Every structure shown below has been mass-produced at Holidaypac for global beauty brands. Each one is fully customizable in size, artwork, finish and insert — these are reference dieline sizes, not fixed SKUs.
1) #1523A3R1 · Perfect Pair Lipliner + Lipstick Duo Box
The Perfect Pair window box is engineered for a coordinated lipliner-pencil and lipstick-bullet duo — exactly the kind of “Dusty Rose / Nude Pink / Berry Mauve” capsule that nude-finish beauty brands launch every season. A tall front PET window frames both the pencil and bullet together so the shade pairing reads instantly at retail.

| Outer Box Size | 7.1 cm L × 3 cm W × 15.2 cm H |
| Box Material | 350 gsm C1S art card with matte lamination |
| Window | 0.2 mm crystal PET, die-cut to bullet + pencil silhouette |
| Vac Tray | 0.5 mm PET, 14.9 cm L × 6.8 cm W × 2.3 cm H, dual-cavity |
| Best For | Lipliner + Lipstick duos, capsule launches, PR mailers |
Holidaypac mills the PET tray with a slight friction-fit so the lipstick bullet snaps in and stays put even after the buyer flips the box upside-down at the counter. The 350 gsm matte board keeps a velvet, fingerprint-resistant feel that pairs beautifully with rose-gold or copper foil stamping on the brand mark.
2) #1523A4R1 · Moisture Infusion Lip Gloss Trio Box
The Trio gloss window box is designed for three slim lip-gloss wands lined up side-by-side behind a single landscape PET window — ideal for “Moisture Infusion”, “Shine Set” or “Holiday Trio” SKUs sold both DTC and at department-store gondolas.
Trio CavityLandscape WindowMatte Soft-TouchPantone Spot ColorReference Specifications
| Outer Box Size | 9 cm L × 2.5 cm W × 14 cm H |

| Window | 0.2 mm PET landscape window |
| Vac Tray | 0.5 mm PET, 13.7 cm L × 8.7 cm W × 2.1 cm H, three cavities |
| Best For | Lip-gloss trios, holiday gifting sets, influencer PR boxes |
Because the cavities are formed (not just laser-cut), each gloss wand is held by the cap and the barrel — so a 6-foot drop in a shipping carton won’t dent the bullet caps or scratch the rose-gold barrel.
3) #1523A5R1 · Moisture Shine Lipstick Trio Box
The square Trio lipstick box is the wider sister of the Perfect Pair: a near-square footprint that holds three full-size lipstick bullets across a single vac tray. This is the structural platform for “Moisture Shine Trio”, “Best-Seller 3-Pack” and “Discover Set” SKUs.
Square FormatTriple BulletGift-ReadyFSC Mix AvailableReference Specifications
| Outer Box Size | 11 cm L × 3 cm W × 11.1 cm H |

| Vac Tray | 0.5 mm PET, 10.8 cm L × 10.8 cm W × 2.3 cm H, triple cavity |
| Best For | Holiday lipstick trios, GWP gift-with-purchase sets |
The square form makes this box equally at home as a stand-up retail facing or laid flat in a luxury gift basket — and the matte lamination resists the smudging and fingerprints that kill gloss-laminated cosmetic boxes after a week on a Sephora-style display.
4) #1523D1 · Moisture Infusion Lipgloss Vault (Sleeve + Tray)
The “Vault” is a two-piece sleeve-and-tray structure upgraded with 800 gsm greyboard for a true rigid-box feel. Six gloss cavities sit inside a heavy base tray, then a crystal PET sleeve slides over the top — the buyer sees the entire shade range at once, like a mini make-up palette.

| Outer Box Size | 14.3 cm L × 14.3 cm W × 3 cm H |
| Box Material | 157 gsm C2S art paper wrapped over 800 gsm greyboard, matte lamination |

| Vac Tray | 0.5 mm PET, 13.8 cm L × 13.8 cm W × 2.3 cm H, six cavities |
| Best For | Limited-edition vaults, full-shade-wardrobe sets, advent calendars |
The rigid greyboard core means this Vault has the weight and snap of a luxury palette — yet the cost is a fraction of a magnetic rigid box because the tooling is a flat sleeve + tray, not a hinged shell. This is the structure of choice when you need “luxury feel at SKU-friendly cost”.
5) #1523D2 · Moisture Infusion Lipgloss Vault (Compact 5-Cavity)
A more compact rectangular sibling to the 14.3 cm vault, the
#1523D2 compact vault holds five lip products in a single row. It is the right structure for “Travel Edition”, “Mini Collection” or “Top 5 Best-Sellers” SKUs that need a shelf-friendly footprint.
Compact FormatSingle-Row 5 CavityTravel RetailReference Specifications
| Outer Box Size | 16.8 cm L × 9.3 cm W × 3.1 cm H |

| Vac Tray | 0.5 mm PET, 16.3 cm L × 8.8 cm W × 2.3 cm H, five cavities |
| Best For | Travel retail, duty-free, mini-collection gift sets |
Holidaypac runs both the 14.3 cm and 16.8 cm vaults on the same press line, so brands launching a “Travel + Full Size” pair can keep artwork files perfectly aligned across both SKUs.
6) #1544B · Nude Mineral Kit Box (Brush + Powder)
The
Nude Mineral Kit structure is engineered for a kabuki brush paired with a mineral powder jar — exactly the kind of “starter kit” sold by Nude by Nature, Bare Minerals, Jane Iredale and other clean-beauty labels. The PET sleeve protects the bristles and shows the rose-gold powder lid through clear film.
Brush + Powder CavityGlossy LaminationMineral-Beauty ReadyReference Specifications
| Outer Box Size | 18 cm L × 9.8 cm W × 4.9 cm H |
| Box Material | 300 gsm C1S art card with glossy lamination |

| Vac Tray | 0.4 mm PET, 17.7 cm L × 9 cm W × 3.5 cm H, brush + jar cavity |
| Best For | Mineral foundation starter kits, kabuki brush sets, GWP |
Note the deliberate switch from matte to glossy lamination — mineral powder shoppers respond to a “clean shine” finish that signals freshness and hygiene at the gondola.
7) #1544B · Nude Mineral Kit Box (Square Format)
The square
14.9 cm Mineral Kit houses a powder jar plus a tube (BB cream, primer or skincare base) in a more “gift-friendly” near-square footprint. The PET sleeve is full-coverage so the entire kit reads as a single object on shelf.
Square SleeveJar + TubeSkincare Cross-SellReference Specifications
| Outer Box Size | 14.9 cm L × 14.9 cm W × 5 cm H |
| Box Material | 300 gsm C1S art card with glossy lamination |

| Vac Tray | 0.4 mm PET, 14.5 cm L × 14.5 cm W × 3.5 cm H, jar + tube cavity |
| Best For | Skincare + makeup hybrid kits, Mother’s Day sets, gifting |
Cross-category kits like this are one of the fastest-growing beauty SKU categories — and Holidaypac’s in-house vac-tray tooling is what makes a custom dual-cavity insert economical at 1,000-piece runs.
8) Single Lipstick / Single Gloss Window Box
The classic tall-and-slim window box for one lipstick or one gloss remains the highest-volume cosmetic carton at Holidaypac. Built on the same 350 gsm C1S matte-laminated platform, with a 0.2 mm PET window and a 0.5 mm single-cavity vac tray, it is the workhorse behind launch shades, single-color refills and influencer PR mailers.Single-CavityShade-Refill FriendlyHigh-VolumePair the single-shade box with the trio and vault structures above and you have a complete shelf system: one box per shade for refills, one trio for holiday gifting, one vault for collector editions.Why Beauty Brands Choose Holidaypac for Lipstick & Lip Gloss Boxes
Cosmetic packaging is unforgiving — a 0.3 mm shift on a PET window die, a slightly too-tight vac-tray cavity, or matte lamination that scuffs on the third re-stock, and the whole launch reads “cheap” at retail. Holidaypac was built to remove those failure modes.
Structural Engineering Is Free, Not Outsourced
Every cosmetic box on this page started life as a 3D structural drawing inside Holidaypac’s in-house ArtiosCAD studio. Our structural team works directly with your industrial designer to convert the lipstick bullet, lip-gloss wand or powder jar into a vac-tray cavity and a paper dieline — at no extra cost. You receive a sealed 3D PDF and a white-card mock-up before any production tooling is cut.PET Tooling Is Made In-House
The 0.4 – 0.5 mm PET vacuum trays are formed on Holidaypac’s own thermoforming line. That matters because the cavity tolerance — typically ± 0.2 mm on a lipstick bullet — is what separates a tray that “snaps” the product into place from one that lets it rattle. Outsourcing the tray to a third party usually means a 0.5 mm tolerance and a 4-week lead time; doing it in-house keeps us at 0.2 mm and 7 days.Matte Lamination That Doesn’t Scuff
The 350 gsm C1S board is laminated with a soft-touch matte BOPP film that has been pre-tested for cosmetic-counter abrasion. We run a 500-cycle Crockmeter test on every new batch: less than 2% transfer is our pass mark. The result is a fingerprint-resistant, velvety surface that still holds clean rose-gold hot-stamp foil — the signature finish for nude-tone beauty lines.Foil, Emboss, Spot UV, Soft-Touch — On The Same Press
Our cosmetic box line runs offset CMYK + 2 Pantone spots, inline matte/gloss lamination, hot-stamp foil (gold, silver, rose-gold, holographic), blind emboss, spot UV and soft-touch coating. Combining all of these on a single carton is what gives “indie luxury” beauty brands their signature feel — and Holidaypac runs them daily.Customization Options at a Glance

A short, honest look at what actually happens between a beauty brand’s PO and the pallet leaving our gate.
Day 1–2 · Artwork Pre-Press & Dieline Lock
Your designer ships AI/PDF artwork; our pre-press operator overlays it onto the locked structural dieline, checks bleed (3 mm minimum on cosmetic boxes), confirms Pantone spot-color builds, and sends a high-resolution PDF + low-res JPG proof. Nothing moves to plate until the brand signs off in writing — typically within 24 hours.Day 3–5 · Plate, Print, Laminate
CTP plates are imaged at 175 lpi for fine rose-gold gradients and skin-tone images. The Heidelberg six-color press runs CMYK + two Pantone spots in a single pass; matte BOPP lamination is applied inline. The print sheet rests 24 hours before die-cutting to let the lamination film fully cure — a small detail that prevents the “lifting” you see on rushed cosmetic boxes.Day 6–8 · Foil Stamp, Emboss, Die-Cut
Rose-gold hot-stamp foil is applied to the brand mark on a Bobst foil press at 130 °C. The PET window cavity is die-cut on a high-tonnage Heidelberg cylinder so the opening is square and burr-free — critical because a burred window edge will scratch the lipstick barrel during pick-and-place.Day 9–11 · PET Window Application & Vac-Tray Forming
On a dedicated window-patching line, 0.2 mm PET film is glued to the back of the window opening with food-grade PUR adhesive (yes — even on cosmetic boxes, because lipstick can touch the film). In parallel, the 0.4–0.5 mm vac-tray is thermoformed from virgin or rPET sheet on Holidaypac’s own line.Day 12–15 · QC, Assembly, Carton, Pallet
Every box is folded, the vac-tray is checked for fit (a real lipstick bullet is used, not a dummy), and the assembled set is inspected against an AQL 2.5 sampling plan. Approved units are flat-packed for self-assembly retailers, or pre-folded + tray-loaded for brands shipping direct-to-warehouse. Master cartons are barcoded and palletized to your warehouse pallet spec.12 Questions Cosmetic Brand Owners Ask Before Ordering
Direct answers from our cosmetic-packaging account managers — no marketing fluff.
1. What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for a custom lipstick window box?
500 pcs for a flat printed box, 1,000 pcs once a custom PET vac-tray cavity is involved. Sampling runs of 50–100 pcs are available for trade-show or PR purposes at a per-unit premium.2. Can I order a custom box size that isn’t on this page?
Yes — every size on this listing is a reference. Send us a 3D STEP file of your lipstick or gloss, or simply the outer barrel diameter, height and the number of cavities you need, and we will build a new dieline within 48 hours.3. How long is the total lead time from PO to pallet?
Sampling 7 days · Mass production 12–15 days for first runs · 7–10 days for repeat orders with existing tooling. Air-freight, sea-freight and DDP shipping options are quoted with the PI.4. Is the PET window food-grade / cosmetic-safe?
Yes. We use virgin 0.2–0.5 mm PET films with FDA 21 CFR 177.1630 compliance, plus REACH and RoHS. For EU buyers, EuPIA-compliant inks are used on the printed side that may touch the product.5. Can the vac-tray be made from recycled PET (rPET)?
Yes. We offer 30%, 50% and 100% post-consumer rPET vac-trays, ideal for brands with a sustainability claim on pack. Cost premium is typically 8–15% over virgin PET.6. Will rose-gold hot-stamp foil survive shipping?
Yes — provided we apply it after lamination, not before. Holidaypac always stamps post-lamination so the foil sits on the matte surface, not under it. Rub-resistance is rated to 500 Crockmeter cycles.7. Can I have FSC certification on the printed box?
Yes. We are FSC Mix certified (FSC-C123456 equivalent on request) and can apply the FSC logo on the dust flap or bottom panel at no extra cost when you commit to FSC-certified board.8. Do you offer pre-assembled (glued + tray-loaded) boxes?
Yes. We auto-glue the four-corner seams, pre-load the vac-tray and ship boxes ready for direct product fill at your contract filler — a real time-saver for fast-moving lipstick lines.9. Can you handle multi-SKU artwork (different shades, same structure)?
Absolutely. We routinely run 24- or 48-shade lipstick launches on the same dieline using ganged printing — the cost-per-box drops dramatically because the die-cut, lamination and window-patching steps are shared across shades.10. What file types do you accept for artwork?
Adobe Illustrator AI/PDF with all fonts outlined, 300 dpi minimum embedded images, Pantone spots labeled by their official PMS number, and 3 mm bleed on every edge. We will return a press-ready PDF for sign-off.11. Do you ship globally and handle the paperwork?
Yes. We ship FOB Shenzhen, CIF, or DDP to North America, EU, UK, Australia and the Middle East. HS codes, COO certificates and FSC chain-of-custody documents are issued with every shipment.12. How do I get a quote?
Email sales@holidaypac.com with your structure (or pick a #1523/1544 reference above), your quantity, finish list and any artwork. A formal PI lands in your inbox within one business day.Sustainability & Compliance
Holidaypac runs a documented ESG program: FSC Mix board is the default for cosmetic cartons, water-based and UV LED inks are used wherever the print spec permits, and our PET vac-trays can be specified in 30–100% post-consumer recycled content. Soy-based ink and CMYK separations free of mineral-oil residues are available for brands selling into the EU and California.Every box leaving Holidaypac carries an internal QC stamp tying it back to the operator, shift and plate — so any field defect can be traced to its root cause within 24 hours. ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and SEDEX 4-pillar audits are renewed annually.
