Benefits of technology

The patent describes a styler for use with a cosmetic composition that has magnetic properties, such as mascara. The styler has a magnetic block that interacts with magnetic particles in the composition to lift and curl the eyelashes. The handle of the styler is designed for better gripping, with a flared end and a twist for easier use. The surface of the styler can also have a visible feature, such as an eye-shape design, to guide the user's application. The technical effects of the patent are improved and more desirable application results with the magnetic styler.

Problems solved by technology

Mascara is the universally most-preferred cosmetic, but it is also the most time-consuming cosmetic to adequately apply.
One problem with mascara applicators is that although they successfully apply mascara to the eyelashes and thereby enhance the color and thickness of the eyelashes, the applied mascara can cause adjacent eyelashes to stick together.
It is difficult to uniformly apply mascara to eyelashes with a single prior art device, and it is also difficult to prevent applying excessive mascara with a single device.
In various embodiments, the spacing between adjacent application elements may or may not be uniform.

first embodiment

[0080]Referring to FIGS. 1-5, there is illustrated a styler 100 for eyelashes according to the present disclosure. The styler 100 is advantageous as it can be used not only for combing eyelashes but also as a magnetic tool for curling and lifting the eyelashes. The styler 100 comprises a styler head 10 and a handle 20. The styler head 10 is formed at a distal end of the handle 20 (opposite the end portion 20a described below). The styler head 10 is elongated to have a length generally aligned with a length of the handle 20. In other words, the styler head 10 is preferably aligned along a longitudinal axis X of the styler 100. The styler head 10 and the handle 20 can be made integrally as one unit or can be made as separate units to be snapped or otherwise attached to each other by any other securing means known in the art, such as glue, tape, etc.

[0081]As illustrated in FIGS. 1-5, the styler head 10 further comprises a support 11 for supporting a comb 12 and at least one magnetic bl...

third embodiment

[0097]A styler 300 is shown in FIGS. 10-13. The styler 300 comprises a styler head 10 with a support 11, and a handle 20 with flared end 20a. The support 11 includes a flat top surface 11a, a flat bottom surface 11b, and at least one side surface 11c. The styler head 10 includes a comb 12 with bristles 12a that are arranged only on the top surface 11a and at least one magnetic block 14 is embedded in a recess provided in the bottom surface 11b. As, the comb 12 and the magnetic block 14 are not located on the same surface of the support 11, therefore a user can use the comb 12 and the magnetic block 14 separately or sequentially according to need.

fourth embodiment

[0098]A styler 400 is shown in FIGS. 14-17. The styler 400 comprises a styler head 10 with a support 11, and a handle 20 with a rounded end 20a. The support 11 includes a flat top surface 11a, a flat bottom surface 11b, and at least one side surface 11c. At least one magnetic block 14 is embedded in a recess provided in the top surface 11a and the comb 12 comprising bristles 12a is arranged on the convexly curved portion of the sidewall 11c at the distal end of the support 11. The comb 12 forms a fan of bristles 12a at a distal end of the styler 400.

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims the benefit of priority to U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 62 / 377,885, filed Aug. 22, 2016, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.BACKGROUNDField of the Invention[0002]The present disclosure generally relates to a styler for eyelashes.Description of the Related Art[0003]Mascara is the universally most-preferred cosmetic, but it is also the most time-consuming cosmetic to adequately apply. The three main features a consumer wants from her mascara and applicator are volume, length and separation, each of which may require a different type of applicator.[0004]The containers for mascara are generally in the shape of a tube and commonly consist of a scraping means forming a narrowed opening for the passage of the brush within the neck of the container. Various designs and / or structures of brushes for styling eyelashes are conventionally and commercially used. However, t...
