Abstract: The compact, including the removable godet, contained within the plastic base is disclosed herein. The base is integrally formed as a single unit and also includes a tab and the rib is spaced from but in close proximity to one another. The tab is movable between a biased position for engaging and retaining the godet within the receiving area defined by the base and a second forced position, for allowing the godet to be removed therefrom. The rib prevents the tab from moving beyond its second position away from its biased first position, whereby to prevent a user from inadvertently breaking it.
