Primary packaging, also called cosmetic containers, is housing the cosmetic product. It is in direct contact with the cosmetic product. Secondary packaging is the outer wrapping of one or several cosmetic containers.

The cosmetic container shall carry the name of the <a href="/wiki/Distributor" title="Distributor">distributor</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Ingredient" title="Ingredient">ingredients</a>, define storage, nominal content, product identification (e.g., batch number), warning notices, and directions for use.
