Gel cosmetic compositions

摘要

A single phase aqueous gel composition comprising 0.05-50% of a polysaccharide gellant, and 1-30% of an antiperspirant active ingredient solubilized in the aqueous single phase. A water and oil emulsion comprising a gelled aqueous phase comprising a polysaccharide gellant and an antiperspirant active ingredient solubilized in the aqueous single phase; and an oil phase. A method for preparing an emulsion antiperspirant or deodorant composition comprising preparing a first aqueous solution of antiperspirant or deodorant active, preparing a second aqueous solution of polysaccharide gellant, emulsifying the second aqueous solution in an oily phase to form an emulsion, combining the first aqueous solution and the emulsion so that the first and second aqueous solutions form a single homogeneous phase in the emulsion; and pouring the mixture into containers.
