Abstract: The present invention is a lathering cleansing composition comprising an alkyl ethoxylated polymer, at least one lathering surfactant, an acrylate cross linked copolymer and a particulate material and a lathering surfactant. These compositions provide good lathering and are readily rinsed. The particulate materials enhance cleansing and exfoliation or provide conditioning befits without damage and, or irritation.

Abstract: Methods of cleansing skin comprise the steps of contacting the skin with a cleansing compositions comprising a fatty ester in combination with a lipid, and either rinsing the composition from the skin with water or wiping the composition from the skin with a dry or damp substrate. The cleansing compositions can comprise at least 8%, by weight of the composition, of fatty ester and/or further comprise a nonionic surfactant and less than about 50%, by weight of the composition, of an alcohol solvent such as ethanol, isopropanol, or mixtures thereof. The methods and compositions provide skin cleansing and hydration benefits.

Abstract: A rinsable personal care composition comprises (a) 0 to 75 weight percent of a surfactant; (b) 0.01 to 99 weight percent of a skin benefit agent comprising a high modulus lipid and an ester; and (c) 0 to 99 weight percent water.

Abstract: Disclosed is a continuous line process for making a pre-formed object having a plurality of surfaces comprising the steps of: (1) providing a sol phase of the composition comprising a solvent and a gelling agent having a sol-gel transition point between about the melting point of the solvent and about the boiling point of the solvent; (2) forming surfaces of the sol phase composition by passing through a surface forming system, the surface forming system pressing the sol phase composition between a plurality of liners; (3) cooling the sol phase composition into a gel phase; and (4) cutting the gel phase composition; wherein the pre-formed object is free of a supporting substrate.
