Also if not just magnesium stearate, can I use combination of it both magnesium and zinc sterate and use it at a total of 17%? Is it okay to use at such high levels?

Hello guys I’m new to the forum and I’m a fresher in colour cosmetics and currently working with some pressed formulations as well as the baked formulations which includes eyeshadow, blusher etc. Im seeking some help here regarding the usage of dry binders. Currently working with magnesium stearate but at what extent can I use it? As in after the research I couldn’t see any exact dosage but could see mostly people use it at max. 7%. Can i go above 10% of it to solve drop test issue in baked formulation ? Would 12-17% be okay? Already tried it and it’s working but don’t know if that’s doable. Any help would be great!
