Abstract
A single liquid phase detergent composition, such as a foam bath product, contains an alkyl monoglyceride as a skin benefit agent, an anionic detergent and water. In use, when diluted in water, the composition is capable of producing and maintaining a substantial head of foam and is capable of depositing on the skin, after immersion, a noticeable amount of the alkyl monoglyceride.
