Preparation of antiperspirant gels which obviates the use of simple glycols
First Claim
1. A clear emulsion and gel cosmetic composition which is an antiperspirant and/or deodorant composition which comprises a water-in-oil emulsion comprising:
- a) about 65% to about 75% of an aqueous solution of an effective amount of antiperspirant active;
b) about 25% to about 35% of an oil phase consisting of silicones, emollients and a silicone emulsifying agent, and comprising at least one volatile silicone, at least one non-volatile ester or at least one nonvolatile silicone, and wherein at least one oil phase soluble ingredient has a refractive index of about 1.40 to about 1.45;
c) about 0.01 to about 8.5% of a coupling agent; and
d) at least one polymeric ethylene oxide glycol adduct which component raises the refractive index of said aqueous solution, and optionally another water soluble, non-simple glycol component which raises the refractive index of said aqueous solution;
wherein said composition is essentially free of glycols and low and middle chain alcohols.

Abstract
A clear emulsion and gel-type cosmetic composition, and in particular to an antiperspirant and/or deodorant composition which comprises a water-in-oil emulsion comprising:
a) about 65% to about 75% of an aqueous solution of an effective amount of antiperspirant active;
b) about 25% to about 35% of an oil phase consisting of silicones, emollients and a silicone emulsifying agent, and comprising at least one volatile silicone, at least one non-volatile ester or at least one nonvolatile silicone, and wherein at least one oil phase soluble ingredient has a refractive index of about 1.40 to about 1.45;
c) about 0.01 to about 8.5% of a coupling agent; and
d) at least one polymeric ethylene oxide glycol adduct which component raises the refractive index of said aqueous solution, and optionally another water soluble, non-simple glycol component which raises the refractive index of said aqueous solution;
wherein said composition is essentially free of glycols and low and middle chain alcohols;
is described.
