A few things to keep in mind during the cosmetic packaging design process:
What you highlight on the front of the packaging is what consumers notice first. Are you trying to build a brand or sell a product? The answer dictates your approach. If it`s a brand, make your logo and messaging the focal point. If it`s a product, keep the specifics on what makes it so great.
For both the front and back of your label, make sure it answers a consumer`s most immediate questions: product description, contents, whose it`s for, how to use it, instructions or warnings.
Also include any particulars that make your brand or the product worth buying: eco-friendly, cruelty-free, special ingredients, specific beauty benefits, or specific altruistic benefits ([a percentage of your purchase will be donated to-").
Whatever route you take, ensure it`s clear, concise, and appeals to your ideal consumer and entices everyone else. Ask yourself these questions:
- Is the product identifiable? Clear what it`s for and what it does?
- Is it clear which brand is selling the product?
- Will it stand out on a shelf? Or blend it with competitor packaging?
- Will it create excitement among consumers who pick it? Will it provide an experience for those ordering it online?
Most importantly, does the design match the vision you have for both your brand and the products you`re selling? Ensure to create actual physical mock-ups of the packaging designs during the design process. This allows you and your team to experience what the consumer would in the store or during an unboxing.
Finally, even though much of your packaging costs stem from the actual containers, boxes, and bags, be mindful of the costs associated with your design. The more elaborate they are, the more you`ll pay. Work with vendors across the entire project – designer, printer, and logistics – to secure the cosmetic packing you want at a price you can handle.
