Lip Balm Boxes are compact custom-printed folding cartons for tube, pot, and stick lip balms from cosmetic, skincare, and natural beauty brands. Each carton is made from SBS or kraft paperboard and printed in full color to your branding.
A small, sturdy carton keeps a balm tube clean, tamper-aware, and easy to merchandise in a counter tray or checkout display. Straight-tuck styles open and reseal smoothly for low-cost SKUs, and kraft stock with a matte finish signals a clean, natural formula that suits lip care and gift multipacks.
