[Object] To provide an easy-to-use cosmetic application tool which is improved in the amount of a liquid cosmetic retained by the applying portion, and more specifically, to provide a cosmetic application tool including a new mechanism by which, conversely to the conventional art, the amount of a liquid cosmetic retained by the applying portion is increased when being passed through the wiper. [Solution] In a root portion 30a of at least one surface of a flat plate-shaped applying portion 30 attached and integrated with a leading end portion of a brush shaft 22 of a cosmetic application tool 1, a hollow portion 32 that covers the applying portion 30 circumferentially and is opened at a leading end side is provided. When the brush shaft 22 is drawn out of a cosmetic container 10, the hollow portion 32 of the applying portion 30 is flattened in the process of passing through a wiper 16 provided in a surrounding manner on the cosmetic container 10, so that a liquid cosmetic 12 that has been pooled in the hollow portion 32 is pushed out. That is, one time of insertion and drawing out of the brush shaft allows bringing, out of the cosmetic container 10, not only the liquid cosmetic 12 that can be retained by both surfaces of the applying portion 30 but also the portion of the liquid cosmetic 12 retained in the hollow portion 32. |
