Question
How can I create a stick product texture similar to a deodorant stick that allows for the incorporation of water-soluble ingredients? What ingredients and ratios are recommended?
Answer
Based on the conversation, to create a stick format that can incorporate water-soluble ingredients, you can use Paste Maker (Ceteareth-25). The staff suggested trying a ratio of 20% Paste Maker with 80% water. This combination creates a thick gel texture, similar to a deodorant stick, which is suitable for this application and allows you to include water-soluble components unlike traditional oil/wax-based lotion bars.
