Patent number: 8015980Abstract: An applicator for use with an eyelash extension system that has a backbone and a backbone surface. A plurality of eyelash extensions are attached to the backbone. The applicator has a closure having a closure surface facing the backbone surface, and a pair of clips, each clip including a first arm, a second arm, and a pivot attached to the first arm and the second arm. A first holder is attached to each of the first arms to releasably attach the backbone to the first arms. Further there is a second holder attached to each of the second arms to releasably attach the closure to the second arms. The first and second arms are moveable between a first state wherein the first and second arms are spaced relative to each other and a second state wherein the first and second arms abut each other.Type: GrantFiled: October 3, 2008Date of Patent: September 13, 2011Assignee: The Procter & Gamble CompanyInventors: Thomas Elliot Rabe, Peter Jonathan Wyatt, Keri Ann Marsh, Matthew Clair Ehrman, Nancy Taylor Dempsey, Megan Mai Morys, Robert Scadding Moir, Peter Paul Beentje, Kate Reeves
