Tissue paper
To provide tissue paper with an excellent moist texture and high smooth texture. 2-ply tissue paper is characterized by the basis weight per ply being 15 to 18 g/m.sup.2, the 2-ply paper thickness being 135 to 160 m, and containing 2.9 g/m.sup.2 or more and 8.0 g/m.sup.2 or less of chemical agent which contains glycerin and 1,3-propanediol in a total amount of 83.7 mass % or more, wherein the mass ratio of glycerin and 1,3-propanediol is 1:0.04 or more and 1:5.58 or less.
HIGHLY DURABLE TOWEL COMPRISING NON-WOOD FIBERS
The present invention relates to tissue products comprising high yield hesperaloe fiber having improved wet performance, such as improved absorbency, CD Wet/Dry Ratio and CD Wet Durability. The addition of high yield hesperaloe pulp fibers surprisingly improves the CD Wet/Dry ratio without negatively affecting the absorbency of the tissue product. For example, tissue products of the present invention generally have an Absorbent Capacity greater than about 6.0 g/g, such as from about 6.0 to 8.0 g/g. As such the tissue products are durable when wet, but are still sufficiently absorbent. This balance of absorbency and wet strength is not found in the prior art without resorting to adding latex binders or the like to the tissue product.

WET SHEET PACKAGING BODY
Provided is wet-sheet packaging allowing an outer take-out opening to be easily closed and opened using a closure sheet, preventing a permeating liquid from being leaked from an inner container when the wet-sheet packaging has fallen over, irrespective of the number of wet sheets in the inner container. Wet-sheet packaging has a layered body consisting of wet sheets wetted by a permeating liquid accommodated inside an outer bag having an outer take-out opening that is freely opened and closed by a closure sheet at the upper surface of the outer bag. Wet-sheet packaging includes an inner container that has shape-retention capability, and accommodates both layered body and permeating liquid, and an inner sheet that firmly closes the opening of the inner container and has a breakable part along which an inner take-out opening is formed, and in which the inner take-out opening corresponds to the outer take-out opening.
HAND WASHING DISPENSER FOR A WATER BOTTLE
A gravity based dispenser for use with a bottle of liquid. The dispenser hangs about the neck of a user and allows the user to selectively dispense water from the water bottle while the user maintains a valve of the dispenser in an open position. In a closed position, the valve of the dispenser prevents the flow of liquid from the bottle to which the dispenser is attached. The valve is biased to the closed position. In this way, a user may use water to wash their hands using a single water bottle without using unnecessary quantities of water.
SOAP WITH FINGER STRAP ATTACHED AND METHOD FOR FABRICATING SAME
The present invention comprises a soap which does not disengage from the user while in use and provides a means to hang the soap while not in use. Specifically, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a semiflexible continuous mechanical structure extends above a surface of a soap bar just enough to create an open area through which the user's finger may be removably inserted whereby the bottom portion of the structure is embedded within the body of soap 12, such that, when, in use, a user's finger may be inserted into the top portion of the structure, where it will rest atop the top surface of the soap and the bottom portion of the structure will remain substantially embedded in the soap as it dissolves. The top portion of the structure also provides a means to hang the soap while not in use.

EYELASH AND EYE AREA CLEANING CLOTHS AND DRYING CLOTHS AND METHODS OF USING SAME
A method for removing eye makeup comprises: providing a makeup removal cloth comprising a bamboo fabric having an interlock knit; moistening the makeup removal cloth with water or a makeup removal fluid; positioning the makeup removal cloth at an inner portion of an eyelid or under eye region of the user; and moving the makeup removal cloth from the inner portion of the eyelid or under eye region to an outer portion of the eyelid or under eye region.
Hand washing dispenser for a water bottle
A dispenser is provided for dispensing liquid from a standardized container (e.g., a water bottle). A gravity based dispenser for use with a bottle of liquid (e.g., water bottle) hangs about the neck of a user and allows the user to selectively dispense water from the water bottle while the user maintains a valve of the dispenser in an open position. In a closed position, the valve of the dispenser prevents the flow of liquid from the bottle to which the dispenser is attached. The valve is biased to the closed position. In this way, a user may use water to wash their hands using a single water bottle without using unnecessary quantities of water.
