Abstract

The present invention relates to liquid, lotion-like aqueous oil-in-water dispersion compositions including emulsions containing large amounts of oil or oil/wax mixtures, a volatile organic foam-producing liquid and an anionic surface active agent or detergent which increases the solubility of the foam-producing liquid in the oil or oil/wax mixture. The present compositions are dispersions including mixtures which do not foam or self-dispense from a non-pressurized container, and can be poured onto a surface and spread to form a thin coating which will foam and dry under ambient conditions to leave a residue of the oil or oil/wax mixture for cosmetic, medicinal, aesthetic, protective or other purposes.
