Liquid make-up: a product that is both liquid and thick Liquid make-up is composed of pigments and is thicker than most standard liquid cosmetics. Filling this type of product is a complex process due to its viscosity on the one hand, and the narrow bottle neck on the other. The PKB designed filling nozzles means that PKB technology is perfectly suited to these viscosity related constraints. These nozzles make it possible to handle all the various foundation textures (oily, sticky, stringy) while adapting to any diameter of bottle neck. |

Mascara was originally made from antimony, a black rock with bluish tints that was crushed into a powder used to make an eye lotion, khol. Nomadic and semi-nomadic tribes from the high Algerian plateaus used it as a cosmetic, and also to prevent eye disease. Mascara as we know it today was developed by a French chemist, Eugene Rimmel, in around 1880, from a petroleum distillate, Vaseline. The name mascara comes from the Italian word “maschera” meaning mask. |

Lip-gloss: a product that is liquid….. in appearance only Lip-gloss is a liquid product derived from lipstick. Lip-gloss must be heated to be filled. This characteristic requires the use of a heating tank equipped with a device to maintain the temperature very accurately and a mixing system to ensure the product is homogeneous. The PKB SYNCHRO Lip-gloss machine achieves these tasks perfectly. Another significant advantage is that the lip-gloss applicator is fed by the same PKB patented sorting equipment as mascara brushes, thus offering even more versatility. |

Eye-liner: easy filling and capping thanks to the flexibility of the PKB SYNCHRO Unlike lip-gloss, eye-liner is a liquid product that does not require heating before filling. On the other hand, its filling and capping requirements are the same as for mascara. |
