Cosmetic puff

Abstract

It is an object of the invention to provide an effective technique for realizing a desired moisture releasing property, in a cosmetic puff having an air-laid non-woven fabric sheet formed of pulp fibers. A cosmetic puff 100 according to this invention includes an inner layer 110 in the form of a sheet and surface layers 120 in the form of laminated sheets on the both sides of the inner layer 110 . The inner layer 110 is formed by an air-laid non-woven fabric sheet containing at least pulp fibers and polyethylene terephthalate fibers.

1 . A cosmetic puff comprising an air-laid non-woven fabric sheet, wherein the air-laid non-woven fabric sheet comprises pulp fibers and hydrophobic synthetic fibers. 
     
     
         2 . The cosmetic puff as defined in  claim 1 , wherein the air-laid non-woven fabric sheet includes the hydrophobic synthetic fibers at the rate of 10 to 50% by weight. 
     
     
         3 . The cosmetic puff as defined in  claim 1 , wherein the pulp fibers of the air-laid non-woven fabric sheet have a fiber weight per unit length of 0.20 mg/m or more. 
     
     
         4 . A cosmetic puff comprising an air-laid non-woven fabric sheet, wherein
 the air-laid non-woven fabric sheet contains pulp fibers with a fiber weight per unit length of 0.20 mg/m or more.   
     
     
         5 . The cosmetic puff as defined in  claim 1 , wherein the air-laid non-woven fabric sheet includes surface layers, at least one of the surface layers being formed of rayon fibers. 
     
     
         6 . The cosmetic puff as defined in  claim 4 , wherein the air-laid non-woven fabric sheet includes surface layers, at least one of the surface layers being formed of rayon fibers. 
     
     
         7 . The cosmetic puff as defined in  claim 1 , wherein at least one of the surface layers of the air-laid non-woven fabric sheet includes moisturizer application regions to which a moisturizer is applied and moisturizer non-application regions which are regions other than the moisturizer application regions, and wherein said surface layer has an area in which the moisturizer application regions and the moisturizer non-application regions are alternately arranged at least in one of the directions of the width and the length of the air-laid non-woven fabric sheet. 
     
     
         8 . The cosmetic puff as defined in  claim 4 , wherein at least one of the surface layers of the air-laid non-woven fabric sheet includes moisturizer application regions to which a moisturizer is applied and moisturizer non-application regions which are regions other than the moisturizer application regions, and wherein said surface layer has an area in which the moisturizer application regions and the moisturizer non-application regions are alternately arranged at least in one of the directions of the width and the length of the air-laid non-woven fabric sheet.
