  • Patent number: 12660906
    Abstract: A cosmetic case for holding at least one sachet. The case includes a base with front and rear portions, and exterior surface walls extending from a bottom member to form an interior hollow section. A lid is connected to the base by a hinge. A bottom insert is positioned within the hollow section and secured to the bottom member. A removable body insert, secured within the base, has a lower and slanted upper section connected by side sections, with multiple channels for removable cosmetic sachets. An inner cap, secured within the lid, includes a well and a closure mechanism to maintain the lid closed or allow it to open. A defined gap in the front of the case facilitates opening the lid.
