Ordering Instructions:
Step 1: PLACING YOUR ORDER
Select the material type, laminate, and quantity you would like. Be sure to select the important note before adding the label to your cart.
Choosing Your Material:
-
White BOPP Labels - White BOPP labels are our most commonly used material and are suitable for most applications. White BOPP labels are made with polypropylene material and have a permanent adhesive. It is impervious to water and oils, and is particularly suitable for bath and body products, as well as food and beverage products.
Choosing Your Laminate:
-
High Gloss - High gloss is our most popular laminate. It provides protection for the label and a high gloss shiny finish.
-
Matte - The Matte Laminate provides your label with a dull almost satin like non-glossy finish. Some customers consider this achieves a more "natural" or "modern" look.
Choose Your Quantity:
-
Press Proofs Available - We offer a sample press proof for $14.95 print + shipping. This is a printed laminated physical copy of your label. Think of the sample press proof as a prototype of your order. This is an option that many of our clients choose so they can see what the label looks like on their product before committing to hundreds of labels.
Multiple Versions:
-
Orders can be split into multiple print versions for a $25 fee per version. Minimum of 100 labels per art version. You can add this fee to your cart here.

High Quality Lip Balm Labels
I have printing lip balm labels at home and at print shops with the templates that never really line up perfectly. These labels are seriously high quality with a nice pearl color. They also always send more than what you buy so when you accidentally ruin a label you are covered. They are come in a roll which make it easy to peel off. Great price! I'M IN LOVE!!!
-
Awesome quality!
I had problems with lip balm labels but not these! Bulk Apothecary did a great job, they are good quality, stick well, and look very professional and tamperproof. Will order all my lip balm labels from them.

Great quality custom labels

Adequate
The are okay, not great and some of them weren't even usable on the roll.

Professional look
Ordered these labels for my lip balms and it looks very professional, comparable to the big name brands. Easy to peel and reapply if it did not go on right the first time.
-
Beautiful!
I have ordered these labels twice. I absolutely LOVE them! The price is wonderful and the quality is top-notch. I love that they have the tamper-proof tab and they fit my tubes perfectly. Ellie made the printing process very smooth and printing was within a very reasonable timeframe. Keep doing what you are doing Bulk Apothecary!
