The Rise of Stick Cosmetics: Convenience and Hygiene in a Compact Package

Cosmetics in stick form are becoming increasingly popular, offering convenience and hygiene. M6 Info's recent video shows this trend, highlighting products like sunscreens, eye creams, and hydrating foundations now available in stick format. "The convenience is undeniable," says Nadia Kruma, a beauty product manager. The video also delves into the manufacturing process, showcasing how these sticks are made and emphasizing their eco-friendly nature. Pauline Tuslane, responsible for research and development at a cosmetic group, explains that "these anhydrous products, without water, don't require preservatives." This innovation offers consumers a practical and hygienic alternative, particularly useful for touch-ups and targeted application. While a milk or oil remains essential for full-body sun protection, stick formats are proving to be more economical and convenient.
