The improved cleaning brush is made of a durable plastic material which is basically tubular in shape, measures approximately eighteen inches (18″) in length and three inches (3″) in circumference. Located at the top of the elongated handle would be a screw-on lid, which would serve to cover the hollowed interior of the tube where a cleaning liquid would be housed. Liquid cleaner contained within this receptacle would be channeled through the brush and dispensed through a small spray nozzle located directly above the brush head while in use. A finger activated trigger would be positioned on the promixal end of the handle, thus enabling the user to easily control the amount of spray dispensed. The improved cleaning brush is also packaged with a practical caddy receptacle to provide sanitary housing for the brush between cleanings.

A one-way valve adapted to be provided in a pressable container from which material is ejected wherein the valve includes: two adjacent tongues extending from a circumference of the pressable container, wherein the two adjacent tongues have two states: a first state wherein the tongues are not folded on a fold line, thereby the material passes between the tongues; and a second state wherein the tongues are folded on the fold line and prevent passage of material through them; and an opening, for ejecting the material therethrough at the first state, wherein the opening is disposed above the fold line at the first state, and below the fold line at the second state.

One or more oral care implements are described. The oral care implement includes an outer member, an inner member positioned within at least a portion of the outer member, and a cleaning element extending from the outer member. Also provided herein are one or more related methods.

Embodiments of hair care apparatus and methods are provided generally comprising a location to provision hair care product, an applicator and a manipulator configured to enable concurrent product application and hair manipulation, and may comprise a product heater, configured to heat product provisioned therein, or be configured for use with an external heating source such as a microwave oven, and provide application of heated product at temperatures both safe for hair health and enhanced absorption. Apparatus may comprise a source of pressure, such as a pump or piston, to generate hair product flow through an applicator, and may be configured to receive product in user fillable or prepackaged product cartridges usable in the apparatus, a product chamber within the apparatus or a removable product reservoir useable in the apparatus. An apparatus may further be configured to support a plurality of manipulators, active applicators and passive applicators.

A system for the application of mascara to both eyes using the dominant hand. The system has a container and an applicator. The applicator is used to transfer mascara from the container to the eyes. The applicator has a handle, a brush head and a rod. The handle progresses along an imaginary midline and supports the brush head in line with, or parallel to, the midline. The rod has at least one offset section. The rod is long enough to enable a person to position the brush head in front of the left eye from the right side of the head, or in front of the right eye from the left side of the head. The offset section of the rod prevents the applicator from blocking the vision from a near eye when applying mascara across the face to a far eye.

A paint container includes a brush attached to the container. The brush is in fluid communication with the interior of the container to receive paint through passages reaching into the interior of the container. A container cap is attachable over the brush to prevent paint on the brush from drying out between use. The container includes a diaphragm in at least one side allowing a user to create pressure inside the container to urge paint into the brush. One example of suitable paint is water based paint.

An oral cleaning device includes an elongated, hollow body, a cleaning head, and a neck portion extending between the hollow body and the cleaning head. The neck portion forms a fluid channel between the hollow body and the cleaning head and the cleaning head includes at least one opening in fluid communication with the fluid channel. The device further includes a plunger located within the hollow body, movable between a first position and a second position, and a solution chamber formed within the hollow body which contains a cleaning solution and is in fluid communication with the fluid channel in the hollow neck portion. A cleaning end of the plunger is configured to move the cleaning solution in the solution chamber through the fluid channel and through the at least one opening in the cleaning head when the plunger is moved from the first position toward the second position.

An applicator for a container, the container for storing a substance to be applied and including an outlet through which the substance is to be discharged, wherein the applicator includes a brush head adapted to be located at the outlet; and a removable nozzle adapted to be optionally mounted over the brush head.

A heated shaving brush having a housing with an interior space that houses a shaft that acts as a tube to allow shaving cream or similar lubricating agent to pass through to a bristle assembly that a user applies to their body. The shaft is adjacent to a heating element that is powered by alternating or direct current, thereby heating the shaving cream as it passes through the hollowed shaft. A graduated knob can modulate the speed at which the shaving cream passes through the shaft, thereby increasing or decreasing the temperature of the shaving cream before it is applied to a user's face.

Hands-free systems, devices and methods, adapted for brushing, cleaning and treating all of a user's teeth simultaneously, are provided. In some embodiments, such a device comprises brushes for cleaning all of a user's teeth simultaneously. In some embodiments, such a device includes a generally U-shaped channel(s), accepting, cleaning and/or treating all of a user's teeth simultaneously. Customized fluid jets within such devices are provided, introducing dentifrices and other treatments into the channels. In some embodiments, compartments and cartridges with a proprietary form factor for delivering dentifrice and other treatments and for disposing of waste without mess are provided. In some embodiments, data are gathered, analyzed and serve as the basis for a treatment plan, which may then be carried out by the system(s), device(s) and method(s), over time.
