Description

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an applicator;

FIG. 2 is a right side view thereof, the left side view being a mirror image to the right side view;

FIG. 3 is a top view thereof; and,

FIG. 4 is a bottom view thereof.

The surface shading shown in FIGS. 1-2 indicates that the claimed applicator is transparent. Material, texture, color, surface finish and surface ornamentation form no part of the claimed design.

The dot-dash-dot lines represent the bounds of the claimed design that form no part of the claimed design. The remaining broken lines illustrate portions of the applicator that form no part of the claimed design.

Claims

The ornamental design for an applicator, as shown and described.
