Abstract: A disposable cosmetics sampler package including a container and a fitment. The fitment includes an applicator held by a handle. The handle is sealed breakably to the fitment. Manipulating the handle breaks the seal and allows the applicator to be used to withdraw a product sample from the container. As the applicator is withdrawn, a metering device inside the fitment scrapes excess material off of the applicator. The handle can accept various types of applicators including mascara brushes, lip gloss paddles, and lip coloring brushes. Similarly, metering devices are interchangeable during manufacture to accommodate the type of applicator selected to dispense the product to be sampled.
Abstract: A flexible, sample-containing, multi-compartment packet has printed material attached for distribution through the mail. At least two compartments of the packet are separated by a sealed zone and form a spine when said packet is folded. Folded, printed material is attached to the spine of the packet. After the printed material is attached to the packet, it is distributed through the mail. The packet is tough and made of rugged material so that it will not rupture or burst when mailed.
