Abstract
A cosmetic pencil capable of advancing a soft cosmetic mass a short predetermined distance. The pencil has a lower barrel which includes a gripping disk stop. A hollow sheath member is held in the lower barrel and has an outwardly facing cam surface. A holding tube is rotatably inserted into the lower barrel and surrounds the sheath member. The holding tube also has a cam surface, and a spring member and gripping disk surround a push rod which extends into the center portion of the sheath which holds the soft cosmetic mass. Turning the holding tube forces the sheath inwardly, and the gripping disk holds the push rod steady with respect to the lower barrel and, thus, a small amount of cosmetic mass is moved upwardly by the movement of the sheath with respect to the push rod.
