How to Brand Shave Soaps in Sustainable Plastic Jars

Nothing beats a close shave. Whether you’re trying to clean up that bikini line or prep your beard for that special someone what you use to prep your skin prior to shaving makes all the difference. Of course, you could always do a dry shave, but that will most likely result in skin irritation and redness. You and your skin will be much better off if you prep your skin properly.

The easiest way to get the shave of your dreams is to use shave soap during your wet shaving routine. Unlike shaving cream, shave soaps come in a solid form that looks a lot like bar soap. This medium allows you to apply a thin layer of soap that can easily be worked into a lather. As a result, you can see all the gentle curves of your skin while having all the softening benefits of your standard cream-based product.

Storing Shave Soap Appropriately

The only downside to bar soaps of any kind is that they can be more difficult to store. We’re all familiar with the difficulties presented by uncontained soap, so picking the right packaging and storing techniques are necessary for DIY and professional shave soaps alike. 

Sustainable plastic jars with a wide mouth are ideal for making your shave soap easy to access without the mess. Threaded 2 ounces and 4-ounce options give you the ability to offer shave soaps that are just the right size. For professional shave soaps, these sustainable plastic jars can easily be upgraded with custom shrink sleeves.

Branding Your Shave Soaps 

Despite the increase in women using shaving products targeted at men, men remain the primary audience when it comes to shaving soaps. The popularity of beard culture improved beard care, and the associated shave nation has caused the industry to skyrocket over the past ten years. What once was considered “preening” is now an expected part of men’s hygiene and self-care. 

As a result, it is important for a company that produces shave soaps to consider a particular demographic if they want to stand out online or on store shelves. Products targeted towards men may embrace many different themes and stereotypes to help target their audience. The masculine lumberjack, the rustic cowboy, the cultured hipster, and the sophisticated professional are just a few of the most common tropes that you’ll see captured in shave soap branding. 

Fortunately, shrink sleeves give you all the space and color you need to bring your label vision to fruition. By working with a design expert you can create a shrink sleeve that uses 100% of your product’s surface area and offers tamper-evident protection. This design will then be processed by a program designed for shrink sleeves. When they’re printed, you’ll notice the ink is on the inside and the image looks distorted. This is perfectly normal, as it assures that the sleeve is scratch-resistant and able to shrink down to the appropriate proportions when applied to your shave soap container.

Watching Your Bottom Line

As an added bonus, you can purchase your containers and your shrink sleeves wholesale in order to protect your bottom line. Bulk orders ensure that your packaging stays low cost without sacrificing the quality we expect from products made in the USA. With all the benefits of sustainable packaging and shrink sleeves, there’s no reason that your product can’t succeed in this growing market.
