Optimasi Basis Formula Foundation Stick

Abstract. Cosmetics are products designed to enhance the appearance and comfort of the user, one of which is the foundation stick. A foundation stick is a solid decorative cosmetic that is easy to apply, with a composition primarily consisting of wax. This study aims to determine the best basic formula for foundation stick from various concentrations of carnauba wax, vaseline album, cetyl alcohol, liquid paraffin, dimethicone, and other supporting ingredients. Evaluation was conducted on all formulas, including organoleptic tests such as color, smell, and texture, as well as tests for homogeneity and spreadability. Based on the evaluation results, the best formula was obtained in Formula 11 (F11), which showed organoleptic evaluation results that met the requirements, smooth homogeneity, and a spreadability of 4.275 ± 0.096 cm. On the other hand, several other formulas did not meet the evaluation criteria, particularly in terms of homogeneity and spreadability. This mismatch is suspected to be caused by the high concentration of carnauba wax, which is hard in nature, leading to uneven, brittle, and less homogeneous formulations. Furthermore, the imbalance between the liquid emollients and thickening agents also affects the hardness and stability of the formulation's shape. Abstrak.

Evaluasi dilakukan terhadap seluruh formula, mencakup uji organoleptis yang meliputi warna, bau, dan tekstur, serta uji homogenitas dan daya sebar. Berdasarkan hasil evaluasi, formula terbaik diperoleh pada Formula 11 (F11), yang menunjukkan hasil evaluasi organoleptis memenuhi persyaratan, homogenitas yang halus, serta daya sebar sebesar 4,275 ± 0,096 cm. Sebaliknya, beberapa formula lainnya belum memenuhi kriteria evaluasi, terutama pada aspek homogenitas dan daya sebar. Ketidaksesuaian ini diduga disebabkan oleh tingginya konsentrasi carnauba wax yang bersifat keras, sehingga dapat menyebabkan sediaan menjadi tidak merata, rapuh, dan kurang homogen.
