About this mockup

Cosmetic bottles are stock containers (glass, PET, PP) — the brand designs a label or screen prints the body. The closure (pump, mist, dropper, flip cap, airless) decides the formula: airless bottles keep air off oxidation-prone actives, amber glass shields serums from light.

Trade tips

  • Check the label at true size on the mockup: 6 pt text looks fine on a big screen and is hard to read on a small bottle.
  • Place a bottle label on the straight part of the body; a flat label wrinkles over the shoulder and neck.
  • Paper labels do not like water: use plastic labels for fridges and bathrooms.
  • Gloss lamination deepens colours but shows fingerprints and glare under shelf lights.

What is the mini essential oil dropper vial sample printed on?

The sample is paper decal 80 gsm with gloss lamination.

Construction

A cosmetic bottle is a body (glass, PET, PETG, HDPE or PP), a threaded neck to a standard finish such as 18/410, 20/410, 24/410 or 28/410, and a closure: screw cap, flip cap, press cap, pump, sprayer, dropper or roller ball. The print usually isn't on the bottle itself but on a pressure-sensitive label wrapped around the straight wall between shoulder and heel; premium glass is often screen printed directly. Bottles are filled, capped and then labelled, so the label has to survive hands, water and the product itself.

Choosing board and material

Coated paper label stock of 70–80 gsm suits dry products that rarely meet water — perfume, essential oil, serum. Anything used in the shower, such as shampoo, body wash or cleanser, wants a PP or PE film label of about 50–60 micron, because paper wrinkles and lifts when wet; squeezable HDPE/LDPE bottles need soft PE so the label flexes with the wall. Clear PP gives a no-label look on clear PET or glass, but the artwork needs a white underprint to stay readable.

Finishing

Gloss or matt lamination against scuffs and oil; hot foil in gold or silver on the logo; spot UV or raised (thick) UV on the brand name. Glass can take one- to three-colour direct screen printing fired on, or a frosted spray coat, though frosted surfaces hold labels less well. A shrink sleeve is the answer when the decoration has to cover a curved shoulder and neck.

Preparing the print file

Size the label from the straight wall: length = π × diameter minus a 3–5 mm gap unless it wraps to a butt joint, height = the straight section minus 2–3 mm at each end to clear shoulder and heel. Add 2 mm bleed, keep text at least 1.5–2 mm inside the cut, and supply the cutter path as a separate spot-colour line. Put the mandatory back-panel copy on the reverse; on very small bottles move the rest to the carton or a peel-back label.

Common mistakes

  • Measuring the label against the whole bottle height instead of the straight wall: it climbs onto the shoulder, creases and lifts within days.
  • Using paper labels on body wash or shampoo: after a week in the shower the label soaks through, goes soft and shows its adhesive.
  • Putting the logo right where a wrap-around label's ends meet: it gets split or lands off-centre on the labelling machine.
  • Printing white or pale type on clear film without a white underprint: the words all but vanish against the product.

Questions and answers

Does a 1–5 ml mini oil vial need a full label?

There isn't room, so the vial carries name and volume while mandatory details go on the sample box or a card in the kit.

Can a 12.5 mm tall mini vial take a label at all?

The shortest size really only takes a round sticker on the bulb or cap; from about 25 mm tall upward there's room for a 10–15 mm wrap.

Paper or film labels for cosmetic bottles?

Paper for dry, rarely-wet products like perfume and essential oil; PP/PE film for anything in the bathroom and for squeeze bottles, since film shrugs off water and flexes with the wall.

How do I size a wrap-around label for a round bottle?

Multiply the straight-wall diameter by 3.14 and subtract a 3–5 mm gap; for height take the straight section less 2–3 mm top and bottom. Always measure the real bottle with calipers — same-volume bottles vary between glassworks.

What must a cosmetic label sold in Vietnam show?

Under the goods-labelling rules (Decree 37/2026/NĐ-CP) and the cosmetics-specific rules: product name, function, the responsible organisation, net quantity, ingredients, directions and warnings, origin, batch number and expiry date; many brands also print the cosmetic notification number. Check with the brand's regulatory team.
