A cleansing composition including water and a surfactant, the content of the surfactant in the cleansing composition being more than or equal to 0.4% by weight and less than or equal to 12% by weight, the viscosity of the cleansing composition at 30° C. being more than or equal to 5 mPa·s and less than or equal to 1500 mPa·s, the foam viscosity of foam at 30° C. at 10 seconds after the foam is generated by mixing the cleansing composition with air being more than or equal to 40 mPa·s and less than or equal to 100 mPa·s, and the average diameter of bubbles included in the foam at 30 seconds after the foam is generated by mixing the cleansing composition with air being more than or equal to 10 μm and less than or equal to 100 μm.
