Lip Scrub Boxes

Custom Lip Scrub Boxes for Jars, Tubes, and Sets

What custom lip scrub boxes are used for

A lip scrub is a treat product: sweet in scent, grainy in texture, and often sold in a flavor. It is bought on impulse and given as a gift, so the box has to look as good as it smells. Custom lip scrub boxes protect a small jar or tube in transit, carry your flavor name and directions, and make a low-cost item feel like a present. Brands use them for sugar scrubs, exfoliating lip masks, scrub sticks, and sets that pair a scrub with a lip balm. Good lip scrub packaging also sets the mood before the jar is opened.

Sizes and how to measure

Measure the container, not the label. For a jar, take the outer diameter at the widest point and the height with the lid on. For a tube, take the width, the thickness, and the height with the cap. For a set, measure each piece and decide how they sit together. Allow 1/8 to 1/4 inch per side for clearance. Send us the numbers and we build the dieline around them.

Example sizes (examples only, length x width x height in inches; your container sets the final size):

• 15 g jar: 1.75 x 1.75 x 1.5
• 30 ml jar: 2.25 x 2.25 x 1.75
• 15 ml squeeze tube: 1.25 x 0.75 x 4
• Scrub and balm duo: 4 x 2 x 2
• Lip care gift set: 5 x 3 x 2

Box styles and closures

A straight tuck end carton is the standard choice for custom printed lip scrub boxes, because it is flat-shipped, quick to fill, and fits a small jar well. A reverse tuck end opens from opposite sides and keeps the front panel clean for the flavor name. Auto lock bottom boxes hold a heavier glass jar without tape. A sleeve box slides over a tray and suits a gift pack. For a holiday collection or a party favor set, a magnetic closure rigid box or a lift-off lid rigid box gives the small product a sturdier unboxing, and a drawer box suits a lip care routine in one pack.

Materials and thickness

Folding cartons use paperboard of about 300 to 400 GSM, or kraft board for a natural look that suits sugar-based scrubs. For custom lip scrub box packaging that ships straight to customers, E-flute or B-flute corrugated mailers add crush protection. Rigid boxes use greyboard of about 1.5 to 2 mm under a printed wrap. Exact thickness is confirmed for each order. Every box uses eco-friendly materials sourced from certified suppliers, and recycled paperboard and kraft board are available.

Printing, coatings, and finishes

Print full color CMYK or match your brand with Pantone spot colors, on the outside only or the outside and inside. Lip scrubs invite playful color: berry pink, mint, peach, and vanilla cream are common, and a printed inside panel in a bright color adds a small surprise. Matte lamination keeps pastels soft, gloss adds shine, and soft-touch adds a velvety feel. Spot UV can pick out the flavor name or a fruit illustration, and foil in gold, silver, or rose gold adds a sparkle that suits a sugar scrub. Embossing and debossing add texture to a logo.

Inserts and windows

A small jar can slide inside its box and knock the lid. A paperboard or corrugated insert with a die-cut opening holds the jar centered. Tubes usually fit snugly without one. A die-cut window with clear film shows the scrub, and the sugar crystals and color are a selling point for a visual product like this. Because small boxes have little surface area, many brands use a window only on the sets and keep the single-jar box solid.

Artwork and dieline

We send a free dieline sized to your container. Supply artwork as a vector AI or PDF file with fonts outlined and images at 300 DPI in CMYK. Small boxes need simple layouts: a large flavor name, one illustration, and a short ingredient list. If you have no artwork yet, free design support and a free consultation are included. You review and approve the artwork before production starts.
