ANHYDROUS ANTIPERSPIRANT AND DEODORANT COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING A SOLID, WATER-SOLUBLE, SKIN ACTIVE AGENT AND GLYCERIN

摘要

Disclosed are anhydrous antiperspirant and deodorant compositions that comprise from about 0.1% to about 30% by weight of an antiperspirant or deodorant active; from about 0.1% to about 20% by weight of a water-soluble, skin active solid (e.g., solid, water-soluble vitamins or other nutrients) other than the antiperspirant or deodorant active; from about 0.1% to about 40% by weight of a suspending agent; from about 0.1% to about 2.0% by weight of glycerin; and from about 10% to about 99% by weight of an anhydrous carrier liquid other than glycerin. The anhydrous compositions have lower visible residue on the applied areas of the skin even though they also contain relatively high residue solids in the form of water-soluble skin active solids other than and in addition to the antiperspirant and deodorant active. The compositions also provide for a dry, silky feeling during or after application.
