Definitions

  • FIG. 7 is a side view of the embodiment shown in FIG. 6.
  • FIG. 9 is a view of the top portion of the embodiment shown in FIG. 8.
  • Applicator 124 may be attachable or removeably attached to body 102, such as with screw-threads, a snap-fit collar, or the like. In a preferred embodiment, applicator 124 is integral with body 102, which means that the applicator is assembled with the body during manufacturing and is not intended to be removed by a consumer during the product lifetime.
  • Applicator 124 comprises a skin-contacting portion 126 comprising a horizontal plane defining a second cross-sectional shape 128.
  • Cross-sectional shape 128 comprises a major dimension 130 oriented along a first axis and a minor dimension 132 oriented along a second axis.
  • Skin- contacting portion 126 may comprise bristles, a sponge, a loofah, a shower puff, or another material or combination of materials that is capable of lathering a liquid personal care product. Skin-contacting portion 126 may be rinsed after use.
  • flow-restricting member 160 comprises a slit valve 164.
  • Slit valve as used herein means a valve whose members are formed from incision(s) that have a closed and open position as described above.
  • slit valve 164 is made of a relatively flexible material, such as silicone rubber, polyvinyl chloride, urethane, ethylene vinyl acetate, styrene -butadiene copolymer, and other materials known to those of ordinary skill in the art.
  • slit valve 164 is made of silicone. The stiffness of slit valve 164 in one embodiment is sufficient to prevent the slit from opening under the hydrostatic pressure of a liquid personal care product when package 100 is placed in an inverted position.
  • skin-contacting portion 226 of applicator 224 extends to a first height 234 from an applicator base 236.
  • applicator base 236 comprises a plurality of fiber receiving holes 240 that receive fibers 242 to form skin-contacting portion 226.
  • Applicator base 236 comprises an orifice 244 to enable dispensing of product onto skin- contacting portion 226.
  • the user may create a lather with skin-contacting portion 126,226, then use a razor to shave the prepared area.
  • skin-contacting portion 126,226 may be used to exfoliate and cleanse the skin while creating a lather.
  • the user may more easily determine the orientation of skin-contacting portion 126,226 because body 102,202 visually intimates the positioning of skin-contacting portion 126,226. This may be important, for example, if a user is trying to lather the area between the nose and upper lip.
  • nylon bristles having a bristle diameter of 0.006 or 0.008 inches Consumers perceived the nylon bristles having a bristle diameter of 0.006 or 0.008 inches to be too stiff, and nylon bristles having a bristle diameter of 0.003 or 0.004 as being in the right range for softness. Bristles having a "mid-length" (that is those of 0.7 inches) were preferred for stiffness over those that were shorter or longer.
