Abstract: Fluoride varnish compositions for temporary application and adhesion to a person's teeth. The composition includes a carrier comprising a resin and an adhesion promoting agent comprising an alkyl phosphoric acid. A fluoride ion source (e.g., a fluoride salt such as sodium fluoride) is dispersed within the carrier so as to provide biologically available fluoride ions to the tooth tissue being treated. The composition adheres only temporarily to tooth tissue (e.g., for a period of at least about 4 minutes, but not more than about 1 year), after which the composition spontaneously wears away as a natural result of the action of the tongue, saliva and/or other factors.

Abstract: An antiperspirant composition for personal hygiene is formulated as a suspension which can be sprayed with or without a propellant, and contains at least one antiperspirant substance, 0-5 wt. % free water, based on the weight of the propellant-free composition, and triethylcitrate and at least one additional cosmetic oil, which is liquid under normal conditions, as a carrier. The weight fraction of the triethylcitrate with respect to the total amount of oils is between 13-50 wt. % based on the total weight of the propellant-free composition. The composition also includes and 0 to less than 1 wt. % cyclomethicone, based on the weight of the propellant-free composition.

Abstract: A wipe to stimulate a person. The wipe is permeated with a smelling salt solution. The smelling salt solution delivers an effective amount of ammonium gas to stimulate the respiratory system of the person. The smelling salt solution delivers an effective amount of alcohol to provide a cooling sensation on the skin. The wipe is contained in a container impermeably to prevent evaporation of the smelling salt solution and to delay transformation of the smelling salts solution to ammonium gas until the container may be opened by the person. Other embodiments and uses are disclosed.
