10g Lip Gloss Squeeze Tube Packaging Project
A cosmetic brand approached Xinfly Packaging to develop a premium 10g lip gloss squeeze tube for their new makeup collection. The goal was to create a soft, easy-to-squeeze cosmetic tube with high visual appeal and stable performance for global retail markets.
Unlike rigid applicator-style lip gloss containers, this project focused on a flexible squeeze tube structure that allows better dosage control, smoother application, and lower production cost for large-scale OEM manufacturing.
Project Background
The customer is a growing cosmetic brand focused on lip care and color cosmetics. They required a packaging solution that could support both retail branding and online e-commerce sales.
The main challenge was balancing visual luxury with functional usability. Lip gloss products require packaging that not only looks attractive on shelves but also ensures smooth dispensing and controlled application for consumers.
Based on our experience in Lip Gloss Tubes, Makeup Tubes, and Cosmetic Squeeze Tubes, we recommended a 10g PE squeeze tube structure optimized for cosmetic viscosity and branding flexibility.
Customer Challenges
Visual Appeal
Need premium appearance for competitive makeup market.
Soft Squeeze Control
Must allow smooth and controlled lip gloss dispensing.
Leak Prevention
Safe structure for global shipping and e-commerce orders.
Brand Differentiation
Packaging must stand out among lip gloss competitors.
Engineering Recommendation
Our engineering team recommended a 10g soft PE squeeze tube with optimized wall thickness and controlled outlet design. This structure provides a balance between flexibility, durability, and cost efficiency.
We also suggested combining glossy surface printing with optional soft-touch finishing to enhance shelf impact while maintaining a premium cosmetic feel.
The final solution ensures excellent compatibility with lip gloss formulas while supporting mass production efficiency for OEM and private label brands.
