The guide to Printed Beauty Bags

The cost of your beauty bags will completely depend on the bag you choose, your desired level of customisation, and the quantities you select. The most impactful factor on price is your quantities, for high order quantities we can offer unit price discounts, meaning per-bag your order will be cheaper. We’ll detail a full cost breakdown in your quote, so please get in touch with us and let us know what you require.

Our printed luxury gift bags provide the perfect carrier bags for beauty brands. These bags can be designed to be large gift bags for more sizeable or multiple beauty items, or small gift bags for individual sets or items. For more of that ‘gift’ feel, we can also include additional packaging such as tissue paper (which we can also print if required). Our luxury bag range is fully customisable, meaning you have full control over the size, colour, print, finish, handles and print features of your bag.

Paper bags are the best eco-friendly option for beauty businesses, balancing style with sustainability. Our most eco-friendly bag is our potato starch bag, as this is 100% biodegradable, which is great for businesses that have environmental impact at the top of their bag agenda. These bags however do resemble a standard polythene bag, so are much less stylish than a paper, fabric or luxury bag. Jute shopping bags are also a great option for beauty brands looking to improve their green credentials – a Jute bag is also 100% biodegradable but also looks great when printed, is strong and highly reusable.

We’ve worked with hundreds of beauty brands to help them create the perfect bag for their products and ranges. If you’re completely stumped, we can help get you started with advice or bag samples for inspiration. The best place to start is with your products, their sizes and styles, working from there to create a bag that perfectly captures the essence of your beauty product. We recommend choosing one of the bags listed above, but we offer a wide range of printed carrier bags, so please feel free to have a look at our whole range to see what fits best with your brand.

All our luxury beauty bags are made from a strong paper, either left plain for a rustic kraft paper finish, or laminated with a thin film to give an extra premium look and feel.

We recommend our luxury bag range as these give the most premium and stylish look and feel. However, printed paper & printed plastic bags can be a great option for some beauty salons and stores for simpler, lower-value purchases, whilst still looking great. We recommend paper bags for those businesses focussed on sustainability and ethical practices in their beauty products and services, as these bags are more easily recyclable and better for the environment. Plastic bags however are incredibly cost-effective, can be delivered quickly and are much easier to store.

This completely depends on the size of the product, however for most small beauty products (perfumes, nail varnish, mascara, lipstick, creams etc) we recommend a small gift bag that’s about A5 size. If you opt for a luxury bag, you can create this to any size you desire, and we also have a luxury bag size guide to help you with the most popular sizes for luxury bags.
