The present invention relates to color particles from an extrudate, the production thereof, color particles produced by the process and the use of the color particles for the production of foodstuffs, beverages, cosmetics, in particular oral hygiene products, pharmaceuticals and consumer articles, in particular washing and cleaning agents in liquid, gel-like or powdery form, animal food or animal care products and foods, beverages, cosmetics, in particular oral hygiene products, pharmaceuticals, consumer goods, in particular detergents and cleaning agents in liquid, gel-like or powdery form, animal food or animal care products comprising the color particles.

Antiperspirant/deodorant compositions are described. Said antiperspirant/deodorant compositions comprise, in a cosmetically acceptable medium, (a) at least one cosmetic ingredient obtained from Bamboo, (b) at least one cosmetic ingredient obtained from Maranta arundinaceae (Arrowroot); and (c) at least one natural starch. These antiperspirant/deodorant compositions are useful in reducing body odor and in wetness absorption. A method for the cosmetic treatment of body odors, in particular axillary odors, which includes applying, to the skin, in particular the axillae, these compositions is also described.
