ABSTRACT:
A towelette product is provided usable for cleansing/make-up removal which includes a stack of folded flexible towelettes impregnated with a fluid composition, a pouch for storing the stack of towelettes and an outer container surrounding the pouch and having walls more rigid than the flexible sheet forming the pouch. A dispensing aperture is formed in a deck panel of the pouch. A seal is adhesively arranged over the dispensing aperture to minimize fluid evaporation and control foreign objects from contaminating the towelettes. The outer container is defined by top, bottom, front, rear and side walls, the top wall having an opening with left and right flanking panels, the opening of the container and dispensing aperture of the pouch being aligned to allow towelette removal. A lid is hingedly attached to the outer container which in a closed position overlies the opening and at least a portion of the flanking panels. In a second embodiment of the seal for the pouch, a support saddle is provided to overlay and adhere to the deck panel and both side panels. A cut-out portion is hingedly attached near a rear portion of the support saddle. The cut-out portion is adhesively reclosable and aligned over the dispensing aperture. The support saddle provides rigidity to the respective panels of the pouch against which it adheres. Collapse in the face of a decreasing stack of form-retaining towelettes is prevented by the support saddle structure.
