Abstract

A cosmetic applicator tip has a plurality of dimples on an exterior surface thereof for receiving and dispensing a cosmetic. The tip is injection molded from a soft material to provide the tip with a pleasing "feel" when rubbed against the skin of a user. An air cushion within the tip can be varied to adjust or regulate the "feel" of the tip.
