Why it worked
The video effectively uses clear visual cues (checkmarks and crosses) and on-screen text to quickly convey complex skincare information, making it easily digestible and shareable.
Summary
The video provides a guide on which skincare ingredients can be mixed together and which should be avoided. It visually categorizes combinations with checkmarks for 'Mix Together' and crosses for 'Don't Mix', featuring products like Retinal, Niacinamide, Hyaluronic Acid, Glycolic Acid, Vitamin C, and AHA/BHA.

Product placement
The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid (skincare product that moisturizes skin), The Ordinary Niacinamide (skincare product that reduces inflammation and pores), The Ordinary Glycolic Acid (skincare product that exfoliates skin), The Ordinary Retinal (skincare product that reduces wrinkles and acne), Mediupe AHA/BHA (skincare product that exfoliates and treats acne), Vitamin C (skincare product that brightens skin and protects from damage). The Ordinary products ACT - they are shown as part of a skincare routine and their benefits are implied by the context of the video. Mediupe AHA/BHA ACTS - it is shown as part of a skincare routine. Vitamin C ACTS - it is shown as part of a skincare routine. Removing any of these would change what happens in the video.
