Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an applicator for applying a product to keratin fibers, in particular the eyelashes or the eyebrows.

  • the implantation of teeth or hair on a applicator is a determining parameter for the application of the product, in particular on the eyelashes.
  • the implantation of teeth or hair on a applicator is a determining parameter for the application of the product, in particular on the eyelashes.
  • Comb-type applicators are generally obtained entirely from molding, in particular of a thermoplastic material.
  • One of the problems that can landing with such combs is due to the difficulty of multiplying types implantation of teeth, and therefore therefore, to multiply the types of makeup obtainable. Indeed, each new implantation of the teeth, in view obtaining a new make-up requires the use of a new mold. Through elsewhere, some types of implantation cannot be easily obtained from molding. In addition, the production of teeth having a small cross section, or having a complex shape, is not without problems.
  • brushes type for makeup eyelashes, we also know brushes type "brushes twisted "comprising a core made up of two branches of a metallic wire twisted, so as to form helical turns. Before the stage of twist the wire, we introduce between its two branches, a layer of hair. After complete twisting, the bristles are tightened radially between the two branches twisted wire. The final shape of the brush is then obtained by clipping the brush to the desired profile according to the desired makeup.

  • such a "grip” allows the spreading of the product until the extreme tip of the eyelashes, and thereby gives the illusion of longer eyelashes.
  • the eyelashes thus gripped will adopt a movement of bending corresponding to the rotational movement of the applicator.
  • the hairs of the first layer cross with the hairs of the second layer, when the applicator is observed along its longitudinal axis.
