ABSTRACT:
A cosmetic sampler comprising an elongated base formed from a sheet with a top portion and a bottom portion. The top portion has an applicator portion and a discard portion separable from the applicator portion. The discard portion has a first hinge therethrough at a midpoint thereof and perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the base and a second hinge therethrough where the top portion connects to the bottom portion. There is a cosmetic product disposed on a part of the applicator portion and a transparent protective layer disposed over the top portion of the base. An adhesive attaches the protective layer to the base, covering the discard layer above the first hinge and only partially covering the discard layer between the first hinge and the second hinge, so that the protective layer is easily lifted off of the base below the first hinge. In use, the protective layer is lifted off of the base, causing the discard portion to separate from the applicator portion and bend at the hinges to reveal the cosmetic product for application. The discard portion can then be torn off of the sampler, taking the protective layer with it and leaving a stiff, elongated applicator with the cosmetic disposed thereon.
