Abstract
pp.48–56 Based on the factor analysis of facial appearance using facial texture images, it was found that evenness of skin produced a youthful appearance. We developed a new composite powder which has the optical property to provide ‘youthful‐looking’ skin. Facial images of 161 women volunteers with make‐up were prepared, and the appearance of skin and face were evaluated by 15 subjects. The results of correlation analysis showed that ‘evenness of skin texture’ and ‘color evenness’ caused a ‘youthful impression’. In order to obtain the evenness of skin, we attempted to develop a new powder that has an ideal optical property of transmitted light. Titanium oxide‐containing silica/color pigment composite powder prepared by the super critical solution method had effective light transmission, diffusion and chroma saturation. We achieved the production of a youthful appearance by application of the composite powder as an ingredient of a foundation.
