Abstract
An applicator suitable for applying various powders and liquids in the fields of cosmetics, writing, painting, and medical treatment etc, which is particularly preferred as a make-up instrument such as a chip or a brush for applying eye shadow, and to a method of producing the applicator. The applicator has one or two coating parts obtained by grinding the peripheral part of either or both ends of an applicator main body which is made by bonding a fiber bundle with a synthetic resin solution, and a holding part being the unground middle part of the applicator main body, wherein the applicator main body impregnated with the resin solution is dried by hot air and the solvent in the resin solution is removed, thereby the resin is unevenly distributed and exists more in the peripheral part, and the peripheral part becomes harder than the central part.
