Summary:The present invention is directed to a clear, thickened detergent composition having superior clarity and spreadability, and methods for thickening such compositions. More specifically the present invention is directed to such compositions thickened with both a hydrophobically modified acrylic polymeric thickener and a polyol alkoxy ester thickener. The present invention is directed to detergent compositions that not only have superior viscosity, spreadability, and clarity properties but also do not cause significant irritation to the skin and eyes. More specifically, acrylic polymeric thickeners are combined with polyol glycol thickeners in order to achieve such properties in detergent compositions.
