Skincare business is one type of business that is growing rapidly today, especially in Indonesia which is a potential market. The cosmetic and skincare industry continues to experience significant growth in the country. However, to build a successful skincare business, it is not only the product formula that must be considered, but also the type of packaging used.

Packaging plays a very important role in the success of your skincare products. Apart from being a protection from environmental contamination, packaging also plays a role in creating a positive experience for consumers who use your products. Here are some types of skincare product packaging that you need to know:

1. Tube

Tube-shaped packaging is usually used for skincare with textures such as gel, cream, or lotion. This type of packaging is considered safe as it protects the product from sun exposure and contamination. However, there is a risk if consumers forget to close the packaging tightly after use, which can make the product become contaminated or exposed to sunlight which can damage the quality of the product.

2. Bottle

Bottles are more suitable for skincare with a more liquid consistency, such as toners or facial cleansers. Bottles can be paired with different types of caps that can be customized to suit your skincare needs. Flip caps with small holes are suitable for toner or other liquid skincare applications. In addition, you can also use the spray cap on the bottle, which is very effective for the application of face mist or other spray products. 

3. Jar or Pot

Pot or jar-shaped packaging is often used for skincare with thicker textures, such as specialty masks or moisturizers. Skincare pots usually come with screw caps or larger flip lids to make it easier to pick up the product with your fingers or a spatula.

4. Ampoule

Ampoule packaging is often used for skincare products that contain high concentrations of active ingredients. This packaging is designed to avoid contamination and maintain the stability of the active ingredients until use. Usually this packaging is made of glass material, which can protect skincare products from contamination.

5. Sachet

Sachet packaging is generally used for skincare products in the form of one-time use, travel size. Although this packaging is cheaper and more practical, it is less efficient in terms of protecting the product from environmental contamination.
