LIP STAMP

A lip stamp for applying a cosmetic lip product to a user's lips, including a handle, a rigid base secured to the handle, and an applicator head secured to the base. The periphery of the head has a shape and dimensions corresponding to one-half of a closed human mouth and is bilaterally symmetrical about a straight line corresponding in position to the interface between the lips of the closed mouth. The applicator surface may extend over the entire area within the periphery, or only over an area of an endless strip running along and outwardly bounded by the periphery. A lip cosmetic dispenser includes the lip stamp, a container for a cosmetic lip product into which the applicator head can be inserted to pick up the product for application, and a container lid having an opening releasably holding the lip stamp with the applicator head protected from exposure.
