The invention discloses a method for improving the viscosity stability of water-in-oil type cream. According to the method for improving the viscosity stability of the water-in-oil type cream, a hydrophilic montmorillonite modifier and an oleophylic organic clay modifier are added into the water-in-oil type cream, wherein the use amount of the montmorillonite modifier accounts for 0.01-5% of the total mass of the water-in-oil type cream, and the use amount of the organic clay modifier accounts for 0.01-5% of the total mass of the water-in-oil type cream. Compared with the prior art, the method provided by the invention for improving the viscosity stability of the water-in-oil type cream can remarkably improve the viscosity stability of the water-in-oil type cream by adding the hydrophilic montmorillonite modifier and the oleophylic organic clay modifier into the water-in-oil type cream; the prepared cream is stable in performance and good in rheological property.
