Sunscreen Bottle Labels

We know sunscreen labels can get pretty detailed, but here’s a quick rundown of the essentials:

• • Protection Factor: Be sure to include an SPF number (like SPF 30) so everyone knows the level of coverage.
  • Active Ingredients: These are the UV-blocking ingredients (such as zinc oxide or avobenzone) that do the real work.
  • Inactive Ingredients: List the rest of the components that round out your formula, like moisturizers or stabilizers.
  • Claims: Be careful here—certain words (like “waterproof”) aren’t allowed, so make sure any claims are backed by testing.
  • Labeling Requirements: Keep an eye on legal must-haves like the Drug Facts panel, net contents, and manufacturer details.
  • Period of Time: If your sunscreen is water-resistant, specify how long it holds up during swimming or sweating. (usually 40 or 80 minutes).

By covering these points, you can help ensure your labels meet regulations, inform customers accurately, and make sun protection as straightforward as possible.

Before printing your custom sunscreen bottle labels, we will provide a digital proof via email for your approval. This allows you to review your label, confirming details like positioning, color accuracy, text legibility, and more, prior to full production. We are committed to ensuring your complete satisfaction through this streamlined proofing process.

While Blue Label Packaging does not directly offer label design services, we do have resources to help with your custom label design needs. We maintain a directory of Blue Label Approved designers who specialize in label design and understand the unique requirements and technical details involved. We also showcase a gallery of label designs for inspiration.

Our printers are capable of matching up to 97% of the full color spectrum, allowing us to achieve precise color reproduction for your beer labels. We use advanced CMYK printing to produce an extensive gamut of colors. For designs requiring an expanded range, we also print using WOVG ink sets which add white, orange, violet and green.

Our top-of-the-line color management program and processes ensure we hit the correct hues, tints and shades. We color calibrate and profile all of our presses so your unique color palettes and gradations print true to your vision.
