1. A sprayable depilatory composition comprising:
a depilatory agent; a surfactant comprising ceteareth 20, cetearyl alcohol, and stearyl ether, wherein the surfactant is present in the range of 0.1% to 3.5% by weight of the composition; and a pH regulator to maintain the pH of the composition at a value greater than 5; wherein the surfactant comprises ceteareth 20 present in an amount of not more than about 1.0% by weight of the composition; wherein the surfactant comprises cetearyl alcohol in an amount of less than about 2.2% by weight of the composition; wherein the surfactant comprises stearyl ether in an amount of less than about 0.6% by weight of the composition; wherein the composition has a viscosity in the range of about 1.0 Pas to about 5.00 Pas; wherein the depilatory agent comprises one or more depilatory actives selected from the group consisting of thioglycolic acid, cysteine, glutathione, N-acetyl-L-cysteine, lipoic acid, thiosalicylic acid, and thiolactic acid, and cosmetically- and/or pharmaceutically-acceptable salts thereof; and wherein the composition comprises the one or more depilatory actives in an amount of 8.0% to 14% by weight.
