Abstract
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.
