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.

In one aspect, a dispenser is provided herein for dispensing flowable material, such as sunscreen lotion, including a resiliently deformable body encompassing a closed volume with an optional flexible pouch disposed therein to accommodate the flowable material. A discharge element is also provided having at least one discharge opening, along with at least one valve regulating flow from the closed volume or the flexible pouch and through the discharge opening. The body is configured so that a threshold amount of deformation of the body causes the flowable material to urge from the closed body through the discharge opening or the pressure increase of the closed volume acting on the flexible pouch sufficiently so that flowable material accommodated in the flexible pouch is urged therefrom through the discharge opening. Advantageously, the dispenser of the subject invention allows for a generally isobaric environment to be created which acts evenly about the flexible pouch. This allows for a more even application of pressure acting against, and a more complete depletion, of the optional flexible pouch.

A massage applicator for massaging cream-type fluids into the skin, provided with an end wall with a massage region, on which massage elevations are provided. The end wall is penetrated by at least one outlet channel for the cream-type fluid. The massage applicator is provided with suitable markings in the massage region for measuring the fluid to be used, the applicator is provided with a cover which can be blocked in an open position and/or secured in a closed position, and an assembly of two valves is used in order to secure against unintentional discharge.

An oral care product comprises a package comprising a container and an applicator tip attached to the container. The applicator tip comprises a material having a Shore A hardness of from about 15 to about 80 and has a dispensing orifice in fluid communication with the container. The dispensing orifice has a minimum diameter of at least about 0.5 mm, preferably at least about 1 mm. The oral care product further comprises an oral care composition contained within the container of the package, wherein the oral care composition comprises an oral care active and has a cone penetration value of from about 10 to about 500, preferably from about 100 to about 300.

An inner plug mounted to the neck of the flexible container has a cylindrical hollow portion that contains a valve element, a valve seat disposed below the valve element, a permanent magnet disposed below the valve seat that attracts the valve element to the valve seat, and a discharge outlet in the top of the inner plug to allow discharge of fluid contents of the container via a flow path extending from the discharge outlet to the container body via a void formed between the valve element and the valve seat. The valve element is movable between a closed valve state, in which the valve element contacts the valve seat, and the bottom of the discharge outlet. An open valve state is achieved once pressure inside the container overcomes the magnetic attraction of the valve element to the valve seat and forces the valve element away from the valve seat.

A dispensing device includes a container defining a reservoir containing a liquid and a porous applicator for dispensing the liquid. Another dispensing device includes two containers attached to each other, where the first container defines a reservoir containing a first liquid and a porous applicator for dispensing liquid and the second container contains a second liquid that may be dispensed via application of a force.
