MASCARA APPLICATOR

Abstract

A makeup applicator having a brush and a stamp at a distal end of the brush. The makeup applicator may apply mascara to eyelashes with the brush. The makeup applicator may apply a beauty mark to skin with the stamp. The stamp may pivot with respect to the brush. The stamp may be used as a stamp for a winged eye look. Accordingly, the stamp may be bend to the left and the right to allow for the winged eye look to be created on the left and right eyes. The stamp may be selectively pivotable about a longitudinal access of the mascara applicator. A method of creating a winged eye look with the makeup applicator.

Description

Claims

1. A method for applying makeup, the method comprising: providing a wand having a brush with a stamp coupled to a distal end of the brush;inserting the wand into a reservoir of a mascara product;applying, with the stamp in a first position, the mascara product to eyelashes of a first eye with the brush;pivoting the stamp from the first position to a second position; andpressing the stamp, in the second position, on a first surface to create a beauty mark on the first surface.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising inserting the wand into the reservoir before pivoting the stamp form the first position to the second position.

3. The method of claim 1, further comprising: pivoting the stamp from the second position to the first position;applying, with the stamp in the first position, the mascara product to eyelashes of a second eye with the brush;pivoting the stamp from the first position to a third position; andpressing the stamp, in the third position, on a second surface to create the beauty mark on the second surface.

4. The method of claim 3, wherein the first surface is an eyelid of the first eye, the second surface is an eyelid of the second eye, and the beauty mark is a winged eye effect.

5. The method of claim 4, wherein the first position is a vertical position, the second position is a position pivoted to the left of the vertical position, and the third position is a position pivoted to the right of the vertical position.

6. The method of claim 1, further comprising locking the stamp in the second position prior to pressing the stamp on the first surface.

7. The method of claim 1, wherein the brush does not pivot and is fixed relative to the wand and the stamp.

8. The method of claim 1, wherein the mascara product is applied by only the brush when the stamp is in the first position and the mascara product is applied by only the stamp when the stamp is in the second position.

9. The method of claim 1, wherein pressing the stamp comprises pressing a stamp surface that is at least partially non-planar on the first surface.

10. The method of claim 9, wherein pressing the stamp comprises rolling the stamp surface from a first end to a second end to apply the mascara product to the first surface.

11. A method for operating a makeup applicator, the method comprising: providing a wand having a wand longitudinal axis and a brush with a stamp coupled to a distal end of the brush, the stamp being in a first position;pivoting the stamp in a first direction to a second position that is angled with respect to the wand longitudinal axis; andpivoting the stamp in a second direction to a third position that is angled with respect to the wand longitudinal axis, the second direction being opposite the first direction,wherein the stamp has a stamp longitudinal axis that is substantially coincident with the wand longitudinal axis in the first position.

12. The method of claim 11, wherein the brush has a brush longitudinal axis, the brush longitudinal axis and the wand longitudinal axis being coincident in the first position, the second position, and the third position.

13. The method of claim 11, wherein the second position and the third position are at the same angle on opposing sides of the wand longitudinal axis.

14. The method of claim 11, wherein the first position is a vertical position, the second position is a position pivoted to the left of the vertical position, and the third position is a position pivoted to the right of the vertical position.

15. The method of claim 11, wherein the brush does not pivot and is fixed relative to the wand and the stamp.

16. The method of claim 11, wherein the stamp comprises: a first substantially planar surface;a second substantially planar surface; anda stamp surface extending between the first substantially planar surface and the second substantially planar surface, the stamp surface being at least partially non-planar,wherein the first substantially planar surface and the second substantially planar surface taper along the stamp longitudinal axis from the proximal end of the stamp to the distal end of the stamp.

17. The method of claim 11, further comprising: a user applying a makeup product only with the brush when the stamp is in the first position; andthe user applying the makeup product only with the stamp when the stamp is in the second position or the third position.

18. The method of claim 17, wherein applying the makeup product with the stamp comprises pressing the stamp on a surface to create a beauty mark on the surface.

19. The method of claim 18, further comprising locking the stamp in the second position prior to pressing the stamp on the surface.

20. The method of claim 18, wherein pressing the stamp comprises pressing a stamp surface that is at least partially non-planar on the surface.
