A kit for preparing different colors and shades of facial cosmetic liquid make up which employs at least one relatively large container almost filled with a first cosmetic liquid. The first liquid when applied to the skin of a user imparts a different selected one of a plurality of basic colors to the skin. The first liquid is an oil in water emulsion with water as the external phase. The kit also employs at least one small sealed plastic pouch containing a small quantity of a second cosmetic liquid which when combined and mixed with the first liquid in the container will almost fill the container. The mixture of liquids when applied to the skin imparts a different selected one of shades associated with the selected color to the skin. The second liquid is an oil in water emulsion with water as the external phase.

Facial cosmetic liquid make up kit

First, second and third elongated members are disposed along a common line of elongation. The first member has a first closed end having a centrally disposed curved outer surface of circular shape with a first group of openings and a second open end. The second member has a third closed end and a fourth open end. The third end has a recessed outer surface of circular shape containing a second like group of openings and a third group of openings spaced from the curved circular surface. The third member has a fifth open end and a sixth closed end. The first end of the first member is snap fitted and rotatably disposed in the third end of the second member. The two curved surfaces are in mating engagement. Depending upon the position of relative rotation, the second group of openings can be aligned with or out of alignment with the first group of openings. The fifth end of the third member detachably engages the fourth end of the second member. A brush containing bristles is disposed in the third member and is slidably movable back and forth along the line of elongation when the third member is detached from the second member. A hollow elongated capsule open at one end and closed at the other is adapted to be filled with cosmetic powder and to be slidably disposed in the first member. When so disposed, the open end of the capsule is adjacent the second end of the first member.

A first hollow cylindrical member has a first open end and an opposite closed second end with a plurality of spaced off set axially disposed channels therein. A hollow capsule filled with cosmetic powder is closed at one end and open at the other. The capsule is inserted into the first member with the capsule open end adjacent the second end and communicating with the channels. A second hollow cylindrical member has opposite open third and fourth ends. The inner surface of the second member adjacent the third end is threaded. The second end rotatably engages the third end. A hollow cylindrical element is disposed in the second member and is open at both ends. The element has a thread on its outer surface which engages the inner surface thread of the second member. The element has a like plurality of prongs which are engagable with and disengagable from the channels. Manual rotation of the first member relative to the second member causes the element to rotate in and move back and forth along the axial direction to either cause the prongs to engage and close the channels or to be disengaged from and open the channels. A third member contains a brush and is detachably engaged via an open end to the fourth end.

A hollow elongated capsule containing cosmetic powder slides removably into an open end of a first elongated hollow member. The other end of the first member has a plurality of spaced openings. A second hollow elongated member has two opposite ends, one of which engages the other end of the first member. A plate disposed in the second member intermediate its ends has openings aligned with the first member openings. An element slidably disposed in the second member has openings which can be moved into alignment with the plate and member openings or which can be moved out of such alignment. A brush having parallel bristles with powder applying tips is disposed in the third member with the tips disposed adjacent the second member. The brush and third member have manually operated cooperating elements for establishing a first position at which the bristles extend almost entirely out of the third member and a second position at which the bristles are disposed within the third member.

A first elongated hollow cylindrical member has a first open end and a second closed end. The second end has a central opening and an exposed face carrying an offset circular groove surrounding the opening. A hollow elongated capsule filled with cosmetic powder is slidably and removably disposed in the first member and has an open end adjacent the second end. A second elongated hollow cylindrical member has a third closed end and an opposite open fourth end. The third end has an exposed face with a transverse slot therein. The slot has a hole. The second and third ends are rotatably engaged. An elongated member is slidable in the slot and has a chamber and a transversely disposed prong. The prong rides in the groove and is moved back and forth in the slot as the first and second members are rotated relatively to each other. These members have a first rotational position at which the chamber and opening are aligned and a second rotational position at which the hole and opening are aligned. A brush carrying third member is engaged at its brush carrying end to the fourth end.

A hollow elongated capsule containing cosmetic powder slides removably into an open end of a first elongated hollow member. The other end of the first member has a plurality of spaced openings. A second hollow elongated member has one end with like openings which is engaged to the other end of the first member. These two members have a first position of relative rotation at which the openings are aligned and a second position at which these openings are out of alignment. A third elongated hollow member has an open end detachably engaging the opposite end of the second member. A brush having parallel bristles with powder applying tips is disposed in the third member with the tips disposed adjacent the second member. The brush and third member have manually operated cooperating elements for establishing a first forward position at which the bristles extend almost entirely out of the third member, a third withdrawn position at which the brush is disposed within the third member and a second forward position at which the brush is disposed intermediate the first and third positions.

A first elongated hollow member has a first open end and an opposite closed end with a plurality of small spaced openings therein. A hollow elongated capsule, adapted to be filled with cosmetic powder, closed at one end and open at the other, is removably slidable into and out of the first member. The capsule, when inserted in the first member, has its open end adjacent the second end of the first member and its closed end closing the first end of the second member. A second elongated hollow member has first and second open ends, the first member having its closed end disposed in the first end of the second member. The second member has a cam in the first end with openings aligned with the openings in the closed end of the first member. The second member has a cam follower disposed slidably in the second member, the follower and said cam always being engaged, the follower and cam having a first normal position of engagement at which the follower seals the cam openings and a second momentary position of engagement at which the follower exposes the cam opening. A third elongated hollow member has an open end. A brush has a plurality of essentially parallel bristles with powder applying tips, the brush being disposed in the open third member end, the brush carrying end of the third member being disposed in the second end of the second member and engaging the follower. The second member is slidable back and forth along the third member between a first normal position at which the cam and follower are in the first position of engagement and a second momentary position at which the cam and follower are in the momentary second position of engagement.

A first elongated hollow member has first and second opposite ends, the first end being open, the second end being closed and having a plurality of small spaced apart openings therein. A hollow elongated capsule adapted to be filled with cosmetic powder is closed at one end and open at the other. The capsule is removably slidable into and out of the first member. The capsule, when inserted in the first member, has its open end adjacent the second end of the first member and its closed end closing the first end of the first member. A second elongated hollow member has a first end with a like plurality of like openings and a second open end, the second member rotatably engaging the first member with the first end of the second member adjacent the second end of the first member. The first and second members have a first position of relative rotation at which the openings in the two members are aligned and a second position of relative rotation at which the openings in the two members are out of alignment. A third elongated hollow member has an open end detachably engaging the second end of the second member and has an opposite closed end. A brush has a plurality of essentially parallel bristles with powder applying tips. The brush is disposed in the third member with the tips adjacent the second member. The brush and the third member have manually operated cooperating elements for establishing a first forward position at which said bristles will extend almost entirely out of the third member and a second withdrawn position at which said brush is disposed within the third member.
