Abstract: The cosmetic brush, which is in particular a mascara brush, comprises a bristle portion with a base body and a plurality of bristles that stick out from the base body and serve for the application of a cosmetic product. The bristles have a high bristle density of at least 6 bristles per square millimeter and consist of a plastic material that has a Shore hardness D of more than 40.

Abstract: A container and applicator unit, in particular test unit, comprises a container for a cosmetic. An applicator top is placed thereon, having an applicator that stands out from the top in a principal sense of extension. The applicator, at least by sections, is rotationally symmetrical or plurally symmetrical in relation to an axis of symmetry that is parallel to the principal sense of extension. At least one passage, which, at least by sections, is decentralized from the axis of symmetry of the applicator, leads from the container to the applicator. The result is a container and applicator unit by which to enable a cosmetic to be spread uniformly on the surface of application.

Abstract: A brush for cosmetic- or care-product application to human skin, in particular for lip-cosmetic application, wherein a bunch of fibers is bent in a shape of a U and, in the vicinity of a bight of the U, is fixed in a recess of a shank of the brush, and wherein the fibers are pointed towards both tips.

Abstract: A cosmetic unit, especially a mascara unit, comprises a storage container for a mascara liquid, a closing cap for placing onto the storage container, an applicator rod incorporating an applicator and extending away from the inside of the closing cap through an orifice, and a wiper means placed in the orifice of the container, wherein the wiper means extends sufficiently far from the edge of the orifice into the interior of the container so that the wiper orifice or the wiper lips of the wiper means, when the applicator is in the inserted condition, extend to the region of the proximal edge of the applicator.

Abstract: In a mascara brush comprising a plurality of bristles held between two twisted wire segments, wherein the bristles have varying lengths created by trimming, provision is made for the brush to incorporate a first outer face of a predefined geometry created in a first trimming process after twisting, wherein this outer face is formed by the tips of a first number of longer bristles, wherein a portion of the bristles is trimmed by a second trimming process, so that a plurality of bristles of a shorter length is created, the tips of which form a second envelope of a predefined geometry, wherein the tips of the shorter bristles each lie on an orthogonal line relative to these twisted wire segments extending at a distance to the same.

Abstract: In a cosmetic unit comprising two applicators, each having a stem, each of the applicators dipping into a respective reservoir, each reservoir having a reservoir neck provided with an external thread on which to screw a respective coupling part, and the two reservoirs being releasably attachable to each other by means of the screwed-on coupling parts, which at the same time serve as a closing cap, via a coupling sleeve by means of a snap-type connection, provision is made for the snap-type connection to comprise a locking bead disposed on the inside of the coupling sleeve in the outer end region of the coupling sleeve.

Abstract: In a compact comprising a housing, an applicator and a plurality of recesses in the housing for receiving a cosmetic, it is provided, with a view to obtaining an improved compact, that the length of the applicator and the width of the recesses are coordinated for the sum of the widths of the recesses approximately to correspond to the length of the applicator so that the applicator, when stroking across the recesses, is simultaneously loaded with each of the cosmetics contained therein.

Abstract: A container and applicator unit, in particular test unit, comprises a container for a cosmetic. An applicator top is placed thereon, having an applicator that stands out from the top in a principal sense of extension. The applicator, at least by sections, is rotationally symmetrical or plurally symmetrical in relation to an axis of symmetry that is parallel to the principal sense of extension. At least one passage, which, at least by sections, is decentralized from the axis of symmetry of the applicator, leads from the container to the applicator. The result is a container and applicator unit by which to enable a cosmetic to be spread uniformly on the surface of application.

Abstract: In an applicator for a cosmetic product comprising a rod and an application surface made of a relatively soft material and extending obliquely to the longitudinal axis of the rod, provision is made for said application surface to be formed by a plurality of cones arranged parallel to each other, wherein a fictitious outer envelope and the height of the cone define an application volume for a relatively highly viscous cosmetic product from 10 to 60 mm3.

Abstract: In a brush for applying cosmetic substances, especially a mascara brush or hair coloring brush, which is injection-molded from plastic as one piece and comprises a first section for connection to a rod and a second section, said second section having a main body from which a plurality of bristles protrude radially outward, provision is made for the main body to be designed as a polygon in cross section.
