A lock for a flexible bottle for containing a fluidic or pasty filler, such as skin cream or the like, includes a locking cap axially displaceable over the neck portion of the bottle and carrying a lip valve, and a sealing member mounted in the through passage of the neck portion. The lip valve has a lip-supporting ring-shaped portion extending into the sealing member and having two sealing surfaces cooperating with the sealing member upon the axial displacement of the locking cap with the lip valve relative to the neck portion of the bottle.
