Abstract: A disposable applicator is disclosed for applying a composition to an exposed surface. The applicator includes a back sheet, a liquid permeable substrate secured to one surface of the back sheet, and a composition applied to the liquid permeable substrate. The composition is capable of being transferred to an exposed surface by wiping the liquid permeable substrate against the exposed surface. The applicator also has a seal formed on at least a portion of an inner surface of the back sheet. The back sheet is then folded upon itself such that the seal extends completely around the perimeter of the substrate and protects the composition.

Abstract: Methods of making, using and applying a composition to an exposed surface are disclosed using a disposable applicator. The method of making the disposable applicator includes forming a back sheet and a liquid permeable substrate. The substrate is secured to the back sheet and a composition is applied to the substrate. The composition is capable of being transferred onto an exposed surface by wiping the substrate against the exposed surface. A seal is formed on at least a portion of the back sheet. The back sheet is then folded upon itself such that the seal extends completely around the substrate to protect the composition. The methods of using and applying a composition to an exposed surface include breaking the seal and opening the back sheet, grasping the back sheet in one hand and wiping the substrate onto the exposed surface.

The at least one umbilical cover is moveable from a starting position to an anchored position upon tearing the at least one line of weakness. The diaper has at least one umbilical cover anchor adapted to maintain the at least one umbilical cover in the anchored position.
