Multi-layer deodorant applicator sticks are disclosed to be applied to the body of a user to prevent or mask body odor. Each deodorant applicator stick includes a first deodorant composition layer having a first sensory characteristic, such as a particular fragrance, and at least one second deodorant composition layer having a different sensory characteristic. The first and second deodorant composition layers are joined to one another (e.g., within a container) so that the respective first and second sensory characteristics thereof are available to the user either simultaneously or one at a time as the multi-layer deodorant applicator stick wears down over time. That is to say, a customized mixture of the first and second deodorant composition layers having the first and second sensory characteristics can be applied to the body of the user from a single deodorant applicator stick so as to avoid the necessity that the user have access to a second deodorant applicator stick.

The invention further provides ink particles comprising a) a core comprising a coloring agent, b) a shell, and c) an outermost layer comprising a surfactant or a dispersant, wherein: the core or the shell comprises a polymer, wherein the polymer is polycaprolactone (PCL), poly D-lactic acid (PDLA), poly L-lactic acid (PLLA), poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid), (PLG), polyethylene glycol (PEG), polyethylene glycol-diacrylate (PEGDA), poly(sebacic anhydride) (poly(SA)), polyorthoester, aliphatic polyanhydride, aromatic polyanhydride, or a copolymer thereof; the core further comprises an outer surface; the shell at least partially covers the outer surface of the core; the shell further comprises an outer surface; and the outermost layer at least partially covers the outer surface of the shell. The invention also provides a composition of the ink particles and a liquid carrier or a kit comprising the ink particles and a liquid carrier, and methods of using the composition and the kit for use in a method for tattooing a subject.

The present disclosure relates to a metal material extraction sheet. According to an aspect of the disclosure, the metal material extraction sheet having a predetermined area may be provided, wherein dopamine whose color is changed when reacting with a metal material is provided on at least a part of the outer surface of the metal material extraction sheet.

The present application provides an oral care composition comprising: a) one or more omega fatty acids; and one or more of the following: b) one or more emulsifying agents; c) one or more protease enzymes; d) one or more soluble calcium phosphate remineralizing agents; e) one or more amino acids.

Animal consumable dental hygienic device, comprising: body with an exterior surface and an interior cavity, and sized to be bitten by animal Exterior surface defines projections. Recesses extend inward from the exterior surface. Each recess has dental-hygienically active dimensions allowing a tooth to penetrate therein such that material surrounding the recess frictionally engages an outer surface of the tooth and scrapes the tooth to remove dental plaque. Projections are positioned, dimensioned, shaped and structured to be dental-hygienically active when the animal bites the body, allowing the tooth of the animal to be adjacent to at least one projection when the animal bites the body, such that a projection frictionally engages at least one of the outer surface of the tooth and gums of the animal during biting of the body by the animal.
