Body Cream Labels

The body cream industry is a significant and growing market in the UK. While exact figures on the size of the industry vary depending on the source, it is clear that body creams are a popular and important product category in the UK’s personal care and beauty industry.

According to a report by Mintel, the UK’s body care market (which includes body creams as well as other products such as body wash and scrubs) was valued at £1.1 billion in 2019, with body creams accounting for a significant portion of this market. The report also notes that the body care market in the UK is expected to continue growing in the coming years, driven by factors such as an aging population and increasing consumer interest in wellness and self-care. With this in mind, it is important that your product packaging meets the quality of the product you are selling, which is why it is essential to find the correct material that matches your needs and branding style.

Useful Information

There are several pieces of information that are required by law to be included on a body cream label. In the UK and many other countries, body cream labels must include the following information:

Product name: The name of the body cream, which helps to identify the product.

Ingredients: The list of ingredients used in the formulation of the body cream, including the active and inactive ingredients.

Net quantity: The amount of body cream contained in the package, usually in ounces or grams.

Net weight: This indicates the amount of body cream contained in the package, usually in ounces or grams.

Name and address of the manufacturer, distributor, or importer: This information identifies who is responsible for the product and can be used for contact purposes.

Batch or lot number: This number identifies the specific batch or lot of the body cream and can be used for tracking and quality control purposes.

Expiry date: The date after which the body cream is no longer safe or effective to use, and should be discarded.

Directions for use: Instructions on how to use the body cream, including the recommended amount, frequency, and application method.

Storage instructions: Guidance on how to store the body cream to maintain its quality and effectiveness.

Warning statements: Any potential risks or warnings associated with using the body cream, such as potential allergic reactions or interactions with other products.

Overall, body cream labels provide important information to help consumers make informed decisions about the product they are using, and to ensure its safe and effective use.

How are Body Cream Labels useful?

Ingredient information: Body cream labels list the ingredients used in the formulation of the product. This is important because people with allergies or sensitivities to certain ingredients can avoid products that contain them. Additionally, people with specific skincare concerns can choose products that contain ingredients that are beneficial for their skin.

Directions for use: Body cream labels provide instructions on how to use the product, including how much to apply, how often to use it, and any specific application instructions. This helps people use the product correctly, which can maximize its effectiveness and reduce the risk of side effects or negative reactions.

Safety information: Body cream labels often contain warning statements about potential risks associated with using the product. For example, they may warn about potential allergic reactions or interactions with other products. This information can help people make informed decisions about whether the product is safe for them to use.

Storage instructions: Body cream labels provide guidance on how to store the product to maintain its quality and effectiveness. This can help people avoid using expired or degraded products, which can be less effective and potentially harmful.

Labelling Materials for Body Cream Products

Waterproof Plastic Labels

Waterproof polypropylene labels are an excellent option for body cream products due to their durability and resistance to moisture. These labels are made with a waterproof material that can withstand exposure to water, oils, and other liquids, making them ideal for use on body cream products that are likely to come into contact with water or other liquids during use. Additionally, polypropylene labels are known for their high-quality printing capabilities, ensuring that branding and product information is clear and easily readable.

For extra water resistance, we recommend a gloss laminate over the top to ensure that the print is as protected as the label. 

Transparent Labels

Transparent labels are an excellent option for body cream products due to their ability to create a sleek and sophisticated look that allows the product to shine through. These labels are made with a clear material that provides a clean and modern appearance while allowing customers to see the colour and texture of the body cream. Additionally, transparent labels are durable and resistant to moisture and chemicals, making them a practical option for body cream products that may be exposed to various environmental factors. The unique and modern look of transparent labels can help body cream products stand out on store shelves and attract customers seeking innovative and visually appealing products.

For extra water resistance, we recommend a gloss laminate over the top to ensure that the print is as protected as the label. 

Semi-Gloss Paper Labels

Semi-gloss paper labels are a popular option for improving the visibility of products due to their ability to enhance the appearance of the packaging. These labels have a semi-gloss finish that reflects light, creating a shiny appearance that can catch the eye of potential customers. Additionally, semi-gloss paper labels are known for their high-quality printing capabilities, ensuring that product information and branding are clear and easily readable.

A gloss varnish and gloss laminate are excellent options for body cream labels due to their ability to provide an extra layer of protection and enhance the label’s visual appeal. The gloss varnish provides a high level of glossiness, creating a luxurious and shiny finish that adds to the product’s premium look. Similarly, a gloss laminate provides a high level of glossiness, but it is thicker and more durable than a gloss varnish, making it a suitable option for products that require more protection.
