Substantially anhydrous compositions including at least 10% by weight of a C 2 or C 3 mono-alcohol, a solid, organic UV-filter dissolved therein; and an oil portion including one or more oils, the oil portion having an interfacial tension with water of greater than 9 and less than 45, where the composition has a volume fraction of oil relative to oil plus C 2 or C 3 mono-alcohol that is about 0.47 or greater, and is substantially free of a mixture of a low-volatility, C 2 -C 8 liquid silicone and a branched fatty acid ester of a polyprotic carboxylic acid in a ratio of from about 3:1 to 4.25:1 |
