The invention provides a personal cleansing composition having a pH ranging from 4.5 to 5.1 and comprising, in an aqueous continuous phase: (i) one or more anionic cleansing surfactants (ii) one or more dispersed benefit agents selected from hydrophobic emulsion droplets and particulate solids, and (iii) a structuring polymer selected from alkali swellable emulsion (ASE) polymers and hydrophobically modified alkali swellable emulsion (HASE) polymers characterized in that the one or more anionic cleansing surfactants are selected from alkyl ether sulphates of general formula (I): R—O—(CH2CH2—O)n—SO3−M+ in which R is a straight or branched chain alkyl group having 10 to 14 carbon atoms, n is a number that represents the degree of ethoxylation and ranges from 3 to 3.5, and M is an alkali metal, ammonium or alkanolammonium cation.
