A liquid cleansing composition contains water 30 to 90 wt% fatty acids and a mixture of 5 to 25% by weight, said fatty acid mixture, than the sum of the total surfactant of soap other than that present in the composition I to provide a composition which is present in many mass. Moreover, 9 of the fatty acid mixtures is 70 to 95 mass%, the relative weight ratio, based on the weight of the fatty acid mixture: 1 to 1: myristic fatty acids lauric and two fatty acids, and C 16 ~ 5 to 30% by weight is 20 fatty acid C. Furthermore, form a fatty acid soap mixture 60~90mol% is neutralized.液体クレンジング組成物であって、5~25質量%の脂肪酸混合物及び30~90質量%の水を含み、前記脂肪酸混合物が、この組成物中に存在する石鹸以外の全界面活性剤の合計よりも多い質量で存在する組成物を提供する。さらに、前記脂肪酸混合物は、この脂肪酸混合物の質量に基づいて70~95質量%の、相対質量比が9:1~1:2のラウリン脂肪酸及びミリスチン脂肪酸、及び5~30質量%のC16~C20脂肪酸である。さらにまた、60~90mol%の脂肪酸混合物が中和されて石鹸を成す。
