The brush for the application of fluid products, particularly for powdery, creamy, liquid products or the like, comprises a plurality of spreading elements to spread a fluid product on a work surface and having a first ending part associated with a support element and a second free ending part, opposite to the first ending part and adapted to take and apply the product, in which the support element is made of a flexible material.

The invention relates to a bristle carrier and bristles (1) formed thereon, the surface of the bristles (1) being microstructured at least in segments, in that a plurality of grains (2, 3) protrude haphazardly from the bristle core (4) in the region of the microstructured surface and are connected to the bristle core (4) only along less than 40%, preferably less than 35% of the outer surface thereof, and comprise an average diameter (M1, M2) of less than or equal to 125 m, preferably less than or equal to 90 m.

The method for manufacturing a makeup brush includes: molding a ferrule and welding bristles to the ferrule. The ferrule includes a ferrule inner end; a ferrule outer end; a ferrule body; an interior, and a well. The well has a well base parallel to the ferrule outer end. The well base has an inner side and an outer side. The step of welding the bristles includes the steps of disposing the bristles in contact with the outer side of the well base and exposing the inner side of the well base to welding.

Discussed herein is a cosmetic system including a cosmetic applicator, and a cosmetic composition. The cosmetic applicator includes a deformable container that stores the cosmetic composition. The applicator includes an applicator head having a proximal end and a distal end, wherein the distal end is connected to the deformable container. The applicator also includes a slit along an axis of the applicator head and an interior channel in the applicator head. Further, the applicator includes a flocked brush covering at least a portion of the slit, wherein the flocked brush includes a plurality of fibers, each fiber having a length in a first range of 0.5 millimeters (mm) to 3.0 mm, and a decitex (dtex) value in a second range of 5-50.

An apparatus (10) for forming multi-filament tufts for use in a brush seal includes a support (14) for retaining an end of a skein (16) of aligned wires or fibers and a glue reservoir (15) dimensioned to receive the skein end. The support (14) and the reservoir (15) being relatively movable whereby the end can be inserted in the glue reservoir (15) so that the adhesive can adhere the wires or fibers at the end to form the tuft. A cutter (13) is also provided for cutting the wires or fibers to length after the wires and fibers are retained by the support (14).
