An oral care article in form of a strip for use in the oral cavity. The oral care article comprises a solid hydrophobic delivery carrier comprising solid hydrophilic particles comprising an active agent for oral care. The active agent(s) for oral care can include bleaching agent(s), antimicrobial agent(s), anti-calculus agent(s), healing agent(s), anti-caries agent(s), dentinal desensitizing agent(s), anesthetic agent(s), antifungal agent(s), coolant(s), anti-inflammatory agent(s), selective H-2 antagonist(s), nutrient(s), erythritol, probiotics, fluoride ion source(s), or combinations thereof. The concentration of the active agent for oral care at a first surface of the solid hydrophobic delivery carrier is greater than the concentration of the active agent at a second surface of the solid hydrophobic delivery carrier.

A dissolvable solid article which can include multiple layers of flexible, dissolvable, porous sheets, in which a coating composition including solid particles is present on at least one internal surface of at least one sheet in said solid articles and a process for making such solid articles.

An article in form of a strip for use in the oral cavity. The article includes a water insoluble delivery carrier comprising solid hydrophilic particles comprising at least one bleaching agent, wherein: (i) at least about 20 parts by weight of the solid hydrophilic particles dissolve in about 100 parts by weight of water, and/or (ii) wherein the solid hydrophilic particles increase by volume and/or weight by at least about 50% in water, and wherein the particles are embedded in the carrier.

Articles that include from 20 wt-% to 45 wt-% of one or more plant based oils based on the total weight of the article; from 50 wt-% to 70 wt-% of one or more polymer film formers based on the total weight of the article; and from 5 wt-% to 15 wt-% of one or more humectants based on the total weight of the article. Further articles comprises this combination of oil, film former and humectant as a first layer adjacent to which a second layer comprises a mucoadhesive polymer. The articles may be used to prevent formation or maintenance of biofilm in an oral tissue, affect hydration loss in an oral tissue, affect lubricity or lubriciousness in an oral tissue or treat xerostomia or dry mouth. Preferred polymer film formers include pullulan, xanthan gum, HP guar, ethyl cellulose and carrageenan.

Disclosed herein are novel cosmetics or sunscreen preparations to absorb or scatter ultraviolet light and simultaneously scavenge free radicals, holes, electrons, or reactive oxygen species, and methods of preparing the same.

A kit for decorating and styling nails or for supplying the substance to the nail plate comprises a foil placed on a base layer, wherein the foil optionally, on one arbitrary surface, has an decorative or single-colour overprint made directly on this surface and a self-adhesive coating on the internal side. The foil together with the self-adhesive coating and the base layer has at least eight different protrusions forming permanently formed flexible three-dimensional nail stickers, formed together with the base layer on the matrix, wherein the protrusions mirror the anatomic nail shape and moreover the foil layer together with the self-adhesive coating is cut around the perimeter of each of the protrusions. There is also disclosed a three-dimensional nail sticker for decorating and styling nails or for supplying the substance to the nail plate.

A hair conditioner composition comprising: a) a basic amino acid; b) a fatty acid; c) a high melting point fatty alcohol; and d) an aqueous carrier; wherein a) through d) form a lamellar gel network matrix with a L.sub.β phase.

A hair conditioner composition comprising: a) a fatty acid; b) a fatty alcohol; and c) an antimicrobial system comprising: i) glyceryl caprylate; and ii) one or more of 4-hydroxyacetophenone and pentylene glycol.

Methods of preparing a delivery system are described. Each method uses a first and second printing materials. The second printing material contains an active material such as a fragrance, flavor, malodor counteracting agent, and mixture thereof.

The present disclosure envisages an edible film composition for delivering predetermined amount of at least one edible composition to the oral cavity, a packaged dosage form packed in an edible film and a process for preparing the edible film composition and the dosage form, where the edible film composition disintegrates quickly upon placement in the oral cavity. Additionally, the edible composition can be at least one selected from the group consisting of mouth fresheners, mukhwas, mint, chocolate, arica nut, coconut, aftermeal snack or digestive aid, confectionery food product, and fennel seeds.
