  • Publication number: 20190328077
    Abstract: This flip flop accessory holds a flip flop more securely to the foot when the wearer wants to run, jump, walk backwards, or dangle their feet—activities where flip flops often dislodge. It is comprised of two anchoring points screws on either side of the sole and an elastic cord that attaches to the screws and wraps around the ankle. The wearer screws anchoring screws into the sides of the sole, wraps the cord around the ankle looping the ends around the anchor screws, and then adjusts the length of the cord to maximize comfort and functionality.

  • Publication number: 20190328112
    Abstract: The invention is an improved stencil system for forming symmetrical contours on eyebrows. The system consists of a pair of modified eyeglass frames that hold the accompanying flexible, reusable, dual eyebrow stencil in place on the raised centerpiece. This allows for the easy application of brow powder to form symmetrical brow contours on the face. The frames have a raised centrepiece that holds the stencil against the bridge of the nose leaving the hands free to steady the stencil and apply makeup. The variety of included stencils can be re-positioned vertically on the centrepiece according to the user's desired brow placement. After the contour is applied to the brow area, a second “browstroke” stencil may be positioned overtop, using the contour as a guide. Simulated brow hairs may be added by brushing darker brow powder over the “browstroke” stencil.
