A cubic liquid crystal composition comprising at least one amphiphilic compound having the following general formula (1) and having an IV/OV value of 0.65 to 0.95, and water or an aqueous medium:
wherein R represents a hydrophilic group; X and Y each independently represent a hydrogen atom or together form an oxygen atom; n is an integer of 0 to 4; and m is an integer of 0 to 3.
The present invention provides a highly safe non-lamellar liquid crystal-forming composition. The present invention relates to a non-lamellar liquid crystal-forming composition comprising a phospholipid and an amphipathic compound represented by the following general formula (I), wherein X and Y each denotes a hydrogen atom or together denote an oxygen atom, n denotes the integer 1 or 2, m denotes the integer 1 or 2, and R denotes a hydrophilic group having one or more hydroxyl groups, and wherein the composition has an increased biocompatibility by the phospholipid.
