A cosmetic compact in the form of a small booklet of flexible sheet material comprising a one-piece base and cover, the latter being hingedly connected to the base and adapted to overlie the same. Heat-sealed to the members are substantially flat retainer sheets, both of which are provided with upstanding bead formations extending at least partially around peripheral edge portions thereof. The bead formations of each sheet are so arranged as to be capable of interfitting with one another and being frictionally nested, thereby to maintain the members in closed position when compact is not in use. Optionally, one or both of the bead formations can be provided with undercut surfaces to thereby improve the frictional retention between the two members. The flat space outlined by the bead formation of the base member is adapted to receive a tray of cosmetic material, and the space outlined by the bead formation of the cover member is available for securing a mirror thereto. The arrangement is such that an especially neat external appearance and soft touch is realized, in a compact characterized by small physical size and extremely low manufacturing cost.
