The present invention provides a wiper for use in a container for pasty products, such as mascara, lip gloss, eyeshadow, dental or oral care products, ointments, or the like, which wiper (10) allows for the wiping of excess product from an applicator (3) as the applicator is withdrawn from a container (1), but does not wipe the applicator as it is placed into the container. The wiper of the present invention comprises two or more flaps (12) capable of occupying a first scraping position, when the applicator is withdrawn from the container, and a second non-scraping position, when the applicator is returned to the container. The non-scraping position of the flaps allows the applicator to be placed into the container without being wiped. This characteristic reduces the build-up of product within the neck of the container, thus providing a cleaner, aesthetically pleasing package for the consumer to use.
