1. A multi-phase cosmetic composition container, comprising:
a mechanical blender including a plurality of mixing elements disposed about an applicator received within a container reservoir that is at least partially filled with a multi-phase cosmetic composition;
a torque component operably coupled to the mechanical blender, the torque component including a rotational end cap assembly that affixes to the multi-phase cosmetic composition container and engages the mechanical blender so as to rotate or oscillate the plurality of mixing elements responsive to an applied a rotational force; and
wherein the torque component comprises a planetary gear assembly.
