The compositions comprise water-in-oil emulsions and a variety of substantially insoluble dispersed powder. The compositions are useful for applying color to human skin or hair, for protecting human skin from ultraviolet radiation, and for treating human skin or hair with a dermatologically active agent. The compositions have unique suspending power, stability and dispersibility for water-in-oil emulsions.
