Custom Cosmetic Boxes

Packlogic makes custom cosmetic boxes for skincare, makeup and haircare brands. Every item in this range is produced to the size you specify and printed with your own artwork, so the packaging fits your cosmetic products properly and looks like part of your brand.

Beauty cartons carry a lot of required text in a small space: ingredient lists, net contents, directions, warnings and a batch or expiry area. Plan a panel for this before the artwork starts so it does not get squeezed into 4pt type later. If the product is fragile glass, a paperboard insert or a snug fit matters more than heavier board.

Beauty shoppers read a carton in a second or two. Soft neutrals, blush tones and deep blacks with a single metallic detail are common for skincare and fragrance, while color cosmetics often show the shade on the outside so the customer does not have to open the box.

Materials we use for custom cosmetic boxes

  • SBS cardstock (14pt to 24pt). A bright white board with a smooth coated surface. It holds fine type, skin tones and small ingredient text cleanly, which is why most beauty cartons use it.
  • Natural kraft board. Unbleached brown board with visible fibre. It suits clean-beauty and organic lines and prints well in one or two dark ink colors.
  • Rigid chipboard (2mm to 3mm). Thick greyboard wrapped in printed paper. Used for gift sets, PR kits and premium launches where the box is kept after opening.
  • Corrugated E-flute. A thin fluted board for subscription kits and direct-to-customer shipments that need crush protection without a second outer carton.

Typical sizes

Most cosmetic containers are round, so the box footprint is set by the diameter of the bottle or jar plus a small clearance, and the height by the container with its cap, pump or dropper fitted. Measure the tallest and widest points, not the label area.
