Clear Frosted Glass Bottle, White Nasal Spray, 15 ml

This is a ready-made set for small volumes of dilute aqueous preparations to be dispensed in precise, repeatable doses as a fine mist. It consists of a glass bottle made of milk glass with a nominal volume of 15 ml and a white nasal spray dispenser with an 18/410 thread, which simply screws onto the bottle. It is intended primarily for nasal sprays and other preparations with the same method of application, where a small dose and hygienic, targeted application matter.

Glass is neutral to the contents, does not absorb fragrances or colorants, and does not react with aqueous solutions, hydrosols, or essential oils. The frosted surface of the glass reduces light transmission, helping to protect more sensitive components, while still allowing you to see how much content remains in the bottle. The set is declared as suitable for contact with cosmetic products; the declaration of conformity can be found with the product.

Why choose this set

• Precise small dose – with each press, the dispenser releases the same amount, approximately 0.12 ml, so the user does not need to estimate the quantity.
• Fine mist instead of a stream – the nozzle disperses the liquid into tiny droplets that spread evenly across the mucous membrane or skin without dripping.
• Hygienic application – the contents do not come into contact with hands or fingers, reducing the risk of contamination during repeated use.
• Reduced light, visible fill level – frosted glass protects the contents from some light while allowing you to monitor when it is time to refill.
• Practical size – the small packaging fits in a handbag or pocket and is also suitable for samples or trial batches where you do not want to fill a large volume.

How to use the set

The bottle is filled to the nominal volume, not to the brim. The nominal volume is the quantity for which the container is designed for normal filling; the total volume to the neck is physically larger. The difference provides a reserve for the submerged dip tube of the dispenser, for the air the pump needs when drawing in, and for expansion of the contents when the temperature changes. If you overfill the bottle, the contents will spill through the neck when screwing on the dispenser and the thread will become contaminated.

After screwing on the dispenser, the pump must be pressed several times without dispensing until the tube and mechanism fill with liquid and an even mist begins to emerge. This is normal behaviour for any mechanical dispenser, not a defect. When applying, hold the bottle upright. If inverted or tilted sharply, the end of the tube rises above the liquid level and the pump draws in air.

Which preparations it is suitable for

• Nasal sprays – saline and isotonic solutions, solutions with sea water or herbal extracts, where a fine mist and a small, repeatable dose are decisive.
• Hydrosols and floral waters in small packaging – for travel, as a sample or for targeted refreshing.
• Light aqueous tonics and refreshing mists without an oil phase and without thickeners.
• Trial batches and samples of aqueous formulations where you want to verify behaviour in a spray dispenser before filling a larger volume.

For oil serums, emulsions, or thickened solutions, choose a different type of closure. All closures with an 18/410 neck from the Handymade range are compatible with the bottle; when combining your own, we recommend checking the seal, dosing, and behaviour of the packaging with your specific formulation.

Good to know

Preparation before first filling. Before filling, wash the bottle, disinfect it with isopropyl alcohol or ethanol and allow to dry completely. Rinse the dispenser with the same solution: several presses with alcohol, then several presses without dispensing to clear the remaining liquid from the tube and nozzle. Thorough hygiene of the packaging is especially important for preparations intended for nasal use.

Preservation of contents. Aqueous preparations without a preservative deteriorate quickly in small packaging with a dispenser, even though the contents do not come into contact with hands. Preserve the formulation according to its nature, or prepare only the quantity you will use up shortly after filling.

Labelling. The bottle is small and low, so plan for a narrow label; dimensions suitable for labelling are given in the parameters.

Material and compatibility. The bottle is glass; the dispenser is composed of several plastics and steel. Glass does not react with the contents. For formulations with a higher proportion of alcohol or with essential oils, we recommend checking the behaviour of the plastic and metal parts of the dispenser in the finished formulation.

Legislative classification of the preparation. The set is declared as suitable for contact with cosmetics. Preparations for nasal rinsing or with a purpose other than cosmetic may fall under different regulations; verify the packaging requirements for such use independently.

Recycling. After use, unscrew the dispenser from the bottle. Glass goes into glass waste; the dispenser, being a combination of plastics and metal, is sorted separately.
