Description

The present invention relates to a double eyelid forming device for forming a pseudo double eyelid on the upper eyelid.

BACKGROUND ART Double eyelid forming tapes, in which adhesive tape is attached to the upper eyelids, have been known as double eyelid forming cosmetics for forming pseudo double eyelids. This tape for forming double eyelids has a mechanism of action that forms double eyelids, and the folds of the double eyelids are mainly formed by adhering the skin of the upper eyelids in a folded state using double-sided adhesive tape, as in Patent Document 1. (hereinafter referred to as "adhesive type") and an adhesive tape such as Patent Document 2 is pasted on the skin of the upper eyelid to form a hard film on the skin of the upper eyelid, and the upper eyelid is opened. When a double eyelid fold is formed by folding back the skin of the upper eyelid at the upper edge of the capsule (hereinafter referred to as a "capsule type"), there is also a tape member that is stretched as in Patent Document 3. It can be classified as a type that forms a double eyelid by making use of its elastic contractibility when the tape member is inserted into the upper eyelid (hereinafter referred to as "stretchable type"), and is used. They are used appropriately depending on the characteristics of the eyelids and preferences of the person.

By the way, the tape member of such a double eyelid formation tape is preferably thin, thin, and flexible so that it is not noticeable to third parties on the eyelids and does not give the user a sense of discomfort. When applying it to the eyelids, it is necessary to apply it as accurately as possible while avoiding wrinkles at the desired position on the eyelids.

In this regard, the above-mentioned "stretchable" tape is applied by grasping both ends of the tape member, stretching it in the longitudinal direction, and pressing the stretched tape member against the eyelid while keeping it taut. Since the tape member can be easily attached to the desired position on the eyelid without wrinkles, it can be said that the tape member has excellent operability.

On the other hand, in the case of the above-mentioned "adhesive type" and "film type" tapes, the tape member is peeled off from the mount and is pasted onto the eyelid, which has a convex curved surface, using the fingertips while maintaining its original shape. There is a need. Therefore, it is not always easy to neatly apply the tape member to the desired position on the eyelid without wrinkles.

Therefore, Patent Documents 4 to 6 propose an applicator for use with such a double eyelid forming tape that is attached to the eyelid while maintaining the original shape of the tape member. In Patent Document 4, a stick formed in a substantially V-shape by two rod-like members is used as an applicator, and both ends of a tape member (adhesive tape) are temporarily attached to the tip of each rod-like member. The tape member is attached to the eyelid.

[First embodiment]
<Overall configuration>
The double eyelid forming device 1 according to the present invention is for forming a pseudo double eyelid on the upper eyelid, and as shown in FIGS. 1(a) to 1(c), a tape member 10, an applicator 30, It has a frame part 48. The tape member 10 is attached to the upper eyelid to form a double eyelid and maintain the formed double eyelid. The applicator 30 is for attaching the tape member 10 to the eyelids to form double eyelids. The frame portion 48 extends in the axial direction along a pair of outer ends 33 formed on both sides of the applicator 30 in the width direction. Each component will be explained in detail below.

(tape member)
As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the tape member 10 is formed of a tape body 11 and first and second adhesive layers 12a and 12b, and the second adhesive layer 12b allows the tip of the applicator 30 to be It is attached to the inner surface 31 of the portion 38. The tape body 11 is made of synthetic resin and extends in the width W direction in an elongated rectangular shape. A first surface 11a is formed on the inside in the thickness direction of the tape body 11, and a second surface 11b is formed on the outside in the thickness direction. It extends along. The first surface 11a and the second surface 11b are formed in a rectangular shape elongated in the width direction like the tape body 11, and therefore, the tape body 11 has a pair of side edges 11c and 11d extending in the longitudinal direction. They are formed in straight lines that are parallel to each other.

At both ends of the tape body 11 in the longitudinal direction, a pair of extensions extend outward in the width W direction of the applicator 30 from the first end 38a and the second end 38b of the tip 38 of the applicator 30, respectively. Portions 10b, 10b are formed. That is, the length Lt of the tape body 11 in the longitudinal direction is larger than the length La between the first end 38a and the second end 38b of the tip 38 of the applicator 30. At this time, the length Lt of the tape body 11 is formed to be equal to or slightly shorter than the length in the width direction of the eyelid e between the outer corner and inner corner of the eye (see FIG. 7(a)). Note that the extending portions 10b, 10b of the tape body 11 are formed in a trapezoidal shape that is inclined so that the width in the transverse direction of the tape body 11 decreases as it advances toward the distal end side when viewed from the front.

As shown in FIG. 4, the entire surface of the first surface 11a of the tape body 11 is provided with a first adhesive layer 12a for attachment to the eyelid e, and the entire surface of the second surface 11b of the tape body 11 is provided with a first adhesive layer 12a for attachment to the eyelid e. is provided with a second adhesive layer 12b. In this embodiment, the first adhesive layer 12a and the second adhesive layer 12b are formed with the same adhesive and have the same thickness, and as a result, have the same adhesive strength. That is, as will be described later, in this embodiment, the second adhesive layer 12b is also used for adhesion to the eyelid e, and the tape member 10 is attached to the skin of the upper eyelid in a folded state. This corresponds to the above-mentioned "adhesive type" double eyelid forming tape that forms double eyelids (double eyelid folds) by causing the tape to form double eyelids. On the other hand, when the adhesive strength of the second adhesive layer 12b is made sufficiently lower than that of the first adhesive layer 12a, such a tape member 10 forms a hard film on the skin of the eyelid e, and The above-mentioned "film type" double eyelid forming tape can be used, in which a double eyelid (double eyelid fold) is formed by folding back the skin of the eyelid e at the upper edge of the film when e is opened.

Here, as the synthetic resin forming such a tape body 11, it is possible to use polyester resin (for example, PET resin), polyolefin resin, etc., but preferably polyolefin resin, more preferably polypropylene resin. is used. Moreover, the first and second adhesive layers 12a. The adhesive forming the adhesive 12b is not particularly limited as long as it can be used on the human body, but preferably a medical acrylic adhesive is used.

A release paper 14 that is easily peelable from the first adhesive layer 12a is stuck on the first adhesive layer 12a. The release paper 14 is formed of a paper sheet, and is formed in a rectangular shape so as to cover the entire first surface 11a of the tape member 10 (that is, the entire surface of the first adhesive layer 12a). Therefore, the entire surface of the first adhesive layer 12a provided on the first surface 11a can be protected by the release paper 14, and when the release paper 14 is peeled off from the first surface 11a, the first adhesive layer 12a is removed. The entire surface can be exposed.

More specifically, the release paper 14 has an inner surface 14a and an outer surface 14b, and on the inner surface 14a on the side to be adhered to the first adhesive layer 12a, a adhesive made of, for example, fluororesin or silicone resin is provided. A release layer is formed. Therefore, the release paper 14 can be easily peeled off from the tape member 10. Here, the easily peelable layer may also be provided on the outer surface 14b. Further, as shown in FIG. 1(b), the release paper 14 is divided into two sheets in the longitudinal direction by a break line 14c that is inclined with respect to a pair of side edges 11c and 11d extending in the longitudinal direction of the tape main body 11. has been done. In this embodiment, a break line 14c is provided at the middle part of the short side of the release paper 14 in the width direction. Therefore, the release paper 14 divided into two sheets can be easily peeled off from the tape member 10 starting from the acute angle portions formed at both ends of the break line 14c. Note that the direction in which the break line 14c extends is not limited to the diagonal direction with respect to the side edges 11c and 11d, but may extend in any direction as long as the release paper 14 can be easily peeled off from the tape member 10. It's okay. Further, the break line 14c does not necessarily need to be provided, and the release paper 14 may be formed of one sheet.

(applicator)
As shown in FIGS. 1(b) and 2, the applicator 30 is formed in the shape of a vertically long tongue by a flexible sheet extending in the direction of the axis J. The applicator 30 also has an inner surface 31 formed on the inner side in the thickness direction, an outer surface 32 formed on the outer side in the thickness direction, and a distal end portion 38 formed on one distal end side in the direction of the axis J. It has a base end portion 39 formed on the other base end side, and is formed symmetrically in the width W direction with respect to the axis J. At this time, as the material for forming the applicator 30, various flexible sheets that can be bent with the fingertips are suitably used, but in this embodiment, among such sheets, paper sheets are used. sheet is used.

A tip 36, which is a tip edge of the applicator 30, extends linearly in the width W direction of the applicator 30. The distal end portion 38 including the distal end 36 is formed into an elongated band shape in the width W direction, and has a first end 38a and a second end 38b on both sides of the axis J in the longitudinal direction. have. In this embodiment, the tip portion 38 is formed in a rectangular shape extending in the width W direction of the applicator 30. Further, the applicator 30 has a pair of breakage removal portions 37 integrally extending outward in the width W direction of the applicator 30 from each of the first end 38a and the second end 38b of the tip portion 38. ing. Further, the breakage removal section 37 is formed integrally with a frame section 48, which will be described later, and is formed into a trapezoidal shape so as to match the shape of both ends of the tape member 10 in the longitudinal direction. That is, the break removal section 37, the frame section 48, and the applicator 30 are formed of the same sheet (in this embodiment, a paper sheet), and are integrally connected to each other on the same sheet.

As shown in FIGS. 1(b) and 4, the tape member 10 has at least an intermediate portion 10c including its longitudinal center supported by the inner surface 31 of the tip 38 of the applicator 30. It is attached to the inner surface 31 of 38 with the second adhesive layer 12b. In this embodiment, the entire surface of the second surface 11b of the tape member 10 excluding the pair of extensions 10b, 10b is covered by the second adhesive layer 12b over the entire inner surface 31 of the tip portion 38 of the applicator 30. It is pasted. Further, the pair of extension parts 10b, 10b of the tape member 10 are respectively attached to the inner surface 31 of the corresponding breakage removal part 37. That is, the tape member 10 extends linearly along the tip 36 of the applicator 30 and is attached to the inner surface 31 of the tip 38 and the inner surface 31 of the breakage removal section 37.

Here, the inner surface 31 of the tip portion 38 of the applicator 30 is provided with an easily peelable portion 31a that is easily peelable from the second adhesive layer 12b of the tape member 10. By doing so, the adhesive strength between the tape member 10 and the applicator 30 due to the second adhesive layer 12b is made to be weaker than the adhesive strength between the tape member 10 and the skin of the eyelid e due to the first adhesive layer 12a. ing. Further, the easily peelable portion 31a is also provided on the inner surface 31 of the breakage removal portion 37, so that the breakage removal portion 37 can be easily peeled off from the tape member 10. In this embodiment, the easily peelable portion 31a is provided on the entire inner surface 31 and the entire outer surface 32 of the applicator. Note that the easily peelable portion 31a can be formed by, for example, an easily peelable layer such as a fluororesin layer or a silicone resin layer provided on the inner surface 31 and the outer surface 32.

As shown in FIGS. 1(b) and 2, a pair of outer ends 33 extending along the axis J direction are formed at both ends of the applicator 30 in the width W direction. Each of the pair of outer ends 33 includes a first outer end 34 that tilts outward in the width W direction as it progresses from the proximal end side to the distal end side of the applicator 30, and a first outer end 34 that is connected to the tip of each of the first outer ends 34 and extends toward the distal end side. It has a second outer end 35 which is inclined inward in the width W direction as it advances and is connected to a first end 38a and a second end 38b of the distal end portion 38 of the applicator 30. The pair of first outer ends 34 and the pair of second outer ends 35 are formed symmetrically in the width W direction with respect to the axis J of the applicator 30.

That is, the second outer end 35 is connected to the proximal end portion of the breakage removal portion 37 on the inner side in the width W direction. Therefore, as will be described later, when the applicator 30 is pulled up with respect to the frame portion 48, the breakage removal portions 37, 37 are broken at the first end 38a and second end 38b of the tip portion 38 of the applicator. It is designed to be separated from the applicator 30 together with the frame portion 48 . Further, the proximal end portion 39 of the applicator 30 is formed to be tapered (that is, the width gradually becomes narrower) toward the proximal edge in the direction of the axis J. The proximal end portion 39 of the applicator 30 including the proximal edge can be used to adjust the shape and width of the double eyelid formed on the eyelid e, as will be described later.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 1(b), the base end portion 39 of the applicator 30 is formed with a grip portion 40 that can be gripped with fingertips (eg, thumb and index finger). The grip portion 40 is formed by a partitioned portion sandwiched between a pair of first outer ends 34 in the width W direction of the applicator 30 . Therefore, the grip portion 40 becomes wider in the direction of the axis J from the proximal end toward the distal end. Then, as shown in FIG. 6(b), by pinching and gripping this gripping part 40 with the fingertips f of one hand from both sides in the width W direction sandwiching the axis J on the outer surface 32 side of the applicator 30, the applicator can be removed. 30 can be deformed into a curved state so that the inner surface 31 side thereof is concave.
In this embodiment, since the length of the first outer end 34 in the direction of the axis J is longer than that of the second outer end 35, a sufficient length of the gripping portion 40 in the direction of the axis J is ensured. has been done.

Thus, in this embodiment, the pair of outer ends 33 are formed symmetrically in the width W direction with respect to the axis J (that is, the applicator 30 is formed symmetrically in the width W direction with respect to the axis J). Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 6(a) and 6(b), when both sides of the gripping portion 40 in the width W direction are gripped with fingertips f from the outer surface 32 side, the tip portion 38 is symmetrically moved in the width W direction with respect to the axis J. Can be curved. As a result, the tape member 10 can also be curved symmetrically in its longitudinal direction (i.e., in the width W direction of the applicator 30) with respect to the axis J.

Further, as described above, since the applicator 30 is formed of a flexible sheet (a paper sheet in this embodiment), the tape member 10 is pasted as shown in FIG. 7(a). When the tip 38 of the applicator 30 is pressed against the skin of the eyelid e, the curved tip 38 deforms to follow the curved shape of the eyelid e against which it is pressed. In other words, the degree of curvature of the tip 38 of the applicator 30 is adjusted to better match the curved shape of the eyelid e against which it is pressed. Further, the degree of curvature of the distal end portion 38 of the applicator 30 can be intentionally adjusted by changing the position in the direction of the axis J where the gripping portion 40 is pinched and the force with which the gripping portion 40 is pinched. According to the applicator 30 having such a configuration, the tape member 10 can be curved to follow the curved shape of the eyelid e and can be neatly and easily attached to the eyelid e without causing wrinkles. I can do it.

Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 1(b) and 6(b), the gripping portion 40 has a convex shape on the outer surface 32 when the gripping portion 40 is pinched with the fingertips f of one hand. A grip assisting portion 45 is provided that assists gripping with the fingertips f by promoting deformation. In this embodiment, the gripping auxiliary portion 45 is formed by a folding auxiliary line 45a formed so that the gripping portion 40 is mountain-folded toward the outer surface 32 when the gripping portion 40 is pinched with the fingertips f. There is. The folding auxiliary line 45a extends along the axis J from the proximal end side to the distal end side of the applicator 30 to approximately the same position in the direction of the axis J where the first outer end 34 and the second outer end 35 connect. Extends. In this way, by providing the folding auxiliary line 45a on the applicator 30, when the gripping part 40 is gripped with the fingertips f of one hand, the outer surface 32 side of the gripping part 40 is folded in a mountain shape around the folding auxiliary line 45a. It bends. Therefore, the gripping of the applicator 30 with the fingertip f and the accompanying bending operation become easy, and as a result, the tip 38 of the applicator 30 can be easily curved so that the inner surface 31 side thereof becomes concave. becomes possible

(frame part)
As shown in FIG. The distal end of the extending frame portion 48 is integrally connected. In this embodiment, the frame portion 48 has flexibility, and extends along the pair of outer ends 33 from the connecting portion with the pair of breakage removal portions 37, 37 located on the distal end side of the applicator 30. The applicator 30 is formed by a U-shaped frame 49 that extends from the side and surrounds the proximal end side of the applicator 30 . Further, like the applicator 30, the frame body 49 is also formed symmetrically in the width W direction with respect to the axis J.

The outer contour of the frame body 49 is formed in a rectangular shape that is long in the axial direction when viewed from the front, and a central portion of the frame body 49 has a shape that extends in the axial direction and has approximately the same shape as the outer shape of the applicator 30. A hole 49a penetrating in the thickness direction is provided. Through holes 49b are provided at four corners of the frame 49. A shaft portion 62 (see FIG. 12(b)) for holding a plurality of double eyelid forming tools 1 in an overlapping state is inserted through the through hole 49b. Note that the frame body 49 (frame portion 48) may be separated into two parts in the width W direction of the applicator 30 with the applicator 30 interposed in the center. In this case, the proximal end of the applicator 30 extends to the proximal end of the frame 49, as shown by the two-dot chain line.

Next, a procedure for separating the applicator 30 from the frame portion 48 (frame body 49) in the double eyelid forming device 1 will be explained. First, the proximal end 39 of the applicator 30 is held with the fingertips, and the proximal end 39 is lifted up toward the inner surface 31 with respect to the frame portion 48, as shown in FIG. Then, the applicator 30 rotates and rises between the tips of the second outer ends 35, 35 (that is, the tip 38 of the applicator) connected to the pair of breakage removal parts 37, 37, respectively. Then, the raised applicator 30 is further rotated by 90 degrees or more relative to the frame portion 48 (to a position where the proximal end 39 exceeds the distal end 38 in the direction of the axis J) and pulled in the direction of the axis J. exert force.

Then, a shearing force in the direction of the axis J acts between the first end 38a and second end 38b of the tip 38 of the applicator 30 and the pair of breakage removal parts 37, 37, and the shearing force causes the tip The breaking and removing parts 37, 37 are broken (cut) at the first end 38a and second end 38b of the part 38, and the applicator 30 is separated from the frame part 48. At the same time as the separation, the pair of extension parts 10b, 10b attached to the break removal part 37 of the tape member 10 are peeled off from the break removal part 37. As a result, as shown in FIG. 3, the pair of extending portions 10b, 10b disposed on both sides in the longitudinal direction of the tape member 10 extend from the first end 38a and second end 38b of the tip portion 38 of the applicator 30. , the applicator 30 protrudes outward in the width W direction and is exposed.

<Method for forming double eyelids using a double eyelid forming tool>
Below, a method for forming double eyelids using the double eyelid forming tool 1 will be described with reference to each figure. First, the release paper 14 is peeled off and removed from the tape member 10, and then the applicator 30 is separated from the frame portion 48 as shown in FIG. The extension portions 10b, 10b are peeled off from the breakage removal portions 37, 37 integrally connected to the frame portion 48. At this time, the timing for removing the release paper 14 from the tape member 10 may be after the applicator 30 is separated from the frame portion 48, especially when the release paper 14 is provided with the breaking line 14c. When the applicator 30 is separated from the frame portion 48 in this way, as shown in FIG. are in a state of protruding outward from the first end 38a and second end 38b of the distal end portion 38 of the applicator 30.

Next, as shown in FIG. 6(b), with the outer surface 32 of the applicator 30 facing upward, by pinching both sides of the grip portion 40 in the width W direction from the outer surface 32 side with the fingertips f of one hand. , the inner surface 31 of the tape member 10 is curved concavely. At this time, as described above, since the folding auxiliary line 45a as the grasping auxiliary part 45 is formed on the grasping part 40, the folding auxiliary line 45a as the grasping auxiliary part 45 is formed on the grasping part 40. The grip portion 40 is mountain-folded toward the outer surface 32 around the auxiliary line 45a, and as a result, the grip portion 40 can be easily gripped with the fingertips f. Further, depending on the shape of the eyelid e, preference, etc., as described above, the gripping position of the gripping part 40 in the direction of the axis J and the gripping force of the gripping part 40 can be changed, so that the applicator 30 can be adjusted. It is also possible to adjust the degree of curvature of the tip portion 38, that is, the degree of curvature of the tape member 10.

Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 7(a), the tip 38 of the applicator 30 is turned so that the inner surface 31 to which the tape member 10 is attached is directed toward the eyelid e side to form a double eyelid fold in the closed eyelid e. Press it where you want it. Then, the entire first surface 11a of the tape body 11 of the tape member 10 is adhered to the surface e1 of the eyelid e (see FIG. 8(b)) by the first adhesive layer 12a (see FIG. 3). At this time, as described above, since the applicator 30 is formed of a flexible sheet, the tip 38 of the applicator 30 to which the tape member 10 is attached is pressed against the skin of the eyelid e. At this time, the curved tip 38 deforms to follow the curved shape of the eyelid e against which it is pressed. In other words, the degree of curvature of the tip 38 of the applicator 30 is adjusted to better match the curved shape of the eyelid e against which it is pressed. Therefore, the tape member 10 can be neatly and easily adhered to the surface e1 of the eyelid e without causing wrinkles.

Then, as shown in FIG. 7(b), FIG. 8(a), and FIG. 8(b), when the closed eyelid e is opened, the eyelid e is folded back by the tip 36 of the applicator 30, and the eyelid e has a double eyelid. As the folds h are formed, the distal end portion 38 of the applicator 30 is accommodated (that is, inserted) inside the folds h. At this time, with the fingertips of the hand opposite to the hand holding the applicator 30, press the fold h from its outer surface h1 as shown by the arrow F1 in FIG. 8(b), and press the first adhesive layer 12a. By making the tape member 10 more familiar with the surface e1 of the eyelid e, the tape member 10 can be more reliably adhered to the surface e1 of the eyelid e.

Further, the applicator 30 is peeled off from the second adhesive layer 12b of the tape member 10 stuck to the surface e1 of the eyelid e inside the fold h, and the applicator 30 is removed from the inside of the fold h. At this time, the inner surface 31 of the applicator 30 is provided with the easy-to-peel portion (easy-to-peel layer) 31a, and in this embodiment, the pair of extending portions 10b, 10b of the tape body 11 are provided with the first While the adhesive layer 12a is attached to the surface e1 of the eyelid e, the second adhesive layer 12b is not attached to the applicator 30 and is exposed. Therefore, with the tape member 10 still attached to the surface e1 of the eyelid e, the applicator can be removed from the tape member 10 starting from the first end 38a or second end 38b of the tip 38 of the applicator 30. 30 can be easily peeled off. That is, in the operation of peeling off the tip 38 of the applicator 30 from the tape member 10 stuck to the surface e1 of the eyelid e, by applying a rotational motion around the axis J, the tip 38 is removed from the applicator 30 to the surface e1 of the eyelid e. The tape member 10 can be easily and reliably transferred.

In this manner, the tape member 10 is transferred from the applicator 30 to the inside of the fold h of the double eyelid, and at the same time, the fold h is again pressed from its outer surface h1, as shown by the arrow F2 in FIG. By doing so, the entire second adhesive layer 12b can be adhered to the inner surface h2 of the fold h. As a result, as shown in FIG. 9, the surface e1 of the eyelid e and the inner surface h2 of the fold h, which are overlapped on the inside of the fold h of the double eyelid, are fixedly adhered to each other by the tape member 10 as a double-sided tape, A double eyelid is formed on the eyelid e. At this time, as described above, the tapered proximal end 39 side of the applicator 30 can be used to adjust the shape and width of the double eyelid. As described above, since the tape member 10 of the present embodiment corresponds to the above-mentioned "adhesive type" double eyelid forming tape, the surface e1 of the eyelid e and the inner surface h2 of the fold h overlapped on the inside of the fold h. is always adhered to by the tape member 10 regardless of whether the eyelid e is opened or closed.

On the other hand, in the tape member 10, if the adhesive strength of the second adhesive layer 12b is made sufficiently lower than that of the first adhesive layer 12a, that is, the tape member 10 becomes the "film type" double eyelid forming tape. In corresponding cases, the first surface 11a of the tape body 11 is adhered to the surface e1 of the eyelid e with sufficient strength by the first adhesive layer 12a, while the second surface 11b is adhered to the surface e1 of the eyelid e by the first adhesive layer 12a. Either the adhesive strength of the adhesive layer 12b to the inner surface h2 of the pleats h is extremely weak, or the second adhesive layer 12b does not adhere to the inner surface h2 of the pleats h. Therefore, when the eyelids e are closed (eyes closed), the folds h of the double eyelids practically disappear, but when the eyelids are open (eyes open), the surface of the eyelids e is The skin of the eyelid e is folded back at the upper edge of the tape member 10 attached to e1, thereby forming double eyelid folds h.

As described above, in the double eyelid forming device 1 according to the present embodiment, the applicator 30 with the tape member 10 attached to the tip portion 38 has excellent flexibility and has the gripping assisting portion 45. ing. Therefore, the grip portion 40 can be easily grasped with the fingertip f of one hand, thereby easily causing the inner surface 31 of the tip portion 38 of the applicator 30 to curve concavely. Further, when the distal end portion 38 of the applicator 30 curved in this way is pressed against the skin of the eyelid e, the distal end portion 38 to which the tape member 10 is attached is exposed to the excellent flexibility of the applicator 30. Due to its flexibility, it deforms to follow the curved shape of the eyelid e against which it is pressed. That is, the degree of curvature of the tip 38 to which the tape member 10 is attached is adjusted to better suit the curved shape of the eyelid e against which it is pressed. Therefore, according to this double eyelid forming device 1, regardless of whether the tape member 10 is the "adhesive type" or "film type" double eyelid forming tape, the tape member 10 is attached to the surface e1 of the eyelid e. 10 can be applied neatly and easily without wrinkles.
