Yes, the bottle can be used repeatedly within your own cosmetic production, provided that hygiene principles are followed. However, before each new filling, it is necessary to thoroughly clean and disinfect the packaging, ideally using a suitable alcohol, for example isopropyl alcohol or denatured plant ethanol. This minimizes the risk of microbial contamination and extends the lifetime of your cosmetic products.

First, we recommend mechanically rinsing the packaging with warm water and a mild, non-aggressive cleaning agent to remove residues of the original product. Then thoroughly rinse the bottle and the parts of the dispenser with clean water and allow them to dry completely. Before refilling, disinfect the surfaces and the inner parts that come into contact with the product with alcohol – for example, using IPA 99 % or ethanol 96 %. Make sure that no residues of cleaning agents or water remain in the packaging.

This type of glass dropper bottle with cream dispenser is ideal for thicker and creamy formulations for which precise dosing and limited contact with air are important. It is particularly suitable for face serums, light creams, eye area products, treatment cures or smaller doses of dermal products. Thanks to the practical dispenser, the packaging is also suitable as a travel version of a favourite cream or for test packaging of your own formulas.

When filling, we recommend working with a homogeneous, sufficiently smooth cream texture without coarse particles to ensure the smooth functionality of the dispenser mechanism. Fill the bottle slowly to minimize the amount of air bubbles that could affect the first dosing. After filling and closing, press the dispenser several times until the product begins to come out evenly. When using, we recommend applying smaller doses and adding more if needed, in order to avoid wasting product.

If you decide not to reuse the packaging, we recommend recycling it according to the material composition stated in the product parameters. After removing the remaining contents, the glass bottle can be sorted into a container intended for glass. The plastic parts of the dispenser (cap, pump, internal components) usually need to be placed in plastic collection, and you should remove cosmetic residues from them before disposal. Always follow the local waste sorting rules and the information on materials given for the product on the Handymade.sk website.

The simplest way is to use the advanced filter in the packaging category. After clicking on the selected category (for example bottles, jars, pots), you will find at the top of the page an option to filter according to several parameters. You can select packaging by neck type, size, colour or material, thereby narrowing down the offer only to products that are suitable for your specific formulation. Thanks to the filter, you will quickly find packaging that meets your technical as well as aesthetic requirements.
