A method of producing an anhydrous antiperspirant composition comprising (a) providing a mixture of at least one antiperspirant active including a metal salt, and an anhydrous carrier for the at least one antiperspirant active in which the at least one antiperspirant active is dissolved, the carrier comprising a eutectic mixture of at least one basic compound selected from a basic amide and a basic amine and at least one member chosen from a cation and zwitterion； and (b) heating the mixture to form a stabilized eutectic system of the at least one antiperspirant active and the anhydrous carrier. Also, an anhydrous antiperspirant composition.
