English term or phrase: pump

Bonjour,

Connaissez-vous un terme spécifique pour rendre la traduction de "pump" dans la phrase suivante ? Le terme "noisette" s'applique à mon sens à une crème et non à une lotion comme c'est ici le cas.

Contexte :
"apply 2-3 pumps to a cotton pad"

Merci d'avance !
