Abstract: A powder applicator includes a reservoir for powder and a porous membrane tensioned over the reservoir. A portion of the powder is stored in the vicinity of the membrane, in a very open synthetic foam pad between the reservoir and the membrane and communicating with the reservoir.
Abstract: A powder-dispensing brush includes a powder reservoir, a tuft of hairs secured to the reservoir, in particular by a sleeve. The powder is caused to migrate from the reservoir into the tuft, which includes at least one group of relatively more dense hairs and one group of relatively less dense hairs. The powder is caused to migrate by at least one passage communicating with the reservoir and coming out between the groups of relatively more dense hairs and relatively less dense hairs or into the group of relatively dense hairs.
