Description

    CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION
  • This application claims the benefit of Korean Application No. 10-2015-0188864 filed on Dec. 29, 2015 with the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.
    • BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • 1. Field of the Invention
  • The present invention relates to a cosmetic container and, more particularly, to a cosmetic container that can separately keep liquid make-up and powder makeup and can mix them for use.
  • 2. Description of the Related Art
  • Makeup is recently provided in various types such as a liquid state, gels, creams, and powders and used for various purposes such as beauty and protection of skin.
  • Such makeup is generally distributed in the market as cosmetics keeping the makeup in containers. As cosmetic containers, there are a container that can keep basic makeup such as toner and lotion, a container that can keep cream type makeup, a container that can keep color makeup such as an eyeshadow, a compact, a lip gloss, and the like. These cosmetic containers are composed of a body for keeping makeup and a lid for opening/closing the body.
  • Meanwhile, recently, functional cosmetics that use mixtures of lotions, which are liquid makeup, and powders have been developed and come onto the market.
  • Function cosmetics that use mixtures of lotions and powders are sold in the market as sets of containers separately keeping the lotions and the powders. In order to use the lotions and powders that are on the market in separate containers, as described above, a user first puts the powder into the lotion container by opening the lid of the container keeping the lotion. Next, the user closes the lid of the lotion container and appropriately shakes the container to mix the lotion and the powder, and then uses the makeup.
  • However, since those cosmetics are on the market as sets of containers separately keeping lotions and powders, users have to mix the lotions and the powders to use the cosmetics.
  • Further, while powders are put into lotion containers to be mixed with lotions, the powders may spill because the inlets of the lotion containers are small.
  • In particular, since the cosmetics are sold as sets of separate containers including the container for keeping a lotion and a container for keeping a powder, the manufacturing costs of the cosmetics are necessarily high.
  • Products that keep a lotion and a powder in one container have been developed to solve these problems, but the lotion and the powder are mixed before using in some cases and the structures for mixing them are complicated, so it is difficult to use the product. Therefore, there is a need for measures for solving these problems.
  • The technical configuration described above is the background for helping understand the present invention, but does not mean the related art that is widely known in the field of the present invention.
    • RELATED ART DOCUMENT Patent Document
