  • Cosmetic Applicator
    Publication number: 20100269846
    Abstract: An apparatus for applying a cosmetic, such as mascara to eyelashes, includes a handle, a stem, and an applicator head coupled to the stem and supported for rotation relative to the handle. An actuator moves the applicator head in a rotational oscillating motion, in which the applicator head automatically rotates in both a first rotational direction and a second rotational direction in response to operation of the actuator. Additionally or alternatively, the actuator may also radially translate the applicator head, move the applicator head through an angle of rotation less than 360 degrees, and vary the rotational speed of the applicator head. The applicator head may include protrusions that are spaced to define gaps during rotation, thereby to promote coverage and separation of eyelashes.

  • Snack chip having improved dip containment and a grip region
    Publication number: 20020172748
    Abstract: The present invention relates to snack pieces having an improved dip containment region for providing improved dip holding containment region. More particularly, the present invention relates to snack pieces having an improved dip containment region for providing improved dip holding containment region with a separate grip region that avoids messy finger contact with the dip by a user. Even more particularly, the present invention relates to snack pieces having an improved dip holding containment region with a grip region that avoids messy finger contact with the dip that is readily communicated and discernible to the user by the shape of the snack piece and a method to make such a snack piece.
