Methods of stabilizing color in a composition, which methods comprise: (a) providing an amino-substituted hydroxybenzophenone compound corresponding to the general formula (I):

##STR00001##

and (b) combining the amino-substituted hydroxybenzophenone compound with a composition to be stabilized selected from the group consisting of cosmetic preparations and dermatological preparations, are described along with compositions containing an organic dye and an amino-substituted hydroxybenzophenone compound corresponding to the general formula (I).

Provided is a multi-layer self-adhesive gel suitable for use in cleaning, disinfecting, deodorizing, and/or scenting of toilets, sinks, wash-bowls, bathtubs, showers, and for delivery of shower gel or shampoo in the shower, bathtub or wash-bowl. The multi-layer self-adhesive gel has at least two different self-adhesive gel layers. One gel layer (A) includes at least one solvent (a1), at least one adhesion promoter (b1) which is different from (a1), and at least one surfactant (c1) which is different from (a1) and (b1). Another gel layer (B) includes at least one solvent (a2), at least one adhesion promoter (b2) which is different from (a2). When the multi-layer self-adhesive gel is applied onto a flat surface of a substrate, (A) and (B) together have a continuous, essentially even surface, remote from the surface of the substrate. Also provided are an applicator containing the multi-layer self-adhesive gel and methods of filling the applicator.
