a carton configured to contain a deodorant bar, the carton comprising:
a tray configured to hold the deodorant bar, the tray having at least one locking tab; and
a sleeve having an inner wall having indentations, in which the tray and the sleeve are shaped and sized to enable the tray to move within the sleeve;
