ABSTRACT:
A dispensing package for cosmetic cream products which automatically and progressively indicates when the product has nearly been depleted by the user. The package includes a deformable fin cantilevered from the piston which contacts the underside of the wall on which applicating surface is formed and is thereby bent in the direction of an orifice in the applicating surface. Further advance of the piston causes the fin to progressively cross the orifice, becoming visible from the exterior. As the piston is further advanced towards the applicating surface, continued deformation of the fin causes it to advance fully across the orifice, thereby indicating to the user that the cream product is nearly depleted. The invention is well suited to dispensing packages which contain and dispense cream deodorants and antiperspirants.
