Description: CLEANSING PRODUCTS TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to compositions for personal cleansing in the form of non- emulsified oil, surfactant and water dispersions. These dispersions provide more efficient delivery of both the water-insoluble oils and water soluble cleansing ingredients to the skin than is provided by most emulsion products. Therefore, these compositions have the advantage of providing improved cleansing efficacy without irritating the skin or leaving the skin feeling tight or dry. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Personal cleansing products have traditionally been marketed in a variety of forms such as bar soaps, creams, lotions, and gels. These cleansing formulations have attempted to satisfy a number of criteria to be acceptable to consumers. In order to be acceptable to consumers, a product must exhibit good cleansing properties, must exhibit good lathering characteristics, must be mild to the skin and preferably should provide a moisturizing benefit to the skin. Ideal personal cleansers should gently cleanse the skin or hair, cause little or no irritation, and not leave the skin or hair overly dry after frequent use. These traditional forms of personal cleansing products have the inherent problem of balancing cleansing efficacy against delivering a conditioning benefit. One solution to this problem is for the consumer to use separate cleansing and conditioning products. This is not always convenient or practical and many consumers would prefer to use a single product which can both cleanse and condition the skin or hair. However, in typical cleansing compositions, the conditioning ingredients are difficult to incorporate because many conditioners are incompatible with the surfactants, resulting in an undesirable non-homogenous mixture. To obtain a stable homogeneous mixture of surfactants and conditioning agents, two-phase emulsions have been formulated. The oil based conditioning agents are dispersed in the oil phase and the surfactant cleansing system is dispersed in the water phase. This results in an aesthetically pleasing uniform emulsion mixture, but can result in poor deposition of conditioning ingredients, because the conditioners are emulsified and not necessarily efficiently released during cleansing. Also, most traditional skin conditioning oils have the disadvantage of suppressing lather generation. It is known that the addition of an oil to a surfactant solution results in a increase in interfacial tension of the solution due to the fact that the surfactant molecules are tied up with the oil at the oil-water interface of the emulsion The increased interfacial tension decreases the lathering and cleaning ability of the surfactant. Lather suppression is a problem because many consumers seek cleansing products that provide a rich, creamy, and generous lather. One way to provide cleansing compositions which incorporate both insoluble conditioning components and water-soluble cleansing components without the disadvantages particularly associated with the emulsion form would be therefore, to develop a non-emulsified form of cleansing composition with insoluble conditioners and water-based cleansers. Applicants have found that, surprisingly, personal cleansing products which contain both insoluble skin conditioning ingredients and a cleaning surfactant can be formulated without forming an emulsion. Since no emulsion is formed, the interfacial tension of the surfactant solution remains low and the lathering and cleansing benefits of the surfactant are maintained. Without being limited by theory it is believed that since the insoluble skin conditioning ingredients are dispersed in the composition, they are more efficiently deposited to the skin, providing conditioning benefits. Also, since the insoluble skin conditioning ingredients are dispersed in the composition without dramatically increasing the interfacial tension of the cleansing components, the cleansing and lathering benefits of the cleansing component are not negatively affected. The present invention relates to non-emulsified personal cleansing compositions which consist of a lathering surfactant based cleansing component and an insoluble skin conditioning component which does not increase the interfacial tension of the cleansing component by more than 150%. The compositions provide improved cleansing and skin conditioning benefits over traditional oil-in-water emulsion cleansers. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a non-emulsified personal cleansing composition comprising: A. from about 35% to about 99.9%, by weight of the personal cleansing composition, of a cleansing component comprising: i. from about 5% to about 74.5%, by weight of the personal care composition, of a lathering surfactant; and ii. from about 25% to about 89.9%, by weight of the personal care composition, of water; and B. from about 0.1% to about 65%, by weight of the personal cleansing composition, of an insoluble skin conditioning component; wherein the insoluble skin conditioning component has an interfacial tension index of less than about 150%' in the cleansing component In one embodiment of the present invention, the insoluble skin conditioning component within the non-emulsified personal cleansing composition comprises a solid polyol carboxylic acid ester and an insoluble skin conditioning oil wherein the ratio of the amount of the solid polyol carboxylic acid ester to the amount of insoluble skin conditioning oil is from about 20:80 to about 100:0. The present invention also relates to methods for cleansing and conditioning the skin or hair and to metliods for removing make-up from skin with the personal cleansing products described herein. All percentages and ratios used herein, unless otherwise indicated, are by weight and all measurements made are at 25°C, unless otherwise designated. The invention hereof can comprise, consist of, or consist essentially of, the essential as well as optional ingredients and components described therein. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The non-emulsified personal cleansing compositions of the present invention are highly efficacious for cleansing the skin or hair, yet provide good skin conditioning. I. THE NON-EMULSIFIED PERSONAL CLEANSING COMPOSITIONS The term "non-emulsified personal cleansing composition" as used herein means a composition suitable for application to the human skin or hair for the purpose of removing dirt, make-up, oil and the like, which incorporates both insoluble and water-soluble ingredients, but which does not exhibit separate oil and water phases in the composition at 25°C. The personal care products of the present invention comprise the following essential components. A. CLEANSING COMPONENT The term "cleansing component" used herein means a set of ingredients, which are generally , but not necessarily water soluble, added to the compositions of the present invention for the purpose of cleaning dirt, oil, make-up and the like or for the purpose of adding lather benefits of the composition. The products of the present invention comprise from about 35% to about 99.9%, preferably from about 50% to about 99%, more preferably from about 60% to about 98%, and even more preferably from about 70 to about 97%, based on the weight of the personal cleansing composition, of the cleansing component. The cleansing component of the personal cleansing compositions of the present invention comprise a lathering surfactant and water. 1. LATHERING SURFACTANT The non-emulsified personal cleansing compositions of the present invention comprise from about 5% to about 74.5%, preferably from about 7 5% to about 50%, and more preferably from about 10% to about 25%, based on the weight of the personal cleansing composition, of a lathering surfactant. By a "lathering surfactant" it is eani a surfactant, which when combined with water and mechanically agitated generates a foam or lather Preferably, these surfactants should be mild, which means that these surfactants provide sufficient cleansing or detersive benefits but do not overly dry the skin or hair, and yet meet the lathering cπtcπa described above. A lathering surfactant is further defined herein as a synthetic surfactant or mixture of surfactants which has an equilibrium surface tension of between 15 and 50 dynes/centimeter, more preferably between 20 and 45 dynes/centimeter as measured at the critical miscelle concentration at 25 C°. Some surfactant mixtures can have a surface tension lower than any of its components. The term "mild" as used herein in reference to the lathering surfactants and products of the present invention means that the products of the present invention demonstrate skin mildness comparable to a mild alkyl glyceryl ether sulfonate (AGS) surfactant based synthetic bar, i.e. synbar. Methods for measuring mildness, or inversely the irritancy, of surfactant containing products, are based on a skin barrier destruction test. In this test, the milder the surfactant, the lesser the skin barrier is destroyed. Skin barrier destruction is measured by the relative amount of radio-labeled (tritium labeled) water (3H-H2O) which passes from the test solution through the skin epidermis into the physiological buffer contained in the diffusate chamber. This test is described by T.J. Franz in the J. Invest. Dermatol.. 1975, 64, pp. 190-195; and in U.S. Patent No. 4,673,525, to Small et al., issued June 16, 1987, which are both incorporated by reference herein in their entirety.

INSOLUBLE SKIN CONDITIONING SOLIDS Nonlimiting examples of conditioning agents useful as insoluble skin conditioning solids include various solid polyol carboxylic acid esters, including C1-C30 monoesters and polyesters of sugars and related materials. These solid polyol carboxylic acid esters are derived from a sugar or polyol moiety and one or more carboxylic acid moieties. Examples of solid esters include: sorbitol hexaester in which the carboxylic acid ester moieties are palmitoleate and arachidate in a 1:2 molar ratio; the octaester of raffinose in which the carboxylic acid ester moieties are linoleate and behenate in a 1:3 molar ratio; the heptaester of maltose wherein the esterifying carboxylic acid moieties are sunflower seed oil fatty acids and lignocerate in a 3:4 molar ratio; the octaester of sucrose wherein the esterifying carboxylic acid moieties are oleate and behenate in a 2:6 molar ratio; and the octaester of sucrose wherein the esterifying carboxylic acid moieties are laurate, linoleate and behenate in a 1:3:4 molar ratio. A preferred solid material is sucrose polyester in which the degree of esterification is 7-8, and in which the fatty acid moieties are Ci g mono- and/or di-unsaturated and behenic, in a molar ratio of unsaturates:behenic of 1:7 to 3:5. A particularly preferred solid sugar polyester is the octaester of sucrose in which there are about 7 behenic fatty acid moieties and about 1 oleic acid moiety in the molecule. The ester materials are further described in, U.S. Patent No. 2,831,854, U.S. Patent No. 4,005,196, to Jandacek, issued January 25, 1977; U.S. Patent No. 4,005,195, to Jandacek, issued January 25, 1977, U.S. Patent No. 5,306,516, to Letton et al., issued April 26, 1994; U.S. Patent No. 5,306,515, to Letton et al., issued April 26, 1994; U.S. Patent No. 5,305,514, to Letton et al., issued April 26, 1994; U.S. Patent No. 4,797.300, to Jandacek et al., issued January 10, 1989; U.S. Patent No. 3,963,699, to Rizzi et al, issued June 15, 1976; U.S. Patent No. 4,518,772, to Volpenhein, issued May 21, 1985; and U.S. Patent No. 4,517,360, to Volpenhein, issued May 21, 1985; all previously incorporated by reference herein. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the skin conditioning component comprises a combination of insoluble skin conditioning oils and insoluble skin conditioning solids. In an especially preferred embodiment of the present invention the skin conditioning component comprises a combination of insoluble skin conditioning oil and solid carboxylic acid ester as the insoluble skin conditioning solid. The weight ratio of solid polyol carboxylic acid ester to insoluble skin conditioning oil is from about 20:80 to about 100:0 preferably 30:70 to about 99:1, more preferably from about 35:65 to about 90: 10. and even more preferably from about 35:65 to about 60:40. Not being limited by theory, it is believed that the insoluble skin conditioning solid adsorbs the insoluble skin conditioning oil to a point where the surfactant molecules do not chemically respond to the oil. Therefore, no surfactant molecules arc tied up attempting to emulsify the oils and no change in interfacial tension occurs. The combination of insoluble skin conditioning oil and solid remains dispersed in the cleansing component and can be efficiently deposited on the skin or hair upon application. C.
