Abstract

A cosmetic applicator embodies two cosmetic applicator elements in a single barrel housing. One applicator element is slidably extendable from retracted position in the housing to extended use position wherein it is extended axially a distance from an opening at one end of the housing. The other applicator element rotatably is axially extended from retracted position in the housing to use position. The operating means by which each element is extended are located in the housing in such manner that the operating means associated with the said other element lies nested in the operating means associated with the first applicator element when that element is retracted. Thus, the length of the housing can be shortened and still accommodate both operating means since they occupy a common length extend in the housing. One applicator element can be a lipbrush and the other an eyeliner.
