Patent ID: 7485316

Claim:
A wet-skin treatment composition comprising: a) an aqueous phase comprising water and a dispersion stabilizer capable of forming a network in the aqueous phase that immobilizes a dispersed structured oil phase; wherein said dispersion stabilizer comprises: i) about 0.45% to about 0.5% by wt. acrylate polymer; ii) from about 0.05 to about 0.3% by wt. at least one carbohydrate gum selected from the group consisting of xanthan gum, gum Arabic, guar gum and mixtures thereof; and iii) about 0.1% by wt. preservative wherein ratio of acrylate to gum is 1:1 to 10:1; and b) a structured oil phase comprising: i) about 11% by wt. emollient oil, ii) 0.75 to 3 % by wt. trihydroxystearin; iii) about 0.01-45% of dispersed phase based on total structured oil phase, wherein said oil phase is dispersed in said aqueous phase to form an oil-in-water emulsion having a weight average oil droplet size of 5 to 1000 microns.
