Abstract
A cosmetic applicator includes a body which includes a tip part and an extension which has a threaded portion. A case has a rotary member threadedly connected to the threaded portion. A contact member is received in the case which has a contact portion located corresponding to the shoulder of the body. A liquid supply unit is axially received in the body and the case, and has a liquid tube, a duct and a guide tube. The liquid tube contacts the contact member. The duct is inserted in the liquid tube and has a passage. A sealing member is removably located at the duct to seal or open the guide tube. A clip is connected to a groove between the case and the body before first use. The clip is removed and the case is rotated to move the sealing member to allow cosmetic liquid to reach the tip part.
