Fresh-keeping packaging is a fashion packaging trend developed in recent years, which refers to small disposable packaging. To prevent rich nutrients from spoiling rapidly during use due to secondary contamination, fill them in tiny containers and use them all at once, like small glass jars like royal jelly or small plastic tube containers like essence. Although this kind of cosmetics will not become a mainstream product in the market due to its high price, it is a sign of a fashionable and luxurious lifestyle in the future, so it will have a stable consumer group. At present, foreign cosmetics packaging materials in the choice of great attention to environmental protection considerations, domestic cosmetics are also developing towards this direction. Packaging designers will consider not only the promotion and protection of packaging materials, but also their simplicity and ability to be recycled to the maximum extent possible. For example, if a latex bottle is made of two materials, plastic and aluminum, it should be possible to separate them for recycling with simple operation. When the solid powder contents are used up, a simple powder core can be purchased for replacement so that the box can continue to be used. Although the plastic wrapped cartons are clean and elegant, because they cannot be recycled, the cosmetic containe manufacturers who use these materials are seen as irresponsible to the human environment.

Cosmetics such as hair mousse and hairspray are packaged in this form. The commonly used spray packaging containers mainly include metal spray cans, glass spray cans and plastic spray cans, etc.


In combination with the above situation and the development trend of cosmetics and its packaging, the modern cosmetics packaging has the following characteristics in terms of the selection of packaging materials and containers, the structural design of packaging containers and the decoration design of packaging containers.

1. The application of plastic materials and composite materials in cosmetic packaging is becoming more and more extensive. The modeling design of packaging containers, especially plastic bottles, tends to be diversified.

2. The use of glass bottles is restricted. Due to the intrinsic defects of glass bottles (e.g., than the major, fragile, etc.) for general cosmetics, if use plastic material or composite material instead of glass containers for packaging, plastic containers or composite containers are often adopted to packaging, for high-end cosmetics or volatile and vulnerable cosmetics fragrance, such as perfume, general or using glass bottle to packing.

The requirements of the same are different in the same, the same in the different, both diversified and integrated. In the practical application of cosmetic packaging, there are generally two situations, one is: the same brand, different functions of cosmetics for a complete set of serial packaging, in order to facilitate the purchase of consumers, but also make the overall price is lower than the total price of separate purchase. For example, a series of cosmetics of a brand, maintain the overall design style, and then use a larger container, a variety of cosmetics for collection packaging, as a sales unit for overall sales; Two is: the same brand, the same main function, but different auxiliary functions of a series of cosmetics, or the same brand, the same function, but different formula of a series of cosmetics, in the packaging design of the serialization design. For example, a variety of moisturizing cream of a brand, its main function is to protect skin, but the auxiliary function is different, and then a variety of cleansing milk of a brand, its function is to clean the face, but the formulation of the manufacture is different. For this kind of series of cosmetics, in the packaging design, should conform to the characteristics of series packaging design, not only to achieve the role of series of packaging, but also conducive to the choice of consumers.

5. Cosmetics packaging should be more and more personalized development needs. The packaging of cosmetics must correctly convey the characteristics of cosmetics required by the consumer needs of different personalities, and show the aesthetic taste of different groups of people, so as to successfully achieve the sales of cosmetics.
