ABSTRACT:
A wiper plug for use in a dispenser for liquid cosmetic products removes excess liquid on the rod and head of a cosmetic applicator when the applicator is withdrawn from the bottle. The wiper plug has a body with an axial opening, and a resilient wiper section that defines an extension of the axial opening, preferably of decreasing diameter, and terminates in a lower wiper edge. The wiper section has one or more cuts or slots therein extending axially from the wiper edge, such that the wiper edge defines a radially enlargeable wiper opening that is resiliently held against the rod and head of the applicator to remove excess liquid on the rod and head when the applicator is withdrawn axially through the opening. In one form, the cut or slot is helical, such that the action of withdrawing the applicator causes the wiper edge to be drawn in and around the rod and head. The wiper section may also be in the form of plural, closely spaced sections, defined by plural, axially cuts or slots extending from the lower edge opening toward the plug body.
