Definitions

  • the guard is forward of the blade(s).
  • a feature "aft" of the blade(s) is positioned so that the surface to be treated by the device encounters the feature after it encounters the blade(s), for example if the device is stroked in its intended cutting direction, the cap is disposed aft of the blade(s).
  • FIGs 8a - 8b are side views of a razor in accordance with at least one embodiment of the present invention where the glide retaining structure is pivotably attached to said cartridge housing and pivots like a see saw such that the retaining structures.
  • the first glide member carrier and said second glide member carrier can form a fixed angle, such as from about 165 degrees to about 195 degrees, or about 180 degrees. As shown in FIGs 8a and 8b, the first glide member carrier and the second glide member carrier can pivot together while maintaining said fixed angle.
  • FIG. 11 is a frontal view of a razor in accordance with at least one embodiment of the present invention where the carrier does not wrap around the periphery of said cartridge housing. In this embodiment, the carrier sits behind or as part of the rearward portion of the cartridge housing, away from the shaving plane.
  • FIGs. 12a - 12c are side views of a razor in accordance with at least one embodiment of the present invention where the glide members pivot backwards (12b) and forward (12c).
  • the shaving aid portions can optionally include a different or additional composition.
  • the front shaving aid portion may include the molded shaving aid composition
  • the rear portion may include skin soothing and conditioning ingredients such as emollients and moisturizers in place of or in addition to the shaving aid portion.
  • the shaving aid portions are mounted so that they will resiliently deflect upon contact with the skin, from a normal, undeflected position to a flexed position. This deflection allows the razor to be easily used in hard to reach or confined areas, such as the arm pit (axilla) or behind the knee. Deflection of the shaving aid portion also prevents premature wear of the shaving aid portion and discomfort to the user in cases where the user applies excessive pressure during shaving.
  • Silicone polymers can be present at levels of at least about 0.25% active in a solvent (e.g., at least about 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, 4%, or at least about 4.5%) and/or at most about 5% (e.g., at most about 4.5%, 4%, 3.5%, 3%, 2.5%, 2%, 1.5%, 1%, or at most about 0.5%).
  • the silicone cross- polymer will be present at levels of from about 0.25% to about 5%.
  • Esters Esters can be incorporated into the shaving aid composition, and can function as a wear enhancer and/or as a skin-softener.
  • semi-solid esters may be employed and they are generally process-sensitive materials.
  • the semi-solid esters can act as an emollient and/or as a moisturizer.
  • Exemplary semi-solid esters include butters such as, for example, shea butter, cocoa butter, kokum butter, avocado butter, olive butter, mango butter, and mixtures thereof.
  • the shaving aid composition can include one or more polyethylene compositions as wear enhancing ingredients.
  • poly ethylenes can improve the wear characteristics of the shaving aid composition, but are difficult to incorporate into the composition directly.
  • the polyethylenes can be incorporated into a composition that is then incorporated into the shaving aid composition.
  • a composition including polyethylene, polybutene, and mineral oil for example, sold under the trade name Covagloss by Sensient Technologies
  • Covagloss by Sensient Technologies
  • coloring agents include dyes and pigments, for example, titanium dioxide, manganese violet, zinc oxide, an Ultramarine (e.g., Ultramarine Blue 4), Orange 4, Green 3, or other dyes or pigments approved for use in cosmetics, either alone or in combination.
  • Coloring agents can in certain embodiments be added in an amount of no more than about 6% (e.g., no more than about 4 %, 2%, 1%, 0.1%, 0.01%, 0.001%, 0.0001%, or even no more than about 0.00001%) and/or no less than about 0.000001% (e.g., no less than about 0.00001%, 0.0001%, 0.001%, 0.01%, 0.1%, or no less than about 1%) by weight.
  • the shaving aid composition is placed into a mold having a shaving aid mounting device (e.g., the wings described below) already positioned in the mold. In this fashion, the shaving aid composition can embed itself into the shaving aid mounting device upon solidifying. Once the shaving aid composition has cooled to a sufficient point (e.g., to the point that it has solidified enough to be easily separated from the mold), the shaving aid composition can be removed from the mold. In some embodiments, the shaving aid composition is allowed to cool to approximately room temperature before being removed from the mold.
  • a shaving aid mounting device e.g., the wings described below
