This application claims priority to and the benefit of US provisional patent application number 61/995,985 filed Apr. 28, 2014, the contents of which are incorporated herein in its entirety.
BACKGROUNDThe present invention is directed to a cosmetic applicator, and more particularly to an applicator capable of dispensing multiple different cosmetics.
Women's cosmetics can include a variety of products, for example eyeliner, eyelash and eyebrow mascara, foundation, blush or rouge and lipstick or gloss. All of these products come in a variety of applicators or containers, including pencils, tubes, trays, jars or cases. Typically each of these products are sold in their own separate container which makes it difficult to transport all of these products. Carrying all of these products in a separate container in a purse, for example, is problematic in that a larger purse is required and it is difficult to find a specific product within the purse when desired. Consequently a need exists for a cosmetic applicator which is capable of dispensing multiple different cosmetic products within the same applicator.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONThe present invention is directed to a cosmetic applicator capable of dispensing multiple different cosmetics contained within the applicator. The applicator includes a housing having a plurality of chambers located therein each containing a separate cosmetic that can be selectively dispensed through an opening in the housing. For example, the housing would include dividers within the housing to define individual compartments in which the different cosmetic would be located. The cosmetic would be in tube form and attached to a base which would have a finger actuator extending through a slot in the side of the housing which could be manipulated to raise and lower the cosmetic out of and back into the housing for application to a user's face. The housing would include a cap or a cover to protect the cosmetic located within the housing when not in use.
