ABSTRACT:
A cosmetic applicator such as a mascara applicator is provided including a container for the cosmetic. The container includes a constriction at its upper part, forming a wiper, and a cap fitted with a rod having at its end a brush which dips into the container as it passes through the constriction. The rod has, above the brush, an elastically deformable cleaning element whose diameter is at least substantially equal to the diameter of the constriction. The portion of the rod located between the cleaning element and the brush allows the pressures prevailing inside and outside the container to be substantially balanced before the brush engages the constriction when it is withdrawn.
