- the object of the invention of the present application is to provide an applying member and an applicator capable of applying cosmetic liquid in various aspects.
- An applying member according to the present invention is an applying member for directly or indirectly mounting to a container body containing a cosmetic liquid and for applying the cosmetic liquid in the container body on an application target, comprising: a head formed with a toothed protrusion including at least one middle protrusion and at least one pair of side protrusions arranged adjacent to the middle protrusion, wherein the amount by which the middle protrusion protrudes is larger than the amount by which the side protrusions protrude, and wherein the width of a front end of the middle protrusion is larger or smaller than the width of a front end of the side protrusion and/or larger or smaller than the thickness at the front end of the side protrusion.
- the amount by which at least one middle protrusion protrudes is larger than those of at least one pair of side protrusions, and the width of the tip of the middle protrusion is larger or smaller than the width of the tips of the side protrusions and/or the thickness of the tips of the side protrusions, it is possible to draw lines of the cosmetic liquid in more various aspects.
- the middle protrusion and the pair of side protrusions with the application target by contacting the middle protrusion and the pair of side protrusions with the application target, three lines of the cosmetic liquid can be drawn.
- two lines of the cosmetic liquid can be drawn.

- one thick line of the cosmetic liquid can be drawn.
- one fine line of the cosmetic liquid can be drawn.
- the protrusion amount and the thickness of the pair of side protrusions may be identical to each other.
- the protrusion amounts and the thicknesses of the pair of side protrusions equal to each other, when using one of the pair of side protrusions to draw one of the eyebrows and using the other of the pair of side protrusions to draw other of the eyebrows, it is possible to easily draw each eyebrow in a similar manner.
- the width and the thickness of the side protrusions may gradually decrease towards the front.
- the toothed portion may protrude forward along an axial direction of the applying member.
- the toothed portion protrudes forward, it becomes easier to use the applicator mounted with the applying member to apply the cosmetic liquid, compared to an applying member with a toothed portion protruding in another direction.
- the toothed portion may be arranged linearly symmetrically with respect to the central axis of the applying member.
- the toothed portion may consist of three protrusions: the middle protrusion and the pair of side protrusions.
- the number of the protrusions contacting with the application target can be more easily changed, and it becomes easier to change the position of the applying member between a situation of drawing three lines of the cosmetic liquid, a situation of drawing two lines of the cosmetic liquid, and a situation of drawing one line of the cosmetic liquid.
