The visual appearance of skin such as axilla skin is not improved significantly by topical application of an antiperspirant composition that is a stick that comprises at least 8% by weight of a fatty alcohol gellant. The visual appearance of a cosmetic antiperspirant composition comprising 5-30% of an astringent antiperspirant salt, 40-80% of a continuous liquid phase comprising at least one water-immiscible oil and 5-30% of a fatty alcohol wax gellant, as indicated by tone, radiance and smoothness, is enhanced by incorporating at least 0,25% of a mica pigment, optionally on the presence of a di or tri-hydric humectant and/or a triglyceride oil. Preferably the composition comprises 20 to 35% by weight of a non-volatile oil, and/or a co-gellant that melts at from 75 to 90° C. such as caster wax or polyethylene of molecular weight 300 to 600. |
