Abstract: A container for nail polish shaped to simulate ice cream in a cone that has been dropped upside down on the ground. The container includes a cap, an applicator, and a bottle. The cap is conical and has an outer surface with a pattern of projections thereon to aid in simulating an ice cream cones The applicator is coupled to the cap and preferably is a brush. The bottle is generally spherical in shape and simulates a scoop of ice cream. When the cap is on the bottle, the applicator is within the bottle and contacts a substance, such as nail polish, within the bottle. When the container is in a resting position, the bottle simulating the scoop of ice cream is below the cap simulating the cone, and the ice cream may appear to be melting.
