  • Patent number: 8523469
    Abstract: A packaging and application device includes a first container which can contain a first product, with the first container including a deformable wall, so as to enable the first product to be dispensed through a first dispensing orifice. The device further includes a second container which can contain a second product, with the second container including a deformable wall, so as to enable the second product to be dispensed through a second dispensing orifice. According to an example, a coupling arrangement is mounted on the containers and joins the first and second containers together. The first and second dispensing orifices emerge separately at the level of a first application surface and a second application surface respectively, and the first and second containers are configured so as to be able to be actuated independently of one another.

  • Patent number: 7955018
    Abstract: A packaging and applicator device for a makeup composition includes a receptacle for containing the composition and an applicator for applying the composition. The applicator includes a handle of elongate shape, having a longitudinal axis and a rotary applicator member movable relative to the handle about an axis of rotation that does not coincide with the longitudinal axis, the applicator member defining an applicator surface that projects outwards between free surfaces of the applicator member and that is for loading with composition. The axis of rotation is inclined relative to the longitudinal axis and is not perpendicular thereto; and/or the applicator member is offset laterally relative to the handle so that a proximal side of the applicator surface is free.

  • Patent number: 7955015
    Abstract: A device for applying a product may include a container configured to contain a product and a case with a compartment configured to receive the container. The case may define an opening and the container may be configured to be moved relative to the case between a first angular position in which product in the container is accessible via the opening, and a second angular position in which product in the container is inaccessible. The device may further include an applicator. In some examples, the applicator may include a first portion configured to contribute to restricting axial movement of the applicator with respect to the case, and a second portion distinct from the first portion, wherein the second portion may be configured to contribute to rotationally coupling the applicator to the container so that movement of the applicator causes movement of the container between the first and second angular positions.

  • Patent number: 7594373
    Abstract: A device for packaging a product, particularly a make-up product. The device can be particularly advantageous for make-up samples, and includes a support preferably having a flat overall shape and two faces. The support has at least one cavity which opens onto at least one face through a first opening passing through the support, with the cavity containing the product. A lid is also provided, preferably also having a flat overall shape. The support and the lid are articulated by an articulation arrangement formed by: i) a sticker forming a mirror adhesively bonded onto one of the faces of the lid and onto one of the faces of the support; and/or ii) an adhesive sheet fixed onto one face of the lid and onto one of the faces of the support with the adhesive sheet closing off a second opening of the cavity, which is formed on the face of the support opposite from the face containing the first opening.
