PROTECTIVE UNDER-CAP AND METHOD FOR LIPSTICK

The invention comprises a transparent, molded under-cap (10) which fits over the open end of a lipstick type case (2) from which a lipstick or other similar waxy mass (4) is propelled, and which engages the shoulder of the case (2) normally engaged by the lipstck cap (5) when it is in place. The under-cap (10) is sized to fit snugly within the lipstick cap (5), yet permits the cap (5) to be removed while the under-cap (10) remains in place over the lipstick (4). In this manner, the lipstick cap (5) may be removed from the lipstick case (2) to view the lipstick (4) while the under-cap (10) remains in place to protect the lipstick (4).
