The present invention relates to an applicator for applying a cosmetic product to the eyelashes and/or eyebrows, having an applicator member with a core made of thermoplastic material, spikes moulded with the core, of which at least some are multiple, the multiple spikes having at least two branches extending in divergent directions away from the core, these branches connecting to one and the same base or having bases contiguous or close to each other, and a support having two metal branches twisted around the core.

An interdental brush (1) with a handle (2) and a brush head (3), wherein the brush head (3) includes a wire element (4), which extends from the handle (2) to a free end (5) and to which bristles (7) are attached, which decrease in length towards the free end (5) of the wire element (4) in at least one section, and wherein a bristle-free section (8) is formed at the free end (5) of the wire element (4).

An interdental cleaner has a rod-shaped carrier consisting of plastic, which has a cleaning device in an axial end area. The cleaning device comprises at least one fabric part, which extends in the direction of a longitudinal axis of the carrier and which has mutually intersecting thread systems with warp threads and weft threads. Provisions are made for the fabric part to be connected to the carrier and to radially project from same, wherein thread systems or the warp threads, on the one hand, and the weft threads, on the other hand, extend at an angle in the range of 20° to 70° to the longitudinal axis of the rod-shaped carrier and pass through the rod-shaped carrier.

A mascara brush comprising a core made of at least two wire sections twisted with one another along a wire-core longitudinal axis and a set of bristles made of bristles formed from plastic filaments, each of said bristles being held in a clamped manner between the two wire sections and being formed on the free ends thereof with or without a wedge-shaped bristle tip, wherein the bristles, at least partially, are formed from internally hollow filaments, a solution is provided with which the mass delivery in relation to the known applicators is improved. Same is achieved in that, in particular at least, the bristles formed on the inside in a hollow manner on the radially outward free ends have an oblique cut in the form of a simple wedge and comprise a wedge-shaped bristle tip comprising at least one cut surface forming a wedge.

Disclosed is a drinking straws cleaning system. Embodiments of the present invention discloses a drinking straws cleaning system that includes a flexible tubular elongated shaft including a first end, a second end, a body portion disposed in between the first end and the second end, a holding member configured at the second end, and one or more flaps configured proximal to the holding member at the second end, wherein the flexible tubular elongated shaft is passed through a hollow cavity of a straw through a top opening until the first end of the flexible tubular elongated shaft emerges out of a bottom opening of the straw, and then pulled therethrough to fully emerge out of the hollow cavity of the straw to clean the straw.

The present invention relates to a method for molding a shape of bristles of a mascara brush for eyelashes, a mold in used in the method. Two strands of iron cores are twisted and brush bristles respectively having dorsal portions are radially spread between the twisted iron cores through post-process so as to form a mascara brush, wherein the dorsal portions are formed by the brush bristles of the same length on the basis of the iron cores without difference in the length of the brush bristles, so that a mascara solution contained in the dorsal portion does not run down when being applied to eyelashes, and the mascara provides more volume and a beautiful eyelash make-up when a sufficient amount of the mascara solution is applied.
