A container for keeping and dispensing to the end a semisolid substance such as lipstick or glue. The container comprises a substance holder with a radially protruding holder pin, an intermediate cylinder with an open end for exposing the substance and with an axially extending guiding slit, and an outer sleeve with an internal helical groove. The holder pin passes through the guiding slit and is received in the helical groove in such a way that a rotation of the outer sleeve causes the axial displacement of the substance holder. The holder has an axially movable bottom and is thereby capable of ejecting the substance from the holder to provide for its full use. The container has means for self-arresting the movable bottom against substantial back movement relative to the substance holder.
