Abstract: A writing instrument according to the present disclosure comprises a main body, a writing tip and a cap, wherein the cap is designed to be secured tightly on the main body such that the writing tip is covered by the cap. The cap comprises of an inner core and an outer layer, wherein a material of the outer layer is softer compared to a material of the inner core. With that, it is possible to design an air-tight (or almost air-tight) fitting cap for a writing instrument. With the softer outer layer of the cap, it is achieved that a user chewing on the cap has a reduced risk of damaging his/her teeth. In addition, although a membrane within the cap may still be present, such membrane is no longer necessary. The membrane may be an additional barrier contributing further to the air-tight effect of the cap that is present within the cap.

Abstract: A sanitary sleeve comprising a body configured to be grasped by a hand of a user, the body extending from a first end toward a second end along an axis, the body including a plurality of layers configured to be removed one at a time, and the plurality of layers including at least a first layer and a second layer, and wherein removal of the first layer of the plurality of layers exposes the second layer of the plurality of layers.

Abstract: An applicator device for a product, said applicator device comprising a housing, a product carriage, for supporting the product, that is mobile within the housing between an extended state and a retracted position, and a retraction mechanism configured to move the product carriage into the retracted position after a predetermined period of time in the extended state. A glue stick comprising said applicator device and an adhesive product.

Abstract: A glue stick applicator comprising a casing receiving a glue stick, the glue stick being extendable through a mouth of the casing between a retracted position wherein the glue stick is entirely housed in the casing and an extended position wherein the glue stick extends at least in part from the mouth of the casing, and a grid fitted around the glue stick at least when the glue stick is in the extended position, the grid being made of a material having higher gluing capability than the material of the glue stick.

Abstract: A shaving system including a shaver handle and one or more sensors. The one or more sensors may be configured to detect a hand of a user on the handle and to generate one or more sensor signals. The system may also include a processor operably coupled to the one or more sensors and having at least one algorithm stored thereon for analyzing the one or more sensor signals to determine a grip of the user's hand on the handle. They system may further include an indicator operably coupled to the processor, and the indicator may be configured to provide at least one of feedback or a recommendation to the user based at least in part on the grip of the user during a shaving session.

Abstract: A shaving razor having a first handle to provide a first use configuration with the first handle operable to be secured to a second handle to provide a second use configuration of the shaving razor.
