Abstract
A package for containing and simultaneously dispensing first and second pressurized, fluent products, the package having a cup-shaped outer housing and first and second containers containing the first and second products, respectively, positioned within the outer housing. Each of the containers has a dispensing end with an actuatable valve at the dispensing end, and the opposed end of each of the containers is frictionally engaged by a fitment that is releasably secured to an open end of the outer housing. The outer housing is formed from a resilient polymeric material, and the closed end of the outer housing has an end member with first and second annular members depending therefrom to engage, respectively, the actuatable valves of the first and second containers. The end member of the outer housing is distortable under hand pressure to simultaneously actuate the actuatable valves of the first and second containers, and is provided with internal passages to cause the first and second pressurized, fluent products to flow to closely spaced dispensing openings.
