Semi-solid low residue water-containing antiperspirant composition

摘要

Semi-solid antiperspirant compositions are disclosed. These compositions do not leave a significant white residue on the skin of the user and exhibit good skin feel when applied. In addition, the compositions allow for the incorporation of free water into the formulation without deactivating the antiperspirant active. This is particularly useful in the incorporation of solutions of natural botanical components into the antiperspirant composition. The semi-solid antiperspirant compositions of the present invention comprise from about 5% to about 35% of a particulate antiperspirant active; from about 10% to about 60% of a volatile solvent; from about 2% to about 15% of a thickening agent; from about 1% to about 10% of an ester wax; and from about 0.5% to about 10% water.
