Embodiment Construction

[0019]While many variations in the physical characteristics of the present components are possible, i.e., color, rheology, texture, density, etc., variations in color are widely sought. The specific design or pattern achieved (i.e., width, length of stripe or marbling, etc.) in the combination product can be varied by varying a number of additional factors including, but not limited to, rate of speed of rotation of the container or fill rate of the compositions into a rotating container.

[0020]As used herein, the term “accelerate” or “acceleration” refers to the increase in the rate of change of velocity with respect to time.

[0021]The term “anhydrous” as used herein, unless otherwise specified, refers to those compositions or materials containing less than about 10%, more preferably less than about 5%, even more preferably less than about 3%, even more preferably zero percent, by weight of water.

[0022]The term “ambient conditions” as used herein, unless otherwise specified, refers to...

Abstract

A method of filling a container with a liquid composition, which comprises at least two visually distinct phases, comprising the steps of: a.) transferring said liquid composition to a container using a dispenser which has an initial fill rate; b.) rotating said container during said step a. at an initial speed of rotation and in an initial direction of rotation; c.) changing a feature selected from the group consisting of: the speed of rotation of said container, the fill rate of the dispenser, and the direction of rotation of said container; and mixtures of said features, each independently from the geometry of said container; and d.) completing the transfer of said liquid composition to said container.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION(S)[0001]This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 60 / 873,747, filed Dec. 8, 2006.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to a process for making non-uniform patterns in personal care compositions with multiple visually distinct phases.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]In an increasingly competitive commercial market, it is becoming more and more difficult for manufacturers to distinguish products from those of their competitors. Therefore, it is desirable for products not only to appear aesthetically pleasing to consumers, but also for the products to have a substantially unique appearance from other products in the same market.[0004]In the case of compositions having multiple visually distinct phases, various attempts have been made to create such compositions and to improve known processes for their creation. Processes and apparatuses are known which allow compositions having two or more visually...
