GET DEPENDABLE, PROFESSIONAL LIP BALM LABELS THAT BUILD YOUR BRAND

The beauty market is critical of both product content and presentation—don’t sell yourself short with labels that don’t match your creative concept and materials that aren’t suited for your requirements.

We promise to match this versatility with our own selection of premium labels to make sure that whether on shelf, in the bathroom, or inside a purse, your own custom lip balm labels stay put and look good all the time.

Choose from a variety of our standard pressure-sensitive and self-adhesive paper (coated and uncoated), plastic film (white BOPP), clear PVC, foil (PET and metalized paper options), and kraft label stocks for your unique requirements.

When choosing your label stock it’s important to consider the regular use and environment of your products.

Lip balm, lip gloss, lip treatment, lip salve, lip polish, lip butter, lip whip, or lip primer—whatever your product, there’s a label material perfectly suited for it.

While tubes and pots are the most common lip balm packaging formats, many of our customers opt for more creative and unconventional packaging solutions.

These can require distinct label materials to accommodate specific shapes, surface textures, and branding goals—especially when matching label sets across product lines.

One of the biggest considerations for lip balm labels is durability. These products face constant handling, friction from bags and pockets, and exposure to oil and moisture.

Your label must stay firmly adhered and continue looking vibrant even after repeated use.


1. White Plastic Film Stock – The Best All-Around Choice For Lip Balm Labels

This is our top recommendation for most lip balm label applications.

  • Flexible & Thin: Easily conforms to curves, ideal for small tubes and rounded surfaces.
  • Strong Adhesive: Prevents lifting, peeling, or sliding—even with frequent use.
  • Moisture & Oil-Resistant: Stands up to water, oils, and friction.
  • Visual Impact: Pearlescent milky white with high opacity and shine makes colors pop.
  • Long-Lasting Prints: Add a protective laminate for even better resistance to scuffing and fading.

2. Clear Plastic Film (PVC) – The “No Label” Look

Perfect for a sleek, minimalist appearance that lets your container design shine.

  • Invisible Finish: Creates the illusion of direct printing on the tube.
  • Enhances Color Coordination: Blends beautifully with frosted or transparent containers.
  • Cost-Effective: Often cheaper than die-cut labels—just print on the areas you want to highlight.
  • Durable & Versatile: Performs well on shelf and during daily use.

3. Kraft Paper Stock – For Natural, Rustic Appeal

A go-to option for brands with an eco-conscious or artisanal vibe.

  • Raw & Earthy: Natural brown with yellow undertones gives immediate visual warmth.
  • Ideal for Boxes or Sleeves: Great for gift sets or outer packaging.
  • Not Suitable for Tubes: Uncoated and prone to wear from oils and handling—will deteriorate on primary lip balm containers.

Tip: Request a sample to match your kraft containers before ordering.


4. White Paper Stock – Budget-Friendly With Style

A practical solution when keeping costs low is key, but quality still matters.

  • Affordable & Efficient: Least expensive stock with solid durability.
  • Great Print Reproduction: Crisp, vibrant prints at a lower price point.
  • Add Laminate: Strongly recommended for protection against oil, water, and abrasion.
  • Use With Caution: For uncoated versions, clean containers thoroughly before application for best adhesion.

5. Silver Foil & Holographic Stocks – For Premium Packaging and Special Releases

Want eye-catching labels that feel unmistakably custom? Go metallic.

  • Silver PET & Metalized Paper: Offer a luxe, high-fashion appearance.
  • Holographic Silver: Reflects a signature rainbow sheen—perfect for bold or whimsical branding.
  • Cost-Effective Shine: A great alternative to hot/cold foil stamping.
  • Protective Finishes: Available with gloss or matte laminates for durability.

Final Tip:

For lip products, style and function go hand in hand. Choose your label material based on both performance and branding goals.

Need help deciding? Our team is ready to recommend the best stock tailored to your product’s needs.

CHOOSING LAMINATE FOR LIP BALM LABELS

A laminate is a clear, protective coating that also changes the final finish of your lip balm labels.

Once applied, it creates a smoother label texture, and protects the print from wear-and-tear against rubbing or scuffing.

  • CHOOSE MATTE LAMINATE – For a flat, low-shine label finish, with printed colors that are soft and muted. Generally, colors are duller with less contrast. Matte coating is forgiving with low resolution prints and provides for a refined appearance.
  • CHOOSE GLOSS LAMINATE – Provides a smooth, high-shine finish that reflects more light. This enhances vibrancy, sharpens detail, and increases contrast—making shadows deeper and highlights brighter. Gloss is especially suited for bold color palettes and commercial-style designs. It also provides more resistance to ink smudging than matte, particularly on paper labels.
  • CHOOSE HOLOGRAPHIC GLOSS – Combines the shine and protection of gloss with a prismatic rainbow effect that becomes visible under changing light angles. This laminate can breathe new life into older label designs but isn’t suitable for all artwork. We recommend ordering a sample to ensure it complements your brand aesthetic.


MADE-TO-MEASURE, WITHOUT THE HEFTY PRICE TAG

Your custom lip balm labels will arrive in the exact size and shape you need. No restrictive templates, no extra charges.

And they’ll look just as flawless on the shelf as they did fresh off the press.

Unlike most label printers, Inkable Label Co. lets you print any size you need—from 1″ x 1″ to 12″ x 18″—with zero setup fees.

Enjoy hassle-free, cost-effective lip balm label printing made to your exact specifications.

Standard shapes:

  • FOR SQUARE AND RECTANGLE LABELS, corners can either be straight or rounded, depending on your custom lip balm label needs.
  • FOR DIE CUTS (A.K.A. CUSTOM SHAPES), please use our CUSTOM ORDER FORM.

NOTE: Choose the correct orientation for your roll labels and make sure that the direction that your labels are coming off the roll compliments your labeling operations. This is needed for successful application, especially for machine application.

PAMPER AND PERFECT YOUR LIP BALM PRODUCTS WITH PRO TIPS FOR OPTIMUM LABEL WEAR

In the beauty world, presentation is power.

Your lip balm might work wonders, but if the label doesn’t reflect that magic, you’re missing sales.

Here’s the truth: great packaging doesn’t just sit pretty—it drives buying decisions. If your label fades, peels, or just looks “off,” it can undercut the quality of the product inside.

Whether you’re selling at a boutique, online, or in bulk, your lip balm deserves a label that looks as good on day 30 as it did on day one.

Here are some quick expert tips for your lip balm labels:

DEFINE THE DETAILS.

Sleek Lip Balm Labels Start with Strategic Design

When it comes to small packaging like lip balm tubes, high-definition print isn’t optional—it’s essential.

Crisp, clear artwork ensures every detail shows up, especially small text and icons that carry key info like allergy warnings or ingredients.

Here’s how to keep your design print-ready:

  • Set artwork to at least 300dpi
  • Convert all text to outlines to avoid font issues
  • Keep fine lines at 0.2mm or 0.57pt minimum to ensure clarity
  • If you’re unsure about scale, request a hard proof—especially if it’s your first time

BEAUTIFUL LIP BALM LABELS SHOULD LOOK GOOD ALL THE TIME.

Keep Beauty Product Labels Looking Beautiful For Longer

Moisture, friction, and heat can wear down your lip balm labels fast—damaging both appearance and brand perception.

Here’s how to protect them:

  • Choose the right material: Plastic-based labels offer longer-lasting beauty.
  • Use laminated paper labels: If you prefer paper, lamination helps them hold up better in pockets and purses to protect against scuffing.
  • Store smart: Keep unused labels in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight to preserve print quality and adhesion.

Durable labels mean a consistent brand experience—right down to the last swipe.

CREATE OVERLAPS FOR A MORE SECURE FIT.

Smart Fit Tip for Small Containers: Prevent “flagging.”

A tight wrap around the circumference of your container is the only way to secure your lip balm labels permanently.

Flagging happens when a lip balm label doesn’t fully adhere to its container—usually because it’s too short or not aligned—so it lifts at the edges and sticks out like a flag.

For better label adhesion on tiny surfaces like lip balm tubes or tubs, try this:

  • Measure the full circumference of your container
  • Add a slight extension to your label width

This creates an intentional overlap, letting the label stick not only to the container—but also to itself.

In our label torture tests, the addition of extra sticky adhesive on thinner label material works wonders on keeping your custom labels perfectly positioned so you can rest easy that your lip balms look great for longer.

The result? A cleaner, more secure wrap that stays put.

CREATE CUSTOM LIP BALM LABELS WITH ADDED FEATURES FOR FORM AND STYLE.

Elevate Style and Function with Smart Label Upgrades

Small tweaks can go a long way in making your lip balm labels both more attractive and more effective.

Add a touch of luxury by incorporating our Special FX like embossing, debossing, foil stamping, or spot varnishes—perfect for achieving that premium, high-end cosmetic appeal.

Because your products are meant for delicate skin, it’s also smart to consider functionality: request a tamper-evident perforation across the cap to ensure product safety and meet retail compliance.

LAMINATE IS YOUR BEST FRIEND.

Built for Life in Purses, Pockets, and Bags
Cosmetics travel—and so do your lip balm products.

That means your custom lip balm labels live in real-world conditions: moisture, friction, constant handling.

Add a laminate (matte, gloss, or specialty) to protect print, preserve color, and keep your branding intact for the full life of the product.

File Preparation Checklist for Custom Lip Balm Labels

  • High-Resolution Images: For crisp, clear custom lip balm labels, ensure all raster images are at least 350dpi.
  • Visible Lines: Your lines should be a minimum of .57pt or 0.2mm thick to print clearly.
  • Confirm Dimensions: We print your custom lip balm labels to any size, so please double-check your artwork dimensions upfront. This helps us get to proofing faster.
  • Clean PDF Export: When exporting your PDF, do not include any printer’s crop marks or registration marks.
  • Outline Your Fonts: Always outline all fonts to prevent any font-related issues during production.
Melissa Posten ★★★★☆ (Oct 15, 2018)

Our orders got held up due to reprints as reported by Zsa Zsa. After relaying how urgent it was for us to meet our deadline (for our salon's launch), she was able to get us upgraded to FedEx priority for free. Appreciate all the effort and we are very satisfied with the quality of all our labels and pouches. Hope our next orders don't run into any issues!

Mia Reddy - CHAE skincare ★★★★★ (Mar 22, 2018)

At first I was afraid it was too good to be true. I was nervous I would be getting low quality labels. Well, I’ve ordered from Inkable Label Co 2x for labels my skin care line and they are now my go-to label company. Nothing but professional, top-notch customer service! The quality, efficiency and price cannot be beat. They were able to accommodate everything I envisioned for my labels and I love them! The free FedEx shipping was a bonus as they already had the best pricing. I wish I could show you how beautiful they are in this review!

David Estep - Bad Ass Balms, LLC ★★★★★ (Aug 17, 2017)

I did receive the labels. Thank you. Once again your amazing customer service will keep me coming back.
