A process for forming a non-lathering personal care article in the form of a porous dissolvable solid structure, wherein said process comprises the steps of: (a) preparing a pre-mix comprising surfactant, dissolved polymer structurant, and optionally plasticizer, wherein said pre-mix has: (i) from 15% to 40% total solids; and (ii) a viscosity of from 2,500 cps to 30,000 cps; (b) aerating said pre-mix by introducing a gas into the pre-mix to form a wet aerated pre-mix; (c) forming the wet aerated pre-mix into a desired one or more shapes to form shaped wet pre-mix; and (d) drying the shaped wet pre-mix to a desired final moisture content, wherein the final moisture content is from 0.1% to 15% moisture, to form the non-lathering personal care article.
