Cosmetic Containers and Jars
A general mindset regarding the packaging of the cosmetic items available in the present market makes most of us think it to be the responsibility of the cosmetics manufacturers; what we overlook is the word till. Yes, it’s till an item hits the shelf and gets sold off. After that, it’s up to the user’s obligation to maintain and keep it fresh for making the most out of it, over an extended period.
It’s not an easy task to replicate the same packaging as provided by the original manufacturer but there are umpteen numbers of high quality cosmetic containers and jars that can provide an up to the mark packaging. As a rule of thumb, they must be airtight primarily to resist the external atmosphere from creeping in; secondly, they must be resistive – at least neutral - to all the chemicals present within the concoction. If these two points are taken care of primarily, there shall be enough scopes to decide on the material of the cosmetic containers and jars as well as on their respective designs. However, one needs to be a little informed on the color schemes to derive the max out of the stuff inside, for colors are (in) famous for being powerful catalysts in presence of light. That applies mostly to the transparent cosmetic containers and jars.
The materials mostly comprise plastic, metals, porcelain/ceramics and glasses that are often very bright and vibrant. While that’s a lot of eye-candy (orange is the latest trend among females), they are seldom as functional as what males prefer. Thus, a few common guidelines to make every person make the best out of both worlds:
- Cosmetic containers and jars must depict quality and value.
- Thick and dark violet glass protects any cosmetic product from photoreactions and organic contamination. Else, wrapping a thick, black paper around is best.
- Prefer porcelain jars for storing powdery stuff and glass for suspensions and liquids.
- The containers should be small enough to carry around and big enough to store considerable amount of cosmetics inside.
If you visual perception is equally important to you, there are detailed, designer glass containers and jars in the most unique shapes. Now that brings into the domain several metals (gold for the rich and steel for most of us) as the building material. But care must be taken that the insides have a layer of non-reactive substances (glass, plastic or porcelain). There are also cosmetic containers and jars that are made from high-grade plastic; these are best for preserving oils, lotions, and shampoos due to their ability for diffusing light. They also make the best option for storing any cosmetic products in bulk and there are separate containers and jars for storing cosmetics as varied as loose powder and liquids. But to ensure, maximum safety, put all the cosmetic containers and jars into a cosmetic case with neoprene gaskets to prevent dust and moisture. That would also help in staying organized and an easy carrying around.
