The invention relates to concentrated liquid cleansing compositions in lamellar phase which possess a lotion-like appearance conveying signals of enhanced moisturization. The use of a specific ratio of synthetic anionic surfactant(s) and co-surfactant(s) to fatty acid(s) in a structured liquid product was found to improve lather production by moderating or eliminating the increase in viscosity upon dilution. In a further embodiment, specific small hydrophobic molecules were found to improve freeze/thaw stability and thereby cause the inventive composition to maintain noticeable moisturization signals.

Concentrated lamellar liquid personal cleansing composition

A personal care implement is disclosed having a water insoluble absorbent/adsorbent layer attached to a water insoluble scrubbing layer and a mild, low active, low viscosity cleansing composition contained in the absorbent/adsorbent layer. A sufficient quantity of the composition is transferred on demand to the scrubbing layer by squeezing the implement. The implement produces copious quantities of lather foam and mild cleansing.
