PURPOSE: To provide a cosmetic containing a fatty acid having a chain of odd carbon number or its derivative, as an active component, and effective to promote the activation of the skin efficiently, thereby preventing and normalizing various dermatic diseases caused by the lowering of the moisture-retainability of the skin and the defective circulation of blood, and aging phenomena of the skin.
CONSTITUTION: The objective cosmetic contains, as an active component, a fatty acid having a chain of odd carbon number or its derivative, preferably a mono W triglyceride or primary W tertiary amide wherein at least one of the acid residues is group of the residue R of the fatty acid of formula RCOOH (R is straight-chain organic group having a chain of even carbon number), metallic salt or ester of said fatty acid, or of formula HOOCRCOOHR' (R' is straight chain organic group having a chain of odd carbon number), dibasic acid or its derivative, or a compound of formula I WformulaIV (R1 and R2 are chain organic group, and at least one of which is R; one of X is choline residue, etc. and the other is sugar residue, etc.).
