Benefits of technology

The patent describes an eye makeup applicator that is easy to use and can create a perfect line or region of color. The applicator has a head that can be moved or dragged to create different effects, such as creating a smudgier look.

Problems solved by technology

Applying makeup can be difficult, at best, especially when applying eye make-up, such as eyeliner.
Similar challenges occur with applying eye shadow where the goal may be to create a region of color around the eye with a varying degree of intensity across the region so that it fades out at the edges.
Regardless of the method or goal, it can be difficult to produce an even and clean application.
Even for the more experienced people, it can be messy and time consuming.

Furthermore, the applicator may be adapted so that it can be reconfigured to change the shape of the mark to suit the individual user's taste.
