  • the present invention relates to applicators intended for applying a product to keratinous fibers, in particular eyelashes or eyebrows, and more particularly, but not exclusively, mascara brushes.
  • US 5,161,555 discloses a mascara brush made from wavy hairs to give the brush a deconstructed appearance.
  • US 6,079,087 discloses a machine for forming corrugations on brush bristles used for painting. The hairs are treated before their incorporation in the brush.
