A craft soap bar mockup, made for presenting a tube design. Drop in your artwork and the lighting and shadows stay as they are.
Packaging designers and cosmetic startups tend to get the most out of files like this. A small tip: beauty packaging relies on small type and lots of white space. Resist filling the label.
Beverage and beauty brands use renders like this on their shop pages long before the first production batch. A shelf of two or three variants in different colours makes a strong hero image.

Craft Soap Bar Mockup: editable parts
The PSD is layered, so you can change:
- Label artwork, placed through the smart object
- Background colour
- Container colour
- Shadows
Add your design to the Craft Soap Bar Mockup
- Prepare the label with a little space around the edges for the highlights.
- Open the PSD in Photoshop and find the smart object layer, usually named “Your Design” or “Place Here”.
- Paste your design, resize it to fill the area, then save (Ctrl/Cmd + S) and close that tab.
- Change the background to your brand colour.
- Export with File › Export › Export As: JPG for sharing, PNG for the web.
Another tip: metallic and glossy finishes look best with a little contrast in the label; very flat pastel labels can look printed on paper.
Where the Craft Soap Bar Mockup works best
- Present a skincare label in a client proposal or brand guide.
- Make two or three colour versions of a dropper bottle label and let the client pick.
- Share a tube design on Instagram, Behance or Dribbble with a real-looking preview.

Can I use this cosmetic packaging mockup for client work?
It's free to download, but the licence belongs to Zippypixels. Check their page: it states whether commercial use is allowed and if attribution is needed.
How do I put my artwork on the cosmetic packaging?
Find the smart object layer (it has a small icon on its thumbnail), double-click it, place your design, then save and close that tab.
Do I need Photoshop?
Yes. This is a PSD mockup built with smart objects, so you edit it in Adobe Photoshop. Any recent CC version works.
Can I change the liquid or container colour?
Most bottle, can and cup mockups keep the container colour on its own layer. Liquid colour, where visible, is usually adjustable too.
