Highly volatile silicone solvents are deposited on skin and other surfaces Such compositions can be used to deliver antimicrobial agents, skin conditioning agents, retentive polymers, skin feel agents, skin protective agents, and other materials in a fluid that spreads and evaporates in a few seconds, compositions can be sprayed onto skin without rubbing, to a persons legs and feet and where touching is undesirable. A highly viscous and tacky polymer such as a high molecular weight silicone polymer can be applied as a skin protectant for diaper rash prevention in a few seconds, leaving the skin smooth and non-tacky. Compositions of the invention can advantageously be applied to broken skin such as abrasions without pain and touching. Agents can thereby be delivered to the skin in a few seconds leaving behind a thin film, from antimicrobial protection and skin conditioning, to sunscreen protection.
