Abstract

A cosmetic jar and storage device comprises a substantially cylindrical body having a first recess for holding cosmetic and a second recess for holding an applicator. The recesses are separated by a transverse member into individual compartments. A pin-hinged base maintains the applicator in the lower compartment. The base may be swung completely open to facilitate viewing with an internally mounted mirror. The base and in alternate embodiments the cap are hinged on one side of the device while a recessed portion on the other side facilitates opening of the force fit base and cap.
