Combination dispenser and applicator

Abstract

A combination dispenser and applicator comprising a handle and an applicator removably coupled to the handle. The handle may comprise a dispensing nozzle communicatively coupled to a reservoir disposed within the handle. The reservoir may contain a cosmetic product that can be dispensed through the dispensing nozzle when an actuator is actuated. In some examples, a ferrule affixed to the applicator may enclose the dispensing nozzle when removably coupled to the handle.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A cosmetic device comprising:
 an applicator coupled to a first end of a ferrule, a cavity disposed at a second end of the ferrule opposite the first end;   a handle comprising:
 a dispenser head extending from an end of the handle; and 
 a reservoir disposed within the handle communicatively coupled to the dispenser head; and 
   the ferrule removably coupled to the handle.   
     
     
         2 . The cosmetic device of  claim 1 , wherein the dispenser head is received in the cavity. 
     
     
         3 . The cosmetic device of  claim 1 , the ferrule further comprising a coupling mechanism that couples the ferrule to the handle. 
     
     
         4 . The cosmetic device of  claim 1 , the dispenser head further comprising a spray nozzle, an atomizer nozzle, an aeration nozzle, or a nozzle for dispensing a foam or gel product. 
     
     
         5 . The cosmetic device of  claim 1 , wherein the reservoir has an internal pressurization greater than one standard atmosphere (atm). 
     
     
         6 . The cosmetic device of  claim 1 , wherein the applicator comprises a brush, a sponge, a spatula, a pen, a marker, or a flocking 
     
     
         7 . The cosmetic device of  claim 1 , further comprising a cosmetic product disposed in the reservoir. 
     
     
         8 . The cosmetic device of  claim 7 , wherein the cosmetic product comprises foundation, primer, lip balm, blush, concealer, highlighter, setting spray, brush cleaner, fragrance, or remover. 
     
     
         9 . The cosmetic device of  claim 1 , further comprising a pump that dispenses a cosmetic product from the reservoir when actuated. 
     
     
         10 . The cosmetic device of  claim 1 , the handle further comprising a flexible wall that, when squeezed, applies a pressure to a cosmetic product in the reservoir dispensing the cosmetic product out the dispenser head. 
     
     
         11 . The cosmetic device of  claim 1 , the dispenser head being disposed on an end of the handle opposite the ferrule. 
     
     
         12 . The cosmetic device of  claim 1 , further comprising a cap configured to mate with and enclose the applicator or the dispenser head. 
     
     
         13 . A cosmetic sprayer comprising:
 an elongated handle having an interior reservoir for containing a cosmetic product;   a spray nozzle coupled to the elongated handle, the sprayer nozzle communicatively coupling to the reservoir and accessing the cosmetic product; and   an attachment mechanism disposed on the handle for coupling the handle to a second cosmetic device.   
     
     
         14 . The cosmetic sprayer of  claim 13 , wherein the spray nozzle is coupled to the handle at a longitudinal end of the handle. 
     
     
         15 . The cosmetic sprayer of  claim 13 , wherein the attachment mechanism comprises a snap-fit mechanism, threaded mechanism, magnetic mechanism, friction-fit mechanism, or push-button mechanism. 
     
     
         16 . The cosmetic sprayer of  claim 13 , further comprising the second cosmetic device comprising an applicator coupled to the handle via the attachment mechanism. 
     
     
         17 . The cosmetic sprayer of  claim 13 , wherein the spray nozzle is oriented to project the cosmetic product in a direction substantially perpendicular to an elongation direction of the elongated handle. 
     
     
         18 . The cosmetic sprayer of  claim 13 , further comprising an actuator to expel the cosmetic product from the reservoir out the spray nozzle. 
     
     
         19 . The cosmetic sprayer of  claim 18 , wherein the spray nozzle is disposed in the actuator. 
     
     
         20 . The cosmetic sprayer of  claim 18 , wherein the spray nozzle is disposed remote from the actuator.
