A cosmetic mockup, made for presenting a skincare label. Drop in your artwork and the lighting and shadows stay as they are.
It’s a handy file for cosmetic startups and skincare brands. Tip: beauty packaging relies on small type and lots of white space. Resist filling the label.
It’s also a good way to compare a few label directions side by side without printing anything.

Editable options in the Cosmetic Mockups PSD
Everything below is on its own layer:
- Label artwork, placed through the smart object
- Highlights and reflections
- Background colour
- Container colour
Add your design to the Cosmetic Mockups
- Design the label flat and keep the logo in the middle third, where the curve bends it least.
- Open the PSD in Photoshop and find the smart object layer, usually named “Your Design” or “Place Here”.
- Drop your artwork in, fit it to the canvas, save and close. The mockup updates by itself.
- Save a JPG for clients and social media, and keep the PSD for later changes.
Labels on curved surfaces compress at the sides, so keep key text in the middle third.

Questions about this mockup
Is it free for commercial use?
That depends on the author's terms. The download page lists what is allowed; when in doubt, ask the author directly.
How do I add my design?
Open the file in Photoshop, double-click the smart object thumbnail, paste or place your artwork in the new tab, save it (Ctrl/Cmd + S) and close. The main file updates on its own.
Which Photoshop version do I need?
A recent Photoshop CC version is best. Older versions can open the file but sometimes have trouble with smart objects and effects.
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.
Why does the download open another website?
We list free files from designers around the web and link to the original page, so Free PSD Templates gets the visit and you get the file exactly as they published it.
