A well-designed and functional packaging that aligns with the brand's identity and message can create a positive first impression and establish trust with potential customers. The packaging can also differentiate the brand from its competitors and ultimately drive sales.
Sustainability is a growing concern for customers and brands alike, and incorporating eco-friendly materials and practices into packaging can improve brand reputation and attract environmentally conscious customers.

Additionally, brands can consider reducing the size of the packaging or utilizing refillable containers to minimise waste and carbon footprint.
Label laws are an essential consideration when designing packaging for skincare brands. Adhering to label laws ensures that the packaging accurately represents the product, including the ingredients and their benefits.
