Recreate the physical vial proportions to closely match the RetraLabs product vials in the reference catalog. The vial should be a TALL, SLIM pharmaceutical glass vial, not a short or wide bottle. Keep the glass body noticeably taller than its width. Use a relatively SMALLER silver aluminum crimp cap that is only slightly wider than the vial neck and does NOT dominate the top of the bottle. Use these proportions: * Tall cylindrical glass body * Narrower/slimmer body * Short rounded shoulder leading into a narrow neck * Small silver crimp cap * Cap width only slightly wider than the glass body * Realistic pharmaceutical vial proportions * Do NOT use an oversized cap or squat bottle shape Match the overall physical silhouette of the RetraLabs vials shown in the reference product catalog. For the label, use a smaller, cleaner label with more white glass visible above and below it. Keep the RetraLabs branding subtle and compact. Use the orange RetraLabs design with “GLP-3 R10” as the main product name and “10 mg” underneath. Keep the realistic clear glass, silver cap, white studio background, soft shadow, and clean commercial product photography. IMPORTANT: Do not redesign the physical bottle. Match the reference vial's proportions and silhouette as closely as possible. Do not make the cap oversized, do not make the bottle squat, and do not make the label cover most of the vial.
Create a photorealistic premium product photograph of a standard pharmaceutical research vial for RetraLabs. The vial should match the physical proportions of the RetraLabs vials in the reference images: a medium-sized cylindrical glass vial with a moderately wide body, rounded shoulders, a short narrow neck, and a proportionate silver aluminum crimp cap. IMPORTANT — use a NORMAL pharmaceutical vial shape. Do NOT make it tall and skinny, do NOT make it look like a test tube, and do NOT make the cap oversized. The vial should occupy approximately 55–65% of the image height, with comfortable white space around it. Label design: * RetraLabs branding at the top * Orange and white color scheme * “GLP-3 R10” as the primary product name * “10 mg” clearly displayed underneath * Clean modern typography * Minimal premium biotech/research aesthetic * Compact label that does not cover the entire vial Use realistic clear glass, subtle white powder visible inside the vial, realistic silver crimp cap, soft studio lighting, clean white background, natural contact shadow, and high-end pharmaceutical product photography. The final product should look like a real RetraLabs catalog product photographed professionally, not an illustration, test tube, ampoule, or laboratory sample tube. The vial should be a TALL, SLIM pharmaceutical glass vial, not a short or wide bottle. Keep the glass body noticeably taller than its width. Use a relatively SMALLER silver aluminum crimp cap that is only slightly wider than the vial neck and does NOT dominate the top of the bottle. Use these proportions: * Tall cylindrical glass body * Narrower/slimmer body * Short rounded shoulder leading into a narrow neck * Small silver crimp cap * Cap width only slightly wider than the glass body * Realistic pharmaceutical vial proportions * Do NOT use an oversized cap or squat bottle shape Match the overall physical silhouette of the RetraLabs vials shown in the reference product catalog. For the label, use a smaller, cleaner label with more white glass visible above and below it. Keep the RetraLabs branding subtle and compact.
