<p>A hexagonal telescopic column (6) for a lipstick (2) is produced using a mould (30) having opposed mould parts (32,34) including formations (38,40,42,44) which, with formations provided on the core (36), define a number of spaced apart cavities for forming the sections (46,48,50,52) of the telescopic column (6). The mould parts (32,34) are closed around the core (36) and a molten plastics material injected into the mould. The mould parts (32,34) are then opened leaving the column sections (46,48,50,52) exposed on the core (36). While the plastics material is still warm, the core (36) is retracted through a base plate (54) of the mould (30), pulling the column sections (46,48,50,52) towards the base plate (54) to collapse the sections together. The collapsed column is then removed from the mould (30) for assembly into a lipstick. <IMAGE> <IMAGE> <IMAGE> <IMAGE></p> |
