Filed:

Jun 16, 2005

Appl. No.:

11/154623

Inventors:

George H. Kress - Fanwood NJ, US
Paul H. Marotta - Farmingdale NY, US
Daniela T. Bratescu - Northport NY, US

Assignee:

Elc Management LLC - New York NY

International Classification:

A46B 11/00
A46B 13/00

US Classification:

401129, 401126, 15 221

Abstract:

A mascara applicator with vibrating applicator head. The head is caused to vibrate in a controlled manner through electro-mechanical urging. The frequency, amplitude and geometry of the vibrating head are sufficient to significantly alter the rheological properties of thixotropic and anti-thixotropic mascara compositions, including an effect that persists after the vibration has stopped. The device allows the mascara to be manipulated for improved results, greater flexibility in formulation, benefits in manufacture, as well as other benefits.
