Apparatus For Storage and Application of Liquid Materials

An apparatus for applying liquid cosmetic material, said apparatus comprising:

• a housing;
• an applicator disposed within said housing;
• said applicator comprising:
• a first layer of non-woven fibrous material, said first layer comprising a plurality of fibers having a linear mass density of about 1.5 denier to about 3.0 denier;
• a second layer of non-woven fibrous material, said second layer comprising a plurality of fibers having a linear mass density of about 6.0 denier to about 24.0 denier, said second layer having a specific gravity and porosity sufficient to retain said liquid cosmetic material;
• wherein said first layer has a specific gravity that is greater than said specific gravity of said second layer and further wherein said first layer is operably connected to said second layer such that liquid material retained in said second layer passes through said first layer to said top surface of said first layer when said first layer and said second layer are compressed.

An apparatus for containment of a liquid cosmetic material, said apparatus comprising:

• a housing;
• and
• a reservoir disposed within said housing, said reservoir comprising a non-woven fibrous material, said reservoir comprising a plurality of fibers having a linear mass density of about 6.0 denier to about 24.0 denier, said reservoir having a specific gravity and porosity sufficient to retain said liquid cosmetic material;
• wherein said liquid cosmetic material retained in said reservoir is forced out from said reservoir when said reservoir is compressed.
