         2 . The case according to  claim 1 , wherein said means for removable attachment consist of an exclusively mechanical link. 
     
     
         3 . The case according to  claim 2 , wherein said means for removable attachment respectively consist of a protrusion cooperating with a complementary hollow in such a way as to together form a link of the clip type. 
     
     
         4 . The case according to  claim 3 , wherein the spacer plate comprises at least one lateral protrusion in the form of a hook protruding from each of its listed, while the base comprises corresponding hollow housings respectively arranged in two lateral borders facing each other. 
     
     
         5 . The case according to  claim 4 , wherein each side of the spacer plate comprises a pair of hooks cooperating with two hollow housings arranged in the respective lateral borders of the base. 
     
     
         6 . The case according to  claim 1 , wherein said means for removable attachment consist of elements having magnetic properties. 
     
     
         7 . The case according to  claim 6 , wherein said means for removable attachment are respectively magnets and metal parts. 
     
     
         8 . The case according to  claim 6 , wherein said means for removable attachment only consist of magnets. 
     
     
         9 . The case according to  claim 1 , wherein the elements having magnetic properties are disposed respectively in the immediate vicinity or on a front edge of the spacer plate and of the base. 
     
     
         10 . The case according to  claim 9 , wherein the elements having magnetic properties consist respectively of:
 a magnetized bar housed in the base, and   a magnetized strip inserted into a housing of the front edge of the spacer plate and separated from the bar by a distance.   
     
     
         11 . The case according to al  claim 9 , wherein the spacer plate comprises, at its rear edge and near its sides, two protrusions cooperating with lateral housings arranged in the base. 
     
     
         12 . The case according to  claim 6 , wherein the elements having magnetic properties are disposed respectively at the lister of the spacer plate and at the lateral borders of the base. 
     
     
         13 . The case according to  claim 12 , wherein the elements having magnetic properties consist of two first pairs of magnets disposed respectively under lateral rims of the spacer plate on the one hand, and two second pairs of magnets protruding from the bottom of the base on the other hand. 
     
     
         14 . The case according to  claim 1 , wherein the spacer plate comprises a plurality of housings in order to house a plurality of discs of cosmetic product. 
     
     
         15 . The case according to  claim 14 , wherein each disc is inserted into its respective housing by sliding between two parallel lower rails arranged under the spacer plate. 
     
     
         16 . The case according to  claim 14 , wherein each disc is sandwiched between two upper and lower portions forming the spacer plate. 
     
     
         17 . The case according to  claim 16 , wherein the two portions of the spacer plate are articulated with each other.
