A dispenser, comprising: a hollow body having a first end and an opposed base end, a portion of the hollow body providing a surface defining a reservoir; a transfer assembly a section of which is coupled to a support section of the hollow body and arranged to deliver a stored liquid from the reservoir to an applicator, the transfer assembly having an adapter in contact with the hollow body at the first end, the adapter having a central member with a seal surface and forming orifices to fluidly couple an inlet to an outlet, an applicator base supported by and extending beyond the adapter, the applicator base forming a cavity therein, a piston having a head portion arranged within the cavity of the applicator base; and a bias member arranged within the cavity of the applicator base and contacting the head portion of the piston and a assembly coupled to the hollow body, characterized in that when a fluidic pressure applied in the reservoir by operation of the pump assembly exceeds a bias force induced by the bias member, the piston is displaced toward the applicator such that the head portion of the piston no longer contacts a seal surface of the central member and liquid enters a piston cavity and wherein when the fluidic pressure decreases below the bias force and liquid is present in the piston cavity, the head portion of the piston contacts the seal surface of the central member sealing the reservoir from the liquid present in the piston cavity. a hollow body having a first end and an opposed base end, a portion of the hollow body providing a surface defining a reservoir; a transfer assembly a section of which is coupled to a support section of the hollow body and arranged to deliver a stored liquid from the reservoir to an applicator, the transfer assembly having an adapter in contact with the hollow body at the first end, the adapter having a central member with a seal surface and forming orifices to fluidly couple an inlet to an outlet, an applicator base supported by and extending beyond the adapter, the applicator base forming a cavity therein, a piston having a head portion arranged within the cavity of the applicator base; and a bias member arranged within the cavity of the applicator base and contacting the head portion of the piston and a assembly coupled to the hollow body, characterized in that an adapter in contact with the hollow body at the first end, the adapter having a central member with a seal surface and forming orifices to fluidly couple an inlet to an outlet, an applicator base supported by and extending beyond the adapter, the applicator base forming a cavity therein, a piston having a head portion arranged within the cavity of the applicator base; and a bias member arranged within the cavity of the applicator base and contacting the head portion of the piston and a assembly coupled to the hollow body, characterized in that when a fluidic pressure applied in the reservoir by operation of the pump assembly exceeds a bias force induced by the bias member, the piston is displaced toward the applicator such that the head portion of the piston no longer contacts a seal surface of the central member and liquid enters a piston cavity and wherein when the fluidic pressure decreases below the bias force and liquid is present in the piston cavity, the head portion of the piston contacts the seal surface of the central member sealing the reservoir from the liquid present in the piston cavity.
