The present invention is a holder cup for a stick-type product that prevents the release of the stick-type product from the holder cup. The holder cup comprises a hollow housing which is closed at one end and configured to receive a stick-type product at the other end, said hollow housing having an inner wall and an outer wall, the inner wall containing one or more longitudinal grooves, each longitudinal groove having a first end which is tapered towards the center of the holder cup and a second end which passes through the closed end of the housing to form an aperture. A push-up is then provided, which comprises a base and one or more rods projecting axially outwardly from the base, said rods being positioned to align and dimensioned to fit within the longitudinal groove, and said rods having a length greater than that of the longitudinal groove.
