Abstract
A device for packaging and applying a cosmetic product includes a container holding the product. The container opens out via a product delivery passage into at least one opening surrounded by an outwardly concave surface designed to bear against a surface to be treated. The bearing surface is delineated by a continuous outer edge of elongated shape, of which the tangent at the level of the deepest portion forms an angle greater than 45° with the lengthwise axis of the product delivery passage. The opening facilitates the application of product on a surface to be treated, in the form of at least one predetermined motif.

A device for packaging and applying a cosmetic product, comprising:
- a container to hold said cosmetic product, the container configured to dispense said product via a product delivery passage into at least one opening surrounded by a continuous outer edge of an outwardly concave bearing surface, of which a tangent at a level of a deepest portion forms an angle greater than 45° with a lengthwise axis of the product delivery passage, said at least one opening being in the form of at least one predetermined motif to apply the cosmetic product, wherein
- the container is elongated on a lengthwise axis X, the opening and the continuous outer edge being formed at an axial end of the container,
- the continuous outer edge and the at least one opening are elongated on an axis Y substantially perpendicular to the axis X of the container, and
- the opening is non-linear at least substantially between a first end and a second end.
A container for a cosmetic product, comprising:
- a body elongated on a lengthwise axis;
- a dispensing head provided on said body;
- and
- a neck provided on said dispensing head, said neck including a side wall which extends parallel to the lengthwise axis and a transverse cross-section of said neck elongated on a transverse axis substantially perpendicular to said lengthwise axis defining a plurality of openings, and a height of the neck measured on the lengthwise axis being varied such that said neck forms a concave outer surface,
- wherein said openings have a shape to dispense and apply a cosmetic product to an eyelid through said openings in a form of at least one predetermined motif.
A container for a cosmetic product, comprising:
- a body elongated on a lengthwise axis;
- a dispensing head provided on said body;
- and
- a neck provided on said dispensing head, said neck defining an opening, said neck including a side wall which extends parallel to the lengthwise axis and a transverse cross-section of said neck elongated on a transverse axis substantially perpendicular to said lengthwise axis, and a height of the neck measured on the lengthwise axis being varied such that said neck forms a concave outer surface,
- wherein said opening has a shape to dispense and apply a cosmetic product to an eyelid through said opening in a form of at least one predetermined motif, and
- the opening extends over substantially half of a length of the transverse cross-section of the neck along the transverse axis.
A makeup method for an eyelid comprising the steps of:
- placing a bearing surface of a cosmetic product container on the eyelid, the bearing surface being an outwardly concave surface surrounding an opening of a product delivery passage of the container, wherein the bearing surface is delineated by a continuous outer edge of elongated shape, of which a tangent at a level of a deepest portion forms an angle greater than 45° with a lengthwise axis of the product delivery passage, the opening being of a predetermined motif;
- deforming a wall of the container in order to expel a cosmetic product;
- and
- depositing the product on the eyelid in the form of the predetermined motif.
