Summary:PURPOSE:A cosmetic containing purified babassu oil capable of imparting a light feeling without stickiness and acting as an excellent emollient agent. CONSTITUTION:A cosmetic composition containing purified babassu oil. The babassu oil is a nondrying oil obtained from the nucleus of a fruit of a plant babassu palm of the family Arecaceae and consists mainly of triglyceride of an 8-18C fatty acid. Since the number of carbon atoms is relatively small, the babassu oil is a liquid or soft and ideal cosmetic raw material though the degree of unsaturation is low. Crude purified babassu oil obtained by subjecting babassu oil to distillation, oxidative bleaching, adsorption, etc., is dissolved in a nonpolar solvent, passed through an adsorption column to adsorb and remove polar impurities and the nonpolar solvent is distilled away to afford the aimed purified babassu oil having highly improved peculiar smell, hue and particularly stability to oxidative deterioration with time. The above-mentioned cosmetic has high emollient property and good feeling of use with slight oiliness.
