Hinged Flip Lid Rigid Box

Custom Hinged Lid Boxes Wholesale: Flip Lid Gift Boxes for Skincare

What a hinged lid box is

A hinged lid box is a rigid box whose lid is attached to the base with a hinge at the back. The lid swings open and stays attached, so it cannot get lost. A hinged lid can close with a magnet, a ribbon tie, a snap, or just a snug fit. A flip lid gift box is the same idea in a gift size. A hinged rigid box suits skincare, jewelry, cosmetics, and small gifts. A hinged gift box is simple to use, since the lid opens with one hand. A box with hinged lid also looks neat when it is displayed open. Hinged lid boxes for skincare hold serums, creams, and sets.

Sizes and how to measure

Box size is written as length x width x height, measured inside. Measure your product at its widest points, and add a small gap. The lid needs space to swing open, so allow room above the box. Tell us your product, and we suggest an inside size and an insert.

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

• Serum: about 5 in x 2 in x 2 in
• Cream jar: about 4 in x 4 in x 3 in
• Skincare set: about 8 in x 6 in x 2.5 in
• Jewelry: about 4 in x 4 in x 2 in

Board, wrap, inserts, and finishes

Rigid boxes are built from thick, firm board wrapped in printed paper, so they hold their shape and feel substantial. The wrap can be matte, gloss, soft touch, textured, or kraft paper. Foil, embossing, and spot gloss add detail on the lid. An insert holds the product in place and can be cut to fit your item. The hinge is built into the wrap paper, so the lid opens smoothly and stays attached. A sample kit lets you feel the board and test the fit.

Printing and finishing

Printing is done on the wrap paper before it is applied to the board, so full color artwork, solid colors, and fine detail are possible. Keep key text and logos inside the safe area on the dieline, away from edges and corners. Inside print or a lining paper is available. We set up the box on the free dieline, and you approve it before production. The inside of the lid is a good place for a printed message.

Hinged lid boxes with or without a magnet

A hinged lid does not need a magnet. A ribbon tie, a snap, or a snug fit can hold the lid shut. Choose a magnet if you want a firm, quiet close. Choose a ribbon for a softer, gift look. This page covers the hinge in general. The flip top magnetic page covers the style with a magnet in depth.

Hinged lid boxes for skincare

Hinged lid boxes for skincare hold a serum, a cream, or a set in an insert. The lid opens at the back, so the product faces the customer. A printed inside lid shows how to use the set. Add a foil logo on the lid and a soft touch wrap for a finished look. Tell us your products, and we plan the layout.

Labeling notes

Product boxes often carry text such as ingredients, net contents, directions, and warnings, and what is required depends on your product and your market. You supply all text and the layout, and we print what you send. We do not write or check text or claims, and you are responsible for making sure your boxes meet the rules for your product.

Orders from 50 units

Orders start at 50 units, which suits a new brand, a test batch, or a small giveaway. Larger orders cost less per box, and they can be planned in several sizes and designs. Share your expected yearly volume during the free consultation and we plan around it.

Artwork and dieline

We send a free dieline that shows the box size, the shape, the cut line, and the safe area, so you can see where your artwork goes and where text should stay clear. Supply artwork as a vector AI or PDF file with fonts outlined and images at 300 DPI in CMYK. 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.
