20 winning ad formulas
MANSCAPED could be using.
Curiosity Spike runs at 21% across your category. It doesn't appear once in your decoded ads.
Pattern Observation hooks dominate at 100% in your decoded sample. Curiosity Spike hooks, which open with intriguing questions, run at 21% across the category but don't appear in your ads. Process Teaser (behind-the-scenes content) is at 16% category-wide and also missing. Each missing hook is an audience segment that never sees your ads.
Product Demo closes 23% of category ads. You're not running it.
Talking Head B-Roll dominates your formats at 100%. Product Demo, the category's top format at 23%, doesn't appear in your sample. Missing formats like Talking Head Product, also at 23% category-wide, reach different buyer types. Each missing format is a buyer type competitors are reaching and you're not.
Competence Restoration drives 35% of your category. You're not using it.
Social Validation drives 100% of your psychology mix. Competence Restoration, the category leader at 35%, doesn't appear in your sample. Hope Projection (future transformation ads) runs at 23% category-wide and is also absent. Each psychological trigger reaches a fundamentally different buyer. Missing triggers mean entire buyer conversations you're not having.
Soft CTA appears in 41% of category ads. You use it in 0% of yours.
Offer Tease closes 100% of your ads. Soft CTA, the category's dominant close at 41%, is missing from your sample. Direct CTA runs at 32% across the category but is absent in your ads. The close is the last thing a viewer sees before deciding. Missing CTA styles mean missing the buyers whose decision-making doesn't match your current approach.

The Cost of Guessing

Creatives built on winning formulas.
Every day you're guessing is a day your competitors are scaling

The brands scaling in
Beauty & Skincare aren’t making better ads.
They’re decoding what already works, then shipping more winning creative, faster, with the formula already proven.
Every year brands spend billions producing ads. And every year 70–90% of them fail. Not because the brands aren't smart. Not because the budgets aren't big enough. But because the formula behind every winning ad has always been invisible — even to the people who made them.
Heista makes it visible.
Heista is the first platform that makes the formula inside any winning ad completely visible. The hook. The psychology. The beat structure. The exact mechanism that made someone stop scrolling and buy. Visible. In seconds.
And then it rebuilds that formula for your brand. In minutes.
We're not making ads faster.
We're making the invisible visible.
For the first time.
Frequently Asked Questions
How were MANSCAPED's ads decoded?
Heista decoded 1 of MANSCAPED's high-performing video ads into their structural formulas. Not summaries. The actual beat-by-beat architecture: hook type, psychological mechanism, visual cuts, and timing. The same intelligence a $120K/year creative strategist would extract, done in 30 seconds per ad.
What hook types does MANSCAPED use in these ads?
Their most-used hooks are Pattern Observation. But the real insight is which hooks are scaling. This report shows hook performance by ad lifespan across the decoded sample, so you can see which openers run for weeks vs. which burn out in days.
How does MANSCAPED compare to other Beauty & Skincare advertisers?
Based on the ads decoded in this report, you can see where MANSCAPED over- or under-indexes on hook types, psychology usage, format mix, and beat count relative to other Beauty & Skincare brands Heista has analyzed. These structural patterns reveal what MANSCAPED is doing differently.
Can I use MANSCAPED's ad formulas for my own brand?
That's the point. Every decoded ad produces a reusable formula: the beat structure, the psychology, the hook pattern. Sign up for Heista to load your brand, generate ready-to-shoot scripts built on MANSCAPED's proven formulas, and brief creators with shot-by-shot specs and visual direction. Same winning architecture. Your brand's voice, product, and messaging.
How often is MANSCAPED's creative intelligence updated?
This report snapshots MANSCAPED's currently live Meta and TikTok ads. Heista re-decodes the brand whenever new ads are detected in the public ad libraries. The "Last updated" date on this page reflects the most recent refresh of the structural intelligence from newly-decoded creatives.
What's the difference between this and Foreplay or MagicBrief?
Foreplay and MagicBrief show you the ad. Heista shows you the formula — the beat-by-beat psychological architecture that made it work. Hook type, psychology mechanism, scaling curve, visual DNA. Then it rebuilds that exact structure for your brand in minutes. Swipe files don't do that. You can't paste a swipe into your brief.
Can I decode my own brand's ads the same way MANSCAPED's are decoded here?
Yes. Sign up for Heista, paste any ad URL or brand handle, and get the same structural decode: hook type, psychology, beat architecture, visual DNA, and ready-to-run scripts built on your own winning formulas. The same intelligence that produced this MANSCAPED report is available for any brand.
Where does Heista source MANSCAPED's ads from?
Heista sources live-running video ads from Meta Ad Library and TikTok Creative Center — the same public ad libraries competitive teams monitor. Each ad is then reverse-engineered into its structural formula by Heista's multi-agent decode pipeline. No scraping, no private data.
