Eyebrow Contour Stencil System

Abstract

The invention is an improved stencil system for forming symmetrical contours on eyebrows. The system consists of a pair of modified eyeglass frames that hold the accompanying flexible, reusable, dual eyebrow stencil in place on the raised centerpiece. This allows for the easy application of brow powder to form symmetrical brow contours on the face. The frames have a raised centrepiece that holds the stencil against the bridge of the nose leaving the hands free to steady the stencil and apply makeup. The variety of included stencils can be re-positioned vertically on the centrepiece according to the user's desired brow placement. After the contour is applied to the brow area, a second “browstroke” stencil may be positioned overtop, using the contour as a guide. Simulated brow hairs may be added by brushing darker brow powder over the “browstroke” stencil.

The embodiments of the invention which an exclusive property or privilege is claimed are defined as follows: 
     
         1 . An eyebrow contour device ( 8 ) and stencils ( 7 ,  7   b ) consisting of a pair of modified eyeglass frames that hold the accompanying eyebrow stencil template ( 7 ) in place for the purpose of aiding the application of makeup (ie: brow powder) to form level, symmetrical contoured eyebrows. The frames have a raised centrepiece ( 9 ) that holds the stencil template ( 7 ) against the bridge of the nose leaving the hands free to apply makeup. The stencils ( 7 ) can be re-positioned vertically on the raised centrepiece ( 9 ) depending upon the user's desired brow placement on the face. 
     
     
         2 . An eyebrow contour device ( 8 ) and stencils ( 7 ) according to  claim 1 , wherein the stencil template ( 7 ) (which is the part containing center female cut-outs ( 11 ) fits onto the raised centrepiece ( 9 ) (which is the part bearing raised interlocking male counterparts) ( 10 ). 
     
     
         3 . An eyebrow contour device ( 8 ) and stencils ( 7 ) according to  claim 1 , wherein the emphasis is focused on applying the makeup to the eyebrows symmetrically. 
     
     
         4 . An eyebrow contour device and stencils ( 7 ) according to  claims 1  and  2 , wherein the application of makeup to the stencil requires only a single finger to hold the flexible stencil to follow the curvature of the individual face ( FIG. 6 ). 
     
     
         5 . An eyebrow contour device ( 8 ) and stencils ( 7 ,  7   b ) according to  claims 1  and  2 , wherein a selection of brow stencils ( FIG. 3 ) are included in a variety of shapes, widths and distance from centre. 
     
     
         6 . An eyebrow contour device and stencils according o  claim 1 , that includes “browstroke” stencils ( 7   b ) to be used to apply natural looking simulated brow hairs after the symmetrical eyebrow contours are in place, giving a realistic looking brow. 
     
     
         7 . An eyebrow contour device and stencils according to  claim 1 , wherein the thin and compact nature of the device has hinged arms that fold flat for ease of use, storage and portability. 
     
     
         8 . An eyebrow contour device and stencils according to  claim 1 , wherein the ease of use allows for very little skill or practice to create the desired look ( FIG. 6  &  FIG. 7 ).
