Custom black cosmetic folding carton wk021

Structure

This folding carton features a standard tuck-end closure with auto-bottom base for rapid assembly and secure sealing. Engineered for skincare products such as facial creams, serums, or cleansing balms, the rectangular profile delivers compact, stable containment ideal for retail shelf display, point-of-sale setups, or e-commerce packaging.

Surface & Visual Design

The carton is built on 250gsm silver cardstock, with the metallic silver base largely covered by UV spot printing to achieve deep, uniform black fields and subtle gradients. Selective reverse varnish (spot gloss over matte black areas) creates high-contrast sheen on specific zones like logos or patterns, producing a striking tactile and visual effect. Partial UV printing adds extra glossy highlights where needed, while embossing and debossing are applied to key elements for raised and recessed texture. The dominant black appearance is enhanced by the underlying silver shimmer peeking through edges or cutaways, resulting in a sophisticated, modern monochromatic scheme.

Materials & Construction

Constructed from 250gsm silver cardstock, the material provides inherent metallic reflectivity, strong stiffness, and excellent surface acceptance for multi-process finishing. Die-cutting and creasing are executed with precision to ensure sharp folds and clean lines, while glued seams form a durable, one-piece paperboard packaging structure capable of withstanding filling, transport, and frequent handling.

Insert & Protection

Internal dimensions are precisely set for a snug fit around typical skincare containers, minimizing movement and preventing contact with the carton walls to avoid scuffs or label damage. A lightweight card insert in neutral or black tone can be incorporated if additional stability is required, maintaining product security throughout the supply chain.

Unboxing Experience

The tuck flap opens smoothly, unveiling the product against a dark, glossy black interior with subtle silver reflections. The combination of deep matte black surfaces, selective high-gloss reverse varnish, precise embossed/debossed details, and localized UV shine creates a dramatic yet restrained reveal that feels contemporary, luxurious, and perfectly aligned with premium skincare’s emphasis on elegance and understated power.

Customization Options

Carton dimensions, tuck configurations, internal fit, and finishing layouts can be adapted to various skincare product sizes and branding needs. UV printing zones, reverse varnish placement, embossing/debossing patterns, lamination alternatives, and silver cardstock exposure levels remain fully adjustable. This supports production of custom folding carton boxes, paperboard packaging, printed packaging boxes for brands, custom printed rigid boxes for cosmetics, and health & beauty product packaging boxes in similar retail applications.
