Abstract: Cosmetic applicators, and methods for making and using the same, are described. The applicators are selectively configured so as to include, without limitation, one or more surfaces operable to access various confined spaces, such as but not limited to crevices, creases, folds, and the like of a human face. The applicators may be shaped in configurations selected from the group consisting of teardrops, ovals, diamonds, squares, multi-points, and combinations thereof. The applicators are provided with a relatively weak adhesive material disposed on a surface opposite the operative surface so as to permit the user to place the applicator on a fingertip and manipulate the applicator with having to grasp the applicator.

Abstract: Cosmetic applicators, and methods of making the same, are described. The applicators are selectively scored so as to enable an outer surface layer of the applicator to be removed, e.g., after the outer surface layer has been soiled, thus exposing a new and unsoiled underlying surface layer. The applicators are also selectively scored so as provide handles to allow the user to prevent the soiling of their hands.

Abstract: A flexible foam wedge, designed with a finger pocket and application tip that allows for direct support of the applicator from a finger digit particularly useful for the application of cosmetics. The foam applicator comprises a base block defining the finger opening. The application tip, having any of a plurality of configurations extends from the base block. The applicator can be an integral unit, or can comprise separate components connected together. Further, various methods of manufacturing and using the applicator are provided.
