Abstract
The invention provides a dual cosmetic applicator and container for applying cosmetic, especially mascara, to the eyelashes in which a pair of eyelash brushes engage each other on the inside of a container holding a quantity of cosmetic. When an eyelash brush is removed from the container its bristles rub against the bristles of the other brush so as to mix the cosmetic which is applied to the brush. This mixing action tends to thin thixotropic cosmetic like mascara, making application of mascara to the eyelashes easier.
