Abstract
A first elongated hollow cylindrical member has a first open end and a second closed end. The second end has a central opening and an exposed face carrying an offset circular groove surrounding the opening. A hollow elongated capsule filled with cosmetic powder is slidably and removably disposed in the first member and has an open end adjacent the second end. A second elongated hollow cylindrical member has a third closed end and an opposite open fourth end. The third end has an exposed face with a transverse slot therein. The slot has a hole. The second and third ends are rotatably engaged. An elongated member is slidable in the slot and has a chamber and a transversely disposed prong. The prong rides in the groove and is moved back and forth in the slot as the first and second members are rotated relatively to each other. These members have a first rotational position at which the chamber and opening are aligned and a second rotational position at which the hole and opening are aligned. A brush carrying third member is engaged at its brush carrying end to the fourth end.
