Beauty and skincare UGC
Beauty UGC that gets to the good part.
Beauty and skincare brands want proof on a real face: the routine, the texture, the result. Film yourself talking through it, press Auto Edit in Bang AI, and it cuts the ums, pauses and false starts, adds punch-ins and captions. On Ultimate, say “overlay” and your product shot lands on that line.

Who Bang AI isn’t for: it cuts by what you say, so it works best on talking-to-camera videos with clear speech. If nobody talks in your videos, it’s the wrong app, and we’d rather tell you now.
What a beauty UGC video does
- Leads with the resultShow or say what changed before you explain how.
- Keeps the product in frameHold it close to the camera when you name it.
- Says who it’s forSkin type, concern, budget: one line that tells the right viewer to stay.
A skincare routine, before and after
One take of a three-step morning routine, with the cleanser shot called by voice (Ultimate).
Um, so first, the cleanser. Overlay cleanser. 3.4 s Uh, then, like, two drops of the serum. Wait, let me start again. Then two drops of serum, pressed in. 2.1 s Last, sunscreen, every single morning.

What to film for a beauty UGC video
Get these on camera
- Your bare skin first, in the light you’ll use for the result
- The texture on the back of your hand, close to the lens
- The name on the pack, held still for a second
- Each step said out loud as you do it
Watch out for
- Ring light glare that hides the texture
- Filters or beauty modes: brands want the real result
- Silent stretches while a product sinks in, which get cut
- Claims about results the brand hasn’t approved
How to film a before and after that holds up
- Same light, same angleFilm the before and the after in the same spot, so the change is the only change.
- Say whenSay “day one” and “week six” out loud, so the captions carry the timeline.
- Show the whole faceFilm the same framing both times, not a close-up of only the best patch.
How to film a routine without losing the viewer
- Name the step first“Cleanser first” tells the viewer where they are before you do it.
- Show the slow part onceOne full application is enough; on later steps, get to the result.
- End on the finished lookThe last shot is the result, close to the lens, in good light.
Questions, answered.
What’s the best video editor for beauty UGC?
If you film yourself talking through products, Bang AI. It cuts your takes for you, adds punch-ins and captions, and drops your product shot on the line you say it.
Can captions spell product names right?
Captions are automatic, and you can click any word to fix it in the Mac app.
Can I keep a long routine short?
Yes. The auto edit cuts the pauses and false starts, and you can swap any flubbed line for another take, so a ten-step routine stays tight.
Does it make my skin look different?
No. Bang AI cuts and captions your video; it doesn’t retouch faces.
How do I film skincare texture up close?
Hold the product near the lens in soft light, and film the texture on the back of your hand as its own clip. Put it over your take as B-roll on a layer in the Mac app (Pro).
Can the product be on screen while I talk about it?
Yes. Hold it close to the lens when you name it, or on Ultimate, call your product shot by voice so it lands on that line.
How do I review a product I didn’t love?
Say what worked, what didn’t and whose skin it might suit better. An honest line is what makes the rest of the review believable.
What light is best for skincare videos?
Soft light from a window in front of you shows texture without glare. A bright ring light straight on flattens the skin and hides what the product did.
Is Bang AI on the App Store?
Yes. Get Bang AI on the App Store for iPhone, which films with a teleprompter that scrolls your script, with a countdown. It’s on the web and the Mac too.
Every video you don’t post is money you don’t make.
