Glass bottle, green, white-gold fine mist sprayer, 15 ml

Glass bottle, green, white and gold fine mist sprayer, 15 ml

A small glass bottle with a fine mist sprayer for liquid cosmetic products that are applied as a mist: facial toners, hydrosols, refreshing sprays, eaux de parfum and alcohol-based solutions. The 15 ml volume is enough for a sample, a travel pack or a trial batch of a new formulation, where you still want to check stability before filling larger packaging.

Green glass limits the light reaching the contents and masks any discolouration of the product, so it also suits infusions and toners with plant extracts. The sprayer in a glossy white and gold finish gives the bottle a finished look without any further decoration. One press releases approximately 0.14 ml of the contents. The set is supplied with a closure that fits the bottle directly, so you do not need to check the thread.

Suitable uses

• Toners and hydrosols – low-viscosity water-based products pass through the sprayer’s dip tube without problems and are applied evenly over the whole face.
• Eau de parfum and eau de toilette – an alcohol base is sprayed as a fine mist, and the small volume works as a fragrance sample or a handbag-size pack.
• Refreshing and setting sprays – sprays for the skin after make-up, refreshing during the day, or light hair sprays without thickeners.
• Samples and formulation testing – before making a larger quantity, you can use a 15 ml bottle to check how the product behaves in a spray and whether it clogs the nozzle.

Nominal and total volume

The bottle has a nominal volume of 15 ml, which is the quantity the packaging is designed for in normal filling. The total volume to the brim is larger. The difference provides a reserve for the sprayer’s dip tube, the air space under the closure and any expansion of the contents when the temperature changes. Fill to the nominal volume, not up to the neck, otherwise part of the contents will be pushed out when the sprayer is screwed on.

Good to know

The sprayer draws the contents through a dip tube, which is longer than the bottle and is meant to reach almost to the bottom. If it bends after fitting, shorten it with a diagonal cut so that it ends just above the bottom. The sprayer will then draw the contents until the bottle is empty.

Before the first filling, wash the bottle, disinfect it with isopropyl alcohol or ethanol and leave it to dry completely. Rinse the sprayer with clean water, or with ethanol, and pump it empty several times so that any remaining liquid runs out of the dip tube. The bottle and the sprayer are suitable for repeated use, but whenever you change the contents, always start with a clean and dry bottle and closure.

For alcohol-based perfumes and fragrances with a higher proportion of essential oils, we recommend checking the tightness and behaviour of the closure after several weeks in a filled bottle before you move on to producing a larger batch.

The packaging material of the bottle and the sprayer is declared as suitable for contact with cosmetic products. A declaration of conformity is available with the product. The set as a whole is intended for cosmetics. For recycling, the glass bottle belongs with glass, while the sprayer combines plastic and aluminium, so separate it from the bottle before disposal.

The sprayer forms a fixed combination with this bottle. If you want to close the bottle differently, you can find closures with the same neck type and further ready-made combinations in the Handymade range. For your own combination, we recommend checking the tightness, dispensing and behaviour of the packaging with your specific formulation.
