The present disclosure could generally provide a reusable and universal case for personal items such as, for example, removable lipstick refills. Manufacturers could provide relatively cost-effective lipstick refills suitable for use with a more elegantly packaged and fully functional universal case. The case could include an elongated tube to house a lipstick refill. The case could also include a notch disposed on an interior surface of an elongated tube to receive a groove disposed on an exterior surface of an insert disposed within a second end of the tube. The case could further include a protrusion on an interior surface of the insert that is disposed along a surface of the lipstick refill.

A refillable assembly for dispensing cosmetic product, including a base and a cartridge selectively connectable with the base. The base includes a cartridge receiving element and a cartridge locking element. The locking element is movable relative to the receiving element at least in rotation about the longitudinal axis in a first direction towards an open position and in a second direction towards a closed position. In the open position, the cartridge is movable relative to the base along the longitudinal axis; in the closed position when the cartridge is inserted into the base the cartridge is integral with the base along the longitudinal axis.

A multiple cosmetic holder and applicator includes a plurality of cosmetic cartridges that receive standard cosmetics therein. The cartridges include an upper magnet disposed within the opening, and a lower annular groove on the cylindrical body. A main body holds the plurality of cosmetic cartridges and includes a base with depressions which include a lower magnet therein and which receive the cosmetic cartridges, locking mechanisms which interface with the annular groove of the cartridges to lock the cartridges within the depressions, and an outer case movable relative to the main body which has a pressable button that unlocks the locking mechanism from the cartridge. A removable cap covers the main body, the cartridges, and the standard cosmetics. A selector tube extends through an aperture in the cap to remove the cartridge when the button is pressed and the locking mechanism is unlocked.

A lipstick container includes a cap including a plurality of cavities on an inner surface; a lipstick tube including a locking hole in a bottom, two opposite recesses on the locking hole, and a projection on an inner surface of the locking hole and distal the recesses; a carriage put on an outer surface of the lipstick tube adjacent to the locking hole and including a plurality of protrusions on an outer surface and complementarily disposed in the cavities respectively, an axial channel, and an annular protuberance on a surface of the axial channel, and a plurality of slits in the annular protuberance; and a seat including a bossed hole extending to dispose in both the axial channel and the locking hole, and two opposite tabs formed on an edge of the bossed hole and passing through the recesses respectively to urge against the projection.

A device for packaging and applying a cosmetic product comprises a mechanism for receiving a stick of cosmetic product, a base cover forming a first housing for receiving a first portion of the mechanism, a first seal between an element of the base cover and an element of the mechanism, and a cap fixed on the base cover in order to define a second housing receiving a second portion of the mechanism. A second seal is provided between the cap and said element of the base cover and/or said element of the mechanism. The first and second housings are connected in a sealed manner by the element of the base cover and/or the element of the mechanism.

A system for sample, trial, and/or full-sized products includes a container defining at least one cavity, a product disk, a cosmetic product, and an applicator. The product disk includes a first side, a second side, and a body extending therebetween. The product disk is positionable adjacent to the at least one cavity of the container. The cosmetic product is at least partially disposed on the first side of the product disk. The applicator has first end that includes an applicator coupling mechanism. The product disk is removably coupled with the cavity of the container and the applicator coupling mechanism.

A glue-free lipstick case that comprises an A-shell and cam sleeve with no glue in between. The cam sleeve is provided with one or more flexible tabs on its outer surface. The flexible tabs bias in a radially outward direction. The A-shell member fits snugly over the cam sleeve and flexible tabs, such that the outward pressure exerted by the tabs on the inner surface of the cam sleeve helps to ensure that the two members move as one.

The invention is a lipstick container assembly that houses a plurality of lipsticks. Specifically, the disclosed assembly includes a housing and a lid. The interior of the container includes a plurality of lipsticks that can be advanced from the container via a slide as desired by the user. Particularly, a desired lipstick color can be selected by the user. The corresponding compartment slide can be moved in an upward direction along a groove to elevate the desired lipstick from an outlet in the lid. The lipstick can then be applied as needed by a user. When the slide is manipulated in a downward direction, the lipstick is reverted into the container interior for storage.

A refillable assembly for dispensing cosmetic product, including a base and a cartridge selectively connectable with the base. The base includes a cartridge receiving element and a cartridge locking element. The locking element is movable relative to the receiving element at least in rotation about the longitudinal axis in a first direction towards an open position and in a second direction towards a closed position. In the open position, the cartridge is movable relative to the base along the longitudinal axis; in the closed position when the cartridge is inserted into the base the cartridge is integral with the base along the longitudinal axis.

A device for extracting lipstick from a lipstick holder and forming a new holder for application of the extracted lipstick. The device includes a housing formed around a sliding barrel movably disposed within a tube. The sliding barrel includes a tab that extends through an aperture of the housing, wherein the tab allows a user to move the sliding barrel between an extended position and a retracted position. The tube has a circumference smaller than a circumference of the lipstick holder, such that an upper end of tube can be circumscribed by the lipstick holder. A remaining portion of lipstick within the lipstick holder is removed by the sliding barrel and received within the housing when the sliding barrel is retracted. A lipstick securing member extends from an upper end of the sliding barrel to assist in the extraction of the lipstick from the lipstick holder.
