The invention provides fully aqueous-based antiperspirant compositions for application onto the skin for reducing or inhibiting body malodor and perspiration. The compositions contain blocked polyglycols which function as detackifiers and/or emollients, and which provide a completely soluble environment for the antiperspirant active ingredient. The compositions of the invention are stable, are easily and inexpensively prepared and manufactured, and provide versatile formulations which may be delivered and applied to the skin by a variety of means, including roll-ons, aerosols, and the like. Without the need for emulsions or stringent alcohol additives, the aqueous-based antiperspirant solution technology of the invention provides compositions that are clear, non-tacky, quick drying, and leave little to no visible residue or film on the skin following application.
