  • Patent number: 11058904
    Abstract: A composition in which the volatile silicone is partially or fully replaced by a plant oil. The plant oil containing composition is parity or better than the volatile silicone containing material but at lower cost. One example comprises a mixing product of at least one material chosen from antiperspirant actives and deodorant actives; greater than 10 weight % of a plant oil: and less than 40 weight % of a volatile silicone oil. Another examples comprises a mixing product of greater than 10 weight % of a plant oil; a gellant for the composition; and less than 40 weight % of a volatile silicone oil, wherein the composition does not contain an antiperspirant active or deodorant active.

  • Patent number: 9423801
    Abstract: A continuous system for manufacturing a composition that contains an active ingredient that includes a base manufacturing portion and an addition portion. The system can manufacture compositions having different levels of the active ingredient. A base is formed that contains a first level of the active ingredient that is desired for any composition to be manufactured. The addition portion can be used to add more of the materials for the composition to lower the level of the active ingredient, or more active ingredient can be added to increase the level of the active ingredient. The system is controlled by a sensor that measures an amount of associated material that is associated with the active ingredient. This is useful when the active ingredient is not detectable by the sensor.

  • Publication number: 20130295029
    Abstract: Disclosed is a package for a personal care composition, the package comprising a container containing a personal care composition, the container having a base comprising a base face for standing the package on a planar surface, and a cap removably connected to and covering a dispensing end of the container opposite to the base. The cap has an end face which is inclined to the base face, and the container and cap are shaped to permit the package, independent of the amount of the personal care composition contained within the container, selectively to be stood on the base face in an upright orientation on the planar surface or on the end face in an inverted orientation on the planar surface.
