Disclosed is a preparation-at-use device comprising: (1) a pre-formed hydrogel component packaged in a first compartment; the pre-formed hydrogel component comprising a gelling agent and a solvent; and (2) a benefit component packaged in a second compartment; the benefit component comprising at least one compound that is unstable when contacted with the pre-formed hydrogel component; wherein the first and second compartments are separately packaged prior to use, and wherein the device comprises means for contacting the pre-formed hydrogel component and benefit component upon use.

Preparation-at-use device comprising pre-formed hydrogel product

Cosmetic package

Disclosed is a continuous line process for making a pre-formed object having a plurality of surfaces comprising the steps of:

Pre-formed objects

A continuous line process for making a packaged cosmetic device comprising a pre-formed sheet and a coating composition in a sealed package, wherein the pre-formed sheet is produced from a sol phase composition comprising a solvent and a gelling agent having a sol-gel transition point between about the melting point of the solvent and about the boiling point of the solvent by a process comprising heating the so phase composition, forming surfaces of the sol phase composition by pressing the sol phase composition between a plurality of liners, cooling the sol phase composition into a gel phase, cutting the gel phase composition to form the pre-formed sheet.

Process for making pre-formed objects

Disclosed is a continuous line process for making a pre-formed object having a plurality of surfaces comprising the steps of: (1) providing a sol phase of the composition comprising a solvent and a gelling agent having a sol-gel transition point between about the melting point of the solvent and about the boiling point of the solvent; (2) forming surfaces of the sol phase composition by passing through a surface forming system, the surface forming system pressing the sol phase composition between a plurality of liners; (3) cooling the sol phase composition into a gel phase; and (4) cutting the gel phase composition; wherein the pre-formed object is free of a supporting substrate.
