A rotary feeding mechanism for axially feeding a rod-shaped body from a main body by rotating a tapered tip has a simple structure and can be produced economically. The main body is provided with plural open windows are arranged at a predetermined thread pitch along an axial direction of the main body. The tapered tip is installed rotatably on the main body, and a guide pipe extending toward the inside of the main body is fixed to the tapered tip. A holder for holding the rod-shaped body is housed in the main body, and the holder and the guide pipe are connected non-rotatably and movably in the axial direction. The outer periphery of the holder has an external thread which engages with the windows so that when the tapered tip is rotated, the holder moves in the axial direction while rotating via the guide pipe, and the rod-shaped body can be projected from or retracted into the main body.

The present invention relates to a multi-pencil type cosmetic container, in which a holder, to which a plurality of pencil leads are coupled, moves up or down by the rotation operation of a body and thus the plurality of leads are simultaneously move in or out so as to be used, wherein assembly parts are simplified while improving manufacturing productivity and economic efficiency, and the plurality of pencil leads can be mixed in a variety of different colors or formulations, thereby allowing easier and more various makeup.

A cosmetic applicator or assembly part for a cosmetic applicator, includes a thread spindle drive for moving a cosmetic mass lead relative to a lead housing tube accommodating the lead, wherein a thread is formed on an inner peripheral surface of the lead housing tube, and the thread interacts with a complementary thread of a lead holder, and the thread moves the lead holder together with the lead relative to the lead housing tube translationally when the lead holder is rotated, wherein said thread of the lead housing tube is not a continuous thread, but consists of a plurality of thread islands that are spaced apart from each other, each of the plurality of thread islands having thread projections extending by less than 121 in a circumferential direction and being shaped and arranged such that an outer thread of the lead holder always engages with at least one thread island.
