What are the advantages of glass over plastic?
Choosing glass over plastic for your home cosmetics packaging has a number of advantages. Firstly, glass is an inert material, which means it does not react with the substances it contains. This ensures that your mixtures retain their purity and efficacy without the risk of chemical contamination. What's more, glass is fully recyclable and reusable, helping to reduce plastic waste and protect the environment. In terms of durability, glass bottles are stronger and more resistant to temperature variations, making them ideal for storing sensitive products such as essential oils and serums. Finally, glass bottles add a touch of elegance and refinement to your creations, enhancing the aesthetics of your finished products.

Traditional spray bottles
Glass bottles with sprays are perfect for lotions, mists, perfumes or floral waters. The spray dispenser allows a fine, even application of your mixture, which is ideal for refreshing the skin, setting make-up or diffusing a subtle fragrance.
Amber glass bottles with codigoutte
Amber glass bottles are designed to protect your mixtures from light, making them ideal for UV-sensitive products such as essential oils or serums. The codigoutte is precise and practical, making it easy to measure out your products and avoid wastage.
Bottles with droppers
Glass bottles with droppers are essential for preparations that need to be applied drop by drop, such as carrier oils, serums or hair care products. They offer precise control over the amount of product you apply, which is particularly important for targeted use.
Our tips for looking after your glass bottles
To ensure that your glass bottles last a long time and stay clean, it's important to follow a few simple maintenance tips. Before each use, clean your bottles with hot soapy water to remove any residue from previous products. For a thorough clean, you can use a mixture of white vinegar and hot water or special cleaning tablets. After washing, rinse thoroughly to remove any traces of soap or vinegar, then leave the bottles to air dry, neck down, on a clean cloth. To sterilise your bottles, you can boil them in water for about 10 minutes or use a steam steriliser. Make sure you also regularly clean accessories such as droppers and sprays to avoid product build-up. Taking good care of your glass bottles will ensure their durability and the quality of your homemade preparations.
