| 1. A system, comprising:
a non-aerosol, re-sealable container, the container comprising a jar that permits a user's fingers to be dipped into said
composition and which permits the user to see the surface of the composition contained therein when the jar is opened; and
(ii) a cap for said jar, the cap being sealable with and removable from the jar; and
a composition having a textured surface appearance and being situated within the container that builds up pressure when sealed
and releases pressure when opened, the composition having a volatile compound in an amount effective to renew the textured
surface appearance after the surface has been disturbed and after the container has been sealed against escape of pressure
by the cap, the composition having a viscosity from about 35,000 cps to about 1,500,000 cps, the composition being an oil-in-water
emulsion, the emulsion having an emulsifier,
wherein the volatile compound has a vapor pressure about 20 mbar to about 500 mbar at 25 degrees C. and a boiling point from
about 45 degrees C. to about 85 degrees C.,
wherein the volatile compound does not totally dissolve in either the oil phase or the water phase,
wherein the volatile compound has one or more perfluorobutyl ethers present in an amount from about 0.1% to about 3% by total
weight of the composition, and wherein the composition is in the form of a cream.
