Abstract
A stable, low viscosity bimodal oil in water emulsion having an emulsifier, a continuous water phase and a discontinuous oil phase having an oil:water ratio of from about 70:30 to about 85:15 by weight, the discontinuous oil phase being characterized by two distinct oil droplet sizes D.sub.L and D.sub.S wherein D.sub.L is about 10 to 40 microns and D.sub.S is less than or equal to 5 microns, the ratio of D.sub.L /D.sub.S is greater than or equal to 4 and about 45 to 85% by weight of the oil is in oil droplet size D.sub.L.
