A soap bar comprises 40-85 % soap, 1-40 % water immiscible benefit agent, 1-40 % solid water soluble carrier and 5-25 % water. The carrier is initially mixed with the benefit agent to form a premix which is subsequently dispersed into the soap. Suitable benefit agents are oils and humectants whereas suitable carriers are starches, modified starches and water soluble solid polymers. |
