, Often composed of a series of products with different functions, the patterns are exactly the same, only different functions are marked in different colors. For example, Rejoice's first black hair "bottle body black gives the meaning of black and shiny hair; "moisturizing and anti-dandruff" is emerald green, giving people a fresh visual effect.

The second is combined packaging - shampoo and conditioner packaging, that is, the products for related purposes are concentrated in a large packaging bag, and shampoo and hand sanitizer or shower gel and facial cleanser are sold in a small transparent tote bag, and the price is higher than that of a single product. Slightly cheaper for sale.


2. Diversity of plastic bottle specifications

For medium and low-grade cosmetics, in order to meet different needs, the capacity and size of packaging containers are diversified to facilitate consumers' choice; for high-end products, small-capacity containers - cosmetic sample packaging are used for packaging to meet the needs of low-income people. Relatively speaking, the amount of shampoo and shower gel is more, and the family size of 500-750ml is also very common.

Through the fully transparent bottle wall and shampoo, you can see the image of the green oil grass on the back wall, which is pleasing to the eye.

Transparent PET plastic bottles have also become the packaging containers used by daily chemical and cosmetic manufacturers. For example, some companies and brands such as Naais, Blue Moon, Kaimi, and Watsons are the first to use PET packaging containers for shower gels, skin care products, and washing products.
