Syringe attachment for cosmetics

Abstract

According to at least one exemplary embodiment, a syringe attachment is disclosed. The syringe attachment can include a base portion for coupling to a syringe, and a tip portion having a distal end with a narrow diameter. The tip portion may include a bend therein and may include brushes, bristles, or other attachments at the distal end thereof.

What is claimed is:  
     
         1 . A syringe attachment for facilitating the application of cosmetics, the syringe attachment comprising:
 a threaded base portion sized that facilitates attachment to a syringe;   a tip portion having a distal end with a narrow diameter; and   an enclosed channel that facilitates the flow of liquid from the threaded base portion to the distal end of the tip portion.   
     
     
         2 . The syringe attachment of  claim 1 , wherein the tip portion is of substantially uniform diameter. 
     
     
         3 . The syringe attachment of  claim 1 , wherein the tip portion has a proximal end of larger diameter than the distal end and tapers from the proximal end to the distal end. 
     
     
         4 . The syringe attachment of  claim 1 , wherein the distal end of the tip portion is flat. 
     
     
         5 . The syringe attachment of  claim 1 , wherein the distal end of the tip portion includes a cosmetics applicator. 
     
     
         6 . The syringe attachment of  claim 1 , wherein the distal end of the tip portion includes a connector facilitating the attachment of a distal structure. 
     
     
         7 . The syringe attachment of  claim 1 , wherein the tip portion is integrally formed with the base portion. 
     
     
         8 . The syringe attachment of  claim 1 , wherein the tip portion bends at a predetermined angle. 
     
     
         9 . The syringe attachment of  claim 8 , wherein the tip portion bends at an angle between 90° and 180° along an axis substantially parallel to the initial direction of the enclosed channel at the proximal end of the tip portion. 
     
     
         10 . The syringe attachment of  claim 1 , wherein the syringe attachment includes at least one flared portion connected to the base portion. 
     
     
         11 . A method for application of cosmetics via a syringe, the method comprising:
 inserting cosmetics into a syringe;   configuring a syringe to have a tip portion with a distal end having a narrow diameter suitable for the application of cosmetics;   actuating the syringe to release a quantity of cosmetics; and   applying cosmetics using the distal end of the syringe.   
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein the distal end of the tip portion of the syringe includes a cosmetics applicator chosen from the group consisting of brushes, bristles, and sponges. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein the distal end of the tip portion of the syringe includes a connector facilitating the attachment of a distal structure. 
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein the syringe is configured to have a tip portion that bends at an angle between 90° and 180° along an axis substantially parallel to the initial direction of the enclosed channel at the proximal end of the tip portion. 
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein the tip portion of the syringe is removably attached to the remainder of the syringe. 
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein the tip portion of the syringe includes at least one flared portion of sufficient size to accommodate a user's thumb or forefinger. 
     
     
         17 . The method of  claim 11 , further comprising refilling the syringe with cosmetics. 
     
     
         18 . A system for facilitating the application of cosmetics, comprising:
 a cosmetics applicator;   a syringe attachment, the syringe attachment coupled to the cosmetics applicator at a distal end of a tip portion of the syringe attachment; and   at least one syringe.   
     
     
         19 . The system of  claim 18 , wherein the cosmetics applicator is at least one of a brush, bristles, and a sponge. 
     
     
         20 . The system of  claim 19 , further comprising a case, this case having storage compartments sized to hold at least one syringe attachment, at least one syringe, and at least one container of cosmetic fluid.
