Abstract: A system for holding a stick in a casing includes an inner cup provided with a plurality of at least partially flexible claws that can assume two positions:—an open position, in which the claws allow the stick to be inserted into the inner cup;—a blocked position in which the claws can penetrate into the stick previously inserted into the inner cup in order to block it; the system further including an outer cup of which the dimensions are designed to allow the claws to shift from the open position to the closed position, and elements for locking the inner cup in the outer cup when the claws are in the blocked position.

Abstract: A case (1) for a stick (2) of material to be applied by friction rubbing, in particular a lipstick, including:—a cup (3), a mechanism (9) for displacing the cup including: a hollow cylindrical internal body (10); a hollow cylindrical external body (11), in which the internal body (10) is fitted so as to pivot with respect to the external body (11) around the main axis (X); elements for blocking translational movement between the internal body (10) and the external body (11); a casing (30), at least partially covering the displacement mechanism (9); elements for rotating the external body (11) with respect to the internal body (10); and a lid (46), hinged on the casing (30), independent of the displacement mechanism (9) of the cup (3).

Abstract: A container includes a top component, a base component and a magnet, wherein the magnet is attached to one of the components and the other component is at least partially including a plastic material intermixed with a passive magnetic material such that the magnet exerts a closing force on the other component to retain the top and base in a closed configuration.
