For example, glycerin, propylene glycol, butylene glycol, sorbitol, etc. of polyhydric alcohol, pyrrolidonecarboxylic acid, water-soluble collagen, keratin, etc. of natural humec tant component, natural viscous substance having strongly humectant action, such as seed polysaccharide, etc. are used as the water-soluble humectant compo nent to provide the skin with wetness.
