ABSTRACT:
A lipstick case includes an inner tubular member having an intermediate portion formed with two opposite Z-shaped slots. The inner tubular member has an upper end having a spherical portion on which are formed a pair of grooves. Each groove first extends slantwise from an upper edge to a lower edge and then extends horizontally along the surface of the lower edge. A pair of curved covers have a shape of a quarter of a sphere and a projection fitted in a respective one of the grooves. An intermediate tubular member is formed with a spiral groove and a flange close to a lower end of the intermediate tubular member. A tubular seat has an open top through which a lipstick is fitted therein, the tubular seat having a protuberance extending through the Z-shaped slot into the spiral groove. A rotatable base is rotatably fitted in a lower end of the intermediate tubular member and has a plurality of projections engaged with the holes of the inner tubular member. An outer tubular member is snugly fitted over the intermediate tubular member, whereby the lipstick case does not need a separate cap to close when not in use.
