Claim 1
Independent Claim
67 words
A method of simultaneously absorbing water or aqueous body fluids from the human skin while imparting to the skin an emollient effect by wiping the skin with a web of cellulosic fibers treated with an emollient composition consisting essentially of a water-soluble emollient, said emollient comprising a triquaternary phospholipid complex derived from a fatty acid in an amount from 0.1 to 2% by weight of the web.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
67 words
A method of simultaneously absorbing water or aqueous body fluids from the human skin while imparting to the skin an emollient effect by wiping the skin with a web of cellulosic fibers treated with an emollient composition consisting essentially of a water-soluble emollient, said emollient comprising a triquaternary phospholipid complex derived from a fatty acid in an amount from 0.1 to 2% by weight of the web.
