A cosmetic receptacle system consisting of a receptacle (), which is self-supporting or consists of flexible film over a majority of its volume and one end of which constitutes a withdrawal opening in the form of a tapered neck (), and a cap (), whereas the system also has several concealing sleeves () with different outer cross-sectional shapes and several adapter rings (), each adapter ring () having a socket for the neck () of the receptacle (), enclosing the latter in the circumference direction, and constituting at least one stop, which prevents the receptacle () from being pulled outward through the adapter ring (), and each adapter ring (), at its end oriented toward the bottom () of the receptacle (), having an adapter section () whose outer cross-section essentially corresponds to the outer cross-section that a concealing sleeve () that corresponds to this adapter ring () has at its free end oriented toward the neck () of the receptacle ().

Cosmetic receptacle system for producing cosmetic receptacles while using identical parts

Cosmetic unit () comprising a container () filled with a flowable cosmetic that can be removed through an access opening of the container (), and a cap () for closing the access opening of the container (), whereas the cap () carries an applicator (), wherein the container () is formed by a tank () made of cosmetic compatible material and a rigid outer shell surrounding at least the tank ().

Cosmetic unit with shell on demand

A wiper for wiping a cosmetic applicator, having a first component, in particular a holding section, for fastening the wiper to a cosmetic reservoir, and at least two wiper arms arranged thereon and exhibiting wiping action. The invention aims to provide a wiper, in which the intensity of the wiping and the resistance with which the wiper opposes the withdrawal of the applicator and the actual applicator section are in a favourable ratio to one another, and an actuation from outside in order to achieve a change to the distal diameter of the wiper inside the applicator container is not necessary. This aim is achieved in that at least one of the wiper arms is fastened by means of at least one hinge to the first component, in particular the holding section.

Wiper having hinged wiper arms

A wiper for wiping an associated cosmetic applicator, wherein the wiper has a retaining portion for securing the wiper on a cosmetic supply container, and also has at least two wiper arms, which are arranged on the container and subject the associated cosmetic applicator to wiping action. Each of the at least two wiper arms is arranged in an elastically movable manner on the retaining portion and has a shaft portion and a ring portion, which forms a wiper lip or a part thereof, wherein the extent of the ring portion in the circumferential direction is greater than the extent of the shaft portion in the circumferential direction.

Cosmetic wiper with wiper arms

An injection-molded plastic sealing cap having a tubular cap body with a longitudinal axis, which cap body transitions integrally into a plate that extends at least predominantly in a radial direction, in which the inner circumference of the tubular cap body has at least one holding projection that protrudes radially inward into the inner space that is circumferentially encompassed by the cap body, wherein the plate has a window that is associated with the at least one holding projection and is aligned with the holding projection with which it is associated, viewed in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the sealing cap.

Simplifed sealing cap with thread or bayonet closure and one-piece applicator equipped therewith

A cosmetics container for a liquid or pasty cosmetic, comprising a storage container having a removal opening, and a closure cap for opening and closing this removal opening. The closure cap can be detachably locked in its closing position on the storage container using at least one latching device that acts between the closure cap and the storage container. The cosmetics container further comprises at least one locking device which is able to assume at least one release position and at least one blocking position, and which in the blocking position blocks the latching element in such a way that a lock existing between the closure cap and the storage container cannot be released and the closure cap thus cannot be moved out of its closing position.

Cosmetics unit with latching closure that can be blocked

A cosmetics unit comprising a storage container and an applicator with two applicator arms, wherein each applicator arm carries one applicator element and the two arms are interconnected by a spring member, wherein the applicator has a bipartite applicator-side closure member for closing the cosmetics container, whose one part is a component of the one applicator arm and whose other part is a component of the other applicator arm, wherein the closure member has a bipartite threaded portion, the one threaded-portion part of which is formed on the one part of the closure member, and the other threaded-portion part of which is formed on the other part of the closure member, and with which the closure member can be screwed on to a container-side closure member.

Cosmetics unit with dual arm applicator

A cosmetic applicator, in particular a mascara applicator, having a first applicator region and at least one additional applicator region in which the applicator regions are connected to each other in movable fashion relative to each other by means of an articulation and/or the additional applicator region is connected to the first applicator region in a way that allows it to be slid in linear fashion relative to the first applicator region. A cosmetic product may also include the applicator.

Cosmetic applicator, in particular mascara applicator, and a cosmetic product

The invention relates to an applicator for applying a decorative cosmetic with a flowable consistency from a storage container, such as in particular mascara, comprising an applicator brush equipped with a bristle area consisting of outwardly protruding bristles and/or bristle discs that comprises stationary bristles and/or bristle discs, wherein the bristle area is additionally formed from mobile bristles and/or bristle discs whose base area can be displaced relative to the base area of the stationary bristles or bristle discs in such a way that a free space between the stationary bristles or bristle discs that can be loaded with the cosmetic by dipping the brush into the reservoir can be arbitrarily varied.

Cosmetic applicator with internal applicators that can be pushed out and rotated

A cosmetic brush having a bristle section having a main body and bristles that project out from the main body and with which a cosmetic product can be applied. A portion of the bristles forms first bristles that are integrally connected to the main body, wherein the first bristles consist of the same first plastic material as the main body. Another portion of the bristles forms second bristles, softer than the first bristles that are connected to the main body differently than the first bristles. The second bristles are integrally connected to each other by means of a connecting member disposed on the side of the main body wall facing away from the second bristles, and extend through through holes provided in a main body wall, wherein the main body and the connecting member are immediately adjacent to each other and adhesively connected to each other.

Cosmetic brush with bristles injection-molded to a main body

In an effect packaging for a cosmetic, in particular a mascara unit, comprising a reservoir for the cosmetic and a lucent covering surrounding the reservoir, wherein the reservoir and covering are at least partially spaced from one another, it is provided that a centering device cooperating with the bottom of the reservoir is provided at the bottom of the outer covering, and that the reservoir and the outer covering are engageable with one another by the cooperation of a locking groove and a locking bead by an axial relative movement, for achieving an attractive appearance accompanied with a cost-effective producibility.
