  • Patent number: 8900609
    Abstract: The invention relates to a—in particular—hydrous, sweat-absorbing cosmetic product, e.g. a deodorant, containing a sweat-absorbing complex. The invention also relates to a method for the production of said complex and said cosmetic product. The cosmetic product of the invention includes i) a base formulation, and ii) a sweat-absorbing complex comprising (a) at least one water-absorbing component, (b) at least one surface-active agent, c) at least one electrolyte, and (d) at least one solvent and/or at least one vehicle. The sweat-absorbing complex in the base formulation is present in the form of emulsified particles. The particles consist of a three-dimensional, water-swellable network of said at least one water-absorbing component and are at least partially covered with said at least one surface-active agent. Said at least one electrolyte is incorporated at least partially in the interstices of the three-dimensional network of said at least one water-absorbing component.
