Abstract

A compact case has a lid which forms a joint with an associated base when the lid is in its closed position relative to the base. A magnetic sealing mechanism positively seals substantially the entire length of the joint. The magnetic sealing mechanism can also function to releasably and moveably secure cosmetic product containers and cosmetic implements and accessories to the compact case.
