An interdental cleaner has a rod-shaped support, which is made of plastic and, in one end region thereof, is provided with a cleaning part made of a flexible plastic, and a handle part made of plastic. The support, at a support end facing the handle part, is integrally connected to the handle part in a connection region via a web. The connection region is configured as a joint, and the web is provided at least partially with a sheath made of a flexible plastic. Provision is made here that the web has at least one protruding web rib, and/or that at least one rib is formed on the outer face of the sheath.

A cosmetic kit includes a composition that includes a wax emulsion and a polymer. The kit further includes an applicator with a plurality of bristles. At least one of the bristles is made of a thermoplastic elastomer having a hardness in a range of 32 shore D to 38 shore D. Also disclosed is a method of applying a cosmetic compound. The method includes the step of depositing the cosmetic compound on an applicator, wherein the composition includes a wax emulsion and a polymer. The applicator includes a plurality of bristles, and at least one of the bristles is formed from a thermoplastic elastomer having a hardness in a range of 32 shore D to 38 shore D. The method further includes the step of brushing the applicator against a keratin fiber to transfer the cosmetic compound from the applicator to the keratin fiber.

A toothbrush head, including at least one two-component cleaning element and at least one bristle tuft element, is produced by injection molding. To achieve high design flexibility regarding the arrangement of the two-component cleaning elements and regarding the material choice, the two-component cleaning elements are manufactured separately or in an upstream molding step. Then the two-component cleaning elements, together with the bristle tufts, are over-molded with plastic material, to form the brush head or a part thereof.

An applicator assembly for a cosmetic product capable of occupying two positions including an opened position and a closed position is described herein. The applicator assembly includes a bottle without a neck, a wiper intended to scrape the excess cosmetic product from an applicator, and assembly means including at least one positioning means and at least one means for retaining the wiper in position on the bottle, the assembly means being intended to interact, at the proximal end of the bottle, so as to prevent a withdrawal movement of the wiper when the applicator passes into the bottle. As well, the inner surface of the wiper is designed to be in direct contact with the applicator when the applicator assembly passes from an opened position to a closed position and the wiper includes the assembly means.

An applicator for applying a composition such as a cosmetic, a medicinal or a personal care composition. The applicator comprising an applicator head comprising at least two types of bristles distributed along a longitudinal axis of a core in a manner that density of at least one type of bristles decreases gradually from one end to another end of the core to provide a gradual change in color/tone from one end to another end of the core and/or to create multiple bristle zones for enabling multiple performance characteristics like separation/combing, volumising, curling and lengthening of eyelashes to be achieved with the cosmetic applicator.

An applicator for mascara having an oblong general shape extending along a main axis, the applicator including at least three branches distributed around the main axis so as to define a cavity between them inside the applicator. The branches extend between a base to which they are connected and a free end of the applicator, which is remote from the base, and are shaped such that the cavity has a form of a surface of revolution around the main axis, said cavity being open by spaces formed between said branches. The branches extend in helical form around the main axis. The invention so developed makes it possible to obtain an applicator for mascara providing high autonomy by virtue of an internal cavity, the general three-dimensional configuration of which provides a good level of flexibility and enables easy application to the eyelashes.

An interdental brush comprising an interdental brush bar and a grip, the interdental brush bar having a central shaft and a joint portion, the central shaft surface axially staggering a plurality of first bristle sets and a plurality of second bristle sets, the first bristle set has two first bristles, and the second bristle set has two second bristles, and each of the first bristles is connected with an adjacent second bristles to form a squeegee. The grip connects the joint portion, and the squeegee can increase the contact area with the teeth to enhance the cleaning effect.

The objective of the present invention is to provide a mascara that can be easily fine-adjusted during makeup while securing the mascara liquid retention. The mascara according to one aspect of the present invention comprises a first brush extending in one direction and a second brush extending in the other direction. The first brush and the second brush are formed from different materials. A plurality of second strands constituting the second brush are coupled by means of a line seal. The plurality of second strands coupled by means of the line seal are additionally fixed by means of a fixing clip.

An oral care implement that includes a handle and a head. The head, which has an exposed front surface and an exposed rear surface, may include a support structure having a perimetric wall that defines a central opening and a monolithic cleaning unit including a pad located within the central opening and molded bristles extending from the pad. The support structure and the pad may collectively define the exposed front surface and the exposed rear surface of the head. Furthermore, the support structure may have a maximum thickness of 3 mm or less measured from a front surface of the perimetric wall to a rear surface of the perimetric wall.

A toothbrush includes a handle body made of a hard resin and a brush molded body (20) made of a soft resin and distal to the handle body. An insertion portion of the handle body protrudes toward the brush molded body, which has a head base portion (21), an insertion hole (22) into which the insertion portion is inserted and fitted, and a filament (23) that protrudes toward a front surface side of the head base portion. A maximum distance range between a base end of the filament and a back surface (21c) of the head base portion is 2.0 mm to 4.5 mm, and a ratio of the maximum length (L2) of the insertion hole to the maximum length (L1) of the head base portion is between 0.30 and 0.70.
