Custom Cosmetic & Makeup Bags
We started producing cosmetic bags, wash bags and small zipped bags a couple of years ago.
Initially we were not sure if we could compete with low cost imports but, with excellent sales figures to date, we have proved we can produce a top quality product at the right price. So, not only do we manufacture these cosmetic and wash bags entirely in our UK-based factory, but you also benefit from our superb UK-made quality and attention to detail plus our low minimum runs.
To make things straightforward we offer a range of popular standard sizes and formats including a flat bag with a top zip, a flat bag with a front zip and a gusseted bag with a top zip. (Dimensions are listed further down the page).
But, if the mood takes you, these cosmetic bags are also ideal for adapting to your own individual requirements, including personalising the size of the product.
Top Left – flat bag with a top zip (digital print)
Middle – gusseted bag with a top zip (digital print)
Bottom Right – flat bag with a front zip (digital print)

Types of Printing On Offer
We offer various types of printing including all-over, edge-to-edge screen print in up to 10 spot colours, full colour process (in which we are acknowledged, prize-winning industry leaders), combined full colour process and spot colour, plus a wide range of metallic options including glitters.
We are unusual in that we also offer a discharge print option on to dyed fabrics. This uses a specialist water-based ink where the colour of the fabric is bleached out and replaced by the colour/s of the ink. The print feels very smooth (there is no plastic or raised feel) and the print durability is excellent. Plus we use opaque inks which are good for certain types of image where discharge is not suitable.
Follow this link to our blog to read about how we solely use water-based inks and to see how eco-friendly and sustainable they are.
In addition we have a full digital printing service; this is great for designs with more than 10 spot colours and for small full colour runs or short runs in general. All-over, edge-to-edge printing is available for all our UK-made cosmetic and wash bags.
