Summary:1. Field of the Invention A powder comprising a core powder, a hydroxyapatite layered directly on the core, and zinc layered directly on the hydroxyapatite, suitable for use in cosmetics. The powder has a light reflection curve similar to that of the surface of the skin so that it exhibits good skin feeling and is superior in long wear effect for makeup and antibacterial effect.
