Abstract
Abstract Base compositions which are hydrophobic waxy matrixes for cosmetic preparations such as antiperspirants and deodorants containing volatile silicones as emollients, wherein the amount of silicone may be reduced by use of certain liquid polyoxypropylene-alkyl ethers as emmolients, and the efficacy astringent metal salts as antiperspirants may be enhanced by the use of a combination of stearic acid and hydroxy stearic acid.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
146 words
A solid antiperspirant stick composition consisting essentially of: A. about 15 to 35 percent by weight of an astringent material suspended in B. a waxy matrix, comprising about 17 to 30 percent by weight of said composition and consisting essentially of: (1) about 15 to 25 percent by weight of a fatty alcohol, (2) about 1 to 3 percent by weight of stearic acid, (3) about 1 to 2 percent by weight of hydroxystearic acid; said matrix containing C. an emollient, comprising about 30 to 55 percent by weight of said composition and consisting essentially of: (1) about 15 to 28 percent by weight of a volatile silicone compound, (2) about 15 to 25 percent by weight of a liquid polyoxypropylene-alkyl ether, (3) about 0 to 5 percent by weight of mineral oil; said astringent material being suspended in said waxy matrix using a suspending agent.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
146 words
A solid antiperspirant stick composition consisting essentially of: A. about 15 to 35 percent by weight of an astringent material suspended in B. a waxy matrix, comprising about 17 to 30 percent by weight of said composition and consisting essentially of: (1) about 15 to 25 percent by weight of a fatty alcohol, (2) about 1 to 3 percent by weight of stearic acid, (3) about 1 to 2 percent by weight of hydroxystearic acid; said matrix containing C. an emollient, comprising about 30 to 55 percent by weight of said composition and consisting essentially of: (1) about 15 to 28 percent by weight of a volatile silicone compound, (2) about 15 to 25 percent by weight of a liquid polyoxypropylene-alkyl ether, (3) about 0 to 5 percent by weight of mineral oil; said astringent material being suspended in said waxy matrix using a suspending agent.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
