Abstract

A container to heat and dispense material comprises a container which defines a first compartment adapted, in use, to be filled with the material requiring heating, such as epilatory wax, and a second compartment adjacent to the first compartment and separate therefrom by a dividing wall. The container has an inlet to the second compartment in the outer wall thereof which is closeable by a plug or stopper. In use, the second compartment is filled with a heated liquid, such as warm water, to heat the material in the first compartment, so that it can be applied to a site through an applicator.
