Abstract

A cosmetic applicator assembly, which includes a polymeric brush and a twisted wire brush. Specifically, the polymeric brush comprises an elongated polymeric core and multiple polymeric tines protruding from the elongated polymeric core. The elongated polymeric core comprises a first polymeric material of a first tensile modulus, while at least some of the polymeric tines comprise a second polymeric material of a second tensile modulus that is smaller than the first tensile modulus. The twisted wire brush comprises a metal wire core and multiple bristles protruding from the metal wire core. The elongated polymeric core of the polymeric brush is complementarily engaged with at least a portion of the metal wire core of the twisted wire brush to form the cosmetic applicator assembly. The polymeric brush of the present invention is preferably formed by a bi-injection molding process.
