When it comes into contact with water it self emulsifies into a white oil in water (O/W) emulsion which cleanses and then rinses off very well. It foams well even with a high oil content. When used as a bath oil, it not only cleanses but also leaves the skin feeling soft and moisturized, enhancing the overall bathing experience.
