Definitions

  • Cosmetics are often applied to the face by a brush or other applicator.
  • Cosmetic brushes comprise a variety of sizes and shapes, wherein each brush is designed for a specific application or area of the face.
  • a plurality of brushes can provide additional enhancement and definition to a specific area.
  • some individuals prefer to use different brushes that would define, contour and blend the applied makeup.
  • the use of two or three different cosmetic brushes, appropriately sized for the selected area of the face are useful to optimize the application and blending of the makeup.
  • the bristles of cosmetic brushes are flexible, they move across the natural contours of the face enabling definition, contouring, blending, camouflaging and the addition of structure to the face by highlighting and shadowing certain features.
  • various types of applicators are used to apply blush to the cheek area, eye shadow to the eye area and camouflage or concealer to other areas of the face. As a result, conventionally one would typically use several brushes to obtain the desired results.
  • U.S. Patent Nos. 4,927,281; 5,063,947; 5,165,760; 5,482,059 and many others describe brushes and processes for making brushes for applying a cosmetic product, in which a plurality of bristles transversely implanted in a core.
  • one type of brush generally comprises a core formed by two or more branches of a metal wire twisted into a helix.
  • the bristles extend in the turns formed by the twisted branches.
  • the tips of the bristles define a generally cylindrical outer surface having two diametrically opposed channels and application surfaces helically disposed along the length of the brush portion.
  • the bristle portion trimmed to desired shape, permits penetration of the eyelashes or hair.
  • cosmetic brushes are more like artist brushes, comprising a head of hairs, bristles or fibers enclosed by a metal or plastic ferrule. At the other end of the ferrule is attached a handle. The handle and the bristles of the brush are secured within the opposing ends of the ferrule by crimping and/or by an adhesive, such as glue.
  • Metal ferrules of this type are known to be made of a variety of materials ranging from brass to light weight and inexpensive materials, such as aluminum. Advantageously such light weight materials are easily formed and pressed into place, and they are not corrosive or affected by the cosmetics used on the brushes.
  • the present invention is directed to cosmetic brushes and other applicators, and sets of brushes or other applicators, that substantially eliminates or materially reduce disadvantages of the prior art.
  • An object of one embodiment of the present invention is to provide a brush or other applicator, comprising a head, a handle, and a flexible section connecting the head to the handle.
  • the brush or other applicator may comprise a first ferrule connecting the bristles or other head structure to the flexible section, and a second ferrule connecting the flexible section to the handle.
  • the flexible section may be resiliently flexible, for example, a coil spring.
  • a coil spring can flex sideways by the turns of the coil opening on one side and resting against one another on the other side. It is preferred that, in a resting state, the turns of the spring are closed against one another. This both improves the esthetic appearance of the brush or other applicator, and ensures that it is not too floppy.
  • the applicator may be set so that the spring does not begin to flex until a certain level of sideways force is exerted. However, if an applicator that is resiliently compressible lengthways is desired, then the coils could be open in the resting state, to allow for such compression.
  • the mechanics of coil springs are very well understood, and a manufacturer of such springs can easily provide springs with any desired properties within the ranges appropriate for the present invention.
  • the ends of the coil spring may be fitted inside the first and second ferrules.
  • This construction has the advantages of being simple and robust.
  • the coil spring may then be secured in place by an in-turned lip at the free ends of the first and second ferrules.
  • the coil spring and the two ferrules may be made of, or finished with materials having the same or closely matched appearances.
  • the choice of finishes for the spring may be more restricted, because any finish applied to the spring should survive the flexing of the underlying spring, and because any finishing process should not adversely affect the temper of the material of the spring. Therefore, once the material for the springs has been chosen, the finish for the ferrules may be chosen to match the appearance of the springs. An exact match is not always necessary. For example, stainless steel springs and a silvery satin-finished aluminum ferrules have been found to produce an esthetically satisfactory combination.
  • the flexible applicator allows the angle of the applicator head relative to the handle to change as pressure is applied in a way that can be selected simply by selecting the mechanical properties of the spring or other flexible section. By suitable selection, both the experience of applying cosmetics and the results achieved can be improved. A further advantage of the flexible applicator in some applications, for example, when applying eye-liner, the flexible section allows the brush head to track the edge of the eye, reducing the effect of any unsteadiness in the hand of the user. [0016] As an example of suitable spring forces, a sideways force of several ounces (a few Newton) at the tip of the brush may produce a deflection of a few tens of degrees in the most flexible brush of the set.

Alternatively, the handle 20 may vary in cross section along its length, or may be of a cross sectional shape other than the aforementioned, or both. For example, many handles 20 for cosmetic brushes taper from the ferrule 18 to a free end 22. Moreover, for example, some cosmetic brush handles 20 are flattened in cross section. As shown in FIG. 6, the handle 20 has at the end opposite the free end 22 a substantially cylindrical stub 24 that is received inside the second ferrule 18.
