a container part configured to accommodate a content;
a discharge part disposed at an upper end of the container part and having therein a lower discharge hole through which the content is discharged;
an application part made of an elastic material, disposed at an upper end of the discharge part, and having therein an upper discharge hole communicating with the lower discharge hole,
wherein the application part is configured to apply the content discharged through the upper discharge hole onto a skin of a user; and
a support portion, the support portion protruding toward the application part and disposed at the upper end of the discharge part made of hard material,
wherein the support portion is retracted into a lower inner side of the application part so that an inner surface and an outer surface of the support portion are in close contact with the application part,
wherein the application part has a tapered cross-section upward, thereby defining an inclined upper application surface on long sides of outer surfaces thereof,
wherein the application part includes an inner wall protruding to be in contact with the inner surface of the support portion and an outer wall protruding to be in contact with the outer surface of the support portion, and
wherein the support portion is inserted into a groove disposed between the inner wall and the outer wall so that the support portion is configured to support the application part to prevent separation and allow for the application part to be bent laterally when the content is applied by the inclined upper application surface.
