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.

What is claimed is: 1. A process for providing a packaged device, said device comprising a pre-formed sheet and a coating composition, said process comprising the steps of: a) providing an unsealed package; b) applying a coating composition in the package; c) placing a pre-formed sheet in the package, wherein said pre-formed sheet is made by a process comprising the steps of: i) providing a sol phase composition comprising from about 10% to about 99.5% water and from about 0.5% to about 20% polysaccharide gelling agent having a sol-gel transition point between about 25째 C. and about 80째 C.; ii) heating said sol phase composition to a temperature of at least 5째 C. higher than the sol-gel transition point; iii) pre-cooling the sol phase composition to a temperature of between 0째 C. and 5째 C. higher than the sol-gel transition point; iv) forming first and second surfaces by pressing the pre-cooled sol phase composition between two liners, the two liners being supplied by two counter-rotating rollers facing each other, wherein the rollers further comprise cooling means and the two liners further provide textures to the first and second surfaces; v) cooling the pressed sol phase composition into a gel phase composition; vi) cutting the gel phase composition by a die to provide said pre-formed sheet; d) sealing the package; wherein said pre-formed sheet is free of a supporting substrate and has a flex angle of from about 15째 to about 80째, and wherein the steps a), b), c) and d) are in communication with each other to provide a continuous line process. 2. A process according to claim 1, wherein said coating composition is a cosmetic product. 3. A process according to claim 2, wherein said coating composition comprises a skin benefit agent. 4. A process according to claim 1, wherein said coating composition is a pharmaceutical product. 5. A process according to claim 1, wherein said coating composition is a food product.
