An applicator device for cosmetic purposes which is intended in particular for trying out or selecting a suitable cosmetic stick or color shade thereof comprises a casing in the form of a tubular element accommodating a stick of cosmetic material having an application portion which projects from the casing. At its rear end portion remote from the application portion of the stick the tubular element internally provides a holding portion into which an externally screwthreaded portion of a forward feed spindle can be screwed. The spindle bears with the forward end against the inwardly disposed end of the stick while the rearward end of the spindle carries an actuating member which projects from the rear end of the tubular element for actuation of the spindle.

A pencil, in particular for cosmetic purposes, is made by casting a stick composition into a tubular body, which forms the shaft of the pencil and is preferably seamless, in such a way that a ready-to-use exposed stick point is formed during casting. The shaft may be of wood or plastics. In the case of a wooden shaft, a solid wooden rod of twice the shaft length may be bored out and otherwise worked and then separated along a central plane transverse to the axis of the rod to form a pair of shafts into which the stick composition can subsequently be cast.
