The subject invention relates to antiperspirant gel compositions comprising chelators. The subject invention also relates to a process for the manufacture of antiperspirant gel compositions comprising the steps of: (a) pre-mixing a chelator with an antiperspirant active in a substantially water free environment; and (b) adding a gelling agent and a liquid base material to the product of step (a) in a substantially water free environment. The antiperspirant gel stick composition comprising: (a) an antiperspirant active, (b) a gelling agent: (i) a primary gellant, 12-hydroxystearic acid derivatives and (ii) a secondary gellant, n-acyl amino acid amide derivatives, (c) a chelator capable of complexing with the active, (d) a liquid base material. |
