Abstract: A brush with magnetic filaments is described. The brush may be used, for example, as a brush for applying a cosmetic material. The filaments of the brush may, in one example, be made of a synthetic material infused with magnetic material.

Abstract: A cervical cells sampling device includes a tubular sleeve with a first opening and an opposing second opening, an elongate rod having a retractable part with a mounting tip enclosed within the sleeve and a handle section extending out from the sleeve through the second opening. A cell collecting construct with a resilient sheath is stretched to cap onto the mounting tip of the rod and the stretched resilient sheath is in a constant contracting state that the cell collecting construct and portion of the retractable part are allowed to project out, or retract into sleeve, through the first opening by moving the handle section. A stripping member is fabricated within the sleeve to detach the resilient sheath from the mounting tip upon retracting the retractable part into the sleeve up to a predetermined level and the resilient sheath resumes original form once detached from the mounting tip, while prodding the rod back into the sleeve pushes the construct out of the sleeve.

Abstract: An applicator for applying a product includes a motor and a switch for automatically rotating and/or oscillating an applicator head. By virtue of having a motor with a throttling gear, the applicator is capable of rotating and/or oscillating at controlled frequencies during application of cosmetic, medicinal, or other products to a surface.

Abstract: An adjustable implement includes an adjustable applicator assembly comprising a variably adjustable applicator selectively pivotable at least about 90 degrees relative to a body or handle of the implement. By virtue of having a variably adjustable applicator, the adjustable implement is capable of applying a product at various different angles of orientation.

Abstract: A compact system for applying a product to a surface including a removable applicator slideably housed in a compact comprising an actuator and a slide-mechanism. In one example, the slide-mechanism is configured to magnetically couple with a magnet in the base of the applicator, and slides the applicator into and out of the compact. By virtue of having a removable applicator, the compact system is portable and convenient, while at the same time the applicator remains clean and intact until a time of use.

Abstract: A content rendering cosmetic container has an electronic display coupled to a shell of the cosmetic container for rendering content associated with cosmetics. The cosmetic container includes one or more selectable buttons coupled to the shell of the cosmetic container for selecting content associated with cosmetics to be rendered on the electronic display. Each of the one or more selectable buttons may be linked to a specific location for housing a cosmetic product in the cosmetic container, and/or each cosmetic product may be associated with at least one content to be rendered on the electronic display.
