Background Technology

[0002] Gel-type or cream-type cosmetic containers containing liquid and volatile contents are made of containers with a narrow opening to minimize the evaporation of moisture or volatile solvents. An applicator for applying the contents to the body is provided at the opening of such containers, and the applicator is structured to have a small discharge opening formed therein for discharging the contents.

[0003] Generally, since these containers are equipped with only a single applicator, users are limited to applying the contents in only one way. Consequently, there is a problem in that the options available to the user are restricted, even when a more appropriate application method is required depending on the type of contents, the area of ​​application, or the purpose of use.

[0004] In particular, for color cosmetics, the application area varies depending on the application site, such as the eyes, lips, and cheeks; therefore, it can be difficult to achieve the desired makeup look with only one tip.

[0005] For example, in the case of the lips, because the curvature of the application area is large, the area where the product is applied in close contact differs from the area where it is applied at the lip boundary to determine the lip line; therefore, if the applicability, spreadability, and spreadability remain constant without variation, there is a problem in that the color makeup desired by the user cannot be easily achieved.
