Abstract
Disclosed are antiperspirant stick compositions comprising specified amounts of antiperspirant active; carrier oil comprising volatile silicone oil and non-volatile masking oil; structurant comprising fatty alcohol and cosmetically acceptable wax having a melting point of 75 to 95° C., a portion of wax comprises polyethylene in specified amounts. Also disclosed are methods of making such stick compositions, and methods of ameliorating perspiration by the topical application of such compositions to the skin.
Claims22
An antiperspirant stick composition comprising:
- a) from 15 to 30 wt. % antiperspirant active;
- b) carrier oil comprising:
- i) volatile silicone oil, the volatile silicone oil being present in the stick composition in an amount of from 20 to 40 wt. %;
- ii) non-volatile, non-silicone masking oil, the non-volatile, non-silicone masking oil being present in the stick composition in an amount of from 20 to 40 wt. %,
- c) structurant comprising:
- i) fatty alcohol, the fatty alcohol being present in the stick composition in an amount of from 12 to 25 wt. %;
- ii) cosmetically acceptable wax having a melting point of from 75 to 95° C., a portion of which comprises polyethylene, the cosmetically acceptable wax being present in the stick composition in an amount of from 2 to 10 wt. %, and the polyethylene being present in the stick composition in an amount of from 0.3 to 3%.
An antiperspirant stick composition consisting essentially of:
- a) from about 15 to about 30 wt. % of antiperspirant active;
- b) carrier oil comprising:
- i) volatile silicone oil, the volatile silicone oil being present in the stick composition in an amount of from about 20 to about 40 wt. %;
- and
- ii) non-volatile, non-silicone masking oil, the non-volatile, non-silicone masking oil being present in the stick composition in an amount of from 20 to 30 wt. %;
- c) structurant comprising:
- i) fatty alcohol, the fatty alcohol being present in the stick composition in an amount of from about 15 to about 25 wt. %;
- ii) cosmetically acceptable wax having a melting point of 75 to 90° C., a portion of which comprises polyethylene, the cosmetically acceptable wax being present in the stick composition in an amount of from 3 to 8 wt. %, and the polyethylene being present in the stick composition in an amount of from 0.7-3 wt. %.
