Cosmetics & personal care labels
Essential-oil formulas, curved bottles, three months under retail lighting. Three things this industry cares about: resistance to the contents, conformability on curves, and paperwork.

Problems
Three problems to solve first
01
Contents migration
Essential oils, alcohol and fruit acids creep in from the label edge. Standard coated paper lifts and clouds within days. Use a film face stock and a solvent-resistant adhesive.
02
Curved surfaces
Small-diameter bottles have tight curvature. A stiff face stock will not lie flat and wrinkles at the edge. Softer material and a smaller roll diameter help the applicator press it down.
03
Compliance paperwork
EU buyers ask for SVHC, heavy metals and phthalate reports. “Tested and passed” without a report number means nothing.
