Promoted product

Crest Whitestrips

Why it worked

The video uses a relatable problem (yellow teeth) and a common creator trope (trying multiple products before finding a solution) to engage viewers. The creator's genuine reactions and the eventual reveal of a successful product create a satisfying narrative arc.

Summary

The creator shares her struggle with yellow teeth and tries various whitening products like toothpaste and mouthwash without success. She then tries a purple mouthwash and Crest Whitestrips, which she finds effective, leading to whiter teeth and fresh breath.

Product placement

Listerine (mouthwash) ACTS - it is shown and used by the creator to rinse her mouth. Removing it would change the video's narrative. Crest Whitestrips (teeth whitening strips) ACTS - they are shown and the creator implies she will use them. Removing them would change the video's narrative. "Purple mouthwash" (unspecified brand) ACTS - it is presented to the creator and she uses it. Removing it would change the video's narrative.
