CONSTITUTION:A powder base is prepared by mixing talc with kaolin at a ratio of prepferably 4/6-6/4. The resultant powder base is combined with other desired components, preferably magnesium stearate, and magnesium oxide in a proportion of 60-80:6-12: more than 2, preferably 3-5, in percentage and the composition is compressed into sticks, thus producing the objective stick-shaped powder cosmetic.
