Buyer Summary
For skincare brands developing a structured or stitched case, confirm the product map before the outer appearance. Send actual product dimensions or physical samples, target case size, logo method, material route, quantity and sample timing. Sewn cases normally start from MOQ 500; the final route still depends on structure and components.
Buyer insight: a company name does not yet define the case
A recent enquiry asked whether Ecoicolor could make a special skincare case with the company name. That wording signals a branded project, but a reliable quote still needs to answer what the case carries, how it opens, how rigid it should feel and how the logo should be applied.
The most useful first step is a product map. Bottle height, cap width, jar diameter, tube length and removal direction determine the internal space. If the buyer fixes an outer size without checking the products, a sample can follow the stated dimensions and still be impractical.
Separate product fit from exterior styling
| Decision | Share before quotation | Approve on the sample |
|---|---|---|
| Product map | Product dimensions, photos, weights and preferred orientation. | Clearance, removal order, divider height and movement. |
| Outer structure | Soft pouch, semi-structured case, stitched vanity case or framed organizer. | Shape retention, lid balance, handle load and zipper path. |
| Interior route | Lining, elastic loops, dividers, pockets or removable tray. | Stitching, cleaning, product contact and usable capacity. |
| Branding | Logo file, size, position and preferred method. | Embroidery density, print edge, foil pressure or woven-label placement. |
Use Pantone Connect1 to communicate a target color, but approve it on the real PU, fabric, lining or paper route. A digital value is a reference, not proof that every material will look identical.
What changes the sample cost
For textile material documentation, OEKO-TEX Standard 1002 can support a material-review conversation where the selected route and supplier records allow it. Retail projects may also need barcode planning; GS1 US barcode planning3 is useful when the case includes a swing tag, belly band or retail carton.

よくあるご質問
Can Ecoicolor quote a skincare case from a logo and reference photo?
A preliminary review is possible, but a reliable quote also needs product dimensions, structure, material, quantity and packing details.
Should the buyer send physical skincare products?
Actual products or accurate dummies are strongly preferred for fit-sensitive interiors. Dimensions and photos are the minimum starting point.
What is the typical MOQ?
Sewn cosmetic cases normally start from MOQ 500, subject to material, structure, hardware and color route.
Can the case use embroidery or a woven label?
Yes. Embroidery, screen print, foil and woven labels are possible routes, but the selected material and logo size determine suitability.
When should retail packing be confirmed?
Confirm tissue, swing tags, belly bands, poly bags and carton labels before the final sample so pack-out labor and dimensions are not added late.
