Sunscreen dispensing brush and methods of using same

A powder dispensing brush configured to apply a powder to a skin surface of a user, comprising:

• a housing having a proximal end and a distal end;
• a powder supply chamber coupled with the proximal end of the housing, the powder supply chamber having an interior space configured to hold a powder;
• an interior chamber in the housing configured to receive therein a portion of the powder in the powder supply chamber;
• a third chamber distal to the interior chamber, the third chamber configured to receive therein a portion of the powder in the powder supply chamber;
• a plurality of orifices formed in and passing entirely through a wall positioned at a distal end of the third chamber so as to be in communication with the third chamber;
• a filter positioned within the housing such that the powder must pass through the filter before passing through the plurality of orifices;
• and
• an outer brush comprising a plurality of bristles extending in a distal direction from a distal end portion of the housing;
• wherein
• the plurality of orifices are positioned around a central portion of the end wall;
• and
• the plurality of orifices are configured to receive a portion of the powder that is in the third chamber upon actuation of the powder dispensing brush by a user.

A powder dispensing brush configured to apply a powder to a skin surface of a user, comprising:

• a housing;
• a powder supply chamber having an interior space configured to hold the powder;
• a second chamber configured to receive a portion of the powder from the powder supply chamber;
• a plurality of orifices formed in a distal wall of the second chamber, the plurality of orifices being in communication with an interior space of the second chamber, the plurality of orifices being configured to receive at least some of the portion of the powder within the second chamber upon actuation by a user;
• a passageway extending from the powder supply chamber to the second chamber;
• a filter positioned within or adjacent to the passageway, the filter being sized and configured to prevent a passage of masses of powder greater than a predetermined size through the filter and into the second chamber and to permit a passage of masses of powder smaller than or equal to a predetermined size to pass through the filter and into the second chamber upon activation by a user;
• and
• a plurality of bristles extending in a distal direction from a distal end portion of the housing;
• wherein:
• each of the plurality of orifices comprises a proximal end and a distal end, wherein each of the plurality of orifices is conical in shape along an entire length of each of the plurality of orifices such that the plurality of orifices increase in diameter along the entire length of the plurality of orifices extending between the proximal end and the distal end of each of the plurality of orifices.
