[0001] This application claims the benefit of co-pending U.S. Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 60/274,311, filed Mar. 8, 2001.
[0002] There are a number of patents that have been set forth to aid in the application of eye makeup.
[0003] Collectively the referenced patents offer a smooth surface for the eyelashes to lay over, this allows the eyelashes to clump together giving an undesirable effect.
[0004] U.S. Pat. No. 2,035,667 proposes an eyelash comb that could be used for the application of mascara, leading to the problem of the device itself obstructing the view of the individual attempting to use it.
[0005] The improvement of the present invention (
[0006] One embodiment of the present invention is in a device to aid in the application of eyelash makeup comprising a handle and a shield having an edge shaped to generally conform to the shape of the human eyelid, and providing a surface for eyelashes to lay over, the improvement comprising grooves on the surface radiating from the edge and extending to a length approximating the length of a human eyelash and spaced apart approximately the same distance as are human eyelashes, whereby the grooves promote the separation and elongation of eyelashes during the application of eyelash makeup.
