Definitions

  • the invention relates to an applicator for a cosmetic product and an associated applicator assembly.
  • Applicators are known for a cosmetic product, in particular intended to be applied to the eyelashes such as mascara, comprising a core extending in a main longitudinal direction and a plurality of protuberances distributed along the core and projecting from said core. .
  • the applicator comprises zones exhibiting greater flexibility in order to obtain, at these zones, greater precision during the application of the cosmetic product.
  • the applicator comprises zones exhibiting greater flexibility in order to obtain, at these zones, greater precision during the application of the cosmetic product.
  • Such protuberances are effective for combing the eyelashes, in particular because they make it possible to separate the eyelashes from one another and to lengthen them, during the application of the cosmetic product.
  • protuberances are often too wrung out, when the applicator is extracted from the container comprising the cosmetic product and the neck provided with a wringer of said container wrings out the plurality of protuberances of said applicator.
  • the longest protuberances are therefore often insufficiently loaded with cosmetic product so that after application of the cosmetic product, the eyelashes may lack volume.
  • the document FR3 004 906 discloses an applicator comprising a core having a plurality of grooves which increase its flexibility and the document FR3 018 436 discloses an applicator comprising a core having at least one flexion zone.
  • the document FR3 017 782 discloses an applicator comprising a core and a plurality of protuberances forming at least one row of trays forming angular interstices between said trays.
