Abstract
A cartridge includes a cartridge body and a holder for holding a stick cosmetic and movable forward/backward in accordance with a screw movement. A container body includes an outer cylinder for rotatably holding the cartridge body, a clicking rod movable forward/backward, a rotor rotated by a cam mechanism while moving forward together with the clicking rod when a clicking operation is performed, and a rotation rod for transmitting the rotational force of the rotor to the holder. The holder and the rotor engage with the rotation rod in the rotating direction and are slidable forward/backward. When a clicking operation is performed, the holder rotates to move forward in accordance with the screw movement. When a clicking operation is not performed, the cartridge body is rotated to move the holder forward/backward.
