Cosmetic Packaging FAQs

Cosmetic Packaging Now's items can only be bought through Amazon, Etsy or CPN's Official Website.

Yes, the items are in stock unless the "buy button" has been changed to sold out. You can check the current inventory on each product page under the review star rating.

No, we do not require a minimum order quantity (MOQ). However, ordering in larger volumes helps lower the overall cost of cosmetic packaging. For customers looking for cosmetic packaging with low minimums, the choice is yours. You can buy one single item or any number of items (even mixing bottles and jars) according to your purchase needs.

We offer cosmetic packaging with no minimum order quantity. This allows you to order just one of each of our products if you want. We find this to be ideal for our clients, especially for conducting stability and shelf life testing for your unique formula.

Because we offer cosmetic packaging with no minimum order quantity, you can simply buy a single item to see if it is suitable for your needs. All our cosmetic packaging is the highest commercial grade used by established brands for their products.

Customers searching for cosmetic packaging with low minimums or samples can order any individual cosmetic container on the website for a minimal price.

A variety of factors determines the compatibility of your formulation with any cosmetic packaging/container, which is why we have chosen to offer our products at any quantity. It is up to you to perform appropriate stability, compatibility, and shelf life testing to ensure your formulation is best presented to market. Check out our plastic properties guide to help you determine which packaging is right for your product. Stability & shelf life testing are industry standard tests performed by you (or your lab) to determine the suitability of any container with your formulation.

We post all technical drawings on the "TECH & DECO FILES" tab on each individual product page. You will also find silk screen and label templates located here.

Traditional cosmetic jars and bottles often require that you dip your finger in to dispense product or utilize a dip tube. The airless bottles and jars use a clever vacuum mechanic to dispense the product as you pump. This helps to keep your product preserved by keeping air and contaminants out of your product and allows your clients to get full usage of the product as the airless pump pushes product from the bottom of the container to the top.

Sealing these tubes can be a learning experience. The lip gloss containers come from the factory with the wiper on the wand. We keep them on the wand when shipping for two reasons. First, so they don't get lost in transit, and second, for simple and correct installation. When the wiper is up in the cap you can insert the wand into the tube, apply a bit of pressure, and tightly screw the cap onto the bottle. In doing so you will be threading the wiper into the inside of the tube to ensure it stays in. Once you have it tight and the cap is screwed on, you can unscrew the cap and the wiper should be snugly installed into the bottle. We recommend filling the bottle with your formula prior to installing the wiper.

There are several methods for filling lip gloss tubes. They are intended to be machine filled in a lab, but you can easily fill them at home. There are commercial grade syringes that work well for filling them. We have also seen some small business owners use household tools such as a turkey baster, or pastry icing applicator. These methods are elected in place of the preferred method where tubes are filled in a cosmetic laboratory by machine. It also comes down to what would work best with the viscosity of your unique formula.

We carry a wide variety of cosmetic packaging products while specializing in airless pump design bottles and jars. This wide range of products include: airless pump bottles, acrylic cosmetic jars, cosmetic pump bottles, lotion pump bottles, lip gloss containers, wholesale plastic bottles, and plastic bottle caps.

All measurements/dimensions for each product we offer can be found on the product page itself. Simply scroll down below the pricing chart and see the "Pack Info" tab. Please note that all products we offer are cylindrical, so the width is also the depth and diameter.

We display all products' dispense output info on each individual product page on the "PACK INFO" tab located under the pricing chart and description.

There are many factors that affect cosmetic packaging cost, including customization level, material size, and quantity.

No, airless bottles do not use dip tubes. Instead, they rely on a vacuum-driven pump system with a rising platform at the base of the container. As the product is dispensed, the platform moves upward, pushing the formula toward the pump. This design helps reduce product waste, prevents air exposure, and improves the preservation of sensitive ingredients.
