Abstract

A cosmetic product is provided that stores a cosmetic composition in a capsule having a spheroidal body with hollow chamber forming a major portion of the capsule, a tab forming a minor portion of the capsule, and a neck section connecting the tab with the spheroidal body. At least two wings are positioned along opposite sides of the spheroidal body perpendicularly extending outward therefrom. Upon twisting, the neck can be broken to allow release of cosmetic composition from within the chamber.
