Here’s a cream tube mockup that works well for a dropper bottle label, a tube design and similar projects.

Good pick for cosmetic startups, packaging designers or anyone putting together a portfolio. 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.

What you can edit in this Cream Tube Mockup

Main things you can change in Photoshop:

  • Label artwork, placed through the smart object
  • Container colour
  • Shadows
  • Highlights and reflections

Editing the Cream Tube Mockup, step by step

  1. Export the label at the size of the smart object.
  2. Open the file in Photoshop and double-click the smart object thumbnail in the Layers panel.
  3. Place your design, hide the sample artwork, save, and go back to the main file.
  4. Save a JPG for clients and social media, and keep the PSD for later changes.

Leave a little breathing room around the label edge so the highlight strip does not cut through your logo.

Best uses for this Cream Tube Mockup

  • Use it as the cover image for a dropper bottle label in your portfolio.
  • Show a skincare label to a client before it goes to print or production.
  • Share a tube design on Instagram, Behance or Dribbble with a real-looking preview.

Questions about this mockup

What licence does it come with?

Mockups Design sets the licence, and it can differ from file to file. Many free files allow personal and commercial use, but some are personal-only or ask for credit. Read the terms on the download page before a paid project.

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.

Will the label bend with the shape?

Good curved-product mockups use a warp so the label wraps around. The preview shows it: if the edges of the label curve away, it does.

Why does the download open another website?

We list free files from designers around the web and link to the original page, so Mockups Design gets the visit and you get the file exactly as they published it.
