At least some of the filaments possess at least one functional characteristic selected from the group consisting of filament's structure, composition, cross-sectional shape, tip geometry, and any combination thereof. A plurality of filament tips comprises a working surface that includes at least a first color and a second color different from the first color.

Abstract: A lighted dispenser having a light housing comprising a power source and source of light conductively connected to the power source and a treatment composition reservoir operatively connected to the light housing, the reservoir having a dispensing outlet wherein the lighted dispenser is sized and dimensioned to fit within an interior portion of a washing appliance.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and apparatuses for assembling disposable pant diapers having contoured elastic belts. During the assembly process, opposing end regions of chassis are connected with the elastic belts in the form of first and second continuous elastic laminates. The chassis are then folded to place the elastic laminates into a facing relationship. The inner longitudinal edges of one or both the elastic laminates are then cut to define a contoured shape. Discrete pieces of trim material may be removed from one or both the elastic laminates, and the first and second continuous elastic laminates are cut in the cross direction to form discrete pant diapers. In some configurations, a single knife both removes the trim material and cuts the elastic laminates in cross direction. And in some configurations, a first knife removes the trim material and a second knife cuts the elastic laminates in cross direction.

Abstract: A tooth-whitening process includes providing an array of LEDs disposed in a first plane and forming an inner arc having an inner focal point and an outer arc having an outer focal different from the inner focal point; applying a whitening composition to at least the anterior surfaces of at least six mandibular or maxillary anterior teeth and maintaining the whitening composition on the at least six teeth for a first time period; after the first time period, directing a light radiation comprising blue visible light or near-visible UV light of at least a threshold intensity from the least a first array of LEDs for a second time period to the anterior surfaces of the at least six teeth, the first time period having a duration greater than 50% of a total duration of the first time period and the second time period; and removing the whitening composition from the at least six teeth.

Abstract: Microfibrillated cellulose, derived from vegetables or wood, can be used to provide a liquid composition which is compatible with a broad range of ingredients suitable for consumer applications, including enzymes, while still providing good structuring of the liquid composition, without affecting ease of pour.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to narrow range alcohol alkoxylates and derivatives thereof, such as alkyl ether sulfates.

Abstract: A stable liquid composition in a clear bottle where the composition contains, at least, phenylephrine and acetaminophen. The composition is substantially free of aldehydes and has a pH from 3.5 to 5. The clear bottle is a polyethylene terphthalate bottle.

Abstract: An array of disposable absorbent articles comprising a sequence of graphic designs corresponding to a wearer's stage of development.

Abstract: Fibrous structures that exhibit a Geometric Mean Modulus (GM Modulus) of less than 1402.4 g/cm at 15 g/cm as measured according to the Modulus Test Method described herein and a Geometric Mean Elongation (GM Elongation or GM Elong) of less than 10.2% measured according to the Elongation Test Method described herein are provided.

Abstract: A self-structuring surfactant system. A stable liquid detergent composition containing the same. A liquid detergent composition that includes a linear alkyl benzene sulfonate and a branched nonionic surfactant that is a branched alkoxylated alkyl alcohol.

Abstract: An array of at least two commonly-branded absorbent articles, such as wipes products. The array includes a first wipes product and a second wipes product. Each wipes product may appeal to a different type of consumer, such as a light experience seeking consumer and a heavy experience seeking consumer. The first wipes product may include a first supply of wipes formed from a first substrate. The first supply of wipes is moistened with a first functional lotion composition including a first fragrance accord and a first lotion formula. The second wipes product may include a second supply of wipes formed from a second substrate. The second supply of wipes is moistened with a second functional lotion composition including a second fragrance accord and a second lotion formula. The second fragrance accord is different from the first fragrance accord, and the second lotion formula is different from the first lotion formula.

Abstract: Consumer product compositions comprising hydrophobically modified urea ethers.

Abstract: An absorbent article having a longitudinal centerline, a front region, a crotch region, and a back region. The absorbent article has a main portion, a side portion, and a waist portion. The waist portion has a belt portion that has a front belt portion having elastomeric material and a back belt portion having elastomeric material. The front belt portion has a first elastic section and a second elastic section, each section having force zones. The back belt portion has a third elastic section and a fourth elastic section, each section having force zones. The force zones in the portions alternate between a high force zone and a low force zone in at least one belt portion.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods for manufacturing absorbent articles, and in particular, methods for making pre-fastened refastenable pant diapers. Aspects of the methods according to the present disclosure relate to the fabrication of refastenable pant diapers wherein discrete chassis are advanced in a machine direction such that the lateral axis is parallel with the machine direction. First side panels are then refastenably connected with the first waist region, and second side panels are permanently connected the second waist regions of the discrete chassis. The chassis are connected with discrete lengths of side panel material and/or connection zone material. The chassis are then folded, and the first and second side panels are subsequently bonded together. The article is then subjected to knife cut at or adjacent the bonded regions to create discrete, pre-fastened refastenable pant diapers.

Abstract: A stable liquid detergent composition containing a self-structuring surfactant system, where without using external structurants, the liquid detergent composition exhibits good shear thinning properties while maintaining stability under high shear. A liquid detergent composition that includes a linear alkyl benzene sulfonate, an amine oxide surfactant and little or no alkoxylated alkyl sulfate and unalkoxylated alkyl sulfate.

Abstract: The invention relates to a molded article with a body having a top and a bottom; an opening proximal to the top; and a handle integrally located on at least one side of the body and positioned between the top and the bottom. The handle having at least one innermost surface, one external surface and at least one transition surface positioned between the innermost surface and the external surface, the handle forming at least one semi-enclosed recess positioned between the external surface and the body.
