Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cap for a depilatory composition product container which comprises a product application surface to dispense the composition onto the skin of the user, and a product removal edge for scraping the cream from the skin of the user, such that the cap can function both as product applicator and product residue collector.
  • a kit for a depilatory composition wherein the kit includes a container arranged to receive a cosmetic composition comprising a dispensing outlet for the composition; and a removable cap according to the invention wherein the cap is configured to fit over the dispensing outlet and form an integral part of the kit.
  • WO2007/072040 discloses a depilatory cream dispenser which comprises a sachet, which contains the depilatory cream, integrally formed with a product applicator and scraper.
  • the product is designed for single use of a cream product and is somewhat complex in its construction, and does not properly collect the residue from the skin of the user.
  • WO2007/049031 discloses a cover member for a container which includes a cap portion and a leg member which has a recess adapted to receive a scraper tool. This is a multiple use device but requires separation of the scraper from the cap and also does not properly collect the residue from the skin of the user.
  • a cap substantially as hereinbefore described which includes one or more internal protrusions arranged to releasably engage the cover member with a container.
  • a cap substantially as hereinbefore described wherein the internal protrusions are arranged in a radial orientation extending inwardly from an outer edge of the cap portion.
  • kit for a depilatory composition wherein the kit includes :
  • kits wherein the container is arranged to receive a depilatory composition in the form of a foam, gel or cream.
  • Figures 1 and 2 show a hemispherical cap (1) with straightened sides (2,2'), a product removal edge (4) which has a substantially straight front portion and rounded edges (3).
  • the product removal edge is formed from a different material to the cap, from a more resilient thermoplastic elastomer (TPE).
  • TPE thermoplastic elastomer
  • the main part of the cap can be made from any suitable rigid material, eg plastic.
  • Figures 3 to 4 show the kit, in this case an assembly of a cap as shown in Figures 1 and 2 and an aerosol container (5) which contains the depilatory composition along with a suitable propellant.
  • the aerosol container can be any suitable standard container, and may be cylindrical or curved in profile, and formed from standard materials eg aluminium or tin plate.
  • the cap In use, the cap is removed, and the depilatory composition is applied to the appropriate skin area.
  • the flat from surface of the cap can be used to spread the composition to ensure even distribution.
  • the cap can then be used to remove the composition from the skin using the product removal edge (4), whereupon the waste product is collected efficiently inside the cap and the cap can then easily be cleaned by a quick rinse under running water, and replaced on the container.
