  • Soap is used as a cleanser because of its ability to act as an emulsifying agent. 
  • An emulsifier is capable of separating one liquid into another immiscible liquid. This means that while oil (which attracts dirt) doesn't naturally mix with water, soap can suspend or separate oil/dirt from water in such a way that it can be removed hence soap emulsifies oil in water.

Hence option A is the correct answer.
