Abstract: A cosmetic container may comprise a tubular sleeve that defines a cavity. The tubular sleeve may include a first end with a first opening and a second end with a second opening. The first opening may be defined by at least one upper sidewall which may include outer threads. The cosmetic container may include a cap assembly which may be configured to engage with the second opening of the second end, thereby sealing the second opening of the second end.

Abstract: Methods of manufacturing and fixtures for manufacturing containers, particularly for holding cosmetic products, using thin-walled tubes. One end of a container may be formed using an integral process, such as insert molding, while the other end of the container is formed using assembly steps, such as welding, to form a completed cosmetics container from a thin-walled tube.

Abstract: A cosmetic container may include a base assembly including an open top and a closed bottom, and a cap configured to be removably coupled to the base assembly. The base assembly may include a helical slot on an inner surface. The cosmetic container may include a shell configured to fit within the base assembly, and a cup configured to fit within the shell. The cup may be configured to engage with the helical slot to move up and down within the cosmetic container. The cup may be configured for holding a cosmetic product stick. The base assembly, the shell, the cup and the cap may be formed from a same eco-friendly material.

Abstract: A cosmetic container may include a bottle having a first open end and a second open end, defining a cavity therebetween. A sealing film may be adapted for placement at the second open end of the bottle, and a cap may be configured to engage with the second open end of the bottle, such that the cap fits over the sealing film thereby covering the sealing film and closing the second open end. The first open end may be adapted for dispensing a product held within the cavity of the bottle.

Abstract: An applicator device or dispenser includes a stone applicator tip and a housing which may, in some examples, have a reservoir for containing a product, such as a cosmetics product or a medicinal product. The stone tip comprises a material that is capable of storing and retaining and/or transferring thermal energy during application of the product.

Abstract: A cosmetic pad, which may be useful, for example, for cleansing or other cosmetic-related activity, includes an upper portion, a lower portion coupled to the upper portion, and a non-porous covering. The non-porous covering is disposed around at least the upper portion. The upper portion has a lower durometer than the lower portion.

Abstract: A brush with a replaceable head includes a handle, a collar releasably coupled to the handle, and a brush head releasably coupled to the collar. The brush head may include a plurality of bristles. The collar may include an engagement member that releasably engages the brush head when the collar is coupled to the handle.

Abstract: Containers for distributing products are disclosed. The containers comprise a bottle having at least one sidewall and defining a cavity therein. The bottle has at least one opening. The containers also include an actuator comprising at least one sidewall defining a cavity therein. The bottle also includes a tip including an orifice. The orifice is configured to dispense product therethrough. The actuator is positioned between the bottle and the tip.

Abstract: Applicators for use in retrieving product (generally a liquid) from a reservoir, with an applicator for entry to the reservoir coupled to a cap. The cap is configured to be coupled to a bottle and to be selectively actuated by depressing a depressible actuator. The applicator includes a shaft and thermal tip formed from a material that stores and/or transmits thermal energy.

Abstract: An applicator device or dispenser includes an applicator tip assembly and a housing which may, in some examples, have a reservoir for containing a product, such as a cosmetics product or a medicinal product. The applicator tip assembly may be coupled to the housing and may comprise a thermal storage applicator portion having an application face for applying the product to a surface, the thermal storage applicator portion being made from a material that is capable of storing and retaining and/or transferring thermal energy during application of the product. The applicator tip assembly may further comprise a main body portion having a product delivery passageway extending through the main body portion for dispensing a product to the application face of the thermal storage applicator portion, the main body portion configured to at least partially enclose the thermal storage applicator portion at a periphery of the thermal storage applicator portion.
