<p>The cosmetic container is comprised of three primary parts. These are a barrel (10), an elevator (20), and a cap (50). The elevator (20) has a cosmetic support surface (24), anchoring recesses and a well (22). The barrel is open at the top (12) and usually closed at the bottom (18), with an adjustment recess (16) in a surface. The well of the elevator slideably fits into the adjustment recess, and preferably conforms to the peripheral shape of the barrel. The well (22) functions as a device to raise the elevator upwardly to dispense product and as a reservoir for the product when it is in a liquid form during the filling of the barrel above the elevator. The well (22) holds the amount of product that is needed for the space between about the top of the barrel and a disposable cover that is shape the top cosmetic. After the barrel is filled and the disposable cover and cap put in place, the container is inverted with the liquid product flowing from the elevator well to the space between about the top of the barrel and the disposable cover. The product is set to a solid in this orientation.</p> |
