Abstract:
A method of making a cosmetic applicator assembly is described. The cosmetic applicator assembly includes an applicator head comprising an applicator front portion having at least a first surface, a second surface, and a multiplicity of apertures extending between the first surface and the second surface, at least one applicator component protruding from the at one least aperture and attachable to the applicator front portion, and an applicator back portion fixed to the applicator front portion so as to cover the second surface of the applicator front portion.
Abstract:
An applicator for a cosmetic product, in particular mascara, comprises a twisted core and fibres which extend from the core and are held by the core, the core having a main longitudinal direction of extension, known as the main axis (X), and the core being rectilinear along the main axis (X). The fibres form an envelope (E) with their free ends, the envelope (E) comprising faces (F1-F4) which alternate about the main axis (X), the faces (F1-F4) being curved, a cross section made transversely to the main axis (X), known as the cross section, having a substantially polygonal shape so as to form edges between the curved faces (F1-F4).
Abstract:
The invention relates to an applicator for cosmetic product comprising a core, a plurality of protrusions projecting from the core to form a brush, and a spatula situated in the continuation of the core. The invention also relates to an applicator assembly for cosmetic product, comprising: a container comprising a body forming a reservoir intended to contain the cosmetic product, and an applicator as described above and suitable for being attached to the container, so that the applicator is accommodated inside the reservoir.
Abstract:
A tube head assembly includes a tube head that includes a solid insert forming a lid closing the neck, a cap that includes a punch, and a removable spacing ring disposed against the shoulder around the neck. The ring and the cap are formed integrally in one piece and are joined by material bridges and configured in such a way as to allow sliding of the cap through the ring after breakage of the material bridges, characterised in that the ring includes internal stops adapted to limit the movement of the cap through the ring in such a way as to keep the punch spaced from the lid when the cap is screwed onto the neck and butts against the ring.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a container (1) with an applicator cap (2) for a cosmetic product, comprising: a flexible tube (3) comprising a skirt (31) and a tube head (32) comprising a shoulder part (321) and a neck (322) with an opening (3221), the tube head (32) being connected to the skirt (31) by the shoulder part (321), the flexible tube (3) acting as a reservoir to contain some cosmetic product; an applicator cap (2) comprising a base (21) and an applicator, the base (21) being designed to fix onto the tube head (32) and plug the opening (3221) and the applicator being fixed to the base (21) so as to be housed inside the flexible tube (3) when the base (21) is fixed to the tube head (32) and plugs the opening (3221); characterized in that the skirt (2) is made of a multilayered plastics material (4) comprising at least one barrier layer (41).
Abstract:
A case is provided, notably for cosmetic products. The case includes a base and a lid which are articulated relative to one another. The case includes locking means allowing the lid to be kept in a position in which it is closed onto the base, characterized in that the locking means are articulated relative to the base and/or to the lid in such a way as to be retracted inside the base and/or the lid via the opening of the lid.
