Abstract: A device for applying a fluid or pasty product onto keratin fibres includes a longitudinal axis (XX), a rod extending about the longitudinal axis, a brush with a core of elongated shape, having two ends, and a series of spikes distributed over said core. The brush is mounted on a mounting end of the rod that is free to rotate about a pivot axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis between an aligned position, in which the core extends along the longitudinal axis, and an inclined position, with the pivot axis being located at a middle section of the core located between the two ends of the core. The application device has means for indexing a position of the brush arranged in the vicinity of and around the pivot axis.

Abstract: A cosmetic kit includes a composition that includes a wax emulsion and a polymer. The kit further includes an applicator with a plurality of bristles. At least one of the bristles is made of a thermoplastic elastomer having a hardness in a range of 32 shore D to 38 shore D. Also disclosed is a method of applying a cosmetic compound. The method includes the step of depositing the cosmetic compound on an applicator, wherein the composition includes a wax emulsion and a polymer. The applicator includes a plurality of bristles, and at least one of the bristles is formed from a thermoplastic elastomer having a hardness in a range of 32 shore D to 38 shore D. The method further includes the step of brushing the applicator against a keratin fiber to transfer the cosmetic compound from the applicator to the keratin fiber.

Abstract: A mascara packaging set includes a container with a wiper having an aperture and a mascara composition stored within the container. The mascara composition includes a wax emulsion, at least one polymer, and fibers and has a viscosity in a range of 10,000 cps to 20,000 cps. The kit also includes an applicator configured to extend into the container through the aperture. The applicator has an elongate core and bristles extending radially therefrom. At least one of the bristles is formed from a thermoplastic elastomer having a hardness in the range of 32 shore D to 38 shore D. The bristles form rows along the core in an axial direction, wherein rows of a first pair of adjacent rows are spaced farther apart from each other in a circumferential direction than a second pair of adjacent rows. The first pair of adjacent rows define a reservoir.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an applicator device for applying a product of the fluid or pasty type to keratin fibres, comprising a central core (1) having an elongate shape which extends along a longitudinal axis XX, at least one row of elongate spikes (2) comprising a first end (20) embedded in the core and a second, free end (21). According to the invention, at least one of the spikes (2) is delimited by a first flat face (200) that is coincident with a longitudinal plane, known as the reference plane P, and by a second flat face (210) that forms an angle of between 10 and 180° with said first flat face, said at least one spike comprising a first region (22) that is embedded in the core (1) and has a substantially constant cross section in the form of a portion of a circle, and a second region (23) having a variable cross section that is situated substantially in the longitudinal continuation of said first region (22).

Abstract: A wiping device, for a device for packaging and applying a fluid or pasty product, which includes first and second independent parts, the first part having a hardness greater than or equal to a hardness of the second part, the first part having a male portion formed by a first skirt, the second part having a deformable wiping lip and a female portion formed by a second skirt and arranged so as to receive, by snap-fitting, the first skirt of the first part. The wiping device has locking means for locking the snap-fitting of the first skirt in the second skirt.

Abstract: An applicator device for applying a fluid or paste product to keratin fibres or to the skin (epidermis), that includes an elongate core which extends along a longitudinal axis X and has a longitudinal cylindrical shape and a plurality of projections distributed across said core, each projection extending from an anchoring end in the core towards a free end and being integral with said core, and each projection having, at the free end, a means for the uptake and retention of a quantity of fluid or paste product.

Abstract: An applicator device for applying a fluid or paste product to keratin fibers or to the skin (epidermis) includes an elongate core which extends along a longitudinal axis X and has a longitudinal cylindrical shape and a plurality of projections distributed across the core. Each projection extends from an anchoring end, in the core, towards a free end and being integral with said core. Each projection also includes, from the anchoring end towards the free end, a proximal stage, a bridge section and a distal stage, wherein at least one of the proximal stage and the bridge section forms a flexible link.

Abstract: An applicator device for applying a fluid or pasty product to keratinous fibres, includes a core or technically equivalent elongate element extending along a longitudinal axis XX, a plurality of elongate spikes, a first end of which is embedded in the core or in the technically equivalent element and a second end of which is free, the spikes and the core or the technically equivalent element being integral, i.e. formed in one piece. The core and/or the technically equivalent element has at least one recess or negative relief opening on the outer surface of the core or the technically equivalent element at an opening, the at least one recess being obtained by undercutting.
