Cosmetic removing and correcting implement

Abstract

A cosmetic removal implement which comprises an elongate body portion having a contact tip at an end, the body having therein: a storage spool having spooled thereon a tape of cleaning material; a collection spool operationally connected to the storage spool by the tape; and a reservoir containing a cosmetic removal composition, the reservoir being in fluid connection with at least a portion of the tape; and wherein the tape is capable of motion along a tape path from the storage spool over at least a portion of the contact tip to the collection spool.

1 . A cosmetic removal implement which comprises an elongate body portion having a contact tip at an end, the body having therein:
 a storage spool having spooled thereon a tape of cleaning material;   a collection spool operationally connected to the storage spool by the tape; and   a reservoir containing a cosmetic removal composition, the reservoir being in fluid connection with at least a portion of the tape;   
       and wherein the tape is capable of motion along a tape path from the storage spool over at least a portion of the contact tip to the collection spool. 
     
     
         2 . The cosmetic removal implement according to  claim 1  wherein the implement includes an actuator which when operated results in the rotation of the collection spool and collection of the tape about that spool. 
     
     
         3 . The cosmetic removal implement according to  claim 2  wherein the actuator includes a slideable button which when operated will result in the rotation of the collection spool. 
     
     
         4 . The cosmetic removal implement according to  claim 1  wherein the implement includes a delivery system for delivering the cosmetic removal composition from the reservoir to a portion of the tape after said portion of tape has been moved into position over the contact tip. 
     
     
         5 . The cosmetic removal implement according to  claim 1  wherein the reservoir of cosmetic removal composition is located within a storage tank which holds from 1 to 5 mls of the composition. 
     
     
         6 . The cosmetic removal implement according to  claim 5  wherein the tank includes a pipe for transporting the cosmetic removal composition from within the tank to the contact tip. 
     
     
         7 . The cosmetic removal implement according to  claim 6  wherein the pipe is capped with a porous plug which is fitted within the contact tip, and the contact tip includes outlets through which the composition may flow from the plug, through the contact tip and to an outer surface of the contact tip. 
     
     
         8 . The cosmetic removal implement according to  claim 7  wherein the tank is formed from a deformable plastic and the composition within the tank is pushed out of the tank and the pipe through the porous plug within the tip to wet the tape at the contact tip when the tank is compressed. 
     
     
         9 . The cosmetic removal implement according to  claim 8  wherein the tank can be deformed by depressing a button or buttons located on the housing or by depressing flexible regions in the housing and thereby compress the sides of the tank. 
     
     
         10 . The cosmetic removal implement according to  claim 1  wherein the elongate body is adapted to be held by hand. 
     
     
         11 . The cosmetic removal implement according to  claim 1  wherein the tape is formed from absorbent material. 
     
     
         12 . The cosmetic removal implement according to  claim 11  wherein the tape is formed from cotton, polyester or a blend of cotton and polyester. 
     
     
         13 . The cosmetic removal implement according to  claim 1  wherein the cosmetic removal composition is in the form of liquid, emulsion or gel composition.
