These compositions are substantially free of water and comprise a volatile silicone material, a particulate antiperspirant active, a low melting point wax, and a non-volatile paraffinic hydrocarbon fluid selected from mineral oils and branched chain C.sub.16 -C.sub.68 hydrocarbons. The method of preventing and controlling perspiration wetness using these compositions is also disclosed.
