Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A refilling system for reducing messiness during use comprising: 
 A. a container comprising a hollow bottle, a pouring spout and a cap which covers the pouring spout, the pouring spout having an interior surface; and    B. a refilling container comprising a hollow body, a refilling spout and a composition therein, the refilling spout having an exterior surface,    wherein the interior surface and the exterior surface are coordinated such that the exterior surface may fit within the interior surface during use.    
   
   
       2 . The refilling system of  claim 1 , wherein when the exterior surface is fit within the interior surface, the refilling container stably rests upon the pouring spout.  
   
   
       3 . The refilling system of  claim 1 , wherein the container further comprises a securing mechanism.  
   
   
       4 . The refilling system of  claim 1 , wherein the refilling spout further comprises a tube therein.  
   
   
       5 . The refilling system of  claim 1 , wherein the refilling container comprises a material selected from the group consisting of a film, a laminate, a plastic, a polymer, a resin, paper, a metal, and a mixture thereof  
   
   
       6 . The refilling system of  claim 1 , wherein the refilling container is selected from the group consisting of a pouch, a bag, a pocket, a box, a bottle and a combination thereof.  
   
   
       7 . The refilling system of  claim 1 , wherein, when ready to use for refilling, the refilling spout is cut at an acute angle.  
   
   
       8 . The refilling system of  claim 1 , wherein the refilling spout comprises a hand-tear line.  
   
   
       9 . The refilling system of  claim 1 , further comprising an instruction set comprising a recommendation to insert the exterior surface into the interior surface during the refilling process.  
   
   
       10 . A refilling system for reducing messiness during use comprising: 
 A. a container comprising a hollow bottle, a pouring spout and a cap which covers the pouring spout, the pouring spout having an interior surface; and    B. a refilling container comprising a hollow body, a refilling spout comprising a tube and a composition therein, the refilling spout having an exterior surface and a hand-tear portion,    wherein the refilling container is a pouch, wherein, when ready to use for refilling, the refilling spout is cut at an acute angle, wherein the interior surface and the exterior surface are coordinated such that the exterior surface may fit within the interior surface during use, and wherein when the exterior surface is fit within the interior surface, the refilling container stably rests upon the pouring spout.
