Personal care compositions having improved compatibility and providing improved sun protection

A personal care composition comprising from 0.1 to 40 weight percent based on the total weight of the personal care composition of a liquid silicone resin comprising the units:

• (PrSiO3/2)m
• (Me3SiO1/2)n
• (PhSiO3/2)o
• (Ph2SiO2/2)p
