The invention relates to articles useful in cleansing, and particularly to wet-like cleansing wipes that are especially useful for hard surface cleaning, and in personal cleansing such as baby wipes and particularly for removal of perianal soils. These articles comprise: a carrier; and an emulsion applied to the carrier. The emulsion comprises (1) from about 2 to about 60% of a continuous solidified lipid phase comprising a waxy lipid material having a melting point of about 30.degree. C. or higher, (2) from about 39 to about 97% of an internal polar (e.g., water) phase dispersed in the lipid phase; (3) an effective amount of a non-silicon containing emulsifier, where the emulsifier has a viscosity at 55.degree. C. of greater than about 500 centipoise; and (4) and an optional second emulsifier having a viscosity at 55.degree. C. of less than about 400 centipoise. Because the emulsion comprises a waxy external phase, the internal polar phase is retained in the emulsion until in-use shear pressures break the emulsion, thereby providing desired moisture for cleaning. The invention also relates to a process for making the cleaning articles.
