A device for selectively immobilizing a container, such as a container containing a cosmetic product, on a surface may include a sleeve having a free edge defining an opening for mounting the device on the container. One end of the device remote from the free edge may form a perforated bottom, a peripheral edge of which may form a lip configured to be pressed in sealed manner onto the surface. In collaboration with a portion of the container, the device may form a suction cavity to thereby selectively immobilize the container on the surface. The perforated bottom may optionally define at least one opening, where the at least one opening may extend away from the geometric center of the bottom.
