Antiperspirant/deodorant stick compositions

Improved antiperspirant stick compositions are provided which comprise a substantially anhydrous, homogeneous mixture of an alcohol soluble astringent basic aluminum compound as the active ingredient in a solid or semi-solid system including an alkylene polyhydric alcohol, a normally solid higher fatty acid amide of an alkylolamine in which the fatty acid radical contains at least 12 carbon atoms and the alkylol groups of the alkylolamine contain from 2 to 3 carbon atoms, and a non-toxic dermatologically acceptable non-aqueous solvent, such as ethanol, for the astringent basic aluminum compound. The mixture provides a highly esthestic, stable and quite effective antiperspirant in stick form suitable for application to the human axilla.
