Abstract
A package for a stick product, such as an antiperspirant stick, comprises a barrel for containing the stick, the barrel having an opening through which the stick can be exposed for use, and a product support member for supporting the end of the stick product opposite the end of the stick which is to be exposed. The support member is movable for adjusting the amount of the stick product which is exposed for use through the barrel opening. An applicator surface is provided about the periphery of the opening of the barrel for application and rubbing in of a visible amount of product. The package, including the applicator surface, allows the consumer to rub the product in while avoiding contacting the underarm with the relatively narrow edge of the barrel. The quantity of product being applied can also be accurately controlled using the package. The surface of the product support member has a configuration, in cross section, like that of the applicator surface adjacent the periphery of the opening, so that the product can be used to the bottom of the stick.
