A device for applying or removing nail polish or nail art has a replaceable cartridge with a distal end removably coupleable to a proximal end of a handle. The cartridge has a reservoir that contains a liquid, such as nail polish or nail polish remover and a flow control member (e.g., valve) actuatable to allow flow of the liquid out of the distal end of the cartridge. The handle has a flow path therethrough that extends between its proximal end to an applicator implement (e.g., brush, sponge) attached to its distal end, the flow path in fluid communication with the flow control member when the cartridge is coupled to the handle. Selective actuation of the flow control member by the user (e.g., by squeezing the cartridge) allows fluid to flow out the reservoir and through the flow path in the handle to the applicator implement for application of the fluid by the user to a finger or toe nail.

An applicator for skincare products includes a handle and an applicator head on or over which an applicator pad can be stretched or otherwise attach. The pad serves as a means to apply to the skin a variety of skincare products, such as lotions, oils, or serums for beauty, medication, or protection purposes. The desired skincare product is applied to the pad either by dipping the pad into the product, by direct application of the product to the pad, or ejected or expelled from within the applicator. The pad may be re-usable, washable, or disposable, and may have different shapes and textures.

System for taking up and applying a cosmetic composition onto a surface of the skin to be treated, having a predefined shape, the system including: —at least one support having a receiving surface which can take at least one incurved application configuration roughly matching the profile of the surface to be treated, and —a deformable application member mounted on the receiving surface of the support, having a first take-up and application surface and a second surface, opposite the first, which serves for attaching to the receiving surface of the support, the application member having, between the first and second surfaces, an adaptation layer of variable thickness, the shape of which is chosen so that the relief of the first surface of the application member, when the support is in the application configuration, corresponds more finely to that of the surface to be treated than that of the receiving surface of the support.

A system for sample, trial, and/or full-sized products includes a container defining at least one cavity, a product disk, a cosmetic product, an applicator, and an applicator engaging mechanism operably coupled with the applicator. The product disk includes a first side, a second side, a body extending therebetween, and a disk engaging mechanism. At least a portion of the first side of the product disk is selectively positionable adjacent to the at least one cavity of the container. The cosmetic product is at least partially disposed on the first side of the product disk. The applicator has first end that includes an applicator retention region. At least a portion of the second side of the product disk is positionable adjacent to the applicator retention region. The product disk is removably coupled with the cavity of the container and the applicator coupling mechanism.

To provide a refill insert that makes it possible to easily replace a molded cosmetic, such as lipstick, that is housed in a container body.

A refill insert 1 that is characterized in that an engagement piece 2 that can elastically deform toward the inside is provided to an outer side surface of an insert that holds a lower end of a molded cosmetic 5 and in that a first engagement protrusion 3 and a second engagement protrusion 4 are provided to an outer side surface of the engagement piece at different heights.

The present invention relates to an electric personal care apparatus comprising a skin contacting portion configured for contact with skin of a user. The skin contacting portion comprises a porous and compressible material. The porous and compressible material is configured to hold a fluid by capillary forces. The porous and compressible material is configured to be compressed due to pressure contact of the skin contacting portion with the skin of the user, and configured to release the fluid onto the skin of the user when the porous and compressible material is holding the fluid and being compressed.

Hair clip device (10) comprising: —a front element (12) extending between a first and a second extremity (12a, 12b); —two lateral elements (13, 14) provided with a first free end (13a, 14a) configured to rest on a user's auricle; —articulation means (15) fixed to the front element (12) and to the lateral elements (13, 14) and configured to allow a rotation of the lateral elements (13, 14) with respect to the front element (12), between an open position and a closed position; —locking means (B) configured to retain the lateral elements (13, 14) in the open position with respect to the front element (12) and comprising optionally (a) first and second retaining elements (16, 17) or (b) a cantilever element (160). The front element (12) is devoid of lenses and/or of a nosepiece and is provided with at least one ornamental element (11a, 11b, 11c).

The present invention relates to a process for curl-relaxing and/or straightening keratin fibres, such as the hair, which comprises the application to the fibres of one or more compositions comprising reducing agents, one or more compositions comprising organic solvents and a step of heat treatment of the fibres by means of a heating tool. The invention also relates to the use of the composition(s) comprising reducing agents and of the composition(s) comprising organic solvents in a process for curl-relaxing and/or straightening keratin fibres. Finally, the invention relates to a multi-compartment device or “kit” that is suitable for performing such a process.
