Abstract

Die Erfindung richtet sich auf eine Kosmetikeinheit umfassend zwei unterschiedliche Applikatoren mit jeweils einem Stiel, wobei die Applikatoren jeweils in einen Vorratsbehälter eintauchen, jeder Behälter einen Behälterhalts mit einem Außengewinde aufweist, auf welches jeweils ein Kupplungsteil aufschraubbar ist, und wobei die beiden Behälter mittels der aufgeschraubten, gleichzeitig als Verschlusskappe dienenden Kupplungsteile über eine Kupplungshülse lösbar miteinander verbindbar sind. Hierbei sind die als Schraubkappen ausgebildeten Kupplungsteile mit der Kupplungshülse durch eine axial verlaufende Verzahnung drehfest und durch eine Rastnut-Rastwulst-Verbindung axial fest verbindbar.
