Custom Custom Lipstick Boxes

Lipstick cartons are small, which makes every printing fault obvious. A shade block that drifts half a tone or a misregistered logo shows up immediately at 30 by 90 millimetres. We print these on offset with a Pantone match on the shade block rather than building it from CMYK, because that is where the colour has to be right.

The standard board is 350gsm SBS, stiff enough that the carton keeps its edges after handling on a busy counter. Tuck flaps get a friction lock so the box does not gape once a customer opens and reboxes it.

Shade names, batch codes and barcodes all go on the base or one side panel, which keeps the front clean. Digital printing lets you run 20 shades in one order with a different name and colour block on every carton.

Free dieline, digital proof and printed sample come with every job. Minimum is 100 cartons and production takes 8 to 10 business days.

Why Brands Order Custom Lipstick Boxes

The size is the first thing we get right. These boxes are cut to your product's own dimensions, so nothing shifts on the pallet and nothing needs padding out with filler. That alone tends to cut damage claims and dimensional shipping costs.

Because the artwork is yours end to end, the packaging carries your colours, your typography and your compliance text rather than a generic template.

Board and Material Options for Lipstick Boxes

We print on kraft, coated SBS cardboard, corrugated flute and rigid greyboard. Kraft suits natural and refill lines, SBS holds photographic artwork cleanly, corrugated protects heavier or fragile items in the post, and rigid board is for the price points where the box is part of the product.

Ask for a plain sample before you commit - it is the quickest way to feel the difference between two thicknesses.

Printing and Finishing Choices for Lipstick Boxes

Artwork goes down in offset CMYK, digital or spot Pantone depending on quantity. Metallic and opaque white inks are available for kraft, where standard process colour tends to sink.

Finishing options include matte and gloss lamination, soft-touch, spot UV, foil stamping, embossing, deboss and window patching. Pick one texture and one highlight rather than stacking effects.

Wholesale Lipstick Boxes With Low Minimums

We start at 50 units on this style. Wholesale pricing steps down as volume rises - the jump from 250 to 1,000 units is where most brands see the biggest per-box saving.

Every quote is broken down line by line, and ground shipping across the US is included in the figure you see.

How to Order Your Custom Printed Lipstick Boxes
