Abstract

An applicator and closure cap assembly includes a container adapted to carry a fluid therein and which is formed with a neck portion. A porous applicator tip is secured to the container. An orifice provides a fluid pathway from a fluid holding portion of the container to the applicator tip. A closure cap is slidably disposed in non-locking interfacial engagement with the container's neck so as to cover the applicator tip. A removable seal is provided to secure the closure cap to the neck and to seal the cap-container interface prior to use.
