Abstract

A system including a storage base and a plurality of lash extensions. The storage base may include an outer sidewall defining a multiple indentations extending inward from an outside surface of the outer sidewall. Barriers may be spaced apart from each other along the indentations. The lash extensions may be positioned within the indentations between the barriers, and extend from the storage base from the indentations.

Claims (55)

1. A storage case for holding artificial lash extensions comprising:

a storage base comprising:

a first outer sidewall having first curved surface;

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

a first plurality of indentations extending inward from the first curved surface of the first outer sidewall; and

a second plurality of indentations extending inward from the second curved surface of the second outer sidewall, wherein each indentation of the first plurality of indentations and the second plurality of indentations is substantially flat and extends inward from the respective curved surface, and wherein each indentation of the first plurality of indentations and the second plurality of indentations is designed to receive at least part of an artificial lash extension of the artificial lash extensions such that another part of the artificial lash extension extends outside the storage base.

2. The storage case of claim 1 , wherein each indentation of the first plurality of indentations and the second plurality of indentations is designed to receive at least a base of the artificial lash extension and to allow at least some artificial hairs of the artificial lash extension to extend outside the storage base.

3. The storage case of claim 1 , wherein the storage case is designed to hold a first plurality of the artificial lash extensions at the first plurality of indentations and a second plurality of the artificial lash extensions at the second plurality of indentations.

4. The storage case of claim 1 , wherein the storage base further comprises:

a first plurality of partitions of the first outer sidewall, the first plurality of partitions positioned between adjacent indentations of the first plurality of indentations; and

a second plurality of partitions of the second outer sidewall, the second plurality of partitions positioned between adjacent indentations of the second plurality of indentations.

5. The storage case of claim 4 , wherein the first plurality of partitions extend inward from the first curved surface of the storage base, and wherein the second plurality of partitions extend inward form the second curved surface of the storage base.

6. The storage case of claim 4 , wherein the first plurality of indentations are arranged adjacent to one another along a top portion of the storage base.

7. The storage case of claim 6 , wherein the first plurality of indentations are arranged adjacent to one another along a top surface of the top portion of the storage base.

8. The storage case of claim 3 , further comprising:

a cover configured to releasably couple to the storage base.

9. The storage case of claim 8 , wherein the cover further comprises:

one or more fasteners configured to releasably couple the cover to the storage base.

10. The storage case of claim 8 , wherein the cover that is coupled to the storage base is configured to cover at least part of one or more of the first plurality of indentations or the second plurality of indentations.

11. The storage case of claim 8 , wherein at least part of one or more of the first plurality of indentations or the second plurality of indentations are exposed based on a removal of the cover from the storage base.

12. The storage case of claim 8 , wherein the cover coupled to the storage base is designed to releasably hold any artificial lash extension of the first plurality of artificial lash extensions or the second plurality of artificial lash extensions.

13. The storage case of claim 12 , wherein at least one of the cover or the storage base comprise a plastic material.

14. A system for artificial lash extensions comprising:

a storage case for the artificial lash extensions, the storage case comprising:

a storage base comprising:

a first outer sidewall having first curved surface;

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

a first plurality of indentations extending inward from the first curved surface of the first outer sidewall; and

a second plurality of indentations extending inward from the second curved surface of the second outer sidewall, and wherein each indentation of the first plurality of indentations and the second plurality of indentations is substantially flat and extends inward from the respective curved surface; and

one or more of the artificial lash extensions, wherein each indentation of the first plurality of indentations and the second plurality of indentations is designed to receive at least part of an artificial lash extension of the artificial lash extensions such that another part of the artificial lash extension extends outside the storage base.

15. The system of claim 14 , wherein:

each of the artificial lash extensions comprises:

a plurality of clusters of artificial hairs, each of the plurality of clusters of artificial hairs comprising multiple artificial hairs; and

a base to which each of the plurality of clusters of artificial hairs are attached.

16. The system of claim 15 , wherein each indentation of the first plurality of indentations and the second plurality of indentations designed to receive at least the base of the artificial lash extension and to allow at least some of the multiple artificial hairs of the artificial lash extension to extend outside the storage base.

17. The system of claim 15 , wherein the storage case is designed to hold a first plurality of the artificial lash extensions at the first plurality of indentations and a second plurality of the artificial lash extensions at the second plurality of indentations.

18. The system of claim 15 , further comprising:

an applicator for applying the artificial lash extensions to an underside of a natural lash, the applicator comprising:

a pair of opposing arms that are joined to each other at one end of each arm to form a hinge, each arm comprising an applicator section defining a curvature.

19. The system of claim 18 , wherein the applicator sections of the applicator are configured to grasp one or more of the artificial lash extensions responsive to an application of pressure to the arms.

20. The system of claim 18 , wherein the curvature of the application section of the applicator is contoured to align substantially flush with a shape of a tightline.

21. The system of claim 14 , wherein the storage base further comprises:

a first plurality of partitions of the first outer sidewall, the first plurality of partitions positioned between adjacent indentations of the first plurality of indentations; and

a second plurality of partitions of the second outer sidewall, the second plurality of partitions positioned between adjacent indentations of the second plurality of indentations.

22. The system of claim 21 , wherein the first plurality of partitions of the storage base extend inward from the first curved surface of the storage base, and wherein the second plurality of partitions of the storage base extend inward form the second curved surface of the storage base.

23. The system of claim 21 , wherein the first plurality of indentations of the storage base are arranged adjacent to one another along a top portion of the storage base.

24. The system of claim 23 , wherein the first plurality of indentations are arranged adjacent to one another along a top surface of the top portion of the storage base.

25. The system of claim 17 , the storage case further comprising:

a cover configured to releasably couple to the storage base.

26. The system of claim 25 , wherein the cover further comprises:

one or more fasteners configured to releasably couple the cover to the storage base.

27. The system of claim 25 , wherein the cover that is coupled to the storage base is configured to cover at least part of one or more of the first plurality of indentations or the second plurality of indentations.

28. The system of claim 25 , wherein at least part of one or more of the first plurality of indentations or the second plurality of indentations are exposed based on a removal of the cover from the storage base.

29. The system of claim 25 , wherein the cover coupled to the storage base is designed to releasably hold any artificial lash extension of the first plurality of artificial lash extensions or the second plurality of artificial lash extensions.

30. The system of claim 29 , wherein at least one of the cover or the storage base comprise a plastic material.
