Specifically, a dark circular pattern is formed at the center, and an annular pattern thinner than this is formed outside the dark circle at the center, and as a whole, it has light and dark in the radial direction (lighter toward the outer side in the radial direction). And a circular gradation pattern Y in which the boundary is further blurred is formed.

  As described above, in the cosmetic applicator 1 and the cosmetic set 10 according to the present embodiment, the gripper 3 for the user P to grip, and the powder cosmetic that is attached to the gripper 3 so as to be rotatable about the axis. A coating body 4 capable of coating A and B. Since the coating body 4 is configured in a tapered shape, the coating body 4 is arranged side by side with the rotating coating body 4 by employing the above-described usage method. The gradation pattern X corresponding to the powder cosmetics A and B can be easily attached to the application body 4, and the application body 4 is pressed against the face W from the front end side, thereby having a light and shade in the radial direction. A circular gradation pattern Y can be easily formed on the face W. Therefore, a beautiful circular gradation pattern Y can be easily formed using the powder cosmetics A and B of a plurality of colors.

  Moreover, in this embodiment, since the application body 4 is formed from the elastic body, when the application body 4 rotates on the surface of the powder cosmetics A and B, the application body 4 is crushed and deformed in the radial direction. To do. Therefore, the gradation pattern X in which the boundary between the powder cosmetics A and B is blurred can be suitably attached to the application body 4. Further, since the application body 4 is formed of an elastic body in this way, when the application body 4 to which the gradation pattern X is attached is pressed against the face W from the front end side, the application body 4 is crushed and deformed in the axial direction. . Therefore, the gradation pattern Y with a more blurred boundary can be suitably applied to the face W, and a more beautiful circular gradation pattern Y can be formed. Moreover, since the application body 4 is crushed and deformed when the application body 4 is pressed against the face W in this way, the application feeling is good.

  6 and 7 are plan views showing other examples of the multi-color powder cosmetics of the cosmetic container.

  FIG. 6 shows an example in which the lengths of the powder cosmetics A and B are not uniform, and the powder cosmetic B is longer. Here, although the powder cosmetic B is longer, the powder cosmetic A may be longer.

  FIG. 7 shows an example in which three or more colors of powder cosmetics are arranged side by side, and four color powder cosmetics A, B, C, and D are arranged side by side. Here, although the color is lightened in the order of powder cosmetics A, C, D, and B, the arrangement order of the powder cosmetics is not limited to this. It may be an array of body cosmetics D, C, A, B, or the like. Of course, three or five or more colors may be used.

  Even the powder cosmetics of a plurality of colors shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 have substantially the same actions and effects as the powder cosmetic shown in FIG.

  FIG. 8 is a plan view showing still another example of the multi-color powder cosmetic of the cosmetic container. Here, the boundary E between the powder cosmetics A and B is not a straight line but a triangular wave shape in plan view.

  When the boundary E has a triangular wave shape in plan view as described above, when the applied body 4 rotates on the surface of the powder cosmetics A and B, the boundary E between the powder cosmetics A and B is both powder cosmetics. It adheres to the coated body 4 as an intermediate color between A and B. For this reason, the gradation pattern X with a more blurred border can be attached to the application body 4, and a more beautiful circular gradation pattern Y can be formed on the face W.

  Note that the boundary E between the powder cosmetics A and B has a triangular shape in plan view as particularly preferable for obtaining an intermediate color. For example, a sine wave shape in plan view, a rectangular wave shape in plan view, and a saw in plan view It may be a wave shape.

  The present invention has been specifically described above based on the embodiment. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. For example, in the above embodiment, the elastic body is used as a sponge as being particularly suitable. However, it may be another soft foam or soft rubber.
