The shower gel incorpo- rates small pearl-like beads that give off their fragrance when applied to the skin. The vividly coloured product with an apricot and jasmine flower fragrance is packaged in a transparent PET bottle with a content of 250ml and features a bright yellow, snap-on hinged lid complete with meter- ing nozzle which can be operated with one hand and which acts as a closure. www.dm.de/balea Improved mouthwash In France, Unilever has overhauled its brand name Signal mouthwashes for pro- tecting teeth and gums and has also updated the pack- aging. The alcohol-free Gel Liquide Actif envelopes the teeth in a permanent protec- tive layer which is intended to prevent the formation and penetration of damaging bacteria. The product, which incorporates a glitter effect and is slightly violet-tinted, is bottled in a slightly waisted PET bottle with a content of 500ml. A shrink sleeve label transmits the retail informa- tion and a screw-on, opaque screw closure secured with an adhesive sticker and complete with measuring scale facilitates the dispensing of the mouthwash. www.missionsignal.fr
