PACKAGE FOR DISPENSING A COSMETIC COMPOSITION
(WO2003015569) 27.02.2003
A45D 34/04 UNILEVER PLC
A package based upon an air pump system (20) is provided for dispensing a
cosmetic composition. In one aspect, the package provides enhanced delivery of the
composition without affecting the stability of the composition. The pump system
(20) includes a bulb system (30) and an air chamber, such as a balloon element in
fluid communication therewith. Compression of the bulb system (30) transmits air
from the bulb system into the balloon to inflate the balloon, applying pressure to
the composition to extrude it through an exit orifice in the container (12). When
the bulb system (30) is de-compressed, some air returns from the balloon to the
bulb system, thereby releasing pressure on the composition.

GEL STICK ANTIPERSPIRANT COMPOSITIONS
(WO1991015191) 17.10.1991
A61K 8/49 THE PROCTER &GAMBLE COMPANY
Antiperspirant compositions in the form of gel sticks, which provide the
user with excellent antiperspirant efficacy while exhibiting good stability, are
disclosed. These compositions utilize particular gellling agents which are stable
under the acidic conditions required in antiperspirant compositions. Specifically,
the compositions have an acidic pH and include an antiperspirant active, a solvent
for the antiperspirant active, and a gelling agent which comprises dibenzylidene
alditols substituted on the benzene ring with an electron withdrawing group.
Examples of preferred gelling agents include di(meta-fluoro) dibenzylidene sorbitol
and di(meta-chloro) dibenzylidene sorbitol. The method of preventing and
controlling perspiration wetness ...
