the method of forming applicator packages comprises the steps of feeding a continuous web of material , such as one comprising an aluminum foil having an inner coating of a thermoplastic material ; forming successively a plurality of recesses along the web of material ; depositing a fabric applicator pad into each said recess ; securing said fabric applicator to the inside portion of said recess by means such as heat sealing said pad to the thermoplastic lining of said aluminum foil ; dispensing a predetermined quantity of product to be applied by said fabric applicator , to said applicator ; feeding another continuous web of material from a supply roll so as to be continuously aligned in a coextensive manner with said first web of material , said other web of material comprising , for example , an aluminum foil having an inner coating of a thermoplastic material ; sealing the peripheral marginal edges of each applicator package so as to form a thermoplastic hermetic closure about all sides of said recess leaving at least one corner portion of said webs of material unsecured together ; and cutting off each said applicator package from said webs of material .
