Clear Small Round Smooth Lip Balm Packaging for Lipsticks
Visual First Impression
The ultra-thin wall, high-clarity polypropylene gives a “glass-like” transparency, allowing the true color and pearl effects of the lipstick/balm to become the primary decoration. On shelf or in a flat-lay photo, the product becomes its own shade swatch, eliminating the need for printed color chips.
Micro-Size, Macro-Convenience
At only 6.7 cm long and 1.66 cm in diameter, the tube is 12 % shorter and 18 % slimmer than conventional 5 g cylinders. The result is a true pocket-size format that nests flush into coin pockets, mini-bags and even AirPod cases without the tell-tale “tube bulge.”
Seamless Round Silhouette
The cap and barrel share a single, uninterrupted radius—no shoulders, ribs or steps—creating a pebble-smooth tactile finish that invites rolling between fingertips. Consumer testing shows a 23 % increase in perceived “luxury feel” versus standard straight-wall tubes.
Twist-Up Precision
A short-pitch, 1 mm-per-turn mechanism dispenses 0.02 g of product per click—ideal for sheer balms, CBD sticks and sunscreen formulas where dosage control matters. The same mechanism accepts standard 12.1 mm bullets, so brands can fill conventional lipsticks without tooling changes.
Sustainability Credentials
The tube is molded from recyclable PP (code 5) and can be produced in 30 % post-consumer recycled resin without losing optical clarity. A mono-material construction (PP cap + PP barrel) simplifies curbside recycling compared to mixed-plastic alternatives.
Branding & Customization
Full-sleeve shrink film, silk-screen or hot-stamp decoration all adhere flawlessly to the smooth surface. MOQ starts at 3 000 units for custom Pantone color caps or metallized finishes, while stock clear units are available from 100 pcs on AliExpress for indie launches.
