This product is a finalist in the category Packaging: Design & Materials of Cosmopack 2026
Product Description (No Prototypes accepted)
A loose powder packaging solution conceived to eliminate mess and improve control when dispensing powder. The jar is designed with a push-button mechanism that, when pressed, releases a measured dose of powder into an integrated bottom well, keeping the product contained and ready for application. The internal spring-driven mechanism delivers controlled doses while maintaining product hygiene and portability, while the jar’s multi-component architecture – engineered for durability, repeatable actuation, and leakage resistance – creates a new user interaction within a traditionally messy category. To use, the jar’s top button is pressed to release a measured dose of powder, which collects in the bottom well. Then, the powder can be applied from the well using a brush or puff. Crafted from PP and PET, the jar has been designed for long-term use.

Product Innovation
Powder Drop Jar redefines loose powder application through a patented-pending push-button dosing system. Unlike traditional sifters or open jars, it dispenses powder into a sealed bottom well, preventing spills and overuse. The internal spring-driven mechanism delivers controlled doses while maintaining product hygiene and portability. Its multi-component architecture—engineered for durability, repeatable actuation, and leakage resistance—creates a new user interaction within a traditionally messy category. This combination of mechanical precision and user-centric design sets Powder Drop Jar apart from standard loose powder packaging on the market.

Ingredients List & Formulation (Mandatory, if not specified disqualification from the contest)
The Powder drop Jar is made from a PET jar, with a PET cap and an NBR O-ring, which close tightly during travel.
It’s innovative gesture and unique functioning is activated by pushing an PP plug at the base of the PET jar. A valve opens stainless steel spring, and a predetermined quantity of the loose powder falls out.
