A compact mirror floss container configured to dispense floss includes: (i) a first clam shell member having a mirrored interior surface and (ii) a second clam shell member pivotally coupled to the first clam shell member. The second clam shell member includes a receiving mechanism. A floss cartridge is coupled about the receiving mechanism and configured to dispense floss. An attachment member is coupled to one of the first clam shell member and second clam shell member, configured to selectably couple to a receiving member. The container also includes a securing mechanism coupled to one of the first clam shell member and second clam shell member, configured to selectably couple the first clam shell member to the second clam shell member. The container also includes a cutting member configured to cut floss; and a decorative cover. The decorative cover is selectably coupleable to the clam shell members.
