Abstract
Description
Pad Picker
[0001] The present invention relates to a pad picker.
[0002] Pad-type cosmetics are made of multiple sheets of fabric immersed in a cosmetic liquid inside a cosmetic container, and are used for toners, peeling, cleansing, etc. In the past, plastic tweezers were mainly used to separate the fabric immersed in the cosmetic liquid from these pad-type cosmetics one by one and use them as toners, etc., so as to prevent contamination of the cosmetics. However, in the case of this conventional method, the cosmetic liquid for immersion in the pad-type cosmetics gathers at the bottom of the cosmetic container due to gravity, so that the fabric closer to the bottom of the cosmetic container is immersed in a relatively larger amount of the cosmetic liquid than the fabric closer to the opening. Therefore, the adhesive force between the fabric closer to the bottom of the cosmetic container is relatively greater than that between the fabric closer to the opening, so that it is relatively more difficult to separate the fabric closer to the bottom of the cosmetic container with plastic tweezers than the fabric closer to the opening. Meanwhile, the prior art related to the above-described content is disclosed in Republic of Korea Utility Model Registration No. 20-0495048 (announced on February 23, 2022).
[0003]
