Claim:
A liquid emulsion, consisting essentially of: a lipophilic phase comprising one or more lipophiles; a water phase, wherein when the water phase comprises ingredients in addition to the water in the water phase, the ingredients are present in an amount less than the amount of the water present in the water phase; the lipophile selected from the group consisting of glycerol monostearate, glycerol monooleate, glycerol monolaurate, propylene glycol monolaurate, propylene glycol monooleate, propylene glycol monostearate, sorbitanmonooleate, sorbitanmonostearate, diacetylatedmonoglyceride and vegetable oils; an effective amount of an emulsion stabilizer between 1% and 5% of the lipophile and said emulsion stabilizer is selected from the group consisting of polysorbate 80 and polysorbate 60; and a plasticizer; wherein said lipophile, plasticizer, and emulsion stabilizer are homogenized in waterto form micelles having an average particle size of about 10 microns to about 50 microns, and wherein the lipophile remains emulsified in the liquid emulsion for at least 3 months.
