Serum Bottles

Glass Serum Bottles with Droppers, Pumps, and Lash Applicators

What serum bottles are used for

A serum is a light, concentrated product, so it is sold in a small bottle that doses it with care. Serum bottles are used for face serums, eye serums, facial oils, hair serums, scalp serums, and lash serums. Skincare and beauty brands buy empty serum bottles to fill at their own site. Glass serum bottles are the most common choice, because glass looks clean on the shelf, does not take on the smell of the contents, and can be recycled. The closure sets how the product is used: a dropper for oils and thin serums, an airless pump for creamy serums, and a brush applicator for lashes and brows.

Sizes and how to measure

Serum bottles are sold by the volume they hold. Lash serum bottles are small, from 3 ml to 10 ml. Face serum bottles are 15 ml, 30 ml, 50 ml, and sometimes 100 ml, and 30 ml is the most popular size. Check the total height with the closure on, because that sets the height of your box. Measure the bottle diameter and the flat area of the label if you plan to use one. The closure must match the neck of the bottle, so send us the size you want and we confirm the match.

Example sizes (approximate and for reference only; we confirm the exact size before you order):

• 5 ml lash serum bottle: about 0.7 in wide x 3.5 in tall with applicator
• 10 ml lash or eye serum bottle: about 0.9 in wide x 3.9 in tall
• 15 ml serum bottle with dropper: about 1.1 in wide x 3.6 in tall
• 30 ml serum bottle with dropper: about 1.3 in wide x 4.1 in tall
• 50 ml serum bottle with dropper: about 1.6 in wide x 4.9 in tall

Glass, colors, and closures

Glass serum bottles come in clear, frosted, amber, cobalt blue, and green. Amber and dark glass block more light and are a common choice for oils and serums. Serum bottles with dropper use a glass pipette and a rubber or silicone bulb, and the collar can be black, white, gold, or silver. An airless pump suits creamy serums and limits how much air touches the product. A brush applicator, like a small mascara wand, suits lash and brow serums, and a roll on ball suits eye serums. A tamper band or an inner plug can be added for shipping. We confirm the bottle and closure match on the proof.

Printing, coating, and finishes

Custom serum bottles can carry a logo in several ways. Screen printing puts one or two colors straight on the glass and lasts well, and white ink stands out on amber glass. Hot stamp foil in gold or silver gives a sharp metallic mark. A pressure sensitive label gives full color and room for text, and a frosted or colored coating can match your brand. Serum bottles wholesale orders can be printed with the same design on every bottle, or left plain if you prefer to label them yourself.

Labeling notes

If your bottle holds a skincare or lash product, the label must carry the text that the law requires for your product, such as ingredients, net contents, and warnings. Lash and eye products may need extra warnings. You supply the text and the layout, and we print what you send. We do not write or check label text or claims, so please have your final label reviewed by a person who knows the rules for your product.

Artwork and dieline

We send a free dieline that shows the print area on your bottle, or the size of your label. Supply artwork as a vector AI or PDF file with fonts outlined and images at 300 DPI in CMYK. Screen print and foil designs work best as single color vector files. If you have no artwork yet, free design support and a free consultation are included, and our team can help lay out the logo and the text from your brand colors. You review and approve the artwork before production starts.
