This formulation relies on a standard solidified glycol structure to provide cosmetic odor masking. It is aluminum-free, meaning it is designed to manage scent rather than provide moisture occlusion. The formula provides a clear application and a vanilla scent profile.
The product utilizes a Dipropylene Glycol and Sodium Stearate base. As Sodium Stearate is a soap-based thickener, it has an alkaline nature that can be drying to the skin surface. Fragrance components are prominent in the formula to ensure long-lasting scent performance throughout the day.
To maintain skin comfort, it is recommended to monitor for sensitivity, as the alkaline pH and fragrance can impact the skin's acidic barrier. This stick is best applied to healthy, intact skin to avoid temporary stinging sensations.
- Maintenance Benefits: Long-lasting fragrance profile; clear application prevents white marks on clothing; aluminum-free for those preferring that profile.
- Formula Considerations: Potential for surface darkening or pigmentation in sensitive individuals; does not provide moisture control; alkaline base may affect barrier condition.
