Claim:
Distributor-applicator ( 1 ) mobile in the axial direction ( 10 ) designed to contain a cosmetic ( 5 ), comprising a body ( 2 ) forming a cylindrical and longitudinal cavity ( 20 ) with a height H along its axial direction ( 21 ) containing said cosmetic ( 5 ), and in which there is an opening, said body ( 2 ) being provided with a lateral skirt ( 24 ), fixed with a rim ( 243 ) or a head ( 22 ) at its top end containing a threaded neck ( 220 ) surrounding said opening ( 23 ), and forming a bottom ( 25 ) at its bottom end, and an applicator ( 3 ) comprising a threaded cap ( 30 ) forming a means of gripping said applicator ( 3 ) and intended to cooperate with said rim ( 243 ) or said neck ( 220 ) of said head ( 22 ), a rod or a longitudinal support ( 31 ) and an application means ( 32 ), comprising a brush ( 320 ) consisting of one or several rows of bristles, said rod ( 31 ) being fixed to said cap ( 30 ) at one of its ends, and fixed to said application means ( 32 ) at its other end, such that said application means ( 32 ), at the contact of said product ( 5 ) when said cap closes off said opening ( 23 ) of said body ( 2 ), collects some of said product ( 5 ) and after separation of said applicator ( 3 ) from said body ( 2 ), including an axial translation, enables application of said collected product on a support, and characterised in that: a) said body ( 2 ) comprises an axial partition in said cavity ( 20 ) so as to form an axial sequence of N staged compartments ( 200 ) in said cavity ( 20 ), denoted C 1 to C N , where N varies from 2 to 4, each compartment C i with height H i containing said cosmetic(s) P i , said cosmetic(s) P i being different from said cosmetic(s) P i+1 in compartment C i+1 located above it, and said cosmetic P i being a fluid product, b) axial partition comprises N−1 separation means S ( 4 , 4 ′), said separation means S ( 4 , 4 ′) being denoted S i , where i is equal to not more than N−1, between two successive compartments C i and C i+1 , c) each compartment Ci, where i>1, comprising a volume forming a storage means for said product P i , and also a complementary or free volume ( 27 ) forming a communication means, such that said application means ( 32 ) can access each of said compartments C i , where i′<i, in order to collect said corresponding products P i′ , in which said separation means S i ( 4 , 4 ′) comprises a central orifice O i ( 40 ) forming said communication means between the compartments C i and C i+1 and forming an axial passage for said application means ( 32 ), said separation means S i ( 4 , 4 ′) delimiting said compartment C i near the top and thus forming a partition between said compartments C i and C i+1 of said cavity ( 20 ).
