All concentrated skincare items include powerful ingredients intended for specific outcomes. Skincare product packaging is equally as important, especially when considering functionality. Dropper bottles provide a unique balance between ease of use and precise functionality for both vendors and consumers. They provide customized packaging for concentrated serums, oils, and essences. Below, we provide the reasons dropper bottles meet the packaging needs for these outstanding items.
Achieving a target skincare results requires concentrated skincare products to be applied within a specific range. Too much product and skin will be irritated, too little will be ineffective and visible results will not be achieved. Dropper bottles have a unique built-in pipette system which allows for consistent and tested doses of product, meaning control is in the hands of the user. For items such as vitamin C serums and hyaluronic acid concentrates, the user will have no trouble getting the amount needed for their skin. This will ensure the product is effective and not wasted, meaning the user is getting their full money’s worth.
Skincare products containing active ingredients like retinol, peptides, and antioxidants may be at potential risk for deterioration when exposed to moisture, air, bacteria, and the external environment in general. Exposure to the previously mentioned external elements may lead to the product losing their efficacy and even triggering a skin reaction. Dropper bottles are designed to limit exposure and to maintain air-tight protection. Once the bottle is sealed, the pipette can be drawn directly from the bottle and the liquid is sealed again. The skin and external surfaces are prevented from direct contact with the pipette, eliminating the possibility of cross-contamination. The air-tight seals maintain the protective ingredients ensuring the product is active and effective from the first use until the last.
Most concentrated products are aimed at helping various skin concerns, and can be used on irritated or sensitive areas. These products are designed to be used in smaller, targeted amounts. The use of dropper pipettes for these products is a great way to help with control over product use and application. Using a dropper is a great alternative to touching the client’s skin and potentially applying excess product through rubbing or patting. In cases of sensitive skin, inflamed skin, or skin with rashes, using a dropper pipette in this way is a great method to avoid more irritation. Using this method delivers the product more thoroughly, helping the more targeted ingredients reach the skin layers more effectively.
The power of concentrated skin care relies heavily on how well the active ingredients are preserved. Light, air, and temperature changes can diminish the active ingredients and therefore the effectiveness of the product. Many dropper bottles are made from opaque materials like amber glass or frosted plastic, which block harmful UV rays and protect the formula from light damage. Also, the small amount of air available during use of a dropper slows the degradation of oxidizable antioxidants and similar compounds. Consequently, the product remains fully potent for the entire shelf life and delivers reliable and consistent results with every use.
Concentrated skin care can take different forms, from light serums to heavy facial oils. Dropper bottles are made to fit all different types. The pipette can pick up both liquid and semi-viscous formulas which means smooth dispensing without clogging or wasting product. This is important for brands that offer a range of concentrated products. Regardless of the product, be it a light vitamin E serum or a heavy facial oil, the dropper accommodates both equally well and provides a consistent user experience across the line.
The travel-friendly design means you can take your dropper bottles anywhere. They fit easily into cosmetic bags and won't make a mess. They won't leak or dispense too much product. Your dropper bottle won't be a hassle on a road trip. Unlike jars and pump bottles, droppers can be used without having to think much about it. No elaborate skin-care routines are needed to operate a drop applicator. Even the most concentrate product user knows how to use a dropper for quick application skin care.
