Yes, the glass bottle is suitable for homemade and professional cosmetic recipes such as serums, toners or oil blends. It is recommended to use it for finished, cooled formulations and always test in advance the compatibility of the specific product with the closure or dispenser used (for example, whether it seals and dispenses well at the given viscosity).

The packaging can be used repeatedly if hygiene principles are observed. Before each new filling, the bottle and the corresponding closure must be thoroughly cleaned and then disinfected, for example using isopropyl alcohol or ethanol suitable for packaging hygiene. For disinfection you can use the products IPA 99 % isopropyl alcohol or Ethanol 96 % denatured plant-based. We recommend refilling the packaging only after the alcohol has completely dried and ventilated.

First remove the residues of the original product by rinsing with warm water and a suitable cleaning agent. Then rinse thoroughly with clean water to remove all residues of the cleaning agent. After washing, allow the vial to dry naturally with the neck facing down. Before refilling, disinfection of the inner surface and the neck of the container with alcohol is recommended, for example using IPA 99 % isopropyl alcohol or ethanol 96 %, and only after it has completely dried is the packaging ready for further use.

If you decide not to reuse the packaging, we recommend recycling it in accordance with local waste sorting rules and the information in the parameter table for the product. After emptying and basic rinsing, place the glass bottle in the appropriate glass container according to the system in your municipality. Closures and dispensers made from other materials are usually sorted separately; therefore always follow the material labelling on the individual parts of the packaging and the recommendations given for the specific product on Handymade.sk.

To select the right packaging, you can use the advanced filter located at the top of the page after clicking on the chosen category (for example glass bottles, vials or jars). In the advanced filter it is possible to combine several parameters at once – in particular the type and diameter of the neck, approximate size, colour and packaging material. In this way, you can quickly narrow down the offer to packaging that will be technically compatible with the planned closure and suitable for the character of your product.
