It is preferable in terms of portability and usability that an appropriate volume (about 3 to 10 milliliters) and a small one are used.

Further, the spatula member 4 of the present invention has little swelling due to absorption of the liquid content in the liquid content 2,
In addition, when the content of the component is low in adsorption, for example, when the liquid content is a solvent type such as nail polish, the component in the nail polish is absorbed and swells, or the content component is adsorbed. Is not preferred. On the other hand, in the case of a polypropylene material, it is confirmed from the results of preliminary stability tests that the components in the nail varnish are less likely to swell by absorbing the components and that the components are less adsorbed.

Further, the width of the spatula member 4 is preferably about 4 to 6 mm, but when the width is 4 mm, there is a feature that the details of the nail can be finely and precisely applied.
The application amount of the liquid content 2 is not necessarily proportional to the width of the spatula member 4.
