  • the applicator comprises an element Application having a base of polygonal cross section, having a plurality of sides and a plurality of projecting elements arranged on the base. At least two elements projecting extend from the base substantially in the continuation of different sides from the base and in different directions.

  • the eyelashes can be loaded with product on contact with the base.
  • the base can thus participate actively in the application of the product. on the eyelashes thanks to the particular arrangement of the projecting elements in the invention, which offers more freedom in the choice and arrangement of these.
  • a protruding element within the meaning of the present invention may correspond to or include a row of individual elements or reliefs, which can be arranged multiple ways.
  • the applicator advantageously makes it possible to produce such individual elements with a small spacing between two consecutive individual elements within each row.
  • projecting elements or “elements individual” may correspond, for example, to bristles or teeth.
