There are different types of Bamboo cosmetic packaging, but the end use is one and the same: to serve as a biodegradable container for beauty creams. They are the ideal packaging material for organically made products such as concealer, facial cleanser, and sun screen lotion. The “bamboo cosmetic jar” label can be misleading. To some packaging companies, their bamboo jars are entirely made from glass or acrylic with a bamboo design. But the real bamboo cosmetic jar is one that displays the characteristics of polished bamboo — wooden, unique, and toxin-free.
