Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an assembly for packaging and the application of a product, in particular a cosmetic or care product, in particular under powder or fluid form.
  • an assembly for the packaging and application of a product comprising a first housing containing the product to be dispensed, and a second accommodation in selective or permanent communication with the first housing, the second housing being intended to removably receive a applicator member, a removable closure element sealingly substantially sealed an opening delimited by an edge of the second housing, the applicator member comprising a first portion adjacent to an application surface and at least a second portion separated from the application surface by the first portion, said second portion being of compressibility greater than the compressibility of the first.
  • application surface is meant any external surface of the member which can be brought into contact with a surface to be treated in particular for bringing the product onto said surface to be treated and / or for spreading it.
  • the support force that this one exercises, when the user applies it to her skin for example is at less partially absorbed.
  • the second portion can be configured to promote uniform or preferential compression of the applicator member. Indeed, in having the more compressible portion on one side of the applicator member, can rotate the first part of the applicator as well as the application surface with respect to an axis of the application member, so that said application surface adapts to the relief of the surface to be treated with an angle different from the angle with which the user holds the organ and apply it.
  • the presence of the second, more compressible portion allows also to facilitate the introduction of the applicator member into its housing limiting the friction that the applicator member can have on the walls internal of the housing when in particular the diameter of the applicator member is equal to or greater than that of the accommodation.

  • the grooves can be spaced two by two from identical way. Alternatively, the grooves are spaced so different. We can indeed use grooves which are more and more spaced apart when moving away from the application surface of the organ application. This notably allows flexibility to be increased progressive. It is also possible to use grooves of different depth.
  • the space between two successive grooves is for example greater than the axial height of said grooves.
  • the groove (s) may (cross) have a cross section on the plane in which it (s) extends (s) of different forms.
