Abstract: The removable sampler attaches to a card and then separates from the card after a journey through the mail. The removable sampler has a backer with one or more glue strips, and a sampler with one or more perforations and one or more tabs upon the glue strips but detaching from the perforation. Upon lifting, the sampler separates and detaches along the perforations. A tab remains behind in a magazine or a mail piece to meet postal regulations. The removable sampler uses permanent adhesive to affix the tabs to the backer. The sampler may include foil and no-foil structure packets, flow wraps, three sided and four sided seal pouches, and cosmetic or fragrance sampling items.

Abstract: The fragrance slurry pad receives a fragrance in slurry and prints the slurry into a recognizable logo, brand, or word upon a strip. To enhance the marketing impact of fragrance strip advertising and to differentiate among marketers without increase in cost, the present invention is fragrance slurry deposition pads that support and reinforce a marketing message. The preferred embodiment has a brand name, logo, or message etched into a flexographic print pad. The print pad applies the slurry to a strip located beneath a flap. Upon opening the flap, the fragrance slurry appears in a discernible pattern and visible message.

Abstract: The applicator for cosmetic products, or lipstick, is a double ply card with an embossed pattern that retains a sample of cosmetic, primarily lipstick. The pattern includes projections from a top ply and a bottom ply opposite the top ply. The pattern shears lipstick from a source onto the applicator. Additionally, the sample can be deposited onto the top ply similar to printing. This applicator also has the cosmetic sample retained within projections upon the top ply that separates from the bottom ply affixed to a card or magazine page. In use a woman folds the applicator, moves it to her mouth, and transfers the sample to her lips.

Abstract: The applicator for cosmetics has one or more plies with scoring to form a handle area and a sample area. The scoring upon the top ply guides the applicator to bend into a handle area grasped by a woman's fingers and the sample area has a slight bow to apply eye shadow or other powdered cosmetic as the woman sees fit. The sample area has embossing in the bottom ply to retain pre-deposited cosmetics for further sampling.

Abstract: The fragrant gel polymer system is a process where a complete fragrance formulation remains whole and is then blended with either a polymer or a cross-linking agent. The non-fragrance carrying polymer is then liquefied and made homogenous with a solvent. The solvents modify viscosity and ease the mixing of the non-fragrance carrying polymer with the fragrance carrying polymer. The method also provides surfactants and wetting agents for further integration and mixing of the fragrance oils with either the polymer or the cross-linking agent during the steps of the process. Mixing of the fragrance carrying polymer and the non-fragrance polymer results in a gel that sets in less time and with less syneresis than existing processes.

Abstract: The product for liquid delivery fragrance samples lacks a liquid tight and a vapor tight, perimeter glue band or heat seal. The product comes from easily produced, in-line manufacturing of a commercially printable paper which has an applied barrier coating to defeat permeation by the liquid fragrance material. The product has a substantially irregular, or textured, fragrance sample material mounting and application surface that creates an occlusive, cohesive seal between the substrate layers when fragrance materials are applied. The opposing, textured substrates of the product are in close proximity where the textured surfaces defeat the capillary action of the fragrance sample, and thereby occlude the migration of the fragrance sample out from the product. Also, the inability of the fragrance to flow in conjunction with its inherent surface tension makes the fragrance sample substantially repose within the texture of the barrier coating.

Abstract: The applicator for cosmetic products, or lipstick, is a double ply card with an embossed pattern in the top ply that retains a sample of cosmetic, primarily lipstick. The pattern includes projections from a top ply and a planar bottom ply opposite the top ply. The sample can be deposited onto the top ply similar to printing. This applicator also has the cosmetic sample retained within projections upon the top ply that separates from the bottom ply affixed to a card or magazine page. In use a machine lifts the bottom ply from the release liner and places the bottom ply upon a mailer and then a consumer removes the top ply from the bottom ply for testing the sample as desired.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a device sized for insertion into an inner tube of a roll of paper towels or toilet paper comprising a insert card absorb a fragrance and which is bendable, the insert allowing fragrance to emit by evaporation from the insert into the air and an outer packaging for containing the insert card, the packaging being a substantially impervious moisture and odor barrier.

Abstract: A framed freshener provides a thermal formed cavity, or thermoplastic shell, carrying scented gel that fits into a picture frame. The present invention locates a fragrant gel in a thermal formed cavity or thermoplastic shell or container which is then placed within a suitably designed picture frame. Coupling a fragrance with a photo in a frame, the present invention seeks to foster memories in those who view the frame. Additionally, the shell carrying gel makes the frame a decorative air freshening device. The picture frame and the opening for the fragrance container can be die cut to any shape. An alternate embodiment has the shell supported in a wire frame upon a base.

Abstract: A fragrance sampler is provided which is made from two plies, a bottom ply and a top ply, of material. A cosmetic, such as a wet fragrance, sample is deposited on the bottom ply. A well is formed in at least one of the plies and is sized and shaped to surround the sample. The two plies are then adhered together to form a liquid tight seal between the two plies and around the well.

Abstract: This applicator for cosmetic products, or lipstick, is a single or multiple ply card with an embossed pattern that retains a sample of lipstick from a separate container. The pattern shears lipstick from a tube onto the applicator. Also, the pattern assists a consumer in placing the cosmetic upon the applicator. In use, a woman selects a lipstick and moves the applicator, with the raised pattern, or field, down, across the lipstick source. The lipstick collects between the embossing of the raised field. A woman folds the applicator, moves it to her mouth, and transfers the sample to her lips. Following use, a woman reverse folds the applicator and encloses the raised field and sample residue for disposal.

Abstract: A fragrance sampler is provided which is made from a bottom ply and a top ply of material and an applicator. A cosmetic sample, such as a wet fragrance, is deposited on the bottom ply. An absorbent applicator attaches to the top ply. The applicator collects a portion from the sample and then applies the portion for testing. A well is formed in at least one of the plies and is sized and shaped to surround the sample. An applicator joins to the other ply and fits within the well. The two plies are then adhered together to form a liquid tight seal between the plies and around the well.
