Abstract

A packaging and applicator device may include a receptacle for containing a composition to be applied and an applicator including an applicator element that is configured to be inserted into the receptacle for taking the composition. The receptacle may include a body and a movable system that is movable inside the body. The movable system may include a wiper member that includes only one opening through which the applicator element passes while the applicator element is being inserted into the receptacle, the movable system being configured so as to move in a generally unidirectional manner toward a bottom of the receptacle under an effect of a force exerted by the applicator while the applicator is being inserted into the receptacle.
