Improved water soluble abradant skin cleanser is provided comprising in a non-oleaginous hydrous cream base a sparingly soluble relatively soft non-toxic non-irritating particulate salt, a non-irritating, non-toxic surfactant as a stable cream base, employing at least one derivative of sulfuric acid, e.g. sulfate ester salt or sulfonate and water. In a preferred embodiment, borax is combined with a substantial amount of an alkyleneoxy sulfate ester salt or tauride salt and a small amount of water. The cleanser aids in the treatment of oily skin, acne and scalp conditions. |
