  1. Make this a 15 second review. Hook them in the first second.

    I’ll open on “look at that shine” with a slow zoom, then tell the story in order: the intro, the gloss going on sped up, and your verdict.

    Your 13-second review opens on “look at that shine” and keeps every line in order, with a soft beat under it. Want the price and a few callouts?

  2. Add the price, $14, and a few callouts. And make the gloss pop off the screen.

    I’ll cut you out holding the gloss and drop you onto pink for the ending with a $14 sticker, and pop up “high shine” and “not sticky” right as you say them.

What the agent did

  1. Opened on her best line, “look at that shine”, as the hook.
  2. Took out the pauses and the silent moments before and after she talks.
  3. Sped up the gloss going on, slow at the start and end.
  4. Added a soft beat made from scratch that dips under her voice.
  5. Made the whole video an even, phone-friendly volume.
  6. Added step labels: the gloss, swipe it on, the verdict.
  7. Popped up “high shine” and “not sticky” right as she says them.
  8. Cut her out holding the gloss and slid her onto a pink background with a $14 sticker for the ending.
