Abstract

The invention relates to a packaging comprising: a rigid shell that can be deformed by having a user apply pressure, said shell forming a storage space (1) containing a liquid or pasty substance; a breakage area (6) for releasing an applicator (3) for ejecting the liquid or pasty substance from said packaging; and a gripping area (5) including an escape path (7) for said liquid or pasty substance, the escape path being naturally closed when the user applies no pressure such that the liquid or pasty substance is prevented from being discharged after opening the packaging.
