An O/W emulsion cosmetic comprising (A) 1 to 20 wt% of a plate-like powder in which the surfaces of the powder particles are treated with an alkylalkoxysilane, (B) 0.1 to 10 wt% of an oil which has a solid form at 25˚C, (C) 0.3 to 50 wt% of an oil selected from a hydrocarbon oil, an ester oil and an ether oil each having a viscosity of 500,000 mPa·s or less at 25°C, (D) 0.1 to 20 wt% of a nonionic surfactant having an HLB value of 8 or less, (E) 0.05 to 10 wt% of a water-soluble polymer having a C 8-30 hydrocarbon group and an anionic group in the molecule, and (F) water, wherein the ratio of the weight of the component (B) to the weight of the component (A) (i.e., a (B)/(A) ratio) is 0.01 to 5. |
