Abstract
Deodorant gel stick compositions, which are essentially free of water, comprising a heavy metal salt of 1-hydroxy pyridinethione as the deodorant active, a gelling agent, and a solvent system (preferably a polar solvent) are disclosed. These compositions have minimized component interactions, active component stability, and are excellent in the prevention of body malodors. Preferred compositions utilize zinc pyrithione as the deodorant active, and contain less than about 1% water. Other standard deodorant components may be included in compositions for cosmetic purposes.
