Zinc Stearate is probably the most commonly used binding agent in powder makeup products such as face powders or eyeshadows. It gives very good adherence qualities, meaning it helps powders to stick together in the pan and to stick to the skin on application. Zinc Stearate is the "magic bullet" which helps improve adhesion for powder cosmetics.
The Stearate salts, Zinc Stearate is a fine, white powder with a slight fatty odour. In cosmetics and personal care products, Stearate salts are used mainly in the formulation of makeup products such as eyeliner, eyeshadow, mascara, lipsticks, blushers, face powders and foundations. They are also used in fragrances, deodorants, and hair and skin care products.
