Serum Boxes are custom-printed folding cartons built to protect glass dropper bottles for skincare brands, serum makers, and cosmetic labels selling premium face oils and active formulas. Printed on sturdy SBS paperboard, they hold a single bottle snug and ship retail-ready.
A close-fitting tuck-end carton keeps your dropper bottle from rattling in transit, so caps stay seated and labels stay intact on the shelf. Print inside and out and you get a branded reveal the moment a customer opens the lid - a small touch that lifts perceived value on a $40 vitamin C serum or retinol night oil.
