Product placement
(a) UCANBE Athena palette: ACTS — the creator explicitly states in the caption that they used this specific palette to create the zombie makeup look shown in the photos. Removing this name would change the video from a product-focused tutorial/demonstration to a generic makeup post. (b) None.
