Abstract

A sectional liquid dispensing container for lotions, creams, cleansers, etc. that includes a finger actuated pump assembly and an extending dip tube. The container has three individual sections; the upper section of container contains a tamper evident closure member at its lower most edge. The lower section (base) contains a closure member incorporated onto its top edge and designed to snap fit into upper section. A lid cover snaps onto the bottom surface of the lower section using a tamper evident closure member design. The usage of perimeter closure members provide for easy removal of locking tear-off bands that allows for separation of each section and provides access to remaining container contents. The container provides for dual dispensing (two individual products) from one container when the upper section has been modified into a separate enclosure. Two finger actuated pump assemblies may be used for dispensing various compatible products.
