Friction Tool For Use In A Cosmetic Method

Abstract

A friction tool for use in a cosmetic method for the treatment of mammalian skin, the tool comprising a body defining a support having a planar support face; a resiliently deformable friction pad provided to the support face, the friction pad defining a friction face, the friction pad further comprising a net-like layer provided at said friction face such as integrally thereto, and a cosmetic method which can be performed using the friction tool.

1 . A friction tool for use in a cosmetic method for the treatment of mammalian skin, the tool comprising
 a body;   said body defining a support having a planar support face;   a resiliently deformable friction pad provided to said support face, said friction pad defining a friction face,   wherein the friction pad further comprises a net-like layer provided at said friction face.   
     
     
         2 . A friction tool according to  claim 1 , wherein the friction pad comprises a lofty non-woven fibre material and the net-like layer is provided as a separate layer to the lofty non-woven fibre material. 
     
     
         3 . A friction tool according to  claim 1 , wherein the friction pad comprises a lofty non-woven fibre material and the net-like layer is provided as an integral layer to the lofty non-woven fibre material. 
     
     
         4 . A friction tool according to  claim 3 , wherein the net-like layer is provided by adapting the lofty non-woven fibre material such as to define a net-like layer integral therewith. 
     
     
         5 - 10 . (canceled) 
     
     
         11 . A friction tool according to  claim 1 , wherein the friction pad comprises a lofty non-woven fibre material comprising a web of interlaced non-woven fibres in the form of a three dimensional fibrous matrix with said non-woven fibres orientated and spaced to thereby define the net-like layer.
