Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0728427A1] The applicator comprises a container (1) for the cosmetic (9). In the upper part of the container is an opening (3), forming a drier, and a plug (4). The plug has a rod (5) which has a brush (6) at its end. During closure of the container the brush is immersed inside the container passing through the drier. Above the brush the rod has a deformable cleaning part (11) whose diameter is equal to the diameter of the drier. This cleaner is constituted by a small thickness brush or a flexible drilled diaphragm. The portion of the rod (5a) located between the opening and the brush is such that it allows balancing of the pressures existing inside and outside the container before, during retraction, the brush engages in the drier.
