2.5 × 1.25 in labels
A 2.5 × 1.25 in label is 64 × 32 mm, a little smaller than a sugar packet. Typical homes for it: a wrap around the 15 ml essential oil bottle (3.1 in round); the top of an 86 mm wide-mouth lid. Expect about 7 lines of roughly 38 characters at 8 pt, and a UPC-A barcode at 80% scale if you need one. Need it the other way round? 1.25 × 2.5 is the same label turned 90°, so it is priced and ordered here.

Who orders 2.5 × 1.25 in labels
15 ml essential oil bottle wrap
Goes 2.5 in of the 3.1 in circumference, leaving a 0.6 in seam; the 1.25 in height stays under the 1.45 in wall.
86 mm wide-mouth lids
About 3.2 in of flat top leaves roughly 0.35 in clear around this label.
Ingredient and care panels
Roughly 266 characters of ingredients, care or directions at 8 pt.
Candle warning labels
The standard fire-safety wording fits 7 lines at 8 pt on a 2.5 × 1.25 in label.
Design notes
Work on a 788 × 412 px file with a 2.375 × 1.125 in inner guide; below 7 pt, text blurs at arm's length. Place the barcode at least 0.15 in from either end – on the 15 ml essential oil bottle the seam lands there.
A 2.75 × 1.5 in flat panel is ideal; for wraps pick containers around 0.88 in diameter or bigger for the 2.5 in length.
6 × 0.5 in is the next size down, and 2.5 × 1.25 in adds 4%; the larger 2.25 × 1.5 in adds 8% on top.
