"I didn't believe it either. Then I saw my face at 4pm."

5. Concept & Script

You read a doubtful comment, then answer it like you're talking to a friend who asked a fair question. Framework: Problem → Solution → Proof.

Placeholder comment (on screen): "Does this actually work on older skin or does it sit in the wrinkles like every other one?"

Hooks (film all 3, same body after each)

Hook First frame Line (said + on screen)
A (main) Comment bubble on screen, you reading it in the car, eyebrow raised "Fair question. I'm [your age], so here's my honest answer."
B (risk test) Close-up of you smiling, comment bubble beside you "Do age spots ruin your confidence as a woman over 50?"
C Split frame: your face at 8am and at 4pm "I didn't believe it either. Here's 8 hours later."

Hook B tells the viewer her age, which Meta's personal attributes policy may reject. Film it as a risk test only.

Body script (about 30 seconds)

Time Said Shown
0–3s Hook A, B or C See hooks table
3–9s "I get it. I'd stopped wearing foundation to dinners because it creased by dessert." You in the car, talking to camera
9–16s "This one's made for mature skin. Full coverage, and it doesn't settle into my lines." Vanity: shake bottle, label to camera, tap on with damp sponge
16–23s "This was 8am. This is 4pm. Same light, no filter." Morning close-up, then afternoon close-up of smile lines
23–28s "Over 4,000 reviews, 4.8 stars. Women like us, not models." Phone scrolling the reviews, text "4.8/5 from 4,000+ reviews"
28–33s "Take their shade quiz. Wrong shade, they swap it free. And there's a 30-day guarantee." Shade quiz on phone, then you holding the bottle
