Abstract: Compact (1) for packaging cosmetic products for face care, the said compact comprising a cover (10) usually provided with an inner mirror (60) and a base (20) typically provided with an intermediate support for at least one cup that will contain a cosmetic product (70), the said base and the said cover each having a sidewall (11 and 21). The gripping area comprises two areas (22 and 23) located on the sidewall on each side of the plane of symmetry of the compact and having a height greater than the height of the remainder of the sidewall. Preferably, the sidewall (21) of the base (20) is made of elastomer, at least in the gripping area (22 and 23). The compact may comprise a side closer placed in the gripping area, under an elastomer layer. In another embodiment, the base comprises a flat base (25), a lip (50) acting as a sidewall (21) and a pusher (40) in the shape of an arc or U, trapped between the lip and the base.

Abstract: The applicator (1, 1?) of a cosmetic product (6) includes a manual gripping element (2) and an application member (3) of the product (6), and is characterized in that: a) the application member (3) includes at least one fixed element (30) and one rotating element 131) , forming an application roller free to rotate about the fixed element (30) about a rotation axis (10), b) the fixed element (31) is typically fixed to the manual gripping element (2), c) the fixed element (30) and the rotating element (31) are fixed by reversible or irreversible cooperation. Advantages are easier application resulting in a different appearance.

Abstract: An applicator dispenser (1) includes a) a receptacle (2) forming a reservoir (27) having a sidewall (20), an upper dome (22) with a plurality of orifices (24, b) a cap (3) including a head (30) and a side skirt (31), and c) an application element (4) for the powder housed between the head (30) and the element dome (22). The application element (4) is fixed to the cap (3) to form an applicator (9). It has an H/D shape factor equal to at least 1.5, so that the applicator dispenser (1, 1?) is longitudinal and has an axial direction (10), where H is the height and D denotes its maximum transverse dimension.

Abstract: An applicator dispenser includes a body forming a reservoir for the cosmetic product provided with a neck threaded on the outside, a sidewall and a bottom, an applicator having a head threaded on the inside forming a gripping element, an axial rod fixed at its upper end to the head and at its lower end to an application element, a wiper having an upper part fixing the wiper to said neck, and a lower narrowed part designed to wipe the application element. The wiper has an intermediate axial connecting part, which together with the upper and lower narrowed part form a single piece.

Abstract: The distributor-applicator mobile in the axial direction includes a body forming a cavity provided with an opening, and an applicator comprising a threaded cap forming a member for gripping the applicator, a rod and an application element: a) the body comprises a member for forming an axial partition in the cavity so as to form an axial sequence of N staged compartments in the cavity denoted C1 to CN, where N varies from 2 to 4, b) the forming member comprises N?1 separation elements being denoted Si between two successive compartments, c) each compartment Ci, where i>1, comprises a volume forming a storage element for the product, and a free volume forming a communication, such that the application element can access each compartment in order to collect the corresponding products.

Abstract: A distributor includes a body, typically provided with a lateral skirt and a bottom, and a cap, provided with an inner dome. The body includes at least one orifice for filling a cavity with the product, a device for closing the orifice, a device for attaching the product to the body, and a lower skirt forming a lower cavity with the bottom, capable of cooperating with the cap so as to form a system for stacking the distributor.

Abstract: A dispenser of a product includes a body forming a lateral wall in a moulded plastic material with, at its upper end, an upper orifice, and at its lower end, a bottom including a circular lower orifice. The lateral wall includes an assembly of an inner jacket including an inner tubular part, of area cross-section Si and thickness Ec, and an outer body including an outer tubular part of area cross-section Se>Si and thickness Ei, said thicknesses Ec and Ei being taken typically below 2 mm, so as to be able to manufacture the dispenser by high throughput moulding and without dimensional distortion of the inner jacket and of the outer body of plastic material, and in such a way that the outer body is able to have a cross-section different from that of the inner jacket.

Abstract: The distributor of a cosmetic product comprises a body typically forming a reservoir for the product and an applicator. The applicator comprises a longitudinal element with a manual gripping member fixed to its upper end and an element of application of the cosmetic product at its lower end, the application element cooperating with the lower end in rotation, and comprising a member for transferring or temporarily retaining the product. The transfer or temporary retention member comprises a lower end positioned in the axial direction with respect to the lower end of the product, such that the latter does not project beyond the axial level of the lower end of the transfer member.

Abstract: Packaging for cosmetic products, typically including a case having a cover provided with a first hinge portion, a recessed bottom possibly including an intermediate support fixed to the said bottom and a receptacle in which the cosmetic products will be placed, the bottom or the mesh being provided with a second hinge portion, a hinge with an axis of rotation R formed by cooperation between the first and second portions of the hinge, a means of locking and unlocking the said cover with respect to the bottom or mesh, typically a clasp, and if possible an applicator for the cosmetic product. The packaging has a driving means to at least partially open the cover, and an opposing braking means, the driving means and braking means respectively applying a driving torque CM=M(&agr;) and a braking torque CF=F(&agr;) on the cover in opposite directions and with a predetermined force depending on the opening angle &agr; of the cover.

Abstract: A case for pasty cosmetic, pharmaceutical or like products comprising an outer casing co-operating with a coaxial inner casing in which is axially slidably mounted a cup carrying a lipstick so that the relative rotation of both casings results in an axial displacement of said cup, the inner casing being made fast to a base through the medium of a tube provided in the bottom wall of the base comprising cogging elements joined by ring portions which comprise on their outer faces ribs for co-operation with flutes formed on the inner surface of a skirt provided at the lower part of the inner casing, this device being applicable to the fastening of an inner casing upon a base within a lipstick case.
