ÉCLOS lipstick — Refillable lipstick: a case you keep, a cartridge you replaceAI-generated concept image

01 — The project

ÉCLOS lipstick

Five assemblies on one insertion axis: cap, refill cartridge, fluted shell, keyed locking insert, retaining base. Targets: Ø21.5 × 76 mm closed, 24 flutes at 0.30–0.40 mm radial depth, a 1.0 mm dark reveal.

Every image of this lipstick is AI-generated and illustrates design intent; none is a render of CAD and none is dimensionally accurate.
