A device (10) for packaging and applying a pasty product, notably a cosmetic product, comprising: a case (14); an external protective shell (30) mounted on the case (14) and provided on the interior surface thereof with at least one helical groove (36); a tubular element (40) mounted to rotate freely in said external protective shell (30), while being held axially relative to said shell and provided with at least one longitudinal groove (42); and a cup (20) supporting a stick (12) of product mounted to slide in said tubular element (40). The cup (20) comprises a lower cup (22) carrying the stud (23) and an upper cup (24) carrying the stick (12) of product and comprising an axial projection (24c) extending axially toward the base of the case (14) through an orifice (22d) provided on the lower cup (22), said lower and upper cups (22, 24) being integral via a push-push latch locking/unlocking system (50).

A consumer product includes a housing defining an internal volume. An engaging mechanism is coupled to or integral with the housing. A cartridge is configured to be inserted into the internal volume through a first end of the housing, and the engaging mechanism is configured to engage a second engaging mechanism on the cartridge. An elevation mechanism is positioned at least partially within the internal volume. An actuating device is coupled to the housing proximate to a second end of the housing. The elevation mechanism is configured to move in response to actuation of the actuating device.

Disclosed herein are actuator based packages for use with cartridge refills. A package includes a container configured to hold a cartridge refill, a replaceable cap configured to fit the container, and an actuator mechanism integral with the container. The actuator mechanism is configured to compress the cartridge refill to dispense a useable material contained in the cartridge refill. The actuator mechanism can be a slider mechanism. The actuator mechanism can be a screw mechanism.

A refillable stick foundation container is provided. The refillable stick foundation container includes; an assembly accommodating a stick foundation and having a latching protrusion protruding downward from the lower surface thereof; a rotary tube accommodating the assembly inserted thereinto such that the lower surface of the assembly is seated on the bottom thereof, having an open hole which is formed at the bottom thereof and into which the latching protrusion is inserted, and rotating relative to the assembly such that the stick foundation is upwardly exposed or hidden; and a coupling block laterally slidably inserted into and in close contact with the lower surface of the rotary tube and having a latching portion which is formed on the upper surface thereof and to which the latching protrusion is latched.

A repeatedly refillable and reusable container is provided. The repeatedly refillable and reusable container includes a dispenser body. The dispenser body has a formed end with sides protruding therefrom, forming a receptacle accessible via an aperture. The receptacle of the dispenser body is designed to conjoin with a material refill unit by removing an enclosure apparatus and allowing the material refill unit to couple to, refill, and dispense the material of the material refill unit. When the material of the conforming material refill unit coupled with the dispenser body is dispensed, and the material refill unit is removed, a replacement material refill unit may be coupled to the dispenser body. Whereby the coupling of the material refill unit to the dispenser body refills the dispenser rendering the dispenser body reusable by the removal of the exhausted material refill unit.

A refillable lipstick is provided. In one implementation, a high-quality permanent lipstick dispenser incorporates a screw-type catch or a magnetic catch that enables replacement of the lipstick within the dispenser. Lipstick refills may be installed and removed from the dispenser with an extractor. In an implementation, the dispenser includes a sleeve that is arranged to extend and retract within the dispenser, to provide access to the lipstick for removal and/or installation.

A packaged deodorant stick product comprising a deodorant stick composition, a retaining member and a holder, the deodorant stick composition being mounted on the retaining member and the retaining member comprises one of a bayonet element and a socket and the holder comprises the other of the bayonet element and the socket, wherein the bayonet element is lockably receivable within the socket such that the retaining member is removably connectable to the holder.

A product dispensing apparatus including a reusable product dispenser and a refill cartridge configured to releasably couple to the reusable product dispenser. The reusable product dispenser includes a housing defining a longitudinal axis, a base rotatably coupled to a proximal portion of the housing, and a telescope assembly. The base is configured to rotate about the longitudinal axis in a first direction and a second direction. The telescope assembly includes a proximal section and a distal section movable relative to the proximal section along the longitudinal axis defined by the housing between a collapsed condition and an extended condition. At least one of the proximal section or the distal section is operably coupled to the base such that rotation of the base about the longitudinal axis causes corresponding rotation of the telescope assembly about the longitudinal axis.

A refillable lipstick is provided. In one implementation, a high-quality permanent lipstick dispenser incorporates a screw-type catch or a magnetic catch that enables replacement of the lipstick within the dispenser. Lipstick refills may be installed and removed from the dispenser with an extractor. In an implementation, the dispenser includes a sleeve that is arranged to extend and retract within the dispenser, to provide access to the lipstick for removal and/or installation.

A cosmetic applicator device including a refillable stick case and a base for receiving the refillable stick case. The refillable stick case is configured to be removably coupled to the base. The refillable stick case includes a stick holder for holding a stick of a cosmetic material and a tubular guide surrounding the stick holder. The tubular guide extends along a first longitudinal direction between a tubular guide coupling end and a tubular guide open end. The tubular guide includes a main portion having a main portion outer diameter and a coupling portion longitudinally extending from the main portion to the tubular guide coupling end. The base includes an inner member including a guiding protrusion is configured to guide the coupling portion outer surface of the tubular guide during the insertion of the refillable stick case into the base.
