An oral care dispenser system in one embodiment includes a toothbrush and removable dispenser. The dispenser includes an elongated housing with reservoir containing an oral care material, an applicator at a distal end, and an actuator at a proximal end. An elevator disposed in the housing forms a movable wall of the reservoir. The elevator is operably coupled to a drive screw via an extension member threadably engaged with the screw. Rotating the drive screw in a first direction with the actuator distally advances the elevator in the housing to dispense the oral care material. The elevator is retractable by rotating the actuator in a second direction without uncoupling elevator from the extension member.

An electric tooth cleaning device; the electric tooth cleaning device includes a toothbrush, a toothbrush-actuator, a cartridge-compartment, a cartridge-door, a conduit, at least one cartridge, a cartridge-actuator, a user-interface, and at least one power-source. The electric tooth cleaning device provides users with an improved toothbrush capable of applying toothpaste to the bristles using an internal cartridge.

A paint applicator, kit and methodology for using the same is disclosed. For example, a paint applicator that allows a user to load a desired amount of paint, such as a water based or other low VOC paint, into the paint applicator and an advancement mechanism that dispenses paint at a rate controllable by the user is disclosed. The advancement mechanism can include a system that translates a rotational force applied to an end cap of the applicator into a linear force that advances a piston which in turn applies paint to an applicator portion. The paint applicator may be reusable or may include a ratchet system that allows for only one-time use. The methodology and kit can incorporate a syringe for loading paint into the paint applicator, thus reducing the loss of paint through spilling.

An oral care system includes a toothbrush and a dispenser detachably coupled to the toothbrush. The dispenser includes a chamber containing an oral care material. A compression device assembly includes an actuator operably coupled to a compression device movably mounted inside the dispenser. In one embodiment, the actuator may be a ratcheting rocker switch that alternatingly engages gear racks formed on the dispenser housing. Actuating the rocker switch imparts pivotable and indexed linear motion to the switch. This in turn axially translates the compression device in a first longitudinal direction thereby compressing and extruding the oral care material from the dispenser. The corresponding indexed movement of the compression device dispenses predetermined doses of the oral care material providing precise control over the amount of oral care material dispensed.

The instant disclosure relates to hair coloring base compositions and developer compositions that can be incorporated into a hair color cartridge, which combines the compositions and dispenses them onto hair. The hair color cartridge includes: (a) one or more hair coloring base compositions and; (b) one or more developer compositions, which can be combined to form an active hair coloring composition and dispensed onto hair. The hair coloring base compositions typically include one or more oxidative dye precursors; one or more alkalizing agents; one or more reducing agents; optionally, one or more cationic conditioning polymers; one or more surfactants; one or more water-soluble solvents; and water. The developer compositions typically include one or more oxidizing agents; one or more surfactants; and water. The unique components and fluid characteristics of the various compositions are such that devices or appliances comprising them accurately combine and dispense the hair coloring base composition(s) with the developer composition(s) in a predetermined ratio with excellent consistency for application to hair.

A modular hair brush is provided, which is able to disperse styling products, therapeutic, and medicated treatments from a product holder in a brush handle. The head portion of the brush includes bristles bundled together that are positioned near openings that disperse the treatment product(s) stored within the handle. In an example, the handle has a mechanism that is able to advance and retract a piston within a product holder encasing replaceable treatment product(s). When product application is desired, a manual push or twist mechanism is engaged, which causes one or more products to pass through the openings to the bristles of the brush and onto the hair during normal combing. Different examples provide for the use of replaceable brush heads that can be adjusted to different hair texture and thickness, or type of hair styling. Also provided is a replaceable product insert that can use different viscous liquid solutions designed for different treatment. The modular brush allows for mixing of different hair products before application, thus offering a portable, refillable, on-the-go multi-functional beauty tool.

The present disclosure may be directed to a system including a diagnostic device configured to illuminate a portion of the oral cavity and detect information relating to emission fluorescence and/or back scattered light relating to the illuminated portion of the oral cavity. A processor may be configured to receive the information relating to the emission fluorescence and/or back scattered light; determine the oral condition of the oral cavity based on the received information relating to the emission fluorescence and/or back scattered light; determine ingredients that are expected to remedy the oral condition of the oral cavity; and cause identities of the ingredients to be transmitted. The product dispenser may receive the identities of the plurality of ingredients; mix the identified plurality of ingredients within the mixing chamber; and dispense a product expected to remedy the oral condition of the oral cavity.

A paint applicator, kit and methodology for using the same is disclosed. For example, a paint applicator that allows a user to load a desired amount of paint, such as a water based or other low VOC paint, into the paint applicator and an advancement mechanism that dispenses paint at a rate controllable by the user is disclosed. The advancement mechanism can include a system that translates a rotational force applied to an end cap of the applicator into a linear force that advances a piston which in turn applies paint to an applicator portion. The paint applicator may be reusable or may include a ratchet system that allows for only one time use. The methodology and kit can incorporate a syringe for loading paint into the paint applicator, thus reducing the loss of paint through spilling.

A fluid dispenser comprising a shell including a handle portion and an applicator portion opposite the handle portion. The fluid dispenser includes a handle connected to the handle portion of the shell, and an applicator connected to the applicator portion of the shell. The applicator includes a base portion, a plurality of nodules extending from the base portion away from the handle portion of the shell, and at least one dispensing orifice. An interior cavity is formed between the applicator and the shell, where the at least one dispensing orifice provides selective fluid communication into the interior cavity through the applicator.

A hair brush includes a handle defining a longitudinal axis and a brush head having at least two longitudinal primary arms extending longitudinally from the handle and disposed in lateral spaced relation to define a longitudinal gap therebetween. Each of the longitudinal primary arms includes a pair of longitudinal rear spines disposed in lateral spaced relation, a single longitudinal intermediate spine extending from the rear spines, and a pair of longitudinal forward spines disposed in lateral spaced relation and extending from the intermediate spine. Hair engaging bristles are disposed on each of the rear spines, the intermediate spines and the forward spines. The at least two longitudinal primary arms are substantially flexible to conform to the contour of the user's head. A container containing a hair treatment agent such as dry shampoo may be releasably mounted to the handle.
