Lipstick Boxes are custom-printed folding cartons built to hold and brand a single tube or a small lipstick set, made from sturdy SBS paperboard for beauty brands and indie makeup lines. Each box is printed to your artwork and folded to fit slim, tall lipstick tubes snugly.
A reverse-tuck-end carton keeps the cap from sliding while a tight wall hugs the tube so it stays upright on a shelf or in a kit. The compact footprint reads cleanly at retail and on a vanity, and you can print the inside flap with a shade name or batch code so the unboxing feels finished. Brands use these for full lipstick collections, single-shade launches, and influencer PR mailers.
