            8.     The composition of claim 8/7 contains a water soluble or oil soluble active                
            ingredient in either the discontinuous aqueous phase or the continuous oil phase,                 
            respectively.                                                                                     
            9.     The composition of claim 9/8/7 limits the active ingredient to one selected from           
            vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, niacin, folic acid, biotin, pantothenic acid,    
            vitamin E, tocopherol, "-tocopherol, ß-tocopherol, (-tocopherol, )-tocopherol,                    
            tocophersolan, tocopheryl acetate, tocopheryl palmitate, tocopheryl linoleate, tocopheryl         
            nicotinate, tocopheryl succinate, and mixtures thereof.                                           
            10.    The composition of claim 10/7 comprises a continuous oil phase having 0.2-3.0              
            wt.% linear silicone polyether, 0.2-10 wt.% ",T-diene crosslinked silicone elastomer,             
            and 0.1-4.0 wt.% nonionic organic emulsifier, the balance of the W/O emulsion                     
            containing a solvent and water.                                                                   
            11.    The composition of claim 11/10/7 limits the solvent to a volatile cyclic alkyl             
            siloxane with the formula (R'"2SiO)d or a volatile linear alkyl siloxane with the formula         
            R"'3SiO(R"'2SiO)eSiR"'3 in which R"' is an alkyl group containing 1-6 carbon atoms, d is          
            3-6 and e is 0-5.                                                                                 
            12.    More specifically, the composition of claim 12/11/10/7 limits the solvent to               
            hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane, octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane, decamethylcyclo-                        
            pentasiloxane, dedecamethylcyclohexasiloxane, hexamethyldisiloxane,                               
            octamethyltrisiloxane, decamethyltetrasiloxane, dodecamethylpentasiloxane,                        
            tetradecamethylhexasiloxane and hexadecamethylheptasiloxane.
