The present invention provides a method for producing a material dispersed with ultraviolet shielding fine particles, characterized by subjecting a starting material liquid mixture comprising particles comprising one or more inorganic substances having shielding abilities against ultraviolet light, one or more silicone dispersants selected from modified silicones and reactive silicones, and a silicone oil to a mill treatment and/or a high-pressure dispersion treatment; and ultraviolet shielding fine particles or a material dispersed therewith, characterized by being produced by the above method. Also, the present invention provides a method of producing a powdery product of ultraviolet shielding fine particles, characterized by drying the material dispersed with ultraviolet shielding fine particles obtainable by the above method. Further, the present invention provides cosmetics comprising a material dispersed with ultraviolet shielding fine particles or a powdery product of the ultraviolet shielding fine particles. The material dispersed with ultraviolet shielding fine particles of the present invention is characterized in that the ultraviolet shielding fine particles comprise particles comprising one or more inorganic substances having shielding abilities against ultraviolet light, surfaces thereof being coated with one or more silicone dispersants selected from modified silicones and reactive silicones, and that at least a part of the ultraviolet shielding fine particles is dispersed in a silicone oil as aggregated particles of the particles comprising inorganic substances. |
