Abstract

A case for storing artificial lash extensions includes a body having a first outer sidewall having first curved surface, and first storage slots extending inward from the first curved surface of the first outer sidewall. Each of the first storage slots includes a first floor that extends inward from the first curved surface. The case includes a gasket configured to releasably hold the artificial lash extensions in the first plurality of storage slots.

Claims (54)

1. A case for storing artificial lash extensions comprising:

a body comprising:

a first outer sidewall having first curved surface; and

a first plurality of storage slots extending inward from the first curved surface of the first outer sidewall, wherein each of the first plurality of storage slots comprises a first floor that extends inward from the first curved surface; and

a gasket configured to releasably hold the artificial lash extensions in the first plurality of storage slots.

2. The case of claim 1 , wherein the body further comprises:

a second outer sidewall opposite the first outer sidewall, the second outer sidewall having a second curved surface; and

a second plurality of storage slots extending inward from the second curved surface of the second outer sidewall, wherein each the second plurality of storage slots comprises a second floor that extends inward from the respective curved surface, and

wherein the gasket configured to releasably hold the artificial lash extensions in the second plurality of storage slots.

3. The case of claim 2 , wherein the first plurality of storage slots and the second plurality of storage slots are configured such that the artificial lash extensions at least in part extend within respective storage slots.

4. The case of claim 3 , wherein the first plurality of storage slots and the second plurality of storage slots are configured such that the artificial lash extensions extend entirely within respective storage slots.

5. The case of claim 2 , wherein the body further comprises:

a first plurality of partitions that define the first plurality of storage slots; and

a second plurality of partitions that define the second plurality of storage slots.

6. The case of claim 5 , wherein a plurality of tabs of the gasket are configured to extend within respective ones of the first plurality of storage slots and the second plurality of storage slots, and configured to extend between respective ones of the first plurality of partitions and the second plurality of partitions.

7. The case of claim 5 , wherein:

each of a first plurality of floors of the first plurality of storage slots are located between respective adjacent pairs of the first plurality of partitions, and

each of a second plurality of floors of the second plurality of storage slots are located between respective adjacent pair of the second plurality of partitions.

8. The case of claim 1 , further comprising:

a lid configured to couple to the body.

9. The case of claim 8 , wherein the gasket is part of the lid.

10. The case of claim 8 , wherein the gasket is separate from the lid.

11. The case of claim 8 , wherein the body is configured to couple to the lid such that the gasket is positioned between the lid and the body.

12. The case of claim 1 , wherein the body and the gasket are configured to mate with one another.

13. The case of claim 1 , wherein the gasket comprises a plurality of tabs that are flexible.

14. The case of claim 13 , wherein the plurality of tabs are configured to releasably hold the artificial lash extensions in the first plurality of storage slots.

15. The case of claim 13 , wherein the plurality of tabs are spaced apart from each other and radially extend outwards.

16. The case of claim 13 , wherein the plurality of tabs comprise projections each configured to contact respective ones of the artificial lash extensions located in respective storage slots of the first plurality of storage slots.

17. A method of manufacturing a case for storing artificial lash extensions comprising:

forming a body, the body comprising:

a first outer sidewall having first curved surface; and

a first plurality of storage slots extending inward from the first curved surface of the first outer sidewall, wherein each of the first plurality of storage slots comprises a first floor that extends inward from the first curved surface; and

forming a gasket configured to releasably hold the artificial lash extensions in the first plurality of storage slots.

18. The method of claim 17 , wherein the body further comprises:

a second outer sidewall opposite the first outer sidewall, the second outer sidewall having a second curved surface; and

a second plurality of storage slots extending inward from the second curved surface of the second outer sidewall, wherein each the second plurality of storage slots comprises a second floor that extends inward from the respective curved surface, and

wherein the gasket configured to releasably hold the artificial lash extensions in the second plurality of storage slots.

19. The method of claim 18 , wherein the body further comprises:

a first plurality of partitions that define the first plurality of storage slots; and

a second plurality of partitions that define the second plurality of storage slots.

20. The method of claim 19 , wherein:

each of a first plurality of floors of the first plurality of storage slots are located between respective adjacent pairs of the first plurality of partitions, and

each of a second plurality of floors of the second plurality of storage slots are located between respective adjacent pair of the second plurality of partitions.

21. The method of claim 19 , wherein a plurality of tabs of the gasket are configured to extend within respective ones of the first plurality of storage slots and the second plurality of storage slots, and configured to extend between respective ones of the first plurality of partitions and the second plurality of partitions.

22. The method of claim 18 , wherein the first plurality of storage slots and the second plurality of storage slots are configured such that the artificial lash extensions at least in part extend within respective storage slots.

23. The method of claim 17 , further comprising:

forming a lid configured to couple to the body.

24. The method of claim 23 , wherein the gasket is part of the lid.

25. The method of claim 24 , wherein the gasket is separate from the lid.

26. The method of claim 24 , wherein the body is configured to couple to the lid such that the gasket is positioned between the lid and the body.

27. The method of claim 17 , wherein the body and the gasket are configured to mate with one another.

28. The method of claim 17 , wherein the gasket comprises a plurality of tabs that are flexible.

29. The method of claim 28 , wherein the plurality of tabs are configured to releasably hold the artificial lash extensions in the first plurality of storage slots.

30. The method of claim 28 , wherein the plurality of tabs comprise projections each configured to contact respective ones of the artificial lash extensions located in respective storage slots of the first plurality of storage slots.
