It is comprised of a rosinous or sugar-based matrix material in admixture with a particulate colloidal silica and a polyethylene in the form of a homopolymer, wherein the polyethylene is substantially linear or non-branched, has a molecular weight from about 250 to about 800 unified mass units, and is present in an amount in the range 0.1% to 5% by weight of the composition.

The ratio of silica to polyethylene is in the range 6.0:1.0 to 6.0:5.0 and wherein at least 60% of the weight of the epilatory composition is provided by rosinous material.
