The competition in the personal care market is becoming increasingly fierce, and brand packaging plays a pivotal role in it. As two different types of products, glass bottles and perfume bottles have obvious differences in design and function. Next, we will discuss in detail the uniqueness of bottles and perfume bottles, and on this basis, shape your own brand image through customized packaging. 1.Material and texture: Skin care glass bottles are usually made of thick and stable soda-lime glass to protect the precious skin care ingredients. They need to meet the pH value of 3-9 for skin care filling environments (such as acid essences and alkaline contents). Most of the bottle mouths have spiral lids.

I. Prolonged exposure to sunlight One of the main reasons colored bottles fade is prolonged exposure to sunlight. UV rays break down the color pigments or coatings used on the surface of the bottle, causing them to dull or discolor. This is especially true for spray-painted or frosted bottles with lighter shades.Colored bottles stored in high heat or direct light are more likely to experience color changes. Stacking or rubbing during shipping can also cause scratches and color loss. II. Use of poor-quality paints by suppliers Many manufacturers use low-grade coatings or processes to reduce production costs, but this method will cause the products to fade. Poor-quality materials cannot withstand high temperatures, humidity or friction during transportation. III. Deficiencies in materials and processes 1.Uneven pigment dispersion: Insufficient mixing of the masterbatch leads to color differences.When the melting point difference between the masterbatch and the su...
