Abstract: The present invention relates to a skin treatment sheet comprising a substrate with a plurality of apertures wherein the sheet has a first surface and an opposing second surface. The apertures have a first and second inner perimeter and a cutting edge along at least a portion of the first inner perimeter. The skin treatment sheet has a stability ST which is the ratio of the average cross-sectional substrate area Ax and the total aperture area A1. Moreover, the present invention also relates to a skin treatment device comprising this skin treatment sheet.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a skin treatment sheet including a substrate with a plurality of apertures wherein the apertures have a first and second inner perimeter and a cutting edge along at least a portion of the first inner perimeter. The skin treatment sheet has a total cutting length which is the total length of all portions of the first perimeter in each aperture that contain a cutting edge and a total aperture area wherein the ratio of total aperture area to total cutting length is in a predefined range from 0.08 to 2.0 mm. Moreover, the present invention also relates to a skin treatment device including this skin treatment sheet.

Abstract: This invention relates to a novel personal care product having a flat treatment sheet having an upper surface and a perimeter area on the upper surface, a frame member having an underside surface and at least one tab, wherein the frame member is disposed over the perimeter area of the flat treatment sheet and the underside surface of the frame member is coplanar with the upper surface of the flat treatment sheet and the at least one tab extends below the lower surface of the treatment sheet. An upper product end of the personal care product includes a housing having at least one housing window. The at least one tab of the frame member is bent into the housing window. The frame member includes a flat or chamfered upper surface. The flat treatment sheet treats skin, removes hair, or a combination thereof.

Abstract: The invention relates to a shaving razor. The shaving razor includes a handle having an elongated body having a proximal end and an opposing distal end. The proximal end has a cartridge connection mechanism and a razor cartridge connected to the cartridge connection mechanism. The elongated body has a first section nearest the proximal end and a second section nearest the distal end and a movement member connecting the first section to the second section. The movement member includes a unitary member having a central core extending along a longitudinal axis. A plurality of spaced apart projections extend outward from the central core and perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the central core. Adjacent projections are spaced apart from one another to form open slots between adjacent projections.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for measuring the cutting force on a single fiber. The method includes the steps of: providing a blade having an edge; providing a fiber mount for holding the single fiber; providing at least one sensor connected to the fiber mount; providing a fiber sleeve to contain a fiber within the fiber mount to simulate the location of the hair within the hair follicle; moving the blade toward the fiber and cutting the fiber; and measuring the cutting force on the fiber with the at least one sensor.
