Packaging for cosmetics and beauty brands.

Beauty packaging is small and read close up, which changes what matters. A customer picks the product up, turns it over, and looks at it from a foot away — so finish and print matter more than the format.

The usual mix is a rigid box for a set or a hero product, a folding carton for a single item, a flexible pouch for refills and samples, and a paper bag for the counter.

• Small formats — boxes are often under 100mm, so print detail and fold accuracy show.
• Finish — soft-touch, foil and embossing are common, because the box is handled.
• Inserts — a serum bottle or a compact needs a die-cut insert so it does not move.
• Refills and samples — sachets and pouches for travel sizes and sampling.

Send the bottle or jar dimensions, or the product itself, and the quantity. The box is built to the container, so the container is the starting point — not the box.

Tell us the finish you want and whether the product needs an insert. A serum bottle or a compact needs a die-cut insert to hold it still, and the insert changes the depth of the box. Quotes come back in 24–48 hours at the 500-unit minimum.
