Squeeze Tube Packaging for Lip Gloss and Soft Lip Balm
Boyu Packaging’s empty lip squeeze tube combines a plastic body, a zinc alloy applicator head and a screw cap. It is designed for direct application of squeezable lip products. Start with the formula and desired dose to specify the outlet and tube size. See the lip packaging range and compare the 10 g matte nude-pink lip gloss squeeze tube for a different presentation.

Select the Tube and Applicator
Match the outlet to the formula
Trial the actual gloss or soft balm in assembled samples. Check first-dose squeeze force, dose repeatability, product buildup and dripping after pressure is released. For thicker or pearlescent formulas, check whether the outlet dispenses smoothly after storage at your expected use temperatures. A firm stick balm requires a package designed for a solid bullet.
Approve the product-contact surfaces
Request a component list that identifies the tube’s inner layer, the head finish and any insert or seal in the product path. With oil-rich, fragranced or pigmented formulas, check for staining, finish changes, odor transfer, softening and a change in dispensing feel. Include cap-down storage in the compatibility plan when it reflects actual use or shipping.
Custom Color, Logo and Finish
Send vector artwork, a color standard and the desired tube and cap finishes. Review artwork on a size-specific dieline with the seam, front panel, tail seal and batch-code area marked. Approve a decorated sample for color, contrast, registration and rub resistance. Inspect the metal head for scratches, burrs and uneven finish before signing off.

Filling, Sealing and Quality Checks
Confirm the assembly and fill on your production line
Share target net weight, measured formula density and your filler and sealer models. Confirm whether tubes arrive with open tails and with caps and tips assembled. Check usable fill volume with the head fitted, allowing enough clear tube at the tail for the seal. Approve a pilot run for fill-weight repeatability, tail-seal integrity and batch-code placement.
Agree on inspection criteria before production
Use a signed filled sample and drawing to set limits for cap engagement, head seating, dispensing force, leakage and cosmetic defects. Evaluate the final carton configuration for scuffing, cap loosening and leaks after representative handling. Agree on sampling levels, defect classification and the evidence required for a claim in the purchase order.
Quotation and Export Packing
Send the Boyu Packaging sales team your formula type, target fill, tip and cap requirements, artwork, quantities by SKU, filling location and delivery destination. Ask for an itemized quote covering sampling, tooling where required, decoration, unit price and freight terms. Confirm units per carton, net and gross carton weights, outer dimensions and lead time from sample approval.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the same tube be used for lip gloss and lip balm?
Evaluate both formulas in the chosen tube. An outlet that works for a thicker balm may release too much fluid gloss. Sign off on the dose and closure performance for each formula.
Can I order multiple colors or artworks?
The MOQ is 10,000 pieces. Submit the requested breakdown by color and artwork to confirm how the run can be scheduled and quoted.
How do I confirm the size for a target net weight?
Use the actual formula density to estimate fill volume, then trial the filled assembly. Request the signed drawing and confirm fill weight, headspace and seal allowance before ordering.
