Abstract
A cleansing bar, comprising: 5 to 50% by weight soap and free fatty acid, based on the total weight of the cleansing bar, comprising 30 to 50% by weight free fatty acid based on the total weight of the cleansing bar and 0 to 16% by weight soap based on the total weight of the cleansing bar; wherein the weight ratio of free fatty acid:soap is greater than 1:1; 10 to 25% by weight non-soap synthetic surfactants, based on the total weight of the cleansing bar; 9 to 50% by weight zeolite, based on the total weight of the cleansing bar; and 10 to 30% by weight water, based on the total weight of the cleansing bar; wherein a pH of the cleansing bar measured from an 8% by weight bar slurry is 4.5 to 10. The bars are produced via a high-speed extrusion process without negatives (e.g., free of grittiness, cracking, etc.) while retaining good user properties (e.g., lather).
