Definitions

  • the present invention seeks to overcome the above and other disadvantages and to this end it contemplates a simple and inexpensive applicator by which preparations of the kind in question may be effectively applied in a most simple, convenient and expeditious manner and without any waste of the preparation.
  • Figure 2 is a perspective view of the applicator of Figure 1.
  • Figure 3 is a perspective View illustrating an alternative construction.
  • An applicator according to the invention includes two arms or blades 6 which are interconnected at or adjacent their one ends, and have their fre ends I normally spaced apart for a suitable distance say about one half an inch (2/ more or less. Either or both of the arms is (or are) of a resilient nature so that by exerting finger pressure the free ends of the arms may be caused to yieldingly approach each other.
  • each arm' is attached a brush element 8.
  • these two elements 8 converge outwardly towards each other at an appropriate angle so that when the free ends of-the arms 6 are pressed inwardly, the tips or outer end portions of the brush elements come into substantial contact with each other.
  • an appropriate quantity of a suitable preparation is deposited upon the tips or outer end portions of either or both the brush elements 8 preferably at the inner surfaces thereof.
  • the user or operator then brings the applicator into such position that the eyelashes (or other hairs), to be treated extend between the two brush elements as indicated in Figure 1.
  • Finger pressure is then applied to the arms to force the two brush elements inwardly so that the tips thereof make substantial contact with each other.
  • the applicator is moved outwardly so I that the preparation is progressively brushed or wiped onto the eyelashes or eyebrows from about the roots to the tips thereof.
  • th preparation will be uniformly, efiiciently and conveniently applied with rapidity and ease, while wastage of the preparation and smudging of the skin of the user therewith will be avoided.
  • the two arms may be formed separately from spring steel or other suitable resilient material and may be secured together adjacent their one ends by spot Welding or by a rivet 9 so that upon relaxation of finger pressure the arms willmove apart into the desired comparatively acute V formation of Figure 2.
  • Each brush element 8 may consist of a single row of bristles 9 the inner ends of which are embedded in a holding strip ll which is appropriately secured to the free end of the respective arm.
  • the sides of each backing strip may be provided with grooves or channels I la and gripped therein by the inturned free end I of the respective arm 6 and an end In of a clamping jaw l2 thatis secured to the respective arm near its free end.
  • the arms 6 are formed integral with each other from .a single strip of spring steel or other appropriate resilient material.
  • An applicator for eyelash treatment comprising arms connected at one end and inherently resilient to normally maintain the opposite ends of the arms spaced, a clamping means at each spaced end, and brush elements carried by the clamps, each brush element comprising a relatively wide thin mass of soft, comparatively long bristles arranged wholly in advance of and beyond each arm, the bristles of the respective brush elements inclining toward each otherbeyond the arms to provide for contact between their free ends and throughout a substantial length toward the arms when said arms are moved toward each other.
