Skincare explained like the chemistry lesson you actually wanted
A formulation-first skincare persona for the Indian market. Maya never reviews a product without reading the INCI list on camera, and the account's entire promise is to show when a premium serum and a budget one use the same molecule at the same percentage.
Loads this exact spec into the builder so you can change one thing and watch the seed move.
Why it works
Ingredient explainers are the one beauty format where the face is a frame rather than the proof. Maya can hold a bottle and read a label all month without ever making a claim about her own skin, which is what keeps the account honest.
What would get it caught
The moment she shows a before-and-after of her own face, the persona is selling a result that did not happen to anyone.
