Abstract

A box for cosmetic or toiletry products including a body having a bottom and a free edge and containing a cup containing a solid, paste or powder product, and a lid mounted to pivot on the body. The lid is connected to the body by at least one double hinge including an upper link articulated to the body and to the underside of the lid, and a lower link situated between the upper link and the bottom, more inclined than the first link relative to the bottom in the closed configuration of the lid, and articulated to the body and under the lid. In the closed configuration, the cover is retracted into the body and flush with the free edge, having at a distance from the double hinge an actuation area bearing at least indirectly against a bistable pushbutton elastically compressible toward the bottom of the body.
