How to Print Cosmetic Labels at Home

We have two paths for making and designing professional cosmetic labels from home. One is starting from scratch and a blank template, and the other is starting from our free cosmetics templates for Canva.

Did you know?: Here at Dashleigh, we offer high-quality waterproof vinyl sheet labels that are printable from your inkjet printer.

Creating Cosmetic Labels from Scratch

Blank Cosmetic Labels Download Templates Free

Example of a blank Dashleigh sheet label.

  1. After purchasing your Dashleigh sheet label, find the corresponding Template no. in the Find My Template directory.

  2. While we offer many template download types (Word, Adobe, Apple pages, etc.) - we recommend the Canva free online designer version.

  3. Use the free Elements, Text and Images. Upload your own logos and images to the artboard. Find our complete Canva Help Guide for labels.

  4. Group, copy and paste the final label into the rest of the label spaces.

  5. Hide the outlines by selecting the image and drag the transparency to 0% or delete the image completely.

  6. Once complete, download the final sheet labels using the Share > Download > High Quality PDF for printing.

  7. Open the PDF file in your default software and print.

  8. Print settings:

    1. For your specific printer, take the time to find the highest print quality settings for the ink. This is especially important if you use dark inks or want a saturated ink quality.

    2. If using the Vinyl waterproof sheets, use a matte or glossy photo paper setting for the material.

    3. IMPORTANT- always print at Actual or 100% to prevent a shift in your printing. This is guarantees that your labels print inside the actual cut label spaces.
