A method of using of an aralkylalkylsiloxane includes adding the aralkylsiloxane as a component in a personal care composition, in an amount effective to enhance one or more properties, such as shine, lubricity and visual masking of inorganic components, of the personal care composition.

Method of using an aralkylsiloxane

A silicone emulsion useful as a component in hair care compositions In a first aspect of the present invention, a silicone emulsion comprises the product of a base catalyzed reaction of an aqueous emulsion of a hydroxy end-stopped polyorganosiloxane and an aminofunctional silane according to the structural formula: ##STR1## wherein: R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are each independently H, alkyl, or an aminoalkyl group according to the structural formula: ##STR2## and wherein: R.sup.4, R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 are each independently (C.sub.1 -C.sub.12)alkyl or (C.sub.2 -C.sub.8)alkoxy, provided that at least two of R.sup.4, R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 are each (C.sub.2 -C.sub.8)alkoxy;

Aminofunctional silicone emulsion

A non-aqueous silicone emulsion containing a silicone phase and an organic phase is useful as a component in various personal care compositions. The silicone phase contains a crosslinked silicone elastomer and a low molecular weight silicone fluid and the organic phase contains an organic liquid.

Non-aqueous silicone emulsions

A composition comprising the hydrosilylation addition product of a linear alkenyl functionalized polyorganosiloxane and an M.sup.H Q resin and a low molecular weight silicone when subjected to shearing provides for components in personal care formulations that have improved spreadability and substance.

Elastomer gels containing volatile, low molecular weight silicones

The present invention provides novel water-in-oil antiperspirant compositions which are transparent or substantially transparent, leave no white residue, and have a non-tacky feel.
