Clear Plastic Bottle, Black Fine Mist Sprayer, Smoky Overcap, 100 ml

A clear plastic bottle, 100 ml, with a black fine mist sprayer and smoky overcap is intended for filling liquid preparations that are applied by spraying. It is suitable for facial toners, hydrosols and mists, hair and body sprays, air fresheners or light alcohol-based solutions. The bottle is made of PET, so it is light and unbreakable, which is practical in a handbag and when travelling. The clear wall shows how much content remains and whether it has changed colour. The set is declared suitable for contact with cosmetics.

What it is suitable for

• Toners and hydrosols – aqueous solutions without oil and without thickeners are dispensed evenly through the sprayer, without dripping.
• Face and body mists – light water-based formulations with humectants, for example with glycerine or hyaluronic acid at a low concentration.
• Hair sprays – aqueous or water-alcohol preparations for refreshing, detangling or setting without silicone thickeners.
• Air fresheners and fragrance sprays – aqueous solutions with solubilised fragrance for the home, for textiles or for the body.
• Cleaning solutions – alcohol-based preparations for surfaces where you want a measured dose per press.

The thinner the content, the better it sprays. This type of sprayer cannot handle thick serums, higher-viscosity emulsions or pure oils. They stay in the head or come out as a stream instead of a mist.

How to work with the set

The sprayer screws onto the bottle neck with an 18 mm thread. The tube reaches almost to the bottom, so the content can be sprayed out to the last dose without tilting. One press releases approximately 0.12 ml. You can use this for usage instructions or to estimate how many applications a bottle will last. The smoky overcap protects the head against accidental pressing in a bag and keeps it clean.

Volume and filling

The nominal volume of 100 ml is the amount the bottle is designed for in normal filling. The actual volume up to the neck is slightly larger. The difference is a reserve for the tube and the body of the sprayer, and space in which the content can expand when the temperature changes. Therefore fill only up to the nominal volume. If you overfill the bottle, the content will overflow through the neck when the sprayer is screwed on and the head may not seal properly.

Good to know

The bottle is made of PET, the sprayer of polypropylene. Both work without difficulty with common aqueous and water-alcohol formulations. For formulations with a higher proportion of essential oils, solvents or surfactants, we recommend checking the behaviour of the packaging with the specific formulation, that is, the tightness, the appearance of the wall and the function of the head after several days.

The clear wall does not protect the content from light. Store light-sensitive preparations, for example toners with vitamin C or formulations with a higher proportion of essential oils, away from the sun, or choose dark packaging.

After thorough washing and disinfection, the bottle can be refilled repeatedly. Rinse the sprayer with clean water and alcohol so that no residues of the previous content remain in the tube and head. You will find closures with the same neck type and other ready-made combinations in the Handymade range. For your own combination, check the tightness and dispensing with the specific formulation. After use, the bottle and the sprayer are sorted as plastic; separate them before disposal.
