The present invention relates to an aerosol device comprising: a container containing a cosmetic composition which comprises at least 6% by weight of one or more powders relative to the total weight of the composition, and a dispensing head comprising a body and an end part comprising at least two outlet orifices configured to allow spraying of the composition about a longitudinal axis of the end part in at least two different directions, the dispensing head comprising at least first and second chambers, through which the composition stream successively passes before it exits via the outlet orifices.

A novel foam dispenser is described, which comprises a dispensing container, a valve with a downstream foaming chamber and a pressure control device for maintaining a constant pressure in the container, such that uniform and compact foam will be created.

A valve gasket for a metering valve of a fluid dispenser, said gasket being made of an elastomer material that is self-lubricating.

An aerosol dispensing system has a container assembly, an actuator assembly, and a trigger member. The container assembly has a valve assembly. The actuator assembly has an actuator housing defining a rail portion, a trigger member pivotably attached to the actuator housing, and an outlet assembly defining an outlet opening. The outlet assembly is slidably supported relative to the actuator housing by the rail portion. The trigger member engages the outlet assembly such that application of deliberate manual force on the trigger member causes pivoting movement of the trigger member relative to the actuator housing and such that pivoting movement of the trigger member relative to the actuator housing causes linear movement of the outlet assembly relative to the actuator housing. The outlet assembly engages the valve assembly such that linear movement of the outlet assembly alters the valve assembly from a closed configuration to a fully open configuration.

A fuel canister valve assembly has a valve cup, a valve stem housing connected with the valve cup and defining a seal housing containing a valve seal and a valve stem having an inner end housed in the valve stem housing and extending through the valve seal to an outer end disposed externally of the valve stem housing. The valve stem housing has an outer periphery provided with at least one side passage defining a flow path along the outer periphery.

Sn agent for coloring keratinic fibers, particularly human hairs, including in a cosmetic carrier

(a) at least one direct dye, and
(b) an inorganic buffer system comprising at least one inorganic acid (b1) and at least one inorganic salt of this acid or these acids (b2), and
(c) water.

Further, a cosmetic product includes the aforementioned colorant which is packaged in a pressurized aerosol container, with the pressurized aerosol container possessing an aerosol dispensing device with spray valve.

Finally, a method for increasing the nuance stability of colorants includes adding the aforementioned ingredients (a), (b), and (c) in the agent.

A foamable pharmaceutical composition and a method of treating corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses of the skin are disclosed. The foamable pharmaceutical composition comprises a corticosteroid compound as an active ingredient; a quick-break foaming agent including an aliphatic alcohol, water, a fatty alcohol and a surface active agent; a buffering agent; and a propellant. The foamable composition is disposed within a pressurizable container that comprises an aerosol valve assembly including a dip tube communicating with a valve orifice through which the foamable composition is dispensed and an actuator to start and stop dispensation. The valve assembly dispenses a conically-shaped spray at a rate of about 2 to about 0.3 g/sec and provides a foam having a density of about 0.12 to about 0.25 when sprayed at a distance of about 5 to about 10 cm from the valve orifice onto a glass surface that is at ambient room temperature.

Cosmetic agents for temporarily shaping keratin fibers, comprising a) a cosmetic preparation, comprising, based on the total weight of the cosmetic preparation, a1) 0.05 to 5.0 wt.-% of at least one hydrophobically modified metal oxide powder; a2) 0.1 to 10 wt.-% of at least one film-forming polymer; and a3) 40 to 95 wt.-% of ethanol, are characterized by a high level of hold and volume.

Cosmetic agents for temporarily shaping keratin fibers, comprising a) a cosmetic preparation, including, based on the total weight of the cosmetic preparation, a1) 0.01 to 1.0 wt.-% of at least one hydrophobically modified metal oxide powder; a2) 0.01 to 0.5 wt.-% of at least one aminofunctional silicone; and a3) 40 to 95 wt.-% of water, are characterized by a high level of hold and volume.

An aerosol hydrogen peroxide mixture agent with trigger sprayer that can be easily held in one hand. The hydrogen peroxide agent is in a bag inside a can and under pressure from air or nitrogen or mixture thereof, and can only be initially opened and released by pulling the tab of the trigger sprayer. The trigger assembly cannot be sprayed until the tab is pulled. The can is cylindrical canister housing and has a dip tube that goes to the bag of the can to the hydrogen peroxide mixture agent. There is propellant composed of air or nitrogen or mixture thereof in the can that pushes on the bag holding the hydrogen peroxide mixture agent up through the dip tube to the valve operative and then to the actuator stem up through the trigger sprayer.
