Abstract

A cosmetic safeguard that incorporates a soft, shock absorbing, reusable, hypo-allergenic material that is fit to size all product sizes on the market. The make-up palette is inserted into the sponge-like object for the purpose of absorbing the shock of the make-up compact if dropped or tossed around in the bottom of a bag to prevent the palette from breaking and disintegrating. It is either spherical or squarical, a conveniently sized device, that also maintains a light weight, and is an easily transportable and transferable platform. Additionally, the cosmetic device is a simple, light, and convenient compact housing multiple range of products and vendors. The consumer can interchange the make-up palette, safeguarding the compact while allowing the consumer to fit the individual's style on any given day.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

This application claims priority to and takes the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 62/629,093 filed on Feb. 11, 2018, the contents of which are incorporated by reference.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Field of the Invention

The present device relates generally to cosmetic devices, and more particularly to a combination cosmetic device to allow users to protect their make-up palette during usage and transport of the device.

Description of the Related Art

People have been wearing skin cosmetics and skin protectants for hundreds of years, dating all the way back to the ancient Egyptians and many cultures indigenous to different continents. As skin cosmetics and skin protectants have become commonplace, more individuals of both genders purchase and utilize skin cosmetics and skin protectants for various reasons. With fast-paced lives, many individuals rush to complete their look prior to their departure. With a swift motion, the compact may drop leading to the product's breakdown and in need of a protective barrier.
Clearly the more people utilize skin cosmetics and skin protectants the more likely it is that the individual prefers to transport skin cosmetics and skin protectants when leaving the home for on the spot fixes and touchups. This is also true for occasions when the user must travel, and particularly when the travel is for short periods of time. As cosmetic containers are normally small in nature, these vessels tend to sink to the bottom of the transport systems, be it a bag, purse, pocketbook or automobile, often causing damage to the compact due to the weight of other items upon the compact.
There are numerous differing genres of products that individuals carry with them for traveling or just leaving the house, including but not limited to separate items such as blush, bronzer, compact powder, and eye shadow. All of these items need protection during transport to prevent fragmentation.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present device, as illustrated herein, is clearly not anticipated, rendered obvious, or even present in any of the prior art mechanisms, either alone or in any combination thereof.
Therefore, it is a primary object of the present device to provide a spherical shaped or squarical shaped (being shaped as a square and having rounded edges) cosmetic compact that houses make-up palettes.
It is another object of the present device to protect the make-up palette by absorbing the shock when dropped or tossed around preventing the make-up from breaking and disintegrating.
It is another object of the present device to provide soft, reusable and hypo-allergenic design that houses a variety of make-up palettes sizes so a consumer can keep brand preferences.
It is yet another object of the present device to conserve money by vitiating the need to repurchase cosmetics due to disintegration and loss of product when dropped or crushed during travel.
It is yet another object of the present device to allow individuals to easily switch between make-up palettes while on the move.
There has thus been outlined, rather broadly, the more important features of a cosmetic device that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood, and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated. There are additional features of the device that will be described hereinafter and which will form the subject matter of the claims appended hereto.
In this respect, before explaining at least one embodiment of the device in detail, it is to be understood that the device is not limited in its application to the details of construction and to the arrangements of the components set forth in the following description or illustrated in the drawings. The device is capable of other embodiments and of being practiced and carried out in various ways, including applications involving the art discussed herein. Also, it is to be understood that the phraseology and terminology employed herein are for the purpose of description and should not be regarded as limiting.
These together with other objects of the device, along with the various features of novelty, which characterize the device, are pointed out with particularity in the claims annexed to and forming a part of this disclosure. For a better understanding of the device, its operating advantages and the specific objects attained by its uses, reference should be made to the accompanying drawings and descriptive matter in which there are illustrated preferred embodiments of the system.
