A personal cleansing composition includes: (a) a surfactant system, wherein the surfactant system includes: from about 0.1% to about 5%, of a fatty acyl isethionate surfactant; from about 0.5% to about 40%, of a co-surfactant, wherein the co-surfactant is selected from the group consisting of an anionic surfactant being not an isethionate surfactant, a non-ionic surfactant, an amphoteric surfactant, a zwitterionic surfactant, and mixtures thereof; (b) from about 0.05% to about 5%, of a natural polysaccharide, a chemically modified natural polysaccharide, or a combination thereof; wherein the personal cleansing composition includes a first and second phase, wherein the first phase is an isotropic and micellar surfactant phase; wherein the second phase is a polymer liquid crystalline phase which includes polymer liquid crystals of the natural polysaccharide, the chemically modified natural polysaccharide, or the combination.

Personal cleansing compositions, methods and uses

A personal cleansing composition includes a surfactant system, wherein the surfactant system includes from 0.1% to 5% of a fatty acyl isethionate surfactant by weight of the composition; from 0.5% to 40% of a co-surfactant by weight of the composition; from 0.05% to 5% of a natural polysaccharide or a chemically modified natural polysaccharide by weight of the composition; wherein the personal cleansing composition includes a first and second phase, wherein the first phase is an isotropic and micellar surfactant phase; wherein the second phase is a polymer liquid crystalline phase; wherein the composition is free of alkyl sulfate and alkyl ether sulfate type of surfactants; wherein the composition exhibits a yield stress value &#x3c4;from 0.005 Pa to 3 Pa; and wherein the composition exhibits a flow viscosity from 3 Pa&#xb7;s to 100 Pa&#xb7;s at 25&#xb0; C. at a shear rate of 1.5 s.
