Claim Text:
1. A casing for a cosmetic article, the casing comprising: a base having an inner surface which accommodates a mirror; a lid rotatably and directly mounted to the base, the lid being rotatable, relative to the base, between a closed position and an opened position; the mirror in fixed relation to the base when opening and closing the casing; and an intermediate tray located between the base and the lid for accommodating a cosmetic article, the intermediate tray being slidably mounted to the base so as to be movable relative to the base between a retracted position, in which the intermediate tray substantially covers the inner surface of the base and an extended position, in which the intermediate tray exposes the mirror, the intermediate tray being further mounted to the lid so that the intermediate tray is movable relative to the lid and, when the lid rotated from the closed position to the opened position, the intermediate tray automatically slides from the retracted position to the extended position so as to expose the mirror; wherein the base comprises a first guide channel and the intermediate tray comprises a first guide pin that can slide along the first guide channel of the base as the intermediate tray slides between the retracted and extended positions and the first guide channel allows simultaneous rotation and translation of the first guide pin within the first guide channel; wherein the intermediate tray is slidably mounted to the lid so as to be slidably movable, relative to the lid, when the lid is rotated from the closed position to the opened position and the lid comprises a second guide channel and the intermediate tray comprises a second guide pin that can slide along the second guide channel of the lid as the lid is rotated from the closed position to the open position.
