Abstract

A wiper for use in a cosmetics bottle fabricated from a semi-rigid plastic such as low density polyethylene. The wipe has a sleeve with an integral wiper diaphragm defining an orifice having a wiper edge. The wiper diaphragm is connected to the sleeve by a plurality of spaced-apart ribs which act to hold any pieces of the diaphragm which may break off in use, and prevent them from falling into the cosmetics bottle and any product contained in the bottle.
