Device for applying and removing nail polish

A device for applying or removing nail polish or nail art on a finger or toe nail, comprising:

• a cartridge of resilient material having a reservoir therein that contains a fluid chosen from a group consisting of nail polish or nail polish remover, the cartridge having a concave contoured top surface configured to receive a user's finger thereon and a convex contoured bottom surface configured to receive a user's finger thereon;
• and
• a handle extending between a proximal end and a distal end, the proximal end of the handle removably coupled to the distal end of the cartridge, the handle having a contoured body comprising a contoured top surface that substantially aligns with the concave contoured top surface of the cartridge, the handle also having a contoured bottom surface that substantially aligns with the convex contoured bottom surface of the cartridge so that the handle and cartridge together define a contoured body that facilitates the holding of the cartridge and handle by the user, the handle having a flow path that extends between the proximal and distal ends of the handle and is configured to receive the fluid dispensed via the cartridge when the cartridge is coupled to the handle, an applicator implement operatively coupled to the distal end of the handle so that flow of fluid through the handle flows to the applicator implement,
• wherein one of the cartridge and the handle has a valve actuatable to allow flow of the fluid therethrough, and wherein selective actuation of the cartridge by the user allows a volume of fluid to flow through the valve and through the flow path in the handle to the applicator implement for application of the fluid by the user to a finger or toe nail.

A kit for applying or removing nail polish or nail art on a finger or toe nail, comprising:

• one or more replaceable cartridges of resilient material having a reservoir configured to at least partially contain a fluid chosen from a group consisting of nail polish or nail polish remover, each cartridge having a contoured top surface that is at least partially concave and configured to receive a user's finger thereon and a convex contoured bottom surface configured to receive a user's finger thereon;
• and
• a handle having a contoured body extending between a proximal end and a distal end and that mates with the contoured top surface and contoured bottom surface of the cartridge, the proximal end of the handle configured to removably couple to the distal end of the cartridge, the handle having a flow path that extends between the proximal and distal ends of the handle and is in fluid communication with the cartridge when the cartridge is coupled to the handle so that flow of fluid from the reservoir is configured to flow through the flow path in the handle, an applicator implement operatively coupled to the distal end of the handle so that flow of fluid through the handle flows to the applicator implement, one of the cartridge and the handle having a flow control member actuatable to allow flow of the fluid therethrough;
• wherein the one or more replaceable cartridges are each configured to removably couple to the proximal end of the handle, and wherein selective actuation of the cartridge by the user allows a volume of fluid to flow out the cartridge through the flow path in the handle to the applicator implement for application of the fluid by the user to a finger or toe nail.
