulfite. These compounds can be used singly or as mixtures of two or more kinds. 
     Furthermore, examples of the other monomer or oligomer that can be used include styrene and derivatives thereof, and vinyl esters such as vinyl butyrate. 
     The water for dispersing the monomer phase mixture can contain a dispersion stabilizer or a surfactant for aqueous media. 
     As the dispersion stabilizer, a dispersion stabilizer that is generally used in suspension polymerization of polymers can be used, and examples that can be used include water-soluble polymers such as methyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, and polyvinyl alcohol; and sparingly water-soluble inorganic salts such as tribasic calcium phosphate, magnesium hydroxide, magnesium pyrophosphate, barium sulfate, calcium carbonate, and silica. Particularly, from the viewpoints that the dispersion stabilizer can be easily removed from the polymer after polymerization, and that polymer particles can be polymerized with a narrow particle size distribution, a sparingly water-soluble inorganic salt having a solubility in water at normal temperature of about 3 mg or less is preferable, and tribasic calcium phosphate having a solubility of 2.5 mg is suitable. 
     The dispersion stabilizer is usually incorporated into water at a proportion of 0.1 to 20.0 parts by mass relative to 100 parts by mass of the polymer particles that are obtained. 
     As the surfactant for aqueous media, a surfactant for aqueous media that is generally used in suspension polymerization of polymers can be used. From the viewpoint that polymer particles can be polymerized with a narrow particle size distribution, anionic surfactants such as sodium dodecyl sulfate, sodium dodecyl benzenesulfonate, sodium polyoxyethylene lauryl ether sulfate, and sodium diethylsulfosuccinate are particularly preferred. Usually, such a surfactant for aqueous media is incorporated at a concentration of 0.005% to 0.3% by mass based on water. 
     Next, a specific method for producing spherical poly(meth)acrylate particles will be described. 
     The monomer phase mixture and water are respectively adjusted to predetermined amounts of incorporation in separate vessels and are mixed. That is, on one side, a (meth)acrylate-based monomer, a comb-like polymer, a polymerization initiator, a crosslinking agent, another monomer, an oligomer and the like are mixed and agitated at predetermined proportions as a monomer phase mixture. As a mixing and agitating unit that may be used at this time, a general mixer or a homogenizer can be used, but it is preferable to employ a mixing and agitating unit that would make the system thoroughly uniform. Furthermore, when there is a risk that the temperature of the monomer phase mixture may increase as a result of mixing and agitation, and polymerization of the (meth)acrylate ester-based monomer may be initiated, it is preferable to mix and agitate the system while suppressing the temperature increase using a cooling unit or the like. 
     On the other side, as a material for aqueous phase, a dispersion stabilizer and a surfactant for aqueous media are added to water at predetermined proportions, and the mixture is mixed and agitated. In this case as well, a general mixer or a homogenizer can be used as a mixing and agitating unit to be used, and it is preferable to employ a mixing and agitating unit that would make the system thoroughly uniform. 
     Thereafter, the monomer phase mixture is poured into the water that has been prepared as described above, and the resulting mixture is mixed and agitated with a homogenizer or the like, to obtain a suspension liquid (aqueous phase/monomer phase/aqueous phase emulsion). At this time, the particle size of the monomer phase, that is, the particle size of the polymer particles having plural pores in the interior and at the surfaces, can be easily adjusted by varying the conditions for agitation such as the duration of agitation and the speed of rotation while using a homogenizer as an agitating unit. 
     During the production of the spherical poly(meth)acrylate particles used in the present invention, it is preferable to adjust the particle size such that the average particle size reaches 3 to 20 μm. If the average particle size is less than 3 μm, when the spherical poly(meth)acrylate particles are incorporated into a cosmetic, sufficient sebum absorbing properties are not exhibited, and an excellent long-lasting makeup effect cannot be obtained. If the average particle size is larger than 20 μm, the feeling of use of the cosmetic to which the spherical poly(meth)acrylate particles are incorporated, tends to be deteriorated. 
     The suspension liquid is introduced into a heating apparatus such as an autoclave, and the suspension liquid is heated, while agitated, to thereby carry out polymerization of the monomer phase. The polymerization product thus obtained is filtered, and the filter cake is washed with water and then dried. Thus, spherical poly(meth)acrylate particles having plural pores in the interior and at the surfaces can be obtained. 
     Furthermore, if necessary, a process of removing the dispersion stabilizer before the washing can also be carried out. 
     In the spherical poly(meth)acrylate particles that may be obtained as described above, pores generated using, as a template, a comb-like polymer that is finely dispersed in the monomer phase by mixing, are formed numerously in the interiors and at the surfaces of the particles. 
     In the production of the spherical poly(meth)acrylate particles used in the present invention, a known material which is known as a porogen can be used, in addition to the comb-like polymer described above, as the material that forms plural pores (porosification) in the interiors and at the surfaces of the polymer particles. Examples of the porogen include toluene, isooctane, methyl isobutyl ketone, calcium carbonate, tricalcium phosphate, and various linear polymers. These compounds can be used singly or in combination of two or more kinds. Definitely, the method for producing spherical poly(meth)acrylate particles can be appropriately modified in accordance with the porosifying material used, regardless of the method described above. 
     Furthermore, the pore diameter or shape of the pores in the interiors and at the surfaces of the spherical poly(meth)acrylate particles, and the specific surface area of the particles can be regulated by known techniques in accordance with the type of the porosifying material. That is, the pore diameter of the pores and the specific surface area of the spherical poly(meth)acrylate particles can be regulated by appropriately selecting the method for application of the porosifying material to the polymer particle synthesis process (including the conditions for agitation), the amount of application or the like, in accordance with the characteristics of the material used. 
     According to the present invention, particularly, spherical poly(meth)acrylate particles formed so as to have a specific surface area of the particles of 80 to 180 m 2 /g are suitably used. 
     If the specific surface area is smaller than 80 m 2 /g, the effect of sebum absorption by the pores is not sufficiently obtained, and an excellent long-lasting makeup effect may not be obtained. Furthermore, if the specific surface area is larger than 180 m 2 /m, the pores are so densely present that the sebum absorption capacity of the polymer particles themselves may be decreased, and also, the usage properties may be deteriorated. 
     For the spherical poly(meth)acrylate particles used in the present invention, the most frequent pore diameter of the pores in the interiors and at the surfaces of the particles is preferably 180 Å or larger. When the most frequent pore diameter is 180 Å or larger, the oil absorption (oleic acid, which is a sebum component) of the particles reaches 100 to 300 ml/100 g, and makeup smudging due to sebum can be prevented to a large extent. If the most frequent pore diameter is smaller than 180 Å, since the pores are small, the oil absorption efficiency and the oil absorption are decreased, and a sufficient long-lasting makeup effect may not be obtained. 
     The most frequent pore diameter described above has no particular upper limit. However, if the strength of the particles, the feeling of use when the particles are incorporated into a cosmetic, and the like are to be considered, the most frequent pore diameter is preferably adjusted to about 180 to 400 Å. 
     According to the present invention, commercially available powders may also be used as the spherical poly(meth)acrylate particles having pores in the interior and at the surfaces, as long as the powders have the particle size and the specific surface area described above.

     In regard to the powder component used in the present invention, a powder component that is not surface-treated may be used, or a powder component that has been surface-treated with a silicone, a fluorine compound, a fatty acid soap or the like may also be used. However, it is particularly preferable to incorporate a powder component that has been surface-treated with a fluorine compound. 
     When a fluorine compound-treated powder is incorporated into the solid powder cosmetic, water repellency and oil repellency are imparted to the solid powder cosmetic, and the solid powder cosmetic does not easily dissolve in sweat or sebum. 
     Examples of the fluorine compound that is used to treat the powder surface include perfluoroalkyl phosphoric acid ester-diethanolamine salts, perfluoroalkylsilanes, perfluoroalkyl ethyl acrylates; and compounds having perfluoropolyether groups, such as perfluoropolyether dialkyl phosphoric acid and salts thereof, perfluoropolyether dialkyl sulfate and salts thereof, perfluoropolyether dialkyl carboxylic acid and salts thereof. Particularly, fluorine compounds having any one perfluoroalkyl group selected from CF 2 —, CF 3 —, CF 3 CF 2 —, and CF 2 CF 2 — in the molecule are suitable. 
     As the fluorine compound, 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorooctyltriethoxysilane represented by the following formula (I) can be particularly suitably used. 
       CF 3 CF 2 CF 2 CF 2 CF 2 CF 2 CH 2 CH 2 Si(OEt) 3    (I)
 
     Furthermore, specific examples of other fluorine compounds include fluorine compounds represented by the following formulas (II) to (IV). 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     wherein in the formula (II), n represents an integer from 3 to 25. 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     wherein in the formula (III), m and n each represent an integer from 5 to 20. 
       X—CF 2 O—(CF 2 CF 2 O) p —(CF 2 O) q —CF 2 —X   (IV)
 
     wherein in the formula (IV), X represents any one of CH 2 OH, CO—NH—C 18 H 37 , and CH 2 C—(OCH 2 CH 2 )p-OPO(OH) 2 ; and the p/q ratio represents an integer from 0.5 to 3.0. 
     Furthermore, a surface treatment of the powder component may be carried out by using the fluorine compound and another hydrophobization treating agent in combination. Specific examples of other treating agents include an acrylic silicone compound represented by the following formula (V). 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     wherein n represents an integer; a, b, c and d represent the respective molar ratios in the copolymer, and are not necessarily zero; and d is from 40% by mole to 60% by mole. 
     The surface treatment of the powder component with a fluorine compound can be carried out according to a conventional method. 
     For example, a surface-treated powder can be produced by bringing the fluorine compound of the formula (I) (and the acrylic silicone compound of the formula (V)), which is in the form of a solution having the fluorine compound dissolved in an appropriate solvent or in the form of the liquid of the fluorine compound itself, into contact with the powder, and then heating the resultant at 100° C. to 150° C., and preferably 120° C. to 140° C., for 1 to 12 hours, and preferably 3 to 9 hours. 
     For the heating atmosphere, the heating may be carried out in air, which is a moisture-containing atmosphere, or in another gas containing moisture at least to the extent that is contained in air. In addition to these, the heating may also be carried out by a method of producing the surface-treated powder in an atmosphere that does not contain moisture, and then heating the surface-treated powder while adding moisture during the treatment (during heating); or by a method of adding a solution containing one or more metal salts of aluminum (III), tin (II), tin (IV), iron (III) or titanium (III) in a small amount of water, simultaneously with or previously to the surface treating agent (the fluorine compound of formula (I) (and the acrylic silicone compound of formula (V)). Specific examples of the metal salts include aluminum chloride, stannic chloride, and ferric chloride (including hydrates thereof). 
     When the fluorine compound of the formula (I) (and the acrylic silicone compound of the formula (V)) is brought into contact with the powder in the form of a solution in which the fluorine compound is dissolved in an appropriate solvent, for example, a solution containing 0.3% to 50% by mass of the fluorine compound in a solvent such as an alcohol, water, hexane, cyclohexane or toluene is prepared. The powder is dispersed in the solution, and then the dispersion is heated. Thereby, the solvent is evaporated, and at the same time, the fluorine compound of the formula (I) (and the acrylic silicone compound of the formula (V)) is polymerized on the surfaces of the powder. Thus, a treated powder is obtained. This process can be carried out using a Henschel mixer, a Lodige mixer, a kneader, a medium agitating mill (bead mill or the like), or the like. As the apparatus used in the heating, an electric furnace, a tunnel furnace, a roller hearth kiln, a rotary kiln, or the like can be used. 
     When the fluorine compound of the formula (I) (and the acrylic silicone compound of the formula (V)) is directly brought into contact with the powder without dissolving the compound in a solvent, the fluorine compound is brought into contact with the powder using an appropriate mixing machine such as, for example, a rotary ball mill, a vibratory ball mill, a planetary ball mill, a sand mill, an attriter, a pug mill, a pony mixer, a planetary mixer, a Raikai mixer, a Henschel mixer, or the like. Thus, a treated powder is obtained. 
     In the solid powder cosmetic of the present invention, the amount of incorporation of the fluorine compound-treated powder is preferably 5% to 97% by mass, and more preferably 20% to 75% by mass, relative to the total amount of the powder cosmetic. If the amount of incorporation of the fluorine compound-treated powder is less than 5% by mass, the effect of incorporating the fluorine compound-treated powder may not be sufficiently obtained. If the amount of incorporation is greater than 97% by mass, the feeling of use may be deteriorated. 
     The solid powder cosmetic of the present invention may be produced by mixing a fluorine compound-treated powder that has been treated in advance with an oily component together with other powder components. Alternatively, an untreated powder component may be mixed with an oily component together with the fluorine compound, so that the surfaces of the powder component may be treated with the fluorine compound at the time of mixing. These can be appropriately selected according to the types of the various components or the production process; however, usually, in the case of a method of mixing a powder component and an oily component in a dry system (dry production method), the former method is adequate, and in the case of a method of dispersing a powder component and an oily component to obtain a slurry in a wet system, and then drying the slurry (wet production method), the latter method is adequate. In the production process, when the powder component is surface-treated by adding a fluorine compound to a mixture, the amount of addition of the fluorine compound is preferably 0.1% to 10% by mass, and more preferably 0.5% to 5% by mass, relative to the total amount of the cosmetic.

     There are no particular limitations on the use of the solid powder cosmetic according to the present invention as a product, but the solid powder cosmetic is applicable to solid powder cosmetic in the solid form, such as foundation, eye shadow, cheek color, body powder, perfume powder, baby powder, pressed powder, deodorant powder, and loose powder. 
     Method for Producing Solid Powder Cosmetic 
     The solid powder cosmetic of the present invention can be produced by mixing various constituent components including the amide mixture described above, a powder component and an oily component, by a routine method. For example, the solid powder cosmetic can be produced according to any of a method of mixing the constituent components under dry conditions (dry production method), and a method of dispersing the constituent components in a wet system to obtain a slurry, and then drying the slurry to produce the solid powder cosmetic (wet production method). 
     Dry Production Method 
     When the solid powder cosmetic of the present invention is produced by a dry production method, it is particularly preferable to use a facing rotor type mixing apparatus having a particular structure that will be described below, and to mix the amide mixture described above, a powder component and an oily component. When the facing rotor type mixing apparatus is used, the powder component can be uniformly coated on the surfaces with the oily component without causing aggregation of the powder component. The solid powder cosmetic thus obtainable is excellent in various usage properties such as the feeling of particulate fineness, the moist feeling, smoothness, meatiness, and uniform finish, and also has markedly improved impact resistance. 
     Here, the facing rotor type mixing apparatus used in the present invention is a mixing apparatus which has a first rotor provided with plural blades and a second rotor provided with plural blades, disposed in a mixing chamber such that the first rotor and the second rotor face each other and respectively have an individual rotating shaft on the same axis line in an approximately horizontal direction, and which mixes raw materials by rotating the first rotor and the second rotor in the same or opposite direction to each other, while supplying the raw materials through a feed port on the first rotor side, and discharges the mixed raw materials through a discharge port on the second rotor side. 
     When the amide mixture, the powder component and the oily component are mixed using such a facing rotor type mixing apparatus as described above, the powder particles can be uniformly coated on the surfaces with the oily component without causing aggregation of the powder component. Furthermore, since the facing rotor type mixing apparatus used in the present invention is a dry type mixing apparatus, it is not necessary to use the amide mixture, the powder component and the oily component after dissolving them in an appropriate solvent for mixing. Also, the production process is simple and easy as compared with the case of wet mixing, and the facing rotor type mixing apparatus is less problematic in terms of safety or environment. 
     In addition, the facing rotor type mixing apparatus used in the present invention has been traditionally used as an apparatus for pulverization, and is known to those having ordinary skill in the art as a pulverizing apparatus. For example, the pulverizing apparatuses described in Japanese Unexamined Patent Application No. 2002-79183, Japanese Unexamined Patent Application No. 2003-1127, Japanese Unexamined Patent Application No. 2003-10712, Japanese Unexamined Patent Application No. 2003-71307 and the like can be used as the mixing apparatus of the present invention. Examples of commercially available apparatuses include a cyclone mill (manufactured by Flo-Tec, Ltd.). 
     A schematic diagram of one example of the facing rotor type mixing apparatus used in the present invention is presented in  FIG. 1 . However, the facing rotor type mixing apparatus used in the present invention is not limited to this. 
     In the facing rotor type mixing apparatus  10 , a first rotor  14  and a second rotor  15 , which are respectively driven to rotate by motors  12  and  13 , are provided inside a mixing chamber  11 , in which the first rotor and the second rotor face each other on the same axis line in the horizontal direction. The first rotor  14  and the second rotor  15  are installed to be in communication with a feed port  16  for the raw materials on the first rotor  14  side in the mixing chamber  11 , and is in communication with a discharge port  17  on the second rotor  15  side in the mixing chamber  11 . Furthermore, a raw material supplying device  20  is provided in the upper part of the feed port  16  of the facing rotor type mixing apparatus  10 , and a capturing device  30  (and a collecting container  32 ) and a suction device  40  are connected to the end of the discharge port  17 . 
     In the facing rotor type mixing apparatus  10 , the first rotor  14  and the second rotor  15  that are disposed to face each other on the same axis line in the horizontal direction, rotate integrally with the rotating axes of the motors  12  and  13 , respectively. In the facing rotor type mixing apparatus  10 , while the first rotor  14  and the second rotor  15  are rotated by the motors  12  and  13  at high speed in the same or in the opposite direction to each other, a raw material mixture to be treated is introduced by the raw material supplying device  20  through the raw material feed port  16 . The raw material mixture introduced to the facing rotor type mixing apparatus  10  vigorously collides with the first rotor  14 , the second rotor  15 , or the inner wall surfaces of the mixing chamber  11 , and also, particles of the raw material components collide with each other, so that the raw material components are uniformly mixed and dispersed. As a result, there is obtained a mixture in which the powder particles are uniformly coated on the surfaces with the oily component, without causing aggregation of the powder component. 
     Furthermore, the first rotor  14  and the second rotor  15  that are facing each other, rotate in the same or opposite direction to each other. Here, in the production method of the present invention, it is suitable to use the first rotor and the second rotor to rotate in the opposite direction. When the rotors are rotated in the opposite direction to each other, a larger shear stress can be generated as compared with the case of rotating the rotors in the same direction. Therefore, a uniform mixture in which aggregation of the powder component does not easily occur, is likely to be obtained. Furthermore, the speed of rotation of the first rotor  14  and the second rotor  15  can be appropriately adjusted to be between, for example, 1000 rpm and 10,000 rpm, and preferably between 3000 rpm and 8000 rpm. 
     In the first rotor  14  and the second rotor  15 , plural blades are provided in a radial direction around the boss provided along the respective rotating shafts of the motors  12  and  13 . Usually, the number of blades in one rotor is about 2 to 16 sheets. In the first rotor  14  and the second rotor  15 , the shape of the rotor, the number of blades, and the like may be identical with or different from each other. 
     The subject mixture mixed inside the mixing chamber  11 , is discharged through the discharge port  17 . Furthermore, the capturing device  30  and the suction device  40  are connected to the end of the discharge port  17 . When the suction device  40  is operated, the subject mixture is continuously discharged through the discharge port  17 , and the subject mixture thus discharged is captured by the capturing device  30  and is collected inside the collecting container  32 . The operating conditions for the suction device  40  can be appropriately adjusted through the type or amount of the subject mixture, the speed of rotation of the rotor, and the like. When the raw material mixture is continuously introduced by the raw material supplying device  20  while the suction device  40  and the capturing device  30  are operated, the mixture can be continuously produced. 
     The amide mixture, the powder component, and the oily component may be introduced to the facing rotor type mixing apparatus  10  separately or simultaneously. However, in typical cases, it is preferable to carry out preliminary mixing using a simple agitating apparatus such as a Henschel mixer or a Nauta mixer. When the powder component and the oily component are introduced to the facing rotor type mixing apparatus  10  without performing preliminary mixing, there are difficulties in the control of the mixing process, such as that only the light powder component is first discharged without being sufficiently mixed with the oily component. 
     Furthermore, when the solid powder cosmetic of the present invention is produced by a dry mixing method, usually, a dry mixture of the amide mixture obtained as described above, the powder component and the oily component obtained as described above is filled in, for example, a middle-sized dish container made of a metal or a resin, and is solidified by dry molding. As the method for solidification, conventionally known dry press molding or the like can be used. 
     Wet Production Method 
     Furthermore, when the solid powder cosmetic of the present invention is produced by a wet production method, the solid powder cosmetic can be produced according to a method of, for example, highly dispersing the raw materials in a wet system using a bead mill, subsequently drying the dispersion product with a flash dryer, and converting the dispersion product into fine particles (W &amp; D production method). 
       FIG. 2  is a diagram showing an example of the apparatus configuration used in the production method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The method for producing a solid powder cosmetic according to the embodiment of the present invention includes, for example, a slurry preparation step of mixing a powder component, an oily component as a binder, and the above-described amide mixture in a volatile solvent to obtain a slurry; and a drying step of drying the slurry to obtain a dry powder. 
     First, in the slurry preparation step, a powder component, an oily component, and the above-described amide mixture are mixed in a volatile solvent using a medium agitating mill  110  shown in  FIG. 2 , and the powder component is cracked/pulverized/dispersed to obtain a slurry. The slurry thus obtained is first collected in a storage tank  112 , and is supplied to a drying apparatus  114  at a predetermined flow rate. 
     The drying apparatus  114  used in the present embodiment converts the slurry into fine liquid droplets using a mechanical shear force, that is, a shear force generated by the rotation of shearing members (plate-shaped members  134   a,    134   b,  and  134   c ) provided in a shearing unit  118 , and blows a dry gas to the fine liquid droplets to perform drying of the slurry. There are no particular limitations on the shape of the shearing members as long as the shape is adequate for the purpose of the present invention. The shape of the shearing members may be any shape, for example, a blade shape or a disc shape, in addition to the plate shape such as described above. 
     As such, in the present embodiment, since a dry powder is produced using a drying apparatus  114  which performs drying while the slurry is in the form of fine liquid droplets, a dry powder in which aggregation of the powder component almost does not occur at the time of drying, can be obtained. For that reason, it is possible to provide a solid powder cosmetic which has an excellent feeling of use when applied on the skin. Also, since it is not necessary to carry out cracking again after drying, the method is excellent in terms of productivity and the work environment. 
     Furthermore, it is also suitable to further include a step of filling the dry powder thus obtained in a container, and solidifying the dry powder by dry press molding. The solid powder cosmetic thus obtained is excellent not only in the feeling of use, but also in the usage properties such as appliability with a puff. 
     As shown in  FIG. 2 , it is suitable to use a medium agitating mill  110  in the slurry preparation step, in order to mix the powder component and the oily component as a binder in a volatile solvent. When a medium agitating mill is used, a slurry in which the surfaces of the powder component is cleanly coated with the oily component can be obtained, and when this slurry is used, a solid powder cosmetic having a superior feeling of use and superior usage properties can be obtained. 
     &lt;Slurry Preparation Step&gt; 
     As the method of mixing a powder component and an oily component in a volatile solvent to obtain a slurry, methods such as described below may be used. 
     (A) A method of adding a product which has been prepared by dry mixing/cracking a powder and an oil component in advance with a Henschel mixer (registered trademark), a pulverizer or the like, into a volatile solvent, and mixing/dispersing the components using a disper-mixer, a homogenizer, a planetary mixer, a twin-screw kneading machine or the like. 
     (B) A method of adding a powder and an oil component into a volatile solvent, preliminarily mixing the components with a disper-mixer or the like as necessary, and then subjecting the mixture to cracking/pulverization/dispersion treatments using a medium agitating mill. 
     (C) A method of adding a certain specific powder component having strong cohesiveness, such as an elastic polymer powder or a fine particle powder, into a volatile solvent, preliminarily mixing this powder component with the solvent with a disper-mixer as necessary, subsequently cracking/pulverizing/dispersing the mixture using a medium agitating mill to obtain a dispersion liquid, adding another powder component and an oil component to the dispersion liquid, and further treating the mixture using a wet mixing machine or a medium agitating mill. 
     In addition, it is suitable to use a medium agitating mill in the slurry preparation step (for example, the above-described methods (B) and (C)). A medium agitating mill is a device which accommodates a dispersion liquid formed from a powder component (and an oily component) and a solvent in a vessel containing a solid dispersing medium (medium) such as beads, and agitating the liquid in the vessel to perform cracking/pulverization/dispersion of the powder component by means of an impact force, a frictional force or the like exerted by the medium. 
       FIG. 3  and  FIG. 4  are schematic configuration diagrams showing examples of the medium agitating mill that is suitably used in the present invention. The medium agitating mill that can be suitably used in the present invention is not particularly limited to the following examples, and any medium agitating mill that can achieve the purpose of the present invention may be used. 
     The medium agitating mill  210  of the example shown in  FIG. 3  includes an approximately cylindrical-shaped vessel  212 , a drive shaft  214  inserted across the vessel  212 , a drive motor  216  which rotationally drives the drive shaft  214 , and plural sheets of agitating discs  218   a  to  218   f  that are fitted to the drive shaft  214 . The inside of the vessel  212  is divided into a dispersing chamber  220  which performs cracking/pulverization/dispersion of the powder component, and a discharge chamber  222  which discharges the treated dispersion liquid. The dispersing chamber  220  of the vessel  212  is provided with a supply port  224  for supplying a dispersion liquid to be treated, and the discharge chamber  222  is provided with a discharge port  226  for removing the treated dispersion liquid. A partition wall  230  provided with an opening  228  is provided between the dispersing chamber  220  and the discharge chamber  222 , and near this partition wall  230 , a separating disc  232  fitted to the drive shaft  214  is disposed to cover the opening  228  of the partition wall  230 . A gap is provided between the partition wall  230  and the separating disc  232 , and this gap is used as a separating slit  234  which separates the solid dispersing medium from the dispersion liquid to be treated. 
     The dispersion liquid containing a powder component and a solvent is successively supplied through the supply port  224  to the dispersing chamber  220  inside the vessel  212 , and the dispersion liquid in the dispersing chamber  220  moves successively in the direction of the discharge chamber  222 . At this time, the drive shaft  214  is rotationally driven by the drive motor  216 , and the agitating discs  218   a  to  218   f  are rotating. The dispersing chamber  220  is filled with a large number of solid dispersing media  236 , and the solid dispersing media  236  are agitated together with the dispersion liquid by the rotation of the agitating discs  218   a  to  218   f.  The aggregated powder component in the dispersion liquid is cracked/pulverized/dispersed by the impact force, shear stress or the like exerted by the solid dispersing media  236 . 
     The dispersion liquid that has been subjected to cracking/pulverization/dispersion as described above, passes through the separating slit  234  that is located between the partition wall  230  between the dispersing chamber  220  and the discharge chamber  222 , and the separating disc  232 , flows into the discharge chamber  222  and is discharged to the outside through the discharge port  226 . The separating slit  234  has a size that will prevent the solid dispersing media  236  from escaping from the dispersing chamber  220  to the discharge chamber  222 . Accordingly, when the dispersion liquid passes through the separating slit  234 , the separating slit separates the dispersion liquid (powder component+solvent) from the solid dispersing media  236 , so that only the dispersion liquid enters the discharge chamber. 
       FIG. 4  is a schematic configuration diagram of an annular type medium agitating mill. The medium agitating mill  310  of  FIG. 4  includes a vessel  312  which has an approximately W-shaped cross-section that is symmetric about the central axis A, a rotor  314  which is provided on the vessel  312 , has an approximately inverse U-shape and is capable of rotating around the central axis A, and a drive motor  316  that rotationally drives the rotor  314 . A circular space  318  is formed between the inner surface of the vessel  316  and the outer surface of the rotor  314 , and this circular space  318  has a shape having an approximately V-shaped cross-section which lies on both sides of the central axis A. Furthermore, a supply port  320  for sending the dispersion liquid (powder component+solvent) to be treated to the circular space  318 , and a discharge port  322  for removing the dispersion liquid to be treated from the circular space  318 , are formed in the vessel  312 . The circular space  318  is filled with solid dispersing media  324 , so that the circular space  218  is used as a dispersing chamber that performs cracking/pulverization/dispersion of the powder component in the dispersion liquid. 
     The dispersion liquid supplied from the supply port  320  is transported to the circular space  318  via an inlet slit  326 . The dispersion liquid thus transported moves inside the circular space  318  and is discharged through the discharge port  322  via an outlet slit  328 . At this time, the dispersion liquid and the solid dispersing media  324  inside the circular space  318  are agitated by rotating the rotor  314  about the central axis A within the circular space  318 . Then, the aggregated powder component in the dispersion liquid is cracked/pulverized/dispersed by the impact force, shear stress or the like exerted from the solid dispersing media  324 . Thereafter, the dispersion liquid passes through the outlet slit  328  and is removed through the discharge port  322 . 
     The outlet slit  328  has a size that will prevent the solid dispersing media  324  from escaping from the circular space  318 , and functions as a separating unit that separates the dispersion liquid (powder component+solvent) from the solid dispersing media  324 . Furthermore, the rotor  314  is provided with a returning hole  330  for returning the solid dispersing media  324  to the inlet side, so that the solid dispersing media  324  are kept from staying in the vicinity of the outlet. 
     The reason for cracking/pulverizing/dispersing a powder and an oil component in a volatile solvent using a medium agitating mill is that since the mixed and dispersed state of the powder component and the oily component can be improved, and the surface of the powder component can be uniformly coated with the oily component, a solid powder cosmetic having a good feeling of use can be obtained. Furthermore, a powder having strong cohesiveness can be easily cracked and uniformly dispersed in a volatile solvent. 
     Examples of the medium agitating mill have been described above, but in addition to those, suitable examples include batch type bead mills such as a basket mill; horizontal type, vertical type, and annular type continuous bead mills; sand grinder mills, ball mills, and Micros (registered trademark). However, there are no particular limitations on the medium agitating mill as long as the medium agitating mill conforms to the purpose of the present invention. That is, any medium agitating mill which, when a powder component that is in an aggregated state is incorporated, can crack the aggregation of the powder component and disperse with agitation the powder component to a state close to primary particles to thereby uniformly attach the oily component on the surfaces of the powder, can be used without any particular limitations. 
     The media to be used in the medium agitating mill are preferably beads, and beads produced from raw materials such as glass, alumina, zirconia, steel and flintstone can be used. Particularly, beads made of zirconia are preferred. In regard to the size of the beads, usually beads having a diameter of about 0.5 to 10 mm are used with preference, but in the present invention, beads having a diameter of approximately 2 mm to 5 mm are used with preference. If the size of the bead diameter is too small, cracking of the extender pigments such as mica and talc proceeds excessively, and an adverse effect is exerted on the feeling of use, or the hardness after molding is increased. As a result, appliability deteriorates, and caking or the like is easily induced. On the other hand, if the size of the bead is too large, aggregation of the powder component cannot be sufficiently cracked, and uniform coating with the oily component becomes difficult. 
     There are no particular limitations on the volatile solvent that is used in the present invention, but examples of the volatile solvent include purified water, cyclic silicones, ethanol, light liquid isoparaffin, lower alcohols, ethers, LPG, fluorocarbons, N-methylpyrrolidone, fluoroalcohols, volatile linear silicones, and next generation Freon. These solvents are used properly with different purposes, singly or as mixtures of two or more kinds, in accordance with the characteristics of the powder component or the characteristics of the oily component used. 
     The amount ratio (mass ratio) of the powder component and the oily component in the slurry preparation step depends on the type of the oily component and the powder component used, but the amount ratio is suitably such that powder component/oily component=60/40 to 99.5/0.5. At this time, since the amount of the volatile solvent used depends on the polarity, specific gravity and the like of the volatile solvent used, the amount of the volatile solvent cannot be specifically defined. However, it is important to secure the fluidity that enables the treatment with a medium agitating mill. 
     &lt;Drying Step&gt; 
     Next, an example of the drying apparatus that is used in the drying step of an embodiment according to the present invention will be described with reference to  FIG. 2 . The drying apparatus used in the production method according to the present embodiment is not limited to the apparatus of  FIG. 2 , and any drying apparatus equipped with a shearing unit which mechanically converts a slurry into fine liquid droplets is acceptable. The drying apparatus  14  shown in  FIG. 2  includes a hollow-shaped housing  16  which serves as the site for performing drying of the slurry; a shearing unit  18  which converts a slurry into fine liquid droplets by means of rotating shearing members (plate-shaped members  34   a,    34   b,  and  34   c ) that are provided inside the housing  16 ; a supply unit  20  which supplies the slurry to the shearing members (plate-shaped members  34   a,    34   b  and  34   c ) inside the housing  16 ; a gas blowing unit  22  which blows a dry gas into the housing  16 , and supplies the dry gas to the slurry that has been converted to fine liquid droplets by the shearing unit  18 ; and a capture unit  24  which captures a powdery composition generated by drying the slurry. 
     The housing  16  has an approximately cylindrical shape which is vertical and hollow, and is provided at the upper part with an emission port  26  which emits the powdery composition and the dry gas, and is provided at the lower part with a blowing port  28  which supplies the dry gas from the gas blowing unit  22  into the housing  16 . Also, a supply port  30  which supplies the slurry into the housing  16  is disposed between the emission port  26  located at the upper part of the housing  16  and the blowing port  28  located at the lower part. 
     The shearing unit  18  includes a rotating shaft  32  that is installed in the direction perpendicular to the bottom of the housing  16 , shearing members (plate-shaped members  34   a,    34   b  and  34   c ) that are provided at a right angle to the rotating shaft  32 , and a drive unit  36  for rotating the rotating shaft  32 . The drive unit  36  is disposed outside the housing  16 , and transfers a rotating force to the shearing members (plate-shaped members  34   a,    34   b  and  34   c ) through the rotating shaft  32 . The shearing members shown in  FIG. 1  consist of three plate-shaped members  34   a,    34   b  and  34   c  that are installed perpendicularly to the rotating shaft  32  at regular intervals in the vertical direction. These shearing members are located at the lower part of the supply port  30  for the slurry and in the upper part of the blowing port  28  for the dry gas. When the rotating shaft  32  is rotated by the drive unit  36  composed of a motor an the like, the plate-shaped members  34   a,    34   b  and  34   c  rotate in the horizontal direction about the rotating shaft  32  inside the housing  16 , and this mechanical shear force causes the conversion of the slurry into fine liquid droplets. 
     The supply unit  20  supplies the slurry sent from the storage tank  12  into the housing  16 . The slurry supplied to the housing  16  drops toward the plate-shaped members  34   a,    34   b  and  34   c,  and is converted into fine liquid droplets by the rotating plate-shaped members  34   a,    34   b  and  34   c.  Furthermore, the dry gas sent from the gas blowing unit  22  is blown into the housing  16  through the blowing port  28 . The dry gas is supplied toward the tangential direction of the horizontal cross-section of the housing  16 , and since the plate-shaped members  34   a,    34   b  and  34   c  are in a rotating movement, the dry gas stream blown into the housing  16  is changed to a swirling flow. When the slurry in the form of fine liquid droplets is brought into contact with this dry gas stream, the slurry is further micronized and is dried to form a powdery composition. This powdery composition is blown up together with the dry gas stream to the upper part of the housing  16 , and is emitted through the emission port  26 . The powdery composition emitted out of the housing  16  through the emission port  26  is captured by a capture unit  24 . 
     Furthermore, a classification unit  38  is provided in the area of the emission port  26  inside the housing  16 . The classification unit  38  is constructed as an orifice provided at the emission port  26 , and prevents large grains, lumps, undried materials and the like from entering the collection unit  24 . The configuration of the classification unit is not limited to this, and any other configuration may be used. 
     As such, when a mechanical shear force is exerted by the shearing members (plate-shaped members  34   a,    34   b  and  34   c ), and the slurry is converted to fine liquid droplets and dried, a powdery composition with less aggregation can be obtained. The reason why a powdery composition with less aggregation is obtained is speculated to be that when the slurry is converted to fine liquid droplets, the amount of the powder component present in the liquid droplets is small, and therefore, aggregation at the time of drying does not easily occur, and that the aggregation of the powder component occurring during the drying process is cracked by the shear force exerted by the shearing members or the swirling flow. 
     An example of using shearing members consisting of plate-shaped members that rotate in the horizontal direction has been described herein, but in addition to this, shearing members consisting of plate-shaped members that rotate in the vertical direction (the rotating shaft extending in the horizontal direction) may also be provided. Furthermore, the shape of the shearing member is not limited to the shape described above, and for example, a blade shape (a cutter provided perpendicularly to the tip of a rod-shaped member which is attached perpendicularly to the rotating shaft), a disc shape and the like may be used. Also, there are no particular limitations on the number of the shearing members, or the like. 
     The drying apparatus described above is of a type called flash dryer, and examples thereof include a Spin Flash Dryer manufactured by APV Nordic Anhydro A/S, a DryMeister manufactured by Hosokawa Micron Corp., and a vertical agitation dryer manufactured by Tsukishima Kikai Co., Ltd. There are no limitations on the drying apparatus that may be suitably used in the present invention, and any of vertical type and horizontal type drying apparatuses may be used as long as the apparatus has a shearing mechanism in the system. 
     The temperature of the dry gas used at the time of drying can be varied depending on the boiling point of the volatile solvent used. Also, since the drying efficiency increases as the temperature of the dry gas is higher, it is desirable to set the temperature of the dry gas high, to the extent that there are no adverse effects such as heat-induced alteration of the dry powder constituent components. 
     Furthermore, when an inert gas such as nitrogen gas or Ar gas is included in the housing  16 , the apparatus acquires excellent explosion proofness, and therefore, the work environment properties are also improved. In addition, recovery of the solvent is also made possible by adopting a solvent recovery mechanism such as a condenser. 
     &lt;Solidification Step&gt; 
     In regard to the method for producing a solid powder cosmetic according to the embodiment of the present invention, it is suitable that the production method further include a solidification step of filling the dry powder in a container and solidifying the dry powder by dry molding. As the method for solidification, conventionally known dry press molding and the like may be used. A solid powder cosmetic obtained as such maintains an excellent feeling of use, which is an advantage of solid powder cosmetic produced by wet methods, and also has good usage properties (appliability with a puff), which is an advantage of dry molding. Furthermore, in the case of conventional wet molding methods including a step of filling a slurry in a container by injection filling, since it is necessary to take into consideration of the fillability of the slurry, there are limitations in the raw materials to be used. However, it is an advantage of the production method of the present invention that there are no limitations on the raw materials to be used, as long as conventional dry press molding is carried out. 
     The amount of incorporation of the dry powder upon obtaining a solid powder cosmetic preferably 0.5 to 100 parts by mass, and more preferably 30 to 100 parts by mass, relative to 100 parts by mass of the cosmetic. 
     In the case of producing a solid powder cosmetic containing an added pearl pigment, representative examples of which include titanated mica and glass pearl, it is preferable to first obtain a dry powder using the portion of the powder component excluding the pearl pigment, by subjecting the powder component to the slurry preparation step and the drying step described above. This dry powder and a needed amount of a pearl pigment are mixed in a dry mixing machine which exerts a weak shear force, such as a Henschel mixer or a Nauta mixer, to obtain a mixed powder, and this mixed powder is filled in a container or is further subjected to dry molding. Thus, a solid powder cosmetic is obtained. The solid powder cosmetic obtained by this method is excellent in terms of the feeling of use and usage properties, and also has an excellent pearl-like texture. 
     EXAMPLES 
     Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail by way of Examples, but the present invention is not intended to be limited thereto. The amounts in the following formulations are expressed in percent (%) by mass. 
     &lt;Evaluation of Usage Properties of Solid Powder Cosmetic&gt; 
     (A) Evaluation of Long-Lasting Makeup Effect (Makeup Running and Oily Shining) 
     Foundations having the formulations as indicated in the following table were prepared by the slurry preparation process and the solid powder cosmetic production process described above, and the long-lasting makeup effect of the foundations was subjected to a panel test by a method described below. A panel of ten cosmetic experts applied each of the obtained foundations on the skin. After 3 hours, three expert evaluators performed a 10-grade evaluation (very poor long-lasting makeup effect: 0 point—very good long-lasting makeup effect: 10 points) in terms of the respective evaluation items of “makeup running evaluation” and “oily shining evaluation” according to the following evaluation criteria. The evaluation results were judged from the average points of the three expert evaluators according to the following judgment criteria. 
     [Judgment] 
     A: The average point of the evaluation points is equal to or greater than 9 and less than 10. 
     B: The average point of the evaluation points is equal to or greater than 6 and less than 8. 
     C: The average point of the evaluation points is equal to or greater than 4 and less than 5. 
     D: The average point of the evaluation points is equal to or greater than 2 and less than 3. 
     E: The average point of the evaluation points is less than 2. 
     (B) Evaluation of Usage Properties (Easy Appliability) 
     A panel of ten cosmetic experts applied each of the obtained foundations on the skin, and performed a 5-grade evaluation (very difficult to apply: 0 point—very easy to apply: 5 points) on the evaluation item of “easy appliability”, with respect to the differences before and after the treatment. 
     (C) Evaluation of Water Repellency and Oil Repellency 
     In the evaluation of water repellency, an observation was made by applying a produced powder on a surface coated with a water-insoluble composite film, and dropping 20 mg of water droplets thereon. Furtheiinore, in the evaluation of oily repellency, an observation was made by applying a produced powder on a surface coated with an oil-insoluble composite, and dropping 20 mg of oleic acid or squalene. The results of the observations were subjected to a 5-grade evaluation (significantly wetted: 0 point—very repellent: 5 points). 
     First, foundations to which the particular amide mixture of the present invention was incorporated as indicated in the following Table 1, were prepared, and an evaluation of the foundations was carried out.

     (Production method) The various components indicated in the formulations of the above Table 1 were dry mixed and pulverized using a pulverizer, and then the mixture was press molded. Thus, a solid-state solid powder cosmetic was obtained. 
     As shown in the above Table 1, in regard to the Production Examples 1-2 to 1-7 in which an amide mixture obtained by amidating a mixture of hexamethylenediamine and bisaminomethylcyclohexane with hydrogenated castor oil fatty acids is incorporated into a solid powder cosmetic in an amount of 1% to 20% by mass, relatively satisfactory results were obtained in all cases in the evaluations of makeup running, oily shining, and easy appliability. Particularly, the Production Examples 1-3 to 1-5 in which the amide mixture was incorporated in an amount of 2% to 10% by mass, were considered excellent in the evaluation of makeup running. 
     On the contrary, in regard to the Production Example 1-1 in which the amide mixture was not incorporated, the results for the evaluation of easy appliability were satisfactory, but the results for the evaluations of makeup running and oily shining were very poor. As the amount of incorporation of the amide mixture increased, the results for the evaluation of easy appliability tended to become poorer. In the Production Example 1-7 in which the amide mixture was incorporated in an amount of 20% by mass, the foundation was very difficult to apply. 
     Subsequently, foundations in which a spherical porous polymethyl methacrylate resin powder was further incorporated together with the particular amide mixture of the present invention as indicated in the following Table 2, were prepared, and an evaluation of the foundations was carried out.

                 *2: An amide mixture obtained using a mixture of hexamethylenediamine and bisaminomethylcyclohexane, and hydrogenated castor oil fatty acids, by performing an amidation reaction by a conventional method 
               
            
           
         
       
     
     (Production method) The various components indicated in the formulations of the above Table 2 were dry mixed and pulverized using a pulverizer, and then the mixture was press molded. Thus, a solid-state solid powder cosmetic was obtained. 
     As shown in the Table 2, it was found that in the Production Examples 2-2 to 2-7 in which a spherical porous polymethyl methacrylate powder was further incorporated in an amount of 1% to 20% by mass in addition to a certain amount of the amide mixture, the results for the evaluation of oily shining were improved. Particularly, in the Production Examples 2-3 to 2-6 in which the spherical porous PMMA resin powder was incorporated in an amount of 2% to 15% by mass, very excellent results were obtained for the evaluation of oily shining. 
     Next, foundations in which an organically modified clay mineral was further incorporated together with the particular amide mixture of the present invention as indicated in the following Formulation Table 3, were prepared, and an evaluation of the foundations was carried out.

     (Production method) The various components indicated in the formulations of the above Table 3 were dry mixed and pulverized using a pulverizer, and then the mixture was press molded. Thus, a solid-state solid powder cosmetic was obtained. 
     As shown in the Table 3, it was confirmed that when the amide mixture and an organically modified clay mineral were used in combination, the results for the evaluations of makeup running and oily shining were markedly improved. Particularly, in the Examples 3-2 to 3-4 in which the amide mixture and an organically modified clay mineral were incorporated together in an amount of 1% to 15% by mass, satisfactory results were obtained in all cases in the evaluations of makeup running and oily shining as well as in the evaluation of easy appliability. On the contrary, the Production Example 3-1 in which the amide mixture and the organically modified clay mineral were not incorporated, was poor in the evaluations of makeup running and oily shining. Furthermore, the Production Example 3-5 in which the amide mixture and the organically modified clay mineral were incorporated together in an amount of 20% by mass, was not satisfactory in terms of easy appliability. 
     In addition, foundations in which the particular amide mixture of the present invention and an organically modified clay mineral were incorporated, and a spherical porous polymethyl methacrylate resin powder was further incorporated as indicated in the following Formulation Table 4, were prepared, and an evaluation of the foundations was carried out.

     (Production method) The various components indicated in the formulations of the above Table 4 were dry mixed and pulverized using a pulverizer, and then the mixture was press molded. Thus, a solid-state solid powder cosmetic was obtained. 
     As shown in the Table 4, it was confirmed that when the amide mixture and an organically modified clay mineral were added, and a spherical porous polymethyl methacrylate resin powder was further incorporated in an amount of 1% to 20% by mass, the results for the evaluations of makeup running and oily shining, and the results for the evaluation of easy appliability were further improved (Production Examples 4-2 to 4-4). On the other hand, the Production Example 4-5 in which the spherical porous PMMA resin powder was incorporated in an amount of 30% by mass, exhibited excellent results for the evaluation of oily shining, but exhibited poor results for the evaluation of easy appliability. 
     Next, foundations in which the surfaces of the powder component were treated with a fluorine compound by further adding a fluorine compound at the time of mixing the powder component and the oily component as indicated in the following Formulation Table 5, were prepared, and an evaluation of the foundations was carried out.

     (Production Method) 
     The various components indicated in the above Formulation Table 5 were dispersed and mixed in ethyl alcohol with a disper-mixer, and the slurry viscosity was adjusted to about 2000 mPa·s. Subsequently, the slurry was subjected to cracking/pulverization/dispersion using a medium agitating mill (sand grinder mill) filled with 2-mmφ zirconia beads, and thus a powder slurry was obtained. The powder slurry was dried in the form of fine liquid droplets using an agitating drying apparatus, DryMeister (manufactured by Hosokawa Micron Group), and ethyl alcohol was vaporized to obtain a dry powder. The dry powder thus obtained was filled in a middle-sized dish made of a resin, and dry press molding was carried out by a known method. Thus, a solid-state solid powder cosmetic was obtained. 
     As shown in the above Table 5, it was found that in the Production Examples 5-2 to 5-5 in which a fluorine compound was further added in an amount of 0.1% to 10% by mass, and the surfaces of the powder component in the formulation was treated with the fluorine compound, water repellency and oil repellency was improved. On the other hand, when the fluorine compound was added in an amount of 15% by mass (Production Example 5-6), water repellency and oil repellency was excellent, but the product exhibited poor results in terms of easy appliability. 
     Furthermore, foundations in which a fluorine compound-treated powder was used in combination as the powder component as indicated in the following Formulation Table 6, were prepared, and an evaluation thereof was carried out.

     (Production method) The various components indicated in the formulations of the above Table 6 were dry mixed and pulverized using a pulverizer, and then the mixture was press molded. Thus, a solid-state solid powder cosmetic was obtained. 
     As shown in the Table 6, in the Production Examples 6-2 and 6-3 in which a fluorine compound-treated powder obtained by surface-treating with a fluorine compound in advance was incorporated in an amount of about 50% by mass, water repellency and oil repellency was markedly improved. Also, the results for the evaluation of easy appliability were also satisfactory. 
     Next, foundations prepared by dry mixing using a facing rotor type mixing apparatus as indicated in the following Tables 7 to 9, were evaluated for impact resistance and usage properties (feeling of particulate fineness, moist feeling, and smoothness). The evaluation criteria are as follows. The results are presented together in the following Tables 7 to 9. 
     Impact Resistance 
     The foundation of each Test Example was press molded in a resin and was mounted in a compact container for cosmetic use. This was used as a sample. The sample was dropped, while in a state of being laid horizontally, from a height of 30 cm on an iron plate having a thickness of 20 mm, and the number of droppings until breakage was used as an evaluation for impact resistance. 
     Usage Properties (Feeling of Particulate Fineness, Moist Feeling, Smoothness, Mealiness, Uniform Finish) 
     A panel of twenty female testers applied the foundation of each Test Example on a half of the face, and performed a comparative evaluation on the feelings of particulate fineness, moist feeling, smoothness, mealiness, and uniform finish.

     (Production Method) 
     Production Example 7-1: The various components of the formulation were mixed for a certain time in a Henschel mixer (manufactured by Mitsui Miike Machinery Co., Ltd.). Subsequently, the mixture was mixed two times using the facing rotor type mixing apparatus of  FIG. 1  (cyclone mill: manufactured by Flo-tec, Ltd.; used by rotating the first rotor and the second rotor in the opposite direction to each other). The mixture was dry press molded in a middle-sized resin dish. 
     Production Example 7-2 
     The various components of the formulation were mixed for a certain time in a Henschel mixer. Subsequently, the mixture was mixed two times with a pulverizer (manufactured by Hosokawa Micron Corp.), which is a hammer type pulverizing machine, and was dry press molded in a middle-sized resin dish.

Subsequently, the mixture was mixed two times using the facing rotor type mixing apparatus of  FIG. 1  (cyclone mill: manufactured by Flo-tec, Ltd.; used by rotating the first rotor and the second rotor in the opposite direction to each other).

     Production Example 9-2 
     The various components of the formulation were mixed for a certain time in a Henschel mixer. Subsequently, the mixture was mixed two times with a pulverizer (manufactured by Hosokawa Micron Corp.), which is a hammer type pulverizing machine, and was dry press molded in a middle-sized resin dish. 
     As shown in the Tables 7 to 9, it was confirmed that the foundations of Production Examples 7-1, 8-1 and 9-1 that were produced using a facing rotor type mixing apparatus had markedly improved impact resistance as compared with the Production Examples 7-2, 8-2 and 9-2 that were produced using a pulverizer (hammer type pulverizing machine). It was also found that the foundations of Production Examples 7-1, 8-1 and 9-1 were also excellent in the usage properties such as the feeling of particulate fineness, moist feeling, smoothness, mealiness, and uniform finish. 
     The same evaluations were performed on the foundations produced by using a facing rotor type mixing apparatus and varying the amount of incorporation of the amide mixture between 0.1% and 13% by mass. The results are presented in the following Table 10.

                 *1: An amide mixture obtained using a mixture of hexamethylenediamine and bisaminomethylcyclohexane, and hydrogenated castor oil fatty acids, by performing an amidation reaction by a conventional method 
               
            
           
         
       
     
     (Production method) The various components of each formulation in the Table 10 were mixed for a certain time in a Henschel mixer (manufactured by Mitsui Miike Machinery Co., Ltd.). Subsequently, the mixture was mixed two times using the facing rotor type mixing apparatus of  FIG. 1  (cyclone mill: manufactured by Flo-tec, Ltd.; used by rotating the first rotor and the second rotor in the opposite direction to each other). The mixture was dry press molded in a middle-sized resin dish. 
     As shown in the Table 10, the foundations of Production Examples 10-2 to 10-7 in which the amide mixture was incorporated in an amount of 1% to 10% by mass, had excellent impact resistance and were also satisfactory in terms of usage properties such as the feeling of particulate fineness, moist feeling, smoothness, mealiness, and uniform finish. On the contrary, in the Production Example 10-1 in which the amide mixture was not incorporated, a product that was particularly satisfactory in terms of mealiness and uniform finish, could not be obtained, and impact resistance could not be said to be sufficiently improved. The Production Example 10-7 in which the amide mixture was incorporated in an amount of 13% by mass, was particularly inferior in terms of smoothness and uniform finish. 
     Based on these results, particularly in the case of producing the solid powder cosmetic of the present invention using a facing rotor type mixing apparatus, the amount of incorporation of the amide mixture is suitably 1% to 10% by mass. 
     Hereinafter, other formulation examples of the solid powder cosmetic according to the present invention will be described below. The amounts in the following formulations are expressed in percent (%) by mass. 
     Powdery Foundation I 
     The various components shown in the following formulation were mixed for a certain time with a Henschel mixer, and then the components were mixed two times using the facing rotor type mixing apparatus of  FIG. 1 . The mixture was dry press molded in a middle-sized resin dish, and thus a powdery foundation was obtained. The powdery foundation thus obtained was excellent in all of the long-lasting makeup effect, usage properties, and impact resistance.

     Powdery Foundation II 
     The various components shown in the following formulation (except for the pearl pigment component) were mixed for a certain time with a Henschel mixer, and then the components were mixed two times using the facing rotor type mixing apparatus of  FIG. 1 . The pearl pigment was added thereto, and the mixture was lightly pulverized. Subsequently, the pulverization product was dry press molded in a middle-sized resin dish to obtain a powdery foundation. The powdery foundation thus obtained was excellent in the long-lasting makeup effect, usage properties, and impact resistance, as well as in the pearl-like texture.

     Powdery Foundation III 
     The various components shown in the following formulation were dispersed and mixed in ethyl alcohol with a disper-mixer, and the slurry viscosity was adjusted to about 2000 mPa·s. Subsequently, the slurry was subjected to cracking/pulverization/dispersion using a sand grinder mill filled with 2-mmφ zirconia beads. The powder slurry thus obtained was dried with a spin flash dryer to volatilize ethyl alcohol, and thus a dry powder was obtained. The dry powder thus obtained was filled in a middle-sized dish container made of a resin, and was press molded by a conventional dry press method. Thus, a powdery foundation was obtained. The powdery foundation thus obtained was excellent in both the long-lasting makeup effect and usage properties.

     Loose Powder 
     The various components shown in the following formulation (except for the pearl pigment component) were mixed for a certain time with a Henschel mixer, and then the mixture was mixed two times using the facing rotor type mixing apparatus of  FIG. 1 . The pearl pigment was added thereto, and the mixture was lightly pulverized. Subsequently, the resulting mixture was dry press molded in a middle-sized resin dish, and thus, a loose powder was obtained. The loose powder thus obtained was excellent in all of the long-lasting makeup effect, usage properties, and impact resistance, as well as in the pearl-like texture.
