Abstract
An applicator system for applying a product to a surface includes an extendable implement comprising an applicator that is selectively extendable.

An applicator system for applying a product to a surface, the extendable applicator system comprising:
- an extendable implement comprising:
- a stem having a top end and a bottom end;
- an applicator comprising a brush and a tip attached to the brush, wherein the brush is fixed to the bottom end of the stem and the tip is extendably attached distal to the bush;
- a cap having a top end and a bottom end, the bottom end of the cap being securely disposed on the top end of the stem, and the top end of the cap comprising a ridge arranged around at least a portion of the top end;
- a push-button disposed on the top end of the cap and at least partially surrounded by the ridge, wherein the push-button is for selectively extending the tip relative to the brush to facilitate application of the product to portions of the surface;
- a linkage housed in the stem coupling the tip and the push-button;
- and
- a receptacle assembly for receiving the extendable implement.
An extendable implement for applying a product to a surface, the extending implement comprising:
- a stem having a top end and a bottom end;
- an applicator fixed to the bottom end of the stem, the applicator comprising:
- a subordinate tip extendably attached to the applicator at a distal end of the applicator;
- a cap securely disposed on the top end of the stem;
- an actuator coupled to the cap for selectively extending the tip to facilitate application of the product to portions of the surface;
- and
- a linkage housed in the stem coupling the subordinate tip and the actuator.
