Abstract: A composition and method is disclosed for fluoridating teeth using a two component dentifrice system in which the first component is stable, semi-solid, extrudable dentifrice composition containing a fluoride ion releasable hydrolyzable complex fluoride compound such as sodium fluorosilicate, in an aqueous vehicle in which a carrageenan gum having major kappa and lambda forms as the primary thickening agent and the abrasive is a silica providing an acid pH when slurried with water, and the second component is a semi-solid, extrudable dentifrice composition containing a calcium ion releasable compound and the abrasive and carrageenan gum in an aqueous vehicle. The first and second dentifrice compounds are maintained separate from the other until mixed for application to teeth.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for fluoridating teeth using a two component dentifrice system in which the first component is stable, semi-solid, extrudable dentifrice composition containing a fluoride ion releasable hydrolyzable complex fluoride compound such as sodium fluorosilicate, in an aqueous vehicle in which xanthan gum is the major thickening agent and glycerin, sorbitol or mixtures thereof is the humectant, and the second component is a semi-solid, extrudable dentifrice composition containing a calcium ion releasable compound and an abrasive in an aqueous vehicle containing xanthan gum as the major thickener and glycerin, sorbitol or mixtures thereof as the humectant. The first and second dentifrice compounds are maintained separate from the other until mixed for application to teeth.

Abstract: A skin cleanser and conditioner composition and particularly a facial rinse that removes soap and surfactant residue from the skin and thereby prevents irritation caused by the deposition of soaps and surfactants thereon, consisting of low levels of a nonionic surfactant, low levels of an organic acid such as citric acid/sodium citrate, and a major amount of water, which composition may be in the form of a liquid or gel.

Abstract: A fabric rinse composition that removes residual soap and surfactant particularly anionic, left in the clothes during washing, which is disliked by consumers, consisting of low levels of a nonionic surfactant, low levels of an organic acid such as citric and/sodium citrate, and a major amount of water, in the form of a liquid or gel.
