Yes, the packaging can be used repeatedly if handled correctly and if hygiene principles are observed. Before each new filling, the bottle and the dropper must be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected, ideally using a suitable alcohol such as isopropyl alcohol or ethanol. For disinfection you can use the products IPA 99 % isopropyl alcohol or Ethanol 96 % denatured plant-based. After disinfection, allow all parts to dry completely and only then refill them.

This type of bottle is ideal for products where you need precise and economical drop-by-drop dosing. It is most commonly used for facial and eye serums, concentrated active substances, luxurious oil elixirs, hair serums for the scalp or aromatherapeutic blends. Thanks to the dropper, you can safely apply the product directly onto the skin or into the palm of your hand without unnecessary contact with the remaining contents.

After emptying the contents, we recommend first rinsing the bottle with a suitable solvent (for example, a vegetable oil for oil-based formulations or water for water-based formulas) and then washing it with a mild cleaning agent. Washing should always be followed by disinfection, for example using the products IPA 99 % isopropyl alcohol or Ethanol 96 % denatured plant-based. After thorough rinsing and disinfection, allow all parts (glass, pipette, rubber bulb, closure) to air dry on a clean surface so that no residual moisture remains inside.

If you decide not to reuse the packaging, we recommend recycling it according to the type of each part listed in the product parameters. The glass part of the bottle, after being thoroughly emptied and rinsed, is usually placed in a container designated for glass. The plastic or composite parts of the dropper (rubber bulb, cap, possibly the pipette) are sorted according to the specific material, which is specified in the parameter table for the product on the Handymade website. Before disposal, always make sure that no product residues remain in the packaging so that sorting is as efficient as possible.

To select suitable packaging, you can use the advanced filter located at the top of the page after clicking on the chosen packaging category. In the advanced filter you can clearly sort products according to several parameters such as neck, size, colour and material. Thanks to this, you can quickly choose the bottle, jar or dropper bottle that will best correspond to your specific product and method of application.

We recommend storing the filled bottle tightly closed, ideally in a dry, cooler and dark place away from direct sunlight and sources of heat. Avoid frequent temperature fluctuations and storing it in the bathroom directly next to the shower or washbasin, where humidity is higher. When using the product, try not to touch the tip of the dropper to the skin or other surfaces in order to minimize the risk of microbial contamination and to extend the shelf life of the cosmetic product.
