Abstract
A cosmetics container has a bottle, a neck insert defining an entry opening and a wiper diaphragm mounted at the lower end of the entry opening. A cap has an applicator rod and applicator extending therefrom, for insertion into the bottle and withdrawal from the bottle with cosmetics. The wiper diaphragm defines a wiper orifice, and has a conical descending upper surface and a concave lower surface converging with the upper surface to create a thin edge peripherally surrounding the wiper orifice. The wiper diaphragm is fabricated of semi-rigid plastic which stretches and flexes to accommodate and seal to the applicator rod and which is rigid with respect to the applicator for wiping it. The concave lower surface conducts wiped cosmetics away from the orifice. The bottle includes a plastic liner. A modified wiper includes a radially segmented spill cover deployed across the wiper orifice, to prevent cosmetics from running from the bottle if it is tipped over while the cap is off.
