Vial for a liquid or pasty cosmetic product with a retractable application element

Abstract

The invention relates to a vial for a liquid or pasty cosmetic product, comprising an elongate body having a base area (11) and a free edge (12), a vessel (20) containing said product and which is translatably movable in the body between a bottom rest position and a top working position, an elastically compressible guide device with a stable retracted configuration determining the bottom positionand a maximum extension configuration determining the top position, comprising a hollow guide track in which a guide pin is inserted at least in the maximum extension configuration, as well as an application element (30) comprising a cap (40) suitable for being inserted inside the body and, in the opposite direction, for being at least partially extracted from said body by the elastically compressible guide device. An elastic insert (67) is provided next to said guide track to slow the movement of the guide pin when the elastically compressible guide device exits the maximum extension configuration thereof due to the cap being pushed into the body.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a bottle for liquid or cream cosmetic products, comprising an applicator element equipped with an applicator inserted in a tubular reservoir containing the product to be applied, outside the product application period; the present invention The invention applies especially, though not exclusively, to mascara jars, and even lip gloss jars.

Problems solved by technology

[0018] Also as a supplement, with regard to this option, it can be noted that the presence of said claws involved in the determination of the opening through which the rod and the applicator need to pass when entering or removing it from the reservoir, allows the presence of crevices where product contamination with which the applicator is carried impairs the cleanliness of the neck of the reservoir and the life of the applicator (if the applicator is at risk of being damaged while traversing the prongs)
