The present invention will be described by way of exemplary embodiments, but not limitations, illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which like references denote similar elements, and in which:
Various aspects of the illustrative embodiments will be described using terms commonly employed by those skilled in the art to convey the substance of their work to others skilled in the art. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention may be practiced with only some of the described aspects. For purposes of explanation, specific numbers, materials and configurations are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the illustrative embodiments. However, it will be apparent to one skilled in the art that the present invention may be practiced without the specific details. In other instances, well-known features are omitted or simplified in order not to obscure the illustrative embodiments.
Various operations will be described as multiple discrete operations, in turn, in a manner that is most helpful in understanding the present invention. However, the order of description should not be construed as to imply that these operations are necessarily order dependent. In particular, these operations need not be performed in the order of presentation.
The phrase “in one embodiment” is utilized repeatedly. The phrase generally does not refer to the same embodiment, however, it may. The terms “comprising”, “having” and “including” are synonymous, unless the context dictates otherwise.
The eyeliner applicator system 100 includes a make-up compact 110, an eyeliner base 120, an eyeliner applicator 130 and a mirror 140. The make-up compact 110 is has a top interior facing 112 and a bottom interior surface 114. The top interior facing 112 is foldably attached to the bottom interior surface 114 and can also be easily secured closed with a fastener 116 such as a snap clip 118 or other suitable fastener. The eyeliner base 120 is disposed within the bottom interior surface 114 and can be a liquid, a powder, a liquid and powder mix, a liquid gel or any other suitable eyeliner substance type. The eyeliner applicator 130 has a distal end 132 that has a curved shape pad 134 and an elongated handle 136. The eyeliner applicator 130 is approximately 3 inches in length, but can be other suitable lengths as well and is disposable. The curved shape pad 134 accommodates a curved shape of a user's closed eyelid and the elongated handle 136 is ergonomically designed to be relatively easier and more comfortably grasped and to relatively more easily position the curved shape pad 134 to apply the eyeliner base 120. The curved shaped pad 134 is disposable and can be replaced with similar curved shaped pads 134 to be disposed on the distal end 132. A user simply presses the distal end 132 of the eyeliner applicator 130 into an approximate 2½″ by 2½″ make-up compact 110 filled with an eyeliner base 120 with a blend of powder and liquid or other suitable type of eyeliner base and places the distal end 132 of the eyeliner applicator 130 on a user's eyelid, resulting in a relatively more precise lined eyelid. The mirror 140 is disposed on the top interior facing 112 that can be positioned in a generally vertical position 142 when the make-up compact 110 is opened to allow a user to watch themselves apply eyeliner utilizing the components of the eyeliner applicator system 100 and to relatively more easily and accurately apply eyeliner than traditional eyeliner components and systems.
The eyeliner applicator system combines an eyeliner applicator and a make-up compact into a single system that allows a user to apply eyeliner in a single step that is relatively easier to apply properly applied eyeliner. The eyeliner applicator system offers relatively quick and easy application of eyelid make-up. The eyeliner applicator system includes an approximate 3″ eyeliner applicator plus a relatively thin disposable pad on the distal end of the eyeliner applicator and precisely lines a user's eyes with eyeliner. A user simply presses the curved distal end of the applicator into an approximate 2½″by 2½″ compact filled with a blend of powder and liquid or other suitable type of eyeliner and places the distal end of the eyeliner applicator on the lid, where eyeliner is disposed on the distal end of the eyeliner applicator, resulting in a relatively more precise lined eye. Among the many users who may find the eyeliner applicator system relatively convenient and easy to use are make-up artists and other suitable users. The eyeliner applicator system features a disposable applicator with disposable pads. The eyeliner applicator system may be readily available in a variety of colors and aesthetic styles.
While the present invention has been related in terms of the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art will recognize that the invention is not limited to the embodiments described. The present invention can be practiced with modification and alteration within the spirit and scope of the appended claims. Thus, the description is to be regarded as illustrative instead of restrictive on the present invention.
