Abstract: Dry fluid compositions for use in cosmetic and personal hygiene products are disclosed. The dry fluid compositions are comprised of a base oil and a combination of at least two esters compounds selected from lauryl laurate, cetyl palmitate, stearyl behenate, and cetyl laurate. Inexpensive oils and petrolatum are used in place of more expensive silicones but the dry fluid compositions do not sacrifice the benefits of a silicone oil. The dry fluid compositions are most often used as part of an emulsion in personal hygiene products such as antiperspirants and deodorants or by itself as a body oil product.
