The present invention aims at providing a cement admixture having superior water-reducing performance, along with no decrease in slump and slump flow caused by decrease in fluidity of a cement composition over time. A cement admixture is to be provided, which cement admixture comprises two or more members of polycarboxylic acid-based polymers, wherein said cement admixture comprises at least one polycarboxylic acid-based polymer (A) having a constitutional unit represented by the following formula (1): ##STR00001## wherein R1 and R2 independently represent a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group with carbon atoms of 1 to 30, an alkenyl group with carbon atoms of 1 to 30, an aryl group with carbon atoms of 6 to 12; A represents an alkylene group with carbon atoms of 1 to 30 or an arylene group with carbon atoms of 6 to 12; a is 0 or 1; OR3 represents an oxyalkylene group with carbon atoms of 2 to 18, wherein each OR3 may be the same or different each other, provided that when OR3 is in a mixed form of two or more members, each OR3 may be added in a block or random form; R4 represents a hydrogen atom or a hydrocarbon group with carbon atoms of 1 to 30; and m represents an average mole number of oxyalkylene groups added and is in the range of 1 to 300; andat least one polycarboxylic acid-based polymer (B) having a constitutional unit represented by the following formula (2): ##STR00002## wherein R5 and R6 independently represent a hydrogen atom, a methyl group; x is an integer in the range of 0 to 2 and y is 0 or 1, provided that x and y are not 0 at the same time; OR7 represents an oxyalkylene group with carbon atoms of 2 to 18, wherein each OR7 may be the same or different each other, provided that when OR7 is in a mixed form of two or more members, each OR7 may be added in a block or random form; R8 represents a hydrogen atom or a hydrocarbon group with carbon atoms of 1 to 30; and n represents an average mole number of oxyalkylene groups added and is in the range of 1 to 300; and the weight ratio of said polycarboxylic acid-based polymer (A) and said polycarboxylic acid-based polymer (B) [weight ratio of (A)/(B)] is in the range of 1/99 to 99/1.
