Abstract
Abstract A solid soap composition with from about 94% to about 99% by weight of a soap base and from about 6% to about 1% by weight of a water-insoluble silicone having a viscosity of from about 40,000 to 120,000 cP cleans and conditions hair and skin to provide softer, smoother hair and skin. The composition may be in the form of a soap bar.
