Custom Concealer Boxes

Choose a carton for the concealer format

A wand tube, squeeze tube and compact pot need different retail packs. Start with the filled, closed container rather than its stated makeup capacity. A long applicator cap can determine the box height, while a pot needs a wider footprint. Custom concealer boxes provide printable outer panels around that container; they do not replace its own closure or seal.

A folding paperboard carton is an option for an individual retail unit. Tuck closures allow the customer to open the pack at an end, and the panel layout gives the artwork a clear front, back and sides. Decide which end should open first and how the container should face when removed. A different closure arrangement can change the artwork positions even when the outside shape looks similar.

What measurements should you send?

Record 3 assembled measurements: overall height, widest width and depth. For a cylindrical wand tube, include the widest diameter and identify whether that occurs at the body, collar or cap. Measure with the applicator fully closed. For a squeeze tube, include the sealed end and cap footprint; the flexible body alone does not describe the whole packed shape.

Send photographs alongside these measurements, especially when the cap overhangs the body or the pot has a projecting lid. Explain whether the carton will hold one container or an assortment. The working allowance around the product is established during specification review rather than taken from a fixed generic size. If several shades share an identical container, distinguish artwork changes from changes to the physical pack.

Select the board and presentation together

SBS paperboard and kraft paperboard are material options in this cosmetic range. SBS provides a light-colored starting surface for the concealer artwork; kraft brings a visible brown paper appearance. Consider how shade names, small text and printed color areas will sit against that surface. Board selection should be reviewed with the proposed carton shape and the packed container rather than decided from a material name alone.

Internal support is a separate decision. Container geometry, weight, fragility, orientation, clearance and the intended presentation all matter. A wand tube may be assessed for integrated paperboard support or a separate insert, depending on the specification. A retail carton also needs an appropriate outer shipping arrangement for parcel delivery; do not treat its display walls as a complete transit pack.

Make shade identification part of the artwork

For a concealer range, establish where the shade name and identifying color will appear before filling every panel with decoration. An end panel can carry a shade identifier, but the viewing orientation on the intended shelf should guide the layout. Keep product information and any buyer-supplied labeling content assigned to named panels so an artwork revision does not accidentally move them onto a fold.

Matte or gloss lamination can change the surface appearance. Foil stamping can highlight selected brand lettering, while spot UV can distinguish a chosen printed area. Embossing or debossing may add a tactile feature, subject to review of the board and artwork together. Confirm the selected treatment on the actual design rather than assuming every small shade label will suit the same finish.

Prepare the order before approving production

Send the closed-container measurements, order quantity, shade artwork count, material preference and intended use. Include any support requirement and identify which details remain undecided. Easy Box Packaging includes dieline and proof review on every order at no extra charge. Check the opening direction, panel positions and shade spelling on the digital proof before approval.

The minimum order is 50 units. Production is estimated from 7 business days after digital proof approval, with the schedule confirmed for the specification. Pricing is by quotation because container size, board, print coverage and finish affect the job. Quote requests are answered within 24 hours, typically the same business day. Free US shipping is available on the standard fulfillment path; discuss other destinations with the quote request.

If you want to examine paper appearance before specifying the carton, the sample kit has a $44.99 shipping charge, credited toward your first order. It is a way to discuss material and finish preferences, rather than a substitute for reviewing your own concealer dimensions.
