Abstract

A compliant personal care article, can include: a personal care composition, including i) a surfactant; and ii) from about 3% to about 40%, by weight of the composition, of a water insoluble hygroscopic fiber, fine, or filament; and a first contact substrate adjacent to the composition, wherein the contact substrate is a multiplanar film, includes a surface aberration, and has a surface aberration area of about 45% to about 98%.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A compliant personal care article, comprising:
a) a cleansing composition, comprising a surfactant; and
b) a first contact substrate adjacent to the composition, wherein the contact substrate is a multiplanar film, comprises one or more surface aberrations, and has a surface aberration area of about 45% to about 98%, and wherein the contact substrate comprises from about 1000 pores/in 2 to about 3000 pores/in 2 .

2. The compliant personal care article of claim 1 , wherein the first contact substrate is a vacuum formed film.

3. The compliant personal care article of claim 1 , wherein the composition has a compliance value after 2 simulated uses of about 0.01 kg/mm to about 1.5 kg/mm.

4. The compliant personal care article of claim 1 , wherein the multiplanar contact substrate has a surface aberration area of 50% to about 98%.

5. The compliant personal care article of claim 1 , wherein the surface aberration comprises a protuberance.

6. The compliant personal care article of claim 5 , wherein the protuberance comprises a pore.

7. The compliant personal care article of claim 1 , wherein the article further comprises a second contact substrate adjacent to the composition.

8. The compliant personal care article of claim 7 , wherein the second contact substrate comprises a nonwoven laminate formed film.

9. The compliant personal care article of claim 1 , wherein at least one surface aberration comprises a feature.

10. The compliant personal care article of claim 9 , wherein the at least one surface aberration also comprises a protuberance.

11. The personal care article of claim 1 , wherein the article has a compliance value of about 0.01 kg/mm to about 1.5 kg/mm before a simulated use.

12. The personal care article of claim 1 , wherein the surfactant comprises isethionate, cocoamide monoethanolamine, cocoamidopropyl betaine, decyl glucoside, lauryl glucoside, an alkyl sulfate, or a combination thereof.

13. The personal care article of claim 12 , wherein the composition is a soft solid.

14. The personal care article of claim 1 , wherein the surface aberrations comprise a repeating geometric pattern.

15. The personal care article of claim 1 , wherein the first contact substrate surrounds the cleansing composition.

16. The personal care article of claim 1 , wherein the article is reusable.

17. The personal care article of claim 1 , wherein the cleansing composition further comprises zinc pyrithione.

18. The personal care article of claim 1 , wherein the article has a consumption rate of about 3.5 g/use to about 10 g/use.

19. A compliant personal care article, comprising:
a) a cleansing composition, comprising a surfactant; and
b) a first contact substrate adjacent to the composition, wherein the contact substrate is a multiplanar film, comprises a surface aberration comprising a protuberance, and has a surface aberration area of about 45% to about 98%, and wherein the protuberance comprises a pore.
