Dual dispensing cosmetic container
Cosmetic containers configured to hold and dispense a cosmetic product. The container may store and dispense cosmetic products from two different cavities, or it may be configured to dispense a cosmetic product from a single cavity in two different manners. A first dispensing outlet can be used by adjusting the container to a first configuration and tilting the container. A second dispending outlet is used by actuation of a pump.
1. A cosmetic container, comprising:
an outer bottle defining a first cavity configured to receive a first cosmetic product;
an inner bottle disposed within the first cavity of the outer bottle and defining a second cavity configured to receive a second cosmetic product;
an outer neck coupled to a first end region of the outer bottle;
an inner neck coupled to a first end region of the inner bottle;
a rotatable dial defining a first dispensing outlet rotatably coupled to the outer neck;
a pump actuator defining a second dispensing outlet and slidably disposed within a cap, the cap coupled to the rotatable dial; and
a pump mechanism fluidly coupled to the second dispensing outlet and the second cavity;
wherein the rotatable dial is movable between a first dispensing configuration and a second storage configuration to selectively fluidly couple the first cavity and the first dispensing outlet.
2. The cosmetic container of claim 1 , wherein actuation of the pump mechanism dispenses the second cosmetic product through the second dispensing outlet.
3. The cosmetic container claim 1 , wherein when the rotatable dial is in the first dispensing configuration, the first cosmetic product is pourable from the first dispensing outlet.
4. The cosmetic container claim 1 , further comprising a flexible gasket disposed within an annular cavity of the rotatable dial.
5. The cosmetic container of claim 4 , wherein the flexible gasket includes a first channel configured to fluidly couple the first cavity with the first dispensing outlet.
6. The cosmetic container of claim 5 , wherein the flexible gasket includes a second channel configured to fluidly couple the first cavity with a vent opening.
7. The cosmetic container of claim 4 , wherein when the rotatable dial is in the second storage configuration, the gasket is configured to fluidly isolate the first dispensing outlet from the first cavity.
8. The cosmetic container of claim 1 , wherein the second dispensing outlet comprises a cylindrical nozzle.
9. The cosmetic container of claim 8 , wherein the cylindrical nozzle is axially slidable within a slot extending through a wall of the cap.
10. The cosmetic container of claim 1 , wherein the rotatable dial further comprises a radially inward extending protrusion, the radially inward extending protrusion configured to engage a slot in the outer neck.
11. The cosmetic container of claim 10 , wherein the radially inwardly extending protrusion and the slot are configured to limit a rotational range of motion of the rotatable dial.
12. The cosmetic container of claim 11 , wherein the rotational range of motion is in a range of about 45° to about 55°.
13. The cosmetic container of claim 1 , wherein the pump mechanism is actuatable when the rotatable dial is in the first dispensing configuration and when the rotatable dial is in the second storage configuration.
14. A cosmetic container, comprising:
an outer bottle defining a first cavity configured to receive a first cosmetic product;
an inner bottle disposed within the first cavity of the outer bottle and defining a second cavity configured to receive a second cosmetic product;
an outer neck coupled to a first end region of the outer bottle;
a rotatable dial defining a first dispensing outlet rotatably coupled to the outer neck;
a vent opening defined in the rotatable dial;
a pump actuator defining a second dispensing outlet and slidably disposed within a cap, the cap coupled to the rotatable dial; and
a pump mechanism fluidly coupled to the second dispensing outlet and the second cavity;
wherein the rotatable dial is movable between a first dispensing configuration and a second storage configuration to selectively fluidly couple the first cavity and the first dispensing outlet.
15. The cosmetic container of claim 14 , wherein when the rotatable dial is in the first dispensing configuration, the vent opening is in fluid communication with the first cavity.
16. The cosmetic container of claim 14 , wherein the second dispensing outlet is axially slidable within a slot extending through a wall of the cap.
17. The cosmetic container of claim 14 , further comprising a flexible gasket disposed within an annular cavity of the rotatable dial.
18. The cosmetic container of claim 17 , wherein the flexible gasket includes a first channel configured to fluidly couple the first cavity with the first dispensing outlet and a second channel configured to fluidly couple the first cavity with the vent opening.
19. The cosmetic container of claim 17 , wherein when the rotatable dial is in the second storage configuration, the flexible gasket is configured to fluidly isolate the first dispensing outlet from the first cavity.
20. A cosmetic container, comprising:
a bottle defining a cavity configured to receive a cosmetic product;
an outer neck coupled to a first end region of the bottle;
a rotatable dial defining a first dispensing outlet rotatably coupled to the outer neck;
a vent opening defined in the rotatable dial;
a pump actuator defining a second dispensing outlet and slidably disposed within a cap, the cap coupled to the rotatable dial; and
a pump mechanism fluidly coupled to the second dispensing outlet and the cavity;
wherein the rotatable dial is movable between a first dispensing configuration and a second storage configuration to selectively fluidly couple the cavity and the first dispensing outlet; and
wherein the pump mechanism is actuatable when the rotatable dial is in the first dispensing configuration and when the rotatable dial is in the second storage configuration.
