In addition, when applying cosmetics such as eye shadow, eyebrow, etc., to the brush body constituting the cosmetic applicator, the cosmetic contained in the container is not limited to the brush body. In addition to the holder that holds the brush body as a unit, it often adheres to the body or handle that supports the holder that holds the brush body as a whole. As mentioned above, cosmetics are actually applied to the face. Or, when operating the brush body of the cosmetic applicator to blur the cosmetic after application, holding the body or handle supporting the brush body parallel to the face, Since the receiver to which the cosmetics are attached or the supporter that supports the receivers can easily touch the uneven face, the cosmetics attached to the surface of the receivers and the like may cause extra portions on the nose, cheeks, etc. The fouling to which cosmetics adhere will occur. There is a door.
[0005]
Therefore, the present invention improves the disadvantages of the above-mentioned conventional ones, and prevents contamination of the operation of the cosmetic applicator when actually applying the cosmetic or blurring the cosmetic after application. However, it can be easily and reliably performed.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
