Abstract

A device for applying a powdery material, suitably make-up, comprising a casing (4) containing a powdery material reservoir (6) mounted displaceably with respect to the casing (4) and dismountably integral with an intermediate part (22) which is integral with an obturation element (16) forming valve (18). The obturation element (16) comprises a stem (17) of a length sufficient to have its free end (17a) accessible from outside the device when the reservoir (6) is dismounted. An easy-to-clean refillable device is thus provided, which facilitates changing the shade of the powder applied during use.
