Cosmetic Packaging Boxes

Custom Cosmetic Boxes That Make Your Brand Unforgettable

Let’s be real — in beauty, the box is part of the product. Before they ever touch your serum, balm, or palette, they’re judging the packaging. Is it soft-touch matte or glossy bold? Clean and clinical or floral and feminine? We’ve helped hundreds of UK beauty brands create that first-touch moment — and we’re ready to help you too.

At Healey Packaging, we don’t just print boxes — we build experiences that reflect what your product stands for.

Designed for Every Type of Cosmetic Product

Whether you’re launching a premium range or a handmade beauty line, we tailor packaging to suit:

Skincare Boxes

From cleansers to serums, these cartons need structure and shelf appeal. We offer custom printed skincare boxes with optional foiling, embossing, and protective inserts.

Lipstick & Lip Balm Packaging

They’re small, but they’ve got personality — and they need packaging that keeps up. Whether you’re boxing up lip gloss, lipstick, or a little balm pot, we’ve got styles that fit like a glove. Think: tuck ends for quick access, sleeves for a sleek finish, or telescopic boxes for that luxury unboxing moment.

Foundation & Compact Cartons

We design cosmetic boxes with custom cavities or partitions to hold delicate glass jars or mirrored compacts securely in place.

Eco-Friendly Cosmetic Boxes

Sustainability matters — and we’re ready when you are.
Choose from:

  • Recycled or FSC-certified boards
  • Soy or water-based inks
  • Kraft, uncoated paperboard for a natural finish

All without sacrificing shelf presence or print quality.

UK Cosmetic Packaging Regulations You Should Know

If you’re selling skincare or cosmetics in the UK, your packaging needs to comply with:

  • UK Cosmetic Product Safety Regulations (CPSR)
  • Proper labelling (INCI ingredients, weight, shelf life, contact info)
  • Eco-compliance (recycling symbols, material disclosure)
  • CE marking (where applicable)

We help ensure your box leaves space for all the mandatory elements — and still looks stunning.

Personalised Boxes with Premium Finishes

You bring the vision — we bring the texture, shine, and structure.

  • Foil stamping (gold, rose gold, silver)
  • Spot UV gloss to make key text or logos pop
  • Embossing & debossing for tactile appeal
  • Soft-touch, matte, or pearl finishes
  • Clear windows to showcase the product inside

Let’s create packaging that feels as luxurious as what’s inside.

Flexible Sizes, Low MOQs & Wholesale Support

We know the beauty business is fast-paced — so our process is made for speed and flexibility.

  • MOQ: Start at just 100 boxes
  • Turnaround: 7–10 business days after proof approval
  • Sizes: Fully custom — no forced templates
  • Styles: Tuck ends, sleeves, pillow boxes, rigid gift sets, and more

We also support wholesale cosmetic box orders for retailers and subscription brands looking to scale.

Need Help with Artwork or Dielines?

No stress. If you’ve got a logo and colour palette, we can take it from there.

  • Free dieline templates
  • Support from real UK-based packaging designers
  • Proofing and revisions before final print
  • Optional 3D mock-ups for peace of mind

Your box will look good before you even order.
