Claims21
Brush for the application of nail coating or similar product, comprising bristles disposed substantially parallel to one another in a tuft and fixed to a support with said tuft having a selected length, said bristles comprising a mixture of bristles of small cross section and bristles having a larger cross section than said small cross section, the proportion of larger bristles being between 2% and 95% by volume in relation to the total volume of the tuft of the brush, said large bristles further comprising at least two subgroups of bristles with cross sections of different sizes, said larger cross section bristles providing a means to increase the length of said tuft for more effective application of the nail coating product, the sizes of the cross section of the large bristles within a single group being substantially constant, said bristles of small cross section including at least two subgroups of bristles with cross sections of different sizes, the sizes of the cross sections of the small bristles of a single sub group being substantially constant.
A container comprising a bottle of varnish with a neck and a cylindrical sleeve, a brush for the application of the varnish comprising bristles disposed substantially parallel to one another in a tuft and fixed to a support, said brush being receivable in said bottle, said bristles comprising a mixture of bristles of small cross section and bristles having a larger cross section than said small cross section, the proportion of larger bristles being between 2% and 95% by volume in relation to the total volume of the tuft of the brush, said larger bristles comprising at least two subgroups of bristles with cross sections of different sizes, the sizes of said cross sections of the bristles in one subgroup of said larger bristles being substantially constant.
Brush for the application of nail varnish or a similar product comprising bristles disposed substantially parallel to one another in a tuft and fixed to a support, said bristles being formed by a mixture of bristles of small cross section and bristles having a larger cross section than said small cross section, the proportion of larger bristles being between 2% and 95% by volume in relation to the total volume of the tuft of the brush, said larger bristles including at least two subgroups of bristles with cross sections of different sizes, the sizes of the cross sections of the larger bristles within one subgroup being substantially constant, at least some of said bristles of said brush including an agent for improving the sliding properties of the bristles and reducing the absorptivity of the bristles with respect to water, said agent being in a proportion of between 0.2% and 15% by weight.
