=Background=
In an era where value has become a consumer<nowiki>’</nowiki>s main purchasing principle, beauty brands have to go the extra mile in order to secure a purchase. And with ever more sophisticated formulas and product claims being touted by manufacturers, packaging is playing a key role in promoting these additional benefits.

From brushes and roller balls to rotating mascaras, manufacturers have elevated the humble cosmetic applicator to a <nowiki>’</nowiki>beauty tool<nowiki>’</nowiki>, claimed to help increase the efficacy of skin care products or even enabling consumers to recreate complex make-up looks in one easy application.[http://www.cosmeticsbusiness.com/technical/article_page/Applicators__adding_value/62033 <sup><nowiki>[</nowiki>1<nowiki>]</nowiki>]</sup>
<u>Dispenser</u> – A container so designed that the contents can be used in prescribed amounts.
<u>Applicator</u> – A device for applying a substance.
<u>Dispenser with applicator</u> – It means a container provided with applicator.
The dispenser-applicator holds a large quantity of product (lotion). The lotion dispenser-applicator dispenses an identical amount of lotion each time the pump is depressed so the user obtains exactly the desired amount of lotion on the applicator. The lotion is dispensed onto the exterior surface of the porous pad.[[Image:appl3.png|[http://www.garnier.ca/_en/_ca/articles/articles-detail.aspx?tpcode=EditContent_SC&tcode=dark_circle'''dispenser with applicator''']|right|thumbnail|200px]]
The lotion dispenser-applicator is especially useful in applying soaps, moisturizers, creams, sunscreens, gels, and the like to parts of the body that are hard to reach. However, the lotion dispenser-applicator is also useful in applying other types of soaps, cleaners, conditioners, and the like to other surfaces. For example, the lotion dispenser-applicator is useful in applying cleaners and conditioners to hard-to-reach surfaces in automobiles, boats, and in the home. [http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&Sect2=HITOFF&d=PALL&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsrchnum.htm&r=1&f=G&l=50&s1=7478961.PN.&OS=PN/7478961&RS=PN/7478961 <sup><nowiki>[</nowiki>2<nowiki>]</nowiki>]</sup>
Now-a-days consumers, and in particular women, are trying to recreate at home the techniques and results a professional aesthetician or make-up artist would produce but they need the right beauty tools to do that.
The opportunity to create applicators for the delivery of a novel formula as well as applicators to help create a beneficial effect to the consumer is huge.
Women are becoming more and more educated about beauty and how to apply their products – they want something beautiful but it needs to function. A make-up palette doesn<nowiki>’</nowiki>t just jump onto your face – you need the right tools to create the desired look.

<u>'''Types of Dispenser with Applicator'''</u>

=Background=
In an era where value has become a consumer<nowiki>’</nowiki>s main purchasing principle, beauty brands have to go the extra mile in order to secure a purchase. And with ever more sophisticated formulas and product claims being touted by manufacturers, packaging is playing a key role in promoting these additional benefits.
[[Image:appl2.png|[http://www.garnier.ca/_en/_ca/articles/articles-detail.aspx?tpcode=EditContent_SC&tcode=dark_circle'''dispenser with applicator''']|right|thumbnail|200px]]
From brushes and roller balls to rotating mascaras, manufacturers have elevated the humble cosmetic applicator to a <nowiki>’</nowiki>beauty tool<nowiki>’</nowiki>, claimed to help increase the efficacy of skin care products or even enabling consumers to recreate complex make-up looks in one easy application.[http://www.cosmeticsbusiness.com/technical/article_page/Applicators__adding_value/62033 <sup><nowiki>[</nowiki>1<nowiki>]</nowiki>]</sup>
<u>Dispenser</u> – A container so designed that the contents can be used in prescribed amounts.
<u>Applicator</u> – A device for applying a substance.
<u>Dispenser with applicator</u> – It means a container provided with applicator.
The dispenser-applicator holds a large quantity of product (lotion). The lotion dispenser-applicator dispenses an identical amount of lotion each time the pump is depressed so the user obtains exactly the desired amount of lotion on the applicator. The lotion is dispensed onto the exterior surface of the porous pad.[[Image:appl3.png|[http://www.garnier.ca/_en/_ca/articles/articles-detail.aspx?tpcode=EditContent_SC&tcode=dark_circle'''dispenser with applicator''']|right|thumbnail|200px]]
The lotion dispenser-applicator is especially useful in applying soaps, moisturizers, creams, sunscreens, gels, and the like to parts of the body that are hard to reach. However, the lotion dispenser-applicator is also useful in applying other types of soaps, cleaners, conditioners, and the like to other surfaces. For example, the lotion dispenser-applicator is useful in applying cleaners and conditioners to hard-to-reach surfaces in automobiles, boats, and in the home. [http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&Sect2=HITOFF&d=PALL&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsrchnum.htm&r=1&f=G&l=50&s1=7478961.PN.&OS=PN/7478961&RS=PN/7478961 <sup><nowiki>[</nowiki>2<nowiki>]</nowiki>]</sup>
Now-a-days consumers, and in particular women, are trying to recreate at home the techniques and results a professional aesthetician or make-up artist would produce but they need the right beauty tools to do that.
The opportunity to create applicators for the delivery of a novel formula as well as applicators to help create a beneficial effect to the consumer is huge.
Women are becoming more and more educated about beauty and how to apply their products – they want something beautiful but it needs to function. A make-up palette doesn<nowiki>’</nowiki>t just jump onto your face – you need the right tools to create the desired look. [http://www.cosmeticsbusiness.com/technical/article_page/Applicators__adding_value/62033 <sup><nowiki>[</nowiki>3<nowiki>]</nowiki>]</sup>
