Abstract
A benefit agent delivery system whereby benefit agents can be released over a period of time and/or a variety of different benefit agents can be delivered from the same system and/or different concentrations of benefit agents can be delivered from the same system. The benefit agent delivery system includes a plurality of microcells, wherein the microcells are filled with a formulation comprising a benefit agent and an organic solvent. The microcells include an opening, and the opening is spanned by a porous diffusion layer. Different microcells may be loaded with different benefit agents, thereby providing a mechanism to deliver different, complimentary, or incompatible benefit agents.
