A stackable container, including a body and a cap threadingly engageable with a neck portion of the body and having a vaulted interior and a top portion formed with a frustrum-shaped depression for snap-registered engagement with a base portion of a counterpart of the body, the cap further including handle projections and a skirt. Opposite stop structures prevent rotation of the cap relative to the body beyond predetermined threaded engagement; a detent releasably captures the body in the predetermined threaded engagement. A base portion of the body having inclined side walls facilitates rotation of the body with respect to the cap. The skirt guides the body into alignment with the cap. The base can have four of the side walls forming a square, the containers of a stack having any of four relative orientations. A consumable product such as a cosmetic can extend into the cap from the body.

A cosmetic packaging device with aligning cap includes connection structures and/or a collar that facilitate easy alignment of the cap/applicator to the cosmetics packaging in order to achieve a desirable appearance in an easy manner to the user. Ramped edges on one or both of the collar on a bottle and/or a connecting structure of an applicator are designed to guide a tab into a slot as the applicator and cap are replaced on the cosmetics packaging, which may contain a cosmetic product such as a mascara, lip gloss or various other products.

A lip balm assembly is disclosed. The lip balm assembly includes a main tube, lip balm, and ornamental object. The main tube defines an open top side, and a closed bottom side, and a chamber therebetween, with the lip balm being disposed in the chamber. The ornamental object may be embedded in the lip balm proximal the closed bottom side, with the ornamental object being exposable from the lip balm through a reduction of the lip balm disposed proximal the open top side. In certain embodiments, urging the ornamental object towards the open top side further facilitates the ornamental object being exposed from the lip balm.

A makeup extension wand system includes a body, including a frame with left and right vertical frame segment, and a stationary axle; and extension wand assemblies, rotatably and detachably mounted to the stationary axle, each including an extension shaft, an applicator tip, and a connector portion that can be rear or front offset, such that each extension wand assembly is rotatable to a vertical folded-in orientation for storage of the extension wand assembly and to a folded-out orientation for use of the extension wand assembly.

A beauty system including a lid, one or more stacking jars containing cosmetics, skin care compositions, or hair care compositions and a base is described herein.

A lip balm applicator product comprises upper and lower portions that are connectable together to define the applicator product being of a substantially spherical shape. A support platform is located in the lower portion and accommodates a quantity of lip balm having an arcuate surface. A lip balm comprises a composition of waxes and oils in solid form and formed to have an arcuate surface. The composition is formed to have the arcuate surface using a hot pour process. A method of manufacturing a lip balm comprises providing a receptacle having a concave arcuate surface. A lip balm material in a heated, liquefied phase is poured into the receptacle. Once poured, the heated, liquefied phase is allowed to solidify such that a surface of the solidified lip balm material has an arcuate configuration that corresponds to the concave arcuate surface of the receptacle.

A decoration element including: a color developing layer including a light reflective layer and a light absorbing layer provided on the light reflective layer; and a substrate provided on a surface of the color developing layer. The substrate comprises a pattern layer, and the light absorbing layer comprises an aluminum oxynitride (Al.sub.aO.sub.bN.sub.c).

The present invention generally relates to wearable, jewelry and storage devices. Specifically, this invention relates to wearable jewelry having the ability to store materials, including cosmetic makeup materials, lotions, and perfumes.

Discloses is a method for manufacturing a dual cosmetic container. The method includes: molding an inner preform 40 or 40a formed with a patterned portion having one or more shapes selected from characters, pictures, figures, and helical grooves on the outer surface thereof using an upper mold 10 for the inner preform having a molding space 11 and formed with a pattern molding portion 12a on the inner circumferential surface thereof and an lower mold 14 for the inner preform having a molding space 15 for a discharge portion; inserting the inner preform 40 or 40a into a molding space 21 of an upper mold 20 for an outer preform, fixing a discharge portion 41 of the inner preform 40 or 40a to a lower mold 23 for the outer preform, feeding a liquid raw material into the molding space 21 of the upper mold 20 for the outer preform, and molding the outer preform 50 in close contact with the outer surface of the inner preform 40 or 40a formed with the patterned portion 42; and simultaneously heating the inner preform 40 or 40a and the outer preform 50 molded in close contact with each other, inserting the two heated preforms into a molding space 31 of a blow mold 30, inserting a blow tube 32 into the discharge portion 41 of the inner preform 40 or 40a, and simultaneously expanding the inner preform 40 or 40a and the outer preform 50 by blow molding to manufacture the desired dual cosmetic container in which an inner container 100 or 100a and an outer container 200 are in close contact with each other.

Provided are lip-based compositions such as lipsticks, lip balms, and lip glosses that have favorable transparency, haze, temperature stability, hardness, taste, payoff, moisturizing effect, feel, and/or resistance to droop and/or shear. In certain embodiments, the lip-based compositions are for use with a container that exposes a substantial percentage of the surface area of the lip-based composition. Also provided are processes for production of such lip-based compositions.
