Liquid stick antiperspirant

1. A method for improving stability of an antiperspirant, comprising: preparing a blend that comprises dibenzylidene sorbitol; adding an antiperspirant active to the blend, to make an antiperspirant blend; and adding one or more alkaline earth silicate salts to the antiperspirant blend in a concentration effective for stabilizing the dibenzylidene sorbitol.

2. The method of claim 1 wherein the alkaline earth salt stabilizes the dibenzylidene sorbitol for process temperatures up to 105° C.

3. The method of claim 1 further comprising adding the antiperspirant to a container.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising adding propylene glycol to the blend.

5. The method of claim 1 further comprising adding hydroxypropyl cellulose to the blend.

6. The method of claim 1 further comprising adding stearyl alcohol to the blend.

7. The method of claim 1 further comprising adding fragrance to the antiperspirant blend.

8. The method of claim 1 wherein the antiperspirant active comprises aluminum zirconium tetrachlorhydrex glycine complex.

9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising zinc glycinate.

10. A product made by the process of claim 1 .

11. An antiperspirant wherein the structurant, carrier, antiperspirant and antiperspirant stabilizer comprise propylene glycol, dibenzylidene sorbitol, solid active antiperspirant, and one or more alkaline earth silicate salts in a concentration effective for stabilizing the dibenzylidene sorbitol.

12. The antiperspirant of claim 11 wherein the propylene glycol concentration is within a range of about 65 to 90% w/w.

13. The antiperspirant of claim 11 wherein the dibenzylidene sorbitol concentration is within a range of about 0.5 to 3.0% w/w.

14. The antiperspirant of claim 11 wherein the solid active antiperspirant comprises aluminum zirconium tetrachorohydrex glycine complex.

15. An antiperspirant comprising one or more alkaline earth silicate salts in a concentration effective for stabilizing the dibenzylidene sorbitol.

16. A method for improving process stability of an antiperspirant comprising employing dibenzylidene sorbitol, an alkaline earth silicate salt and a solid active antiperspirant to make the antiperspirant.

17. An antiperspirant formulation comprising dibenzylidene sorbitol, an antiperspirant and one or more of an alkaline earth silicate salt effective for stabilizing the dibenzylidene sorbitol.
