Abstract: An aqueous cosmetic preparation for coloring the eyelids and eyebrows contains 0.1% by weight to 5% by weight of polyvinyl pyrrolidone; 4% by weight to 25% by weight of an alcohol from the group of ethanol and propanol; 2% by weight to 15% by weight of a dampening agent; 0.1% by weight to 5% by weight of polyoxyethylene glycerin fatty acid ester and/or polyether-modified polysiloxane; and a colorant. The cosmetic preparation has a viscosity of less than 50 mPas (Brookfield, 25° C.).

Abstract: An aqueous cosmetic preparation for coloring of eyelids and eyebrows contains 3-35 wt. % of an aqueous plastic dispersion based on an acrylate polymer and having a 30-50% solids content, 1-20 wt. % of at least one alcohol being ethanol and/or propanol, 2-25 wt. % of at least one moisture-retention agent, 0.2-5 wt. % of a polyoxyethylene glycerin fatty acid ester and/or a polyether-modified polysiloxane, and a colorant. The preparation has a Brookfield viscosity at 25° C. of less than 50 mPa-sec.

Abstract: A metallic ink includes 30% to 80% water, 0.4% to 10% color pigments having a particle size ?6 ?m, 1% to 15% dissolved resin from the group consisting of maleate resin and/or maleic acid modified rosin, 1% to 15% metallic pigments having a particle size distribution D50<25 ?m, 1% to 20% humectants, 0.1% to 10% additives and a viscosity of 5-10 mPa·s (Brookfield, CPE-40 spindle, 20 rpm). An applicator for applying the ink is also provided.

Abstract: A pen-like applicator contains a pen shaft having a removable cap at a first end and at the other, second end, a delivery button that acts upon a reservoir for application fluid. A protective device while being in a protected position, protects the delivery button from being actuated when the cap is on and being coupled to the movement of the cap in a way, such that the protective device is in a release position that releases the delivery button for actuation when the cap is removed.

Abstract: A method for producing raised structures serving as grip nubs on a surface of a pencil, in which, with the help of a nozzle, a plastic preparation is applied. The plastic preparation includes a radiation-curable plastic mass and has the following composition: plastic mass formed from 40% to 98% wt.; oligomer and monomer photoinitiator system 0.1% to 30% wt.; amorphous silicon dioxide 0.3% to 30% wt.; and/or micronized amide wax colorant 0% to 60% wt.; filler 0% to 60% wt.; and further additives 0% to 10% wt.

Abstract: A thermoplastic molding material contains between 10% and 35% by weight of an ethylene copolymer wax with hydrophilic groups, with a melting point between 75° C. and 110° C. and cellulose containing fibers with a share of between 45% and 90% by weight relative to the dry mass of the fibers. Molded bodies may be formed from the molding material, such as pencil casings.

Abstract: A pen includes a shank that has a reservoir and an applicator tip for an application fluid that includes a solvent that is volatile at room temperature. The pen also includes a closure cap that is fitted onto the shank. The closure cap has a cavity that accommodates the applicator tip. The closure cap includes a storage chamber for accommodating a sacrificial liquid that is volatile at room temperature. The closure cap also has a connecting channel that communicates with the storage chamber and the cavity.

Abstract: A pencil has a pencil casing made of a sharpenable casing material and a core held in a central receiving bore in the casing material that extends in the longitudinal direction of the pencil. One or more optical fibers made of a sharpenable material is/are arranged in the pencil casing. The optical fiber or optical fibers extends in the longitudinal direction as well and are at least partially surrounded by the material of the pencil casing. A light entry surface of the at least one optical fiber is arranged at the rear end of the pencil casing such that a light source, which is present there, can be used to inject light to said light entry surface. The light exit surface of the optical fiber exits at the forward end of the pencil casing.

Abstract: A metallic ink includes 30% to 80% water, 0.4% to 10% color pigments having a particle size?6 ?m, 1% to 15% dissolved resin from the group consisting of maleate resin and/or maleic acid modified rosin, 1% to 15% metallic pigments having a particle size distribution D50<25 ?m, 1% to 20% humectants, 0.1% to 10% additives and a viscosity of 5-10 mPa·s (Brookfield, CPE-40 spindle, 20 rpm). An applicator for applying the ink is also provided.

Abstract: A lead for painting includes a water-insoluble lead basic mass in which a water-soluble dye is present. A method of painting with a lead is also provided.

Abstract: The invention relates to a cosmetic pencil including a shaft with a first end and a second end, a reservoir disposed in the shaft, a liquid held in the reservoir, and a capillary application element in fluidic connection with the reservoir. The capillary application element is disposed at the first end of the shaft. A supply of a cosmetic preparation having solid, pasty, creamy or gel-like consistency is disposed at the second end of the shaft.
