Clear Frosted Glass Bottle, Glossy Silver White Pump, 30 ml

Glass bottle, frosted, white and silver glossy pump, 30 ml

A small glass bottle with a pump for serums, facial oils and light emulsions that are dispensed in small amounts and should not come into contact with fingers. The frosted matte glass reduces shine and gives the packaging a subdued look, while the level and colour of the contents remain visible. The pump with a white body and a glossy silver collar completes the packaging, so it suits both home cosmetic making and small production runs intended for sale.

The set consists of a bottle with a nominal volume of 30 ml and a plastic pump whose dimensions match its neck. Both parts are declared suitable for contact with cosmetic products. The set is not intended for contact with food.

What it is used for

• Facial serums and fluids – the low viscosity passes through the pump without problems, and the small volume matches typical consumption with daily use.
• Facial and body oils – glass does not react with oils, and the pump releases them in small amounts without contact with fingers.
• Light creams and emulsions – the pump dispenses a thinner emulsion in an even dose. With thicker creams, first check whether the pump can draw them up.
• Samples and travel packs – products that the customer uses by the drop, for example oil elixirs or concentrated serums.

How the pump works

Each press releases approximately 0.14 ml of contents, which corresponds to a typical dose of serum or oil for the face. The dip tube is longer than the height of the bottle. Before the first filling, trim it with a sharp knife so that it ends just above the bottom and does not bend. The contents do not touch your hands during dispensing, which makes use more hygienic with sensitive formulations, but it does not replace preservation.

Nominal volume and brimful capacity

The bottle is filled to the nominal volume, that is, to the amount it is intended for in normal use. The brimful capacity is the physical volume up to the neck and you will find it in the parameters. The difference between the two values is a reserve for the dip tube of the pump and for expansion of the contents with temperature changes. A bottle filled to the neck leaks through the thread once the pump is screwed on.

Good to know

Before the first filling, wash the bottle, disinfect it with isopropyl alcohol or ethanol and let it dry completely. Rinse the pump with clean water, or alcohol, and let it dry as well. Water in the tube would otherwise dilute the first doses.

Glass withstands water-based, alcohol-based and oil-based contents without change. The pump has plastic parts made of polypropylene, so for formulations with a higher proportion of essential oils or solvents, check how it behaves after several weeks of contact with the contents.

Do not pour hot contents into the glass bottle. Let emulsions and oil blends cool to room temperature before filling, as a sudden change in temperature can damage the glass.

When reusing, wash the bottle thoroughly and disinfect it again. The pump can be cleaned by rinsing with warm water and alcohol. When changing the contents from oil to a water-based formulation, replacing the pump with a new one is safer. The components are sorted separately: the glass goes into glass recycling, and the pump combines plastic with aluminium.
