Abstract
A package of personal care commodities comprised of a plurality of separate containers each charged with a supply of a care commodity and sectionally configured individually as a triangular truncated wedge. The individual containers are capable of being arranged and detachably retained together in a nested relation when assembled to collectively form either a compact enclosing package unit of square cross-section or a relatively flat section that can be conveniently stored or hand carried for travel.
