Abstract
Personal care products in the form of a water-in-oil emulsion are disclosed.

The compositions may be formulated to include a wide variety of topically active materials in either the water or oil phase or both, such as deodorant actives, antiperspirant actives, moisturizers, anti-wrinkle actives, sunscreens, hair conditioners, and anti-inflammatory agents.
