Mascara Boxes are custom-printed folding cartons sized for a single mascara tube, made to order in the US from SBS or kraft paperboard. They give cosmetics brands slim, shelf-ready packaging.
A narrow straight-tuck carton fits the tall tube shape and prints crisp full-color graphics that stand out in a crowded beauty aisle. Foil and spot UV on a small panel read as premium and help your tube get picked up over a competitor. Print formula claims and shade names on the back so the box does the selling, and use a snug fit to keep the tube from sliding during shipping.

Printing & Finishing
Foil stamping makes a logo gleam on a small footprint, and spot UV adds shine to lash artwork against a matte base. Matte lamination resists fingerprints on dark colors, gloss boosts saturation, and emboss or deboss adds a tactile mark. Inside printing lets you add a brand message customers find when they open the box.
