Benefits of technology

The invention is a cosmetic holder that is affordable, easy to make, and easy to carry. It can store lipstick and its applicator without getting damaged. It is designed to be user-friendly and versatile. Its goal is to provide a practical solution for storing and transporting makeup.

Problems solved by technology

Several patents have been obtained which provide for the storage of a brush or applicator but these have not resulted in the successful marketing of those product designs.
The lack of commercial acceptance may be due to the large increase in volume, the loss of tactile feel due to change in lipstick holder shape, unattractiveness, increased cost, or some other reason or reasons.
