Abstract: A refill cartridge and a bottle to contain the cartridge. The refill includes at least two sealed openings, one at the top and one at the bottom. They may be sealed by an in mold label. The bottle is suitable for including the cartridge and may also include a pump and a dip tube. The dip tube is used to pierce the top and bottom seals of the cartridge when the bottle closure is screwed onto the bottle. Piercing the bottom seal releases product into the water filled interior of the body of the bottle. Typically the product will be a concentrate such as a body wash or hand washing concentrate. The bottle preferably includes an aperture or window through which at least a portion of the cartridge can be seen so that the consumer can determine which variation of product is present in the refill in the bottle.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a hydratable concentrated surfactant composition. The composition is pourable, easy to dilute, substantially free of sulfate and oil, comprises a C6-C14 acid, alcohol or both, an anionic surfactant comprising acyl isethionate and an amphoteric surfactant, zwitterionic surfactant or both. The composition is in lamellar phase and thickens and transforms to an isotropic phase upon dilution. The composition can be used as a concentrate in small volumes and diluted as used and needed or can be diluted with water in refill packaging to ensure a reduction in plastic waste.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an isotropic concentrate composition that is easy to hydrate and transform into an end use wash composition. The end use wash composition resulting from the concentrate composition is suitable for topical application and for hand washing. The concentrate comprises fragrance oil and emulsifier at levels that unexpectedly result in a concentrate composition and end use composition that are free of ingredient precipitation that interferes with the appearance and usage of the compositions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a structurally stable frozen confection product comprising from two to eight frozen confection streams rippled in the longitudinal direction, wherein the frozen confection stream ripples form a longitudinal repeat unit comprising a ripple of each frozen confection stream and the frozen confection product comprises from three to eight repeat units and the longitudinal rotational axes of the ripples are spaced apart from each other. Furthermore, the invention relates to a process for the preparation of the structurally stable frozen confection product.

Abstract: A food composition in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion, comprising 66 to 87 wt % of vegetable oil, less than 1 wt % of microalgal oil, water, microalgal protein, and wherein the composition has a pH of from 2 to 4.8, and wherein the composition is free from egg-derived ingredients.

Abstract: A substrate treatment product comprising a package comprising at least one layer of fibrous or pulp material and at least one layer of a polymeric material selected from polylactic acid, polyhydroxyalkanoate, a polyester, polybutylenadipate terephthalate, a cellulose based material, a starch based material, a sugare cane based material and mixtures thereof, and the packaging containing a plurality of water-soluble capsules, each water-soluble capsule comprising a substrate treatment composition within a sealed compartment which is filled to at least 60% of the volume of the compartment, the package comprising (i) a receptable containing or more of said water soluble capsules and a closure; (ii) a child resistant closure mechanism comprising a first locking member on the receptacle and a second locking member present on the closure whereby the members interlock; wherein the substrate treatment composition has a viscosity in the range 200 mPa·s-2000 mPa·s at 25° C.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a foam precursor liquid and foam cleansing composition that comprise a cellulose ether and surfactant. The precursor liquid results in a foam with excellent lather characteristics upon dispensing from a pump foam dispenser, and the liquid does not thicken to impede or clog the dispenser it is dispensed from. The foam precursor liquid is easily pourable prior to dispensing and makes refilling and reusing pump foam dispensers very convenient for consumers conscious about using less plastic.

Abstract: The invention relates to stable, mild and moisturizing lamellar liquid cleansing compositions which possess a lotion-like appearance conveying signals of enhanced moisturization. However, these liquids often are either unstable or cause poor lather production and other sensory deficits The use of a specific ratio of total acyl isethionates to acyl glutamates or other divalent anionic surfactant in a structured liquid product improve stability and lather production, mildness and acceptable odor.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a composition suitable for topical application that comprises a naturally derived preservative having benzoic acid or a derivative thereof. The composition is stable when preserved with the naturally derived preservative and when at a pH that is above the natural pH of skin to as high as 7.25.

Abstract: The present invention is in the field of personal care compositions, in particular compositions comprising antiperspirant actives. The present invention more particularly relates to compositions which do not contain the conventional and well established aluminium based actives, yet exhibit similar efficacy. This is achieved through use of an active which is a complex of a zinc salt with a ? amino acid in an anhydrous carrier comprising a specific mixture of ethanol and a C2 to C4 glycol.
