An underarm composition is provided which includes C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl acetate, an underarm active selected from astringent salts and anti-microbial agents, and a carrier. The carrier may include propellant, silicone, ester and liquid paraffin. Methyl and t-butyl acetates are preferred. Acetates allow reduction in the levels of more volatile organics thereby decreasing air pollution. They also reduce formulation greasiness, are less clogging to spray nozzles, cause less metal can corrosion and reduce caking of actives through better resuspension.
