Abstract: The invention relates to a lubricating member for a razor cartridge having a lubricating member comprising a carboxymethyl cellulose.

Abstract: This invention relates to a novel application of liquid-infused surface materials (LISM) to at least a portion of one or more surfaces of razor components (e.g., frame, housing, clips, blade supports, blade body, blade edge, lubricating bodies, guard, handle, grip, button). If applied to a skin contacting surface of a component, the one or more LISM layers may generally be abrasion-resistant, long-lasting or non-erodible, desirably elevating shaving performance, such as glide, comfort, rinsing, and cleanliness, while also simplifying the manufacturing process.

Abstract: A shaving aid including a lubricant and an antioxidant in accordance with general formula (I). Also provided is shaving aid including a lubricant and an antioxidant in accordance with general formula (I), in which the lubricant includes a water soluble polymer with an initial molecular weight of at least 1,000,000 g/mol. The water soluble polymer exhibits a molecular weight loss of less than 500,000 g/mol within a predefined time period.

Abstract: A shaving aid including a lubricant and a benefit agent. The benefit agent is azoxystrobin. Also provided is hair removal device with a shaving aid and the shaving aid includes azoxystrobin. The shaving aid may be on-board the hair removal device or provided separately. The shaving aid may be a solid or a liquid.

Abstract: The invention relates to a lubricating member for a razor cartridge having a lubricating member comprising a carboxymethyl cellulose.

Abstract: The invention relates to liquid compositions for use with hair removal devices comprising a methathesized unsaturated polyol ester for improved lubrication.

Abstract: A cartridge including a housing, at least one blade having a blade tip, and a shaving aid positioned on said housing and having a skin contacting portion. The shaving aid includes a co-axial filament having a diameter of from about 0 nm to about 1000 nm and has a core and a sheath. Also disclosed is a method of making a shaving aid for use on a razor including: extruding a shaving aid through a die to form an extruded shaving aid, in which the shaving aid has a skin contacting surface; and electrospinning at least two components to form a co-axial nano-filament onto a portion of the skin contacting surface to form a coated shaving aid, in which the two components are immiscible.

Abstract: The invention relates to a lubricating member for a razor cartridge comprising a lipophilic structurant and a silicone polyether block copolymer and optionally a liquid phase, which can be manufactured in a simple one batch process without thermal degradation and exhibiting improved lubricating and skin care properties over a sustained period.

Abstract: The invention relates to a lubricating member for a razor cartridge comprising a lipid phase comprising a lipophilic structurant and a liquid phase, wherein said liquid phase has a melting point below 45° C. and a water soluble polymer or mixture thereof which can be manufactured in a simple one batch process without thermal degradation and exhibiting improved lubricating and skin care properties over a sustained period.

Abstract: A shaving aid member comprising a lubricating material, the lubricating material comprising a water soluble polymer having an average molecular weight of at least 5,000, and a copolymer of polyethylene oxide and polypropylene oxide.

Abstract: There is provided an article comprising, a substrate having a charged surface; and a polymer layer on said substrate surface; wherein said polymer layer comprises, a crosslinked sublayer comprising charged moieties having a charge opposite to that of said charged surface; and a supra-layer comprising polymer chains grafted from the sublayer and extending away from said substrate surface. Preferably the polymer chains are polymer brushes.
