The colloidal solution in which both the dispersed phase and dispersion medium are liquids is called an emulsion.

There are two types of emulsions:

(a) Oil in water type: Here, oil is the dispersed phase while water is the dispersion medium.

For example: milk, vanishing cream, etc.

(b) Water in oil type: Here, water is the dispersed phase while oil is the dispersion medium.

For example: cold cream, butter, etc.
