(36) In this case, the impregnation member 50 is formed in the lower end thereof with the cosmetic material storage grooves 51 to store a larger number of cosmetic materials.

(37) Thereafter, the receiving container bonding part 41 formed in the impregnation member receiving container 40 is bonded to the discharge plate bonding part 61 formed in the discharge plate 60 through a thermal bonding, ultrasonic bonding, or high frequency bonding scheme to form the bonding part 70, thereby preventing the cosmetic material from leaked.

(38) Thereafter, the fixing member 80 is coupled to an upper end of the container body 10 to prevent the integrated container 30 from deviating from the container body 10.

(39) In order to use the cosmetic container having the cosmetic material storage groove formed in the impregnation member assembled in the above manner, after opening the container cover 20, the discharge plate 60 is pressed as shown in FIG. 6.

(40) If the discharge plate 60 is pressed, the elastic member 55 is compressed while the impregnation member receiving container 40 formed of the flexible material is distorted to press the impregnation member 50 provided in the impregnation member receiving container 40.

(41) In this case, the cosmetic material impregnated in the impregnation member 50 is discharged through the discharge hole 62 in the discharge plate 60 so that a user may make up by applying the discharged cosmetic material to the puff P.
