Abstract: Spray compositions and particularly anhydrous aerosol compositions containing particulate antiperspirant actives exhibit a tendency for nozzle blockage, impeding discharge of the contents when a polyol humectant, such as glycerol, is blended into its base composition. The problem is overcome or at least ameliorated by preparation of a base composition, suitable for employment in conjunction with a propellant, that contains a low molecular weight (liquid) polyethylene glycol (PEG) as humectant, and particularly a PEG of molecular weight 150 to 500.

Abstract: A hair treatment composition comprising a trichogenic material and an anti-dandruff agent.

Abstract: A disposable yard waste bag with integrated funnel is a biodegradable paper bag for yard waste with a tubular base, a funnel portion, a pair of handles, and an adhesive liner. The funnel portion is connected to the open end of the tubular base and is flared outward from the tubular base for easy loading of yard waste into the bag. The adhesive pull-and-stick liner at the top of the funnel portion allows the user to seal the funnel portion after filling the bag. The pair of handles is positioned on the tubular base for convenient carrying and handling purposes.
