A skin cleansing composition comprising the following components (A), (B), and (C):
- (A) (a1) an alkenylsulfonic acid having 12 to 22 carbon atoms or its salt, (a2) an alkylsulfonic acid having 12 to 22 carbon atoms or its salt, or a mixture of them,
- wherein in component (A), (a1) comprises at least one alkenylsulfonic acid which is a straight-chain hydrocarbon having a double bond and 12 to 22 carbon atoms and containing a sulfo-group on any one of the carbon atoms excluding terminal carbon atoms or its salt, and
- wherein in component (A), (a2) comprises at least one hydroxyalkylsulfonic acid having 12 to 22 carbon atoms and containing a sulfo-group on any one of the carbon atoms excluding terminal carbon atoms or its salt;
- (B) an alkyl ether carboxylic acid represented by the following formula (1) or its salt:
- R1—O—(CH2CH2O)n—CH2—COOX (1)
- wherein R1 represents an alkyl group having 4 to 22 carbon atoms, n denotes a number from 0 to 20, X represents a hydrogen atom, an alkali metal, an alkali earth metal, ammonium, or organic ammonium, and n denotes a number of 0.5 or more and less than 4 on average;
- and
- (C) water.
