Why it worked

The video taps into a common sentiment of distrust towards influencers promoting expensive products, offering an accessible and relatable alternative with affordable drugstore makeup. The clear, step-by-step demonstration of each product's application, coupled with the low price points, makes it highly shareable and engaging.

Summary

The creator demonstrates a full face of makeup using affordable drugstore products, contrasting with expensive influencer favorites. She applies foundation, concealer, bronzer, blush, highlighter, lip liner, lip gloss, and setting spray, highlighting the low cost of each item.
