Abstract

A solid hydrated stick for topical application containing emulsified water soluble ingredients and volatile emollients. The stick is a solid emulsion comprising by weight from 15% to 40% of a cyclic silicone, 2% to 15% of an oil, 2% to 20% of a wax, 2% to 7% of polyethylene glycol sorbitan beeswax, 10% to 40% water, and 0.1% to 40% of a cosmetically acceptable functional ingredient. The polyethylene glycol sorbitan beeswax acts as an emulsifier and contributes to the rigidity of the stick, while the silicone serves as an emollient to impart a smooth, buttery feel when the composition is applied to the skin.
