Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for applying a product of make-up of keratin fibers, in particular of the eyelashes.
  • the invention is everything particularly suitable for making up eyelashes, using mascara, packaged either in liquid or solid form (in the form of a loaf or a cake), or semi solid, (in the form for example, of a block of cell foam open or semi open, impregnated with product in fluid form).
  • liquid mascara comprising a rigid tubular body open at one end, containing the mascara, and an applicator capable of being housed in this body, dipping into mascara and fitted with a brush.
  • An element housed in the body ensures the brush is wrung when the applicator is removed from the body.
  • a brush has a central core formed of twisted wires enclosing hairs. These hairs form a spiral whose axis is the soul.
  • Makeup keratin fibers, in particular the eyelashes is made by rotating the applicator around the core. The smoothing of the eyelashes is therefore done with bristles oriented perpendicular to the eyelashes.
  • the mascara formula is very often sheared and it loses the qualities due to its particular viscosity: the formula can form lumps, this phenomenon resulting in poor smoothing of the eyelashes.
  • This requires to use compositions insensitive to shear and limits the number of compositions of usable mascara. This is particularly the case for mascara high pigment load.
  • the element housed in the body for wringing the brush causes, when removing the latter, an unpleasant suction noise due to the depression created inside the body.
  • brush type applicators have the disadvantage of being fragile. Indeed, experience shows that over the uses, the bristles break or degrade, due to significant stresses to which they are subjected, in particular during the introduction of the applicator in the container containing the formula to be applied, in particular when the introduction of the applicator through the wringing device, used in conventional packaging and application units, and also during of the application of the product on the surface to be treated. In addition, such applicators suffer from rapid fouling.
  • Document US-A-4,726,387 shows a device for applying a product cosmetic whose applicator member is formed by a sponge.
  • keratin fibers in particular the eyelashes, which do not have the disadvantages mentioned with reference to conventional application devices, and which allows in particular, a simple and homogeneous makeup of keratin fibers.
  • a device for applying a makeup product for keratin fibers, in particular eyelashes comprising a handle with a substantially flat profile, and carrying at least one applicator member having a free end, said member applicator consisting of a blade defining a unitary structure, elastically deformable in a multi-directional manner, integral with a first end of the handle, and arranged substantially parallel to a plane of the handle, said blade having two main faces, the surface of one at less of the faces having reliefs capable of retaining product, after setting contact of a substantial part of said surface with the product, the restitution of the product made by bringing said substantial part into contact with the keratin fibers, along the axis of said fibers, the width of said free end, measured in a first direction (X) parallel to said plane, being at least equal to a quarter of the average width of an eyelash arc.
  • X first direction
  • the blade thus formed of an elastically deformable material, forms a deformable structure in all directions of space, especially in compression, torsion, stretch, which gives it the ability to conform to any profile of surface to be treated, or to any surface profile on which must be collected the product.
  • unitary structure aims to differentiate the invention from any structure of conventional application, of the bristle type for example, in which the bristles forming the brush, are free from each other, on a part substantial in length, and can rotate relative to each other independently.
  • the blade whatever may be of multi-layer structure, forms a unitary structure, in terms of mobility.
  • the reliefs present on one and / or the other of the faces of the blade retain the product, in particular by the effect of surface tension or capillarity.
  • eyelash arc designates the curve medium (typically in an arc) on which the eyelashes of a adult person.
  • the average width of an eyelash arc for a adult person varies between about 3 cm and 4 cm. With a wide blade less than about 1 ⁇ 4 the average width of an eyelash arch, the homogeneity of the makeup obtained is not satisfactory.
  • the withdrawal of the product is carried out by bringing the blade into contact over a substantial part of its length, with the product, either by immersion in a liquid formula, or by tangential contact of one of the faces of the blade with the free surface of a solid or semi solid block.
  • Restoration of mascara on keratin fibers is carried out by bringing the blade into contact over a substantial part of its length with said keratin fibers, and this, according to the length of said fibers.
  • the applicator member because of its structure, its method of loading (by bringing the blade into contact over a substantial part of its length, with the length of keratin fibers, not by the tips of the bristles conventional), and its thin thickness will not clog so substantial, and will resolubilize the dry product instantly.
  • the free end of the blade may have teeth, advantageously used to separate the eyelashes after application.
  • the handle can be easily caught between thumb and forefinger.
  • the application of the product is no longer done in an uncertain way by making rotate the applicator along its axis as in known applicators, but by smoothing the keratin fibers, and in particular the eyelashes, over their entire length, from their base to their end, the blade tangent to the lashes.
  • the gesture is much simpler than with known applicators. It is also possible tilt the applicator at will and thus curl the eyelashes according to the curvature desired.
  • the width of the applicator member can be between 0.75 cm and 3 cm.
  • the free end of the applicator member has a thickness which, from preferably, is at most equal to the thickness of said first end of the handle, these thicknesses being measured in a direction (Y) perpendicular audit plan.

  • the elastically deformable material has a hardness of between 10 shore A and 90 shore D, and preferably between 30 shore A and 60 shore D.
  • the applicator blade is made of elastomeric material chosen from the group of elastomers of polyethylene, polyurethane, polyester, polyether block amides; polyvinyls; ter-polymers ethylene, propylene and a diene (EPDM); styrene-butadiene polymers sequenced (SEBS-SIS); silicone, nitrile, butyl elastomers, etc ..

  • the elastically deformable core may have a length depending on the direction (Z), greater than the length of the foam blocks between which it is caught sandwich, said core having in the vicinity of the free end of the member applicator, means such as teeth or bristles, capable of separating the keratin fibers after application.

  • the articulation makes it easier to set up contact of one or the other side of the blade with the block of product.
  • the end of the handle opposite to said first end may include means for separating keratin fibers after application.
