The method of painting flowers with a makeup brush or a specially made brush utilizes a brush with a plurality of attached bristles (conical or cylindrical) forming peripheral arcuate bristle segments. Bristle segments are cut/trimmed to form arcuate voids forming bristle fence slats (spaced apart). Central bristles are trimmed/cut to form a central void in the bristle head, forming a bristle fence about the void. The slats, loaded with petal flower color paint, are placed gently at a nascent flower location on a substrate. Sometimes prior, a dollop of ovary flower color is placed at the nascent center flower location before the loaded bristle fence slats are pressed about the ovary flower center. The special brush with the central void and the bristle fence slats may be made by the painter or manufactured.

The present invention relates to an applicator brush (1) for applying a cosmetic, make-up or care product to human keratin materials, especially the eyebrows, comprising a handle (4) which extends along a longitudinal axis (X) and, at the distal end thereof, an applicator head (2) having distal (2c) and proximal ends, and carrying a tuft (3) of bristles (6), the free ends (6a) of which define an applicator surface (5) that is convex towards the outside, in which applicator the applicator head (2) extends along a longitudinal axis (Y) that is not parallel to the longitudinal axis (X) of the handle (4), and wherein the tuft (3) of bristles (6) is arranged such that the transverse dimension of the applicator surface (5) increases towards the distal end (2c) of the applicator head (2), passing through a maximum, before decreasing from the location at which the transverse dimension is maximum towards the distal end (2c), the maximum of the transverse dimension of the applicator surface (5) being closer to the proximal end of the applicator head (2) than to the distal end (2c) thereof.

A cosmetic brush fiber includes five substantially parallel outer edges extending along a length of the cosmetic brush fiber; and five substantially parallel inner edges extending along the length of the cosmetic brush fiber, wherein the cosmetic brush fiber defines a star-shaped transverse cross section.

An applicator device including at least one holding section, at least one working tip, and a neck section connecting the holding section and the working tip, the device also includes a base body formed at least partially from a first plastic component, the base body being at least partially overmolded by at least one second plastic component that is softer than the first plastic component. In the region of the working tip, the at least one second plastic component at least partially coats the base body, and the coating includes outwardly projecting, bristle-type cleaning elements.

A broom and a manufacturing method thereof, the broom comprising at least a broom handle (1) and a broom core; the bottom of the broom handle (1) is provided with a transverse plate (2); the broom core is fixed on the transverse plate (2), and comprises more than one bundle of brushes; the brushes are provided with dispersed slender resilient strips (9) thereon for cleaning the ground; the resilient strips (9) take up more than ½ the length of the brushes; the side surface of the resilient strips (9) is arc-shaped, and tapers from top to bottom; the bottom end of the resilient strips (9) is a thickened layer. The brushes of the broom are made by cutting waste beverage bottles, solving the problem of environmental pollution caused by the waste beverage bottles; the manufacturing method is simple, thus reducing the production cost; the bottom end of the resilient strips (9) is a thickened layer (7), thus significantly improving wear resistance and stability and greatly extending service life compared to a bamboo broom.

A cosmetic brush fiber includes five substantially parallel outer edges extending along a length of the cosmetic brush fiber; and five substantially parallel inner edges extending along the length of the cosmetic brush fiber, wherein the cosmetic brush fiber defines a star-shaped transverse cross section.
