Definitions

  • the present invention relates to packaging and applicator devices for a substance such as a cosmetic or care product, such devices comprising a receptacle capable of being closed in sealed manner and suitable for containing the substance, together with a porous structure such as a foam having open cells for applying the substance or for wiping an applicator.
  • the invention seeks to improve known packaging and applicator devices that use a porous structure for application purposes or for wiping an applicator, so as to reduce the quantity of preservative(s) contained in the substance to as little as possible.
  • the packaging and applicator device includes at least one biocidal agent incorporated in the porous structure.
  • the biocidal agent when the porous structure is dry, the biocidal agent is present in the solid or concentrated state.
  • the porous structure is prevented from drying out by the receptacle being closed in sealed manner, and arrangements are made to ensure that it retains residual moisture enabling the biocidal agent to be activated.
  • the biocidal agent is released within the porous structure to prevent it from deteriorating.
  • the porous structure is usually stressed only on its surface while the substance is being applied or an applicator is being wiped, and as a result the biocidal agent present in the porous structure tends to remain contained therein and is to be found in trace form only in the substance that is applied to the user, which is advantageous when the substance is for sensitive areas.
  • the biocidal agent can be present in relatively small quantity.
  • the porous structure is arranged in such a manner as to be saturated with the substance on its surface only.
  • the porous structure is hydrophilic or includes one or more hydrophilic biocidal agents.
  • porous structure is hydrophilic makes it easier for it to be completely moistened by the substance when the substance is aqueous.
  • the porous structure is lipophilic and includes one or more lipophilic biocidal agents.
  • the porous structure can also include hydrophilic and lipophilic biocidal agents simultaneously.
  • biocidal agent(s) it is possible to use one or more bactericidal and/or bacteriostatic and/or antifungal agents.
  • the porous structure can be a foam or a sponge made from polyurethane, polyester, polyether, natural rubber (NBR) or synthetic rubber (SBR), butyl, silicone, nitrile rubbers, or EPDM (a copolymer of a diene with ethylene and propylene), and it preferably has at least 10% open cells.
  • NBR natural rubber
  • SBR synthetic rubber
  • EPDM a copolymer of a diene with ethylene and propylene
  • the porous structure can present a composite structure with a plurality of layers of different kinds, e.g. a plurality of types of foam.
  • the cosmetic or care product used can comprise, for example, 0.5% to 95% water and can be a gel, or an emulsion, in particular an emulsion of oil in water or of water in oil.
  • the packaging and applicator device of the invention can be used for makeup, treatment, or care of the skin or the hair.
  • the invention also provides a method of conserving a porous structure used in the field of cosmetics or care products, the method including the steps that consist in incorporating at least one biocidal agent during manufacture of the porous structure and of ensuring that the porous structure does not dry out between two uses because it is enclosed in a packaging and applicator device that is sealed or substantially sealed.
  • the biocidal agent is in the solid or concentrated state at the end of the process for manufacturing the porous structure, and while said structure is dry.
  • the biocidal agent is present in the form of crystals, for example, within the porous structure. These crystals serve to protect the porous structure against risks of deterioration and they dissolve very progressively within the porous structure.
  • the invention also provides a method of manufacturing an open-celled porous structure used for applying a cosmetic or a care product, wherein, during the process of manufacturing the porous structure, at least one biocidal agent that is at least partially hydrosoluble is incorporated therein so that said agent returns to the solid or concentrated state when the porous structure is dry.

  • An applicator 26 constituted by a sponge is received in the lid 22 beyond the screen 25 .
  • the packaging and applicator device 20 is arranged to ensure that the applicator 26 is stored in sealed manner.
  • the applicator 26 is secured at its periphery to an annular rim 28 which serves as a sealing gasket by being pinched when the box is closed between the lid 22 and a mask mounted on the body 21 .
