Overview

The Perfect Custom Foundation Boxes for a Perfect Look

Makeup foundation is considered the cornerstone of creating the perfect look. Whether you use a powder or fluid product, you can easily transform a plain face into a smooth canvas for a flawless appearance.

Most powdered foundation bases are packaged in hard plastic compacts containing personal-sized mirrors, while many liquid foundations are dispensed via glass tubes or vials. This automatically classifies such items as fragile as they can easily shatter in transit.

How can you prevent damage and contamination as the products move from manufacturer to retailer to end-user? It is not enough that most foundation products are bound by thin plastic bands or sticker-type seals – seals can easily be broken and badly-applied ones won’t hold up in transit.

Most beauty products are stacked on shelves or counters, so there is a need for additional packaging that can easily safeguard the contents while appealing to the eyes of potential customers.

Custom packaging also helps boost brand impact and recall with customers. Not only does it put your logo and tagline at eye level with shoppers, but a well-designed box also doubles as an information brief for customers about your product’s ingredients and usage.

For both aesthetic and practical purposes, Packola offers a whole spectrum of options for custom foundation boxes that look as great as they are durable

Designed and Customized for You

No frills, no fuss, no problems: Packola takes the guesswork out of box-making through its unique online ordering and design system so you can focus on creating the best kind of custom packaging you need.

Simply add the details: the size, the materials, even your printing options – and you are well on your way to making a custom foundation box that captures what your brand stands for.

With Packola, you can work on your design in 3D, in real-time, and even order as many as you need in a single transaction – all in just minutes!

Because at Packola, we believe in customization without limits – and the only thing limiting you is your own imagination.

Materials Matter

Our custom foundation boxes are made with high-quality materials that are both sustainably sourced and 100% recyclable, reducing your carbon footprint even as you create striking and memorable packaging for your products.

The following materials are available for your boxes:

Cardstock

This lightweight material is durable enough to hold individual items and is an excellent blank canvas for your creativity. Choose the cardstock thickness you need for your box:

  • 14 pt.
  • 18 pt.
  • 24 pt.

Corrugated Cardboard

Heavier, bulkier, and coarser-textured, this kind of cardboard is excellent for protecting merchandise during transit. Designed beautifully, corrugated cardboard boxes make great display cases for batched products on store shelves and counters. We currently offer the following types:

  • Standard White
  • Premium White with glossy ink printing
  • Brown Kraft

Standard Finishes

Foundation boxes can be finished with any of the following lamination options:

  • Glossy coating enhances the luster of a box surface without being too glaring to look at
  • Matte adds a smooth, satiny texture to the surface that makes any text brighter and more readable
  • Spot UV makes colors brighter and images more striking

Decorative Add-ons

Give your custom packaging some extra appeal with any of the following embellishments:

  • Gold or Silver Foil Stamping
  • Partial Glossy (Spot UV)
  • Window Cut-outs
  • Embossing
  • Soft Touch

Note: Custom add-ons are only available for orders with more than 250 pieces.

Custom material options are available and are priced accordingly.

A Foundation Box in Minutes

Our easy-to-use design tool makes it possible for you to create your box online: just add the relevant details, and you are redirected to our Online Design Tool.

The unique online interface lets your see and work on your design in 3D and in real time. Add your text, logos, and images to put your stamp on your box; play up patterns and colors for maximum impact. When you’re done, just click and production can begin.

Have a design file ready? You can also upload Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator files upon placing your order to get a die line template (cutting and/or folding pattern guide) based on the dimensions in your file.

Q: How do I know what box size I need?
A:

Start by measuring the items you want to put inside the box. You can assemble and group the products together to simulate how it would look like packed inside. Measure the length, width, and depth of the space it occupies. Add an inch or two on the sides to make it easy to pack and unpack. 

Q: Can I order a sample?
A:

Yes. For a competitive price, you can order a sample with your own artwork and dimensions. Please set Quantity to "1 sample" on the configuration widget and proceed to order.

Q: Do you offer Free Samples?
A:

No. All samples are made to order with your own artwork and dimensions. We do not offer pre-made samples or material kits.

Q: How long will it take for my boxes to arrive?
A:

We offer Standard (8-10 business days) and Rush (4-5 business days) production turnarounds for Cardstock Product Boxes while 4-15 business days production turnarounds for Corrugated Product Boxes. Depending on your location, Standard Shipping will take 1-6 business days once production is finished. If you have a tight deadline, please contact us to make sure your deadline can be met.“

Q: I am a reseller. Can you waive my sales taxes?
A:

Yes, however, we need you to submit your resale certificate before placing your order. We have limited ability to refund sales taxes after an order is placed.

Q: How can I design my box?
A:

We have an Online Design Studio that makes it super easy to add logo, texts, and graphics to your box within minutes. You may also design using a professional desktop application like Adobe Illustrator® and send us a complete artwork.

Q: Do you charge extra based on the number of colors and the amount of ink on the box?
A:

No. You may cover your box with as many colors as you want at no extra charge.

Q: Are shipping boxes reusable?
A:

Yes, our shipping boxes can be reused, repurposed, and recycled. We recommend upcycling the boxes in-house and not using them to ship products again to customers.  

Q: What is an RSC Box?
A:

RSC stands for regular slotted container. It is the most common box style for shipping and storage boxes. It’s characterized by two outer flaps that meet at the center and needs to be sealed with packaging tape. 

Q: What is an FOL Box?
A:

FOL stands for full overlap box. The flaps of the box extend all the way to the opposite side. This adds extra padding and increases durability and protection. 

Customer Reviews

Everything I could have asked for

The Packola Team was everything I could have asked for when starting my subscription box company. Their customer service is excellent, they worked with me tirelessly to make sure I was getting everything I needed, and I was very impressed with their knowledge and ability to share their knowledge with me in a way I could understand with no previous box experience. The build your box feature on the website is top of the line, and would highly recommend them to anyone with their box needs.

Packola: Thank you very much, Chase! Learning about PeakFooty and working on your custom mailer boxes was a lot of fun and we are so glad that you guys were happy with the quality of the boxes and timeliness of delivery. We look forward to hearing great news about PeakFooty and having you as a customer for years!

Appreciate the support

My box looks wonderful, thank you so much. I had issues with the editing process, but in the end it worked out fine. Customer service helped me out each step of the way, even providing me with a design element when mine wasn't sufficient. I appreciate the level of the support. You all definitely have my business.
Benny

Strong and Durable

My order arrived in great shape today. I put a few of them together and they look and feel great! I'm very happy with the construction and the box feels very strong and durable for future journeys through the post. It was my first order with Packola and I'm very happy with the website, communication and quality. I'll definitely mention it to friends and will be back for more when I'm ready.

Awesome company

They make every effort to get your order exactly as you want it. I wanted a certain font that wasn't on their website and they went out of their way to add it to my order. Very happy and will definitely be using them again!
