Another solution you may wish to consider is to supply the glass bottles to the factory in India and get them to fill them for you. The reason I suggest this is we have recently done a similar exercise for a customer. We were able to source bottles made to his own design in China at good prices and then shipped them to his bottling factory.

Cosmetics imports require a RP - responsible party in the EU and that company needs to register cosmetic items with the CPNP cosmetic product notification portal. Prior to import.
Hi we have done this our products .We ahve been importing for 5 years now .The issue we ahve is the quality of the jars we use and the fact they are plastic

    As mentioned by a previous poster, import the glass jars into India and have your factory bottle the cosmetic cream in India.

    First check how feasible this is to import jars into India, (there are always hurdles importing into India, least being heavy taxes) and first check that the glass jar does not contaminate the cream. (You will be surprised).

    We have recently sourced 30ml glass bottles for natural serums and had to test bottles from 5 different factories before deciding on the correct one.

    The other option is to import the glass jars into UK and supply the bottling company in UK with both the jars and cosmetic cream to bottle for you.

    Labelling is also an important (legal) factor to consider for any cosmetic product.
