A liquid dispensing applicator may include a liquid source for housing a liquid, the liquid source having a first end and a second end, the second end being closed； a swab member for dispensing said liquid, the swab member being disposed at the first end； and at least one capillary member being in fluid communication with the liquid source, the capillary tube directing fluid out from the liquid source onto an exterior of the swab member upon application of pressure to the liquid source. A liquid dispensing applicator may also include an applicator tip fluidically connected to the liquid source including a frangible juncture and a tongue member coupled to the frangible junction, application of force to the tongue member causing the frangible junction to fracture while remaining attached to the tongue member, resulting in at least one aperture to form through which liquid from the liquid source is dischargeable.
