Brush with magnetic filaments
A brush with magnetic filaments is described. The brush may be used, for example, as a brush for applying a cosmetic material. The filaments of the brush may, in one example, be made of a synthetic material infused with magnetic material.
1. A cosmetic brush for simultaneously applying a skincare product and magnetic therapy comprising:
an elongate handle having first and second ends and a longitudinal axis extending therebetween;
a cosmetic applicator coupled to the first end of the handle and extending substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis, the cosmetic applicator comprising a plurality of supple natural fibers infused with a permanently magnetic material; and
a magnet disposed in the handle;
wherein the cosmetic applicator has a magnetic character comprising first and second magnetic fields, wherein the second magnetic field supplements the first magnetic field.
2. The cosmetic brush of claim 1 , wherein the first magnetic field is provided by the permanently magnetic material, and the second magnetic field is provided by the magnet.
3. The cosmetic brush of claim 1 , wherein the magnet distributes a magnetic flux into the plurality of fibers.
4. The cosmetic brush of claim 3 , further comprising a magnetic plate disposed between the magnet and the plurality of supple natural or synthetic fibers to evenly distribute the magnetic flux of the magnet into the plurality of supple natural or synthetic fibers.
5. The cosmetic brush of claim 1 , wherein the supple natural fibers comprise hair, cellulose fibers, cotton, hemp or flax.
6. The cosmetic brush of claim 1 , wherein the magnet comprises an electromagnet.
7. The cosmetic brush of claim 1 , wherein the permanently magnetic material comprises magnetic granules.
8. The cosmetic brush of claim 1 , wherein the natural fibers are infused by soaking the natural fibers in a solution containing the magnetic material.
9. The cosmetic brush of claim 8 , wherein the natural fibers consist of one or more of hair, hemp, or flax.
10. A cosmetic brush for simultaneously applying a skincare product and magnetic therapy comprising:
an elongate handle having first and second ends and a longitudinal axis extending therebetween;
a cosmetic applicator coupled to the first end of the handle and extending substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis, the cosmetic applicator comprising a plurality of supple natural fibers coated in or infused with a permanently magnetic material; and
a magnet disposed in the handle;
wherein the cosmetic applicator has a magnetic character comprising first and second magnetic fields, wherein the second magnetic field supplements the first magnetic field;
wherein the permanently magnetic material comprises strontium ferrite, magnetite, and/or hematite.
11. A cosmetic brush for simultaneously applying a skincare product and magnetic therapy comprising:
